CELIA DAILEADER, Professor, specializes in Renaissance literature, feminist theory, and critical race studies. She is one of the contributors of the new ground-breaking Oxford edition of The Collected Works of Thomas Middleton and has been quoted in Time magazine (European edition) as an authority on Middleton's women, especially in relation to Shakespeare's. Her forthcoming essay in an anthology on violence, politics, and sexuality contrasts Middleton's and Shakespeare's treatment of the Lucrece myth (Palgrave: contract pending). Her current book-project, Other Pilgrimages: Female Travel Along the Anglo-Italian Axis, 1560-1760, was awarded a grant by FSU's Committee on Faculty Research Support.
