Today we're joined by Dr. Neta Gordon, Professor with the Department of English Language and Literature. We talk about her passion for teaching, particularly first year courses, and her recently published book, Bearers of Risk: Writing Masculinity in Contemporary English-Canadian Short Story Cycles (McGill-Queens, 2022). We talk about her work on author Ann-Marie MacDonald, the research and publishing process, graduate student research assistantships, and literary geography. Neta also shares some insight into her past work as Associate Dean Undergraduate Student Affairs and Curriculum for the Faculty of Humanities (2018-2022) and the place of academic integrity at all stages of research and scholarship.\n\xa0\nLinks\nDr. Neta Gordon (faculty bio)\nDepartment of English Language and Literature\nBearers of Risk:\xa0Writing Masculinity in Contemporary English-Canadian Short Story Cycles (McGill-Queens, 2022)\nA Tour of Fabletown: Patterns and Plots in Bill Willingham\u2019s Fables (McFarland, 2016)\nBrock prof\u2019s new book examines Canadian masculinity (Brock News, 6 May 2022)\nEnglish prof appointed new Associate Dean in the Faculty of Humanities (Brock News, 26 June 2018)\nBrock prof\u2019s book on WWI literature challenges ideas of Canadian identity (Brock News, 26 Nov. 2014)\n\xa0\nBooks Mentioned\nFall on Your Knees by Ann-Marie MacDonald (Penguin Random House, 1997)\nFayne by Ann-Marie MacDonald (Penguin Random House, 2022)\nData Feminism by Catherine D'Ignazio and Lauren F.
