Dr. Raphael Comprone

I am a scholar in the field of Comparative Literature, and I received my Ph.D. from SUNY Buffalo. I am currently an Assistant Professor of Comparative Literature at Hampton University, and I have written two books on critical theory and literature. One book deals with the Latin American literary boom, and the other deals with the Harlem Renaissance and psychoanalytic theory. I am interested in critical theory, in the rise of populism in literary traditions and in the hybrid global intersections between cultures and languages. I am fluent in French, Chinese, Spanish and Serbian, and I am semi-fluent in Italian.
