Professional Profile
Karlyn Crowley is an assistant professor of English and director of women’s and gender studies at St. Norbert College.
Karlyn’s scholarship focuses on gender, religion, and American literature and culture. Currently her project examines why so many women are interested in New Age culture rather than civic feminist expression. Her other work investigates religion and women’s popular fiction of the nineteenth-century United States. She contends that in texts by more marginal, but popular 19th century authors such as Margaret Deland, Elizabeth Stuart Phelps, Augusta Evans and others, women use religion to create new identities and social spaces, ones neither public nor entirely private.
