As our former Director of Communications Char Mansfield transitions to their next chapter of life in Chicago, we warmly welcome Emilio as our new Director of Communications.
Emilio E. Feijóo is a fourth year graduate student in the Comparative Literature department. He was born in Baymo, Cuba and came to the USA when he was two years old.
He received a dual Bachelor’s from Florida Gulf Coast University (FGCU), a Master’s in Ideology and Discourse Analysis from the University of Essex and a Master’s from the University of Cambridge with a focus on public intellectuals.
His research interests include poetics, rhetorical theory, French and German 19th and 20th century philosophy, and Caribbean literatures. Before pursuing his doctoral studies, he worked at a small personal injury law firm in Naples, FL as a marketing and operations executive. For the last decade, his undergraduate and graduate studies have revolved around one question: how does a theory of poetry translate into a theory of politics?
Please give Emilio a warm Trinity greeting as you see him around.
