SABINE DORAN
Assistant Professor, European Literature/Comparative Literature
Ph.D. in Comparative Literature, Free University of Berlin, 2004

Sabine Doran pursued her doctoral studies at Stanford University (Visiting Researcher 1996-1999) and the Free University of Berlin (Ph.D., 2004). Her work traces the relation between literature and the visual arts (film, painting, video, plastic art) in terms of the genetic and figural connections between aesthetics, politics and history. Professor Doran's main fields of specialization are in twentieth-century German literature and culture, film (German, French, Italian, Russian), media studies, art history, and Jewish studies. Her recent scholarship includes articles published on the nexus between temporality and color in the early twentieth century. She is currently revising her dissertation for publication under the title The Aesthetics of Yellow in Modern Art and Literature.

Professor Doran’s publications include: “The Temporality of Short Fiction and the Yellow Nineties” (In Currents in Short Fiction: Tale, Short Story, Novella, 2004) and “Chronos/Chroma: Yellow Figures in Proust’s La Prisonnière and Bely’s Petersburg ” (The Comparatist 28:2004)
