Vance Crowe Podcast 016: Anne M. Stiles Ph.D. The English Professor you wish you had in college

Anne M. Stiles Ph.D. is an Associate Professor at the University of Saint Louis in the English Department. She teaches students about the parts of literature that are filled with monsters, vampires and mad scientists. She has teaches undergrads and medical students in hopes that they develop a love of literature and the ability to articulate their arguments. Vance and Anne sat down to talk about Christian Science's impact on children's literature and then discussed Dracula, Jekyll and Hyde, and even the secret garden. Stiles's research explores intersections between literature, science, and religion. From her biography "[Stiles] is the author of Popular Fiction and Brain Science in the Late Nineteenth Century (Cambridge UP, 2012) and the editor of Neurology and Literature, 1866-1920 (Palgrave, 2007). She also co-edited two volumes published by Elsevier in 2013 as part of their Progress in Brain Research series."
