Joseph C. Murphy received his PhD in English from the University of Pennsylvania, where he wrote a dissertation on the synergy between world’s fairs and American literary culture in the later nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. His teaching and research delineate a crossroads between American literature, visual culture, and allegorical traditions, and his publications focus on a number of writers, including Benjamin Franklin, Walt Whitman, Flannery O’Connor, Cormac McCarthy, and especially Willa Cather. He is currently writing a book exploring Cather’s modernism as a distillation of turn-of-the-century cultures of spectacle, e.g., Wagnerism, Indian pageants, art museums, urban development, minstrelsy, and religious ritual. Beginning in 2015, he will contribute the annual review of Cather criticism to American Literary Scholarship (Duke UP). His most recent project is a study of Venice in the American literary imagination.

John Basourakos received his Ph.D. in Interdisciplinary Humanities Studies from Concordia University in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Dr. Basourakos has taught graduate and undergraduate courses in theatre history, cultural studies, literary theory, and academic writing in several countries and in different cultural contexts. He has published several articles on contemporary women playwrights, like Caryl Churchill, Pam Gems, Nawal El Saadawi, and Emily Mann, with a focus on how each playwright undertakes a critique of patriarchal ideologies of domination and normalization through their plays, as well as how they each examine conventional discourses about gender and sexuality as sites of struggles. He is currently doing research on how contemporary American male playwrights, like August Wilson, Neil LaBute, Donald Margulies, and David Mamet, explore issues of a “troubled American manhood” in their plays, and thus persist to interrogate the concept of masculinity, and of “American masculinity,” in particular, as culturally constructed and reproduced.

魏亦淳於2011年自英國華威大學取得博士學位。研究領域以自主學習以及學習策略為主，特別隊混合式學習環境有興趣。他對於語言學習者在學習過程中心理素質有興趣，如自我認同與情意因素等主題。而這些研究主題也反映在近年來在大學部與研究所中所教授的課程裡，如英語教學與兒童文學、網路學習社群:理論與實踐、語言教室中的心理學。從2006年以來他參加長福國小英語營的服務學習計畫，也開始研究學生參與者在服務學習中的自我認同轉換。他指導的碩士論文主題包括聽力策略、字彙學習策略與翻轉教室。
