Professor
Furman-Adams' research focuses primarily
on Milton's Paradise Lost as an illustrated
poem--a subject that requires a focus on
feminist theory and theology, as well as on
the relationship between art and literature.
Her publications--many written
collaboratively with Professor Virginia Tufte of USC--have dealt mainly with this
subject, and have appeared in such journals
as Philological Quarterly, Huntington
Library Quarterly, Milton Quarterly, and
Milton Studies. She was also co-editor of
Renaissance Rereadings: Intertext and
Context (U of Illinois P, 1988) and Riven
Unities: Authority and Experience, Self and
Other in Milton's Poetry (Milton Studies 28,
U of Pittsburgh P, 1992). She and Professor Tufte are working on two book-length studies
on Milton and the nearly 200 artists who
have illustrated his poetry since the
seventeenth century: Visualizing Paradise
Lost: Artists as Interpreters, which surveys
the long history of Milton illustration, and
Re-Visions: Women Artists Reading Paradise
Lost. |
