Amelia Reardon (she/they) is a first year PhD student at Concordia University in Montréal. Their research focuses on the Gothic genre and the ways it serves as an interlocutor between literary analysis, cognitive literary theory, and deconstructionist theories of self and narrative. She is also interested in the overlapping application of quantum theory on both narratology (specifically in the Gothic) and cognitive understandings of consciousness.
