Dr CLAPP, Jeffrey Michael

I focus on digital humanities, media studies, and contemporary literature in English. I hold a PhD from the English Department of the University of California, Irvine, with a concentration in critical theory.

My previous writing has appeared or will appear in College Literature, Contemporary Literature, Critique, Life Writing, Mosaic, Partial Answers, Post45, Textual Practice, Texas Studies in Literature and Language, and elsewhere. I am the co-editor of a collection of essays entitled Security and Hospitality in Literature and Culture.

For several years, I explored the capacities and affordances of social annotation technologies for teaching literature. Results appeared in Arts and Humanities in Higher Education and English in Education.

I founded the large-scale community reading project 我城我書 / One City One Book Hong Kong and am general editor of Xi Xi City, a digital humanities project that celebrates the work of Hong Kong's most delightful writer.

My office is B3-2/F-17.
