Donna Richardson is a graduate of Swarthmore College (B.A.), University of Michigan (M.A. in Education), and Northwestern University (M.A. and Ph.D. in English literature). All this background in English has failed to convert her from being an unreconstructed generalist interested in other languages (Russian, Chinese, and French), other literatures (Russian and Greek), science (geology and biology), philosophy (especially epistemology and the philosophy of science), and the arts (music/opera and art/folk art). She teaches, among other things, the Literature in History II survey, courses in Romanticism and the Godwins/Shelleys, European Romanticism (including War and Peace whenever possible), cross-cultural Romanticism (e.g. Poe, Keats, and Baudelaire), writing for the freelance market, Victorian poetry, and mythology (with an emphasis on Greek, Celtic, and Teutonic).
