Tamar Abramov:

I hold a PhD in Comparative Literature from Harvard University (2008) where my primary focus was late eighteenth to mid-twentieth century German, French and English literature and visual culture. The challenge motivating my research and my teaching is to articulate the extent and configurations of the subject’s aesthetic freedom – I call it his adventure – in the face of limiting, regulating discourses, primarily legal, political and scientific. I wrote on spies, on exploration and the concept of adventure and on translation and exile.

I have taught in the US and in Turkey before returning to Israel.
