 - His work explores the Blue Humanities, Early Modern Literature, Ecocriticism, Shakespeare, and the Literary Theory.

2. Contents: "Kinds of Blue: Phases, Structures, and Climate Change in the Blue Humanities"
 - This lecture defines the Blue Humanities as a mode of inquiry into the relationships between humans and water on all levels, from the global ocean to water vapor in the air to the water in our bodies.
 - An opening discussion of Physical Phases and Literary Structures will explore the meanings and connotations of different kinds of water, including fresh, salt, liquid, solid, and vapor in human cultures and histories.
 - The second half of the lecture will pick up a series of narrative structures that we use to make sense of water, including the tropes of submersion, buoyancy,  and literary forms.
