His latest essay “Murder, Manslaughter, and Reputation: Killing in Malory’s Le Morte Darthur” appears in in Medieval and Early Modern Murder, edited by Larissa Tracy and published by Boydell Press in June 2018. He teaches courses in Arthurian literature, Medieval English literature, English literature surveys, History and Structure of the English Language, and Introduction to Fiction.  His past Introduction to Fiction classes have included the topics “Knights, Vikings, and Hobbits: Medieval Heroic Literature and the Modern Imagination” and “Not Pulp Fiction: Literary Crime, Horror, and Science Fiction.”
