Alex Gatten

Alex Gatten is a Visiting Assistant Professor and Associate Director of First-Year Writing at the University of Connecticut. His work explores the relationship between gender and sexuality and forms of writing, including Romantic poetry and poetics, queer rhetorics, and digital writing. He is particularly interested in the ways that readers and authors gender the forms and shapes of writing and the ways that works of writing are themselves bodies and embodied. A portion of this research focusing on Leigh Hunt's use of feminine rhyme has been published in the European Romantic Review.
