Research Interests: Brian A. Bremen is an Associate Professor in the English department, specializing in American Literature, Modernism, and Literary Theory. He is currently at work on a book that examines the ways in which contemporaneous religious and scientific thought interacted in the formation of Modern literature, tentatively called What Was Modernism (and Does It Still Matter)?
An avid surfer of the Internet since 1992, Bremen is presently archiving graphic, audio, and video material to aid in the instruction of large lecture sections of E316K: Masterworks in American Literature, and experimenting with ways in which to incorporate web-based instruction in large lecture classes. See it here.
Recent Publications: He is the author of William Carlos Williams and the Diagnostics of Culture (Oxford University Press, 1993), articles on W.E.B. DuBois, Jean Toomer, and James Joyce, and is the former editor of the William Carlos Williams Review.
Awards and Honors: Bremen has been the recipient of the Marilla D. Svinicki Burnt Orange Apple Award (2007), the Dads' Association Centennial Teaching Fellowship and the Waggener Centennial Teaching Fellowship (2005), the W. O. S. Sutherland Award for Teaching Excellence in Sophomore Literature (2003), the Texas Excellence Teaching Award for Professors in the College of Liberal Arts (2001), a Dean's Fellowship in The College of Liberal Arts (2000-2001), and the Harry Ransom Research Center Ransom Fellowship (2000-2001).
