Ryan K. Schroth

Ryan K. Schroth is Assistant Professor of French Studies at Wake Forest University in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, where he teaches courses in French language, culture, and literature at all levels of the program. He received his Ph.D. in French and Francophone literature from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. He specializes in North African queer cultural production, especially the work of Abdellah Taïa. His research employs affect theory and ideas of migration in order to better understand the place of the queer body in post- and neo-colonial contexts. He is currently at work on his first manuscript, tentatively titled, "Queer Feelings: Affect, Migration, and the Body in Queer Francophone Literature." Dr. Schroth is a fervent supporter of study abroad, having studied in Burkina Faso, Canada, France, Morocco, and Spain. He earned his Master’s degree in French and a Bachelor’s in French Education from Bowling Green State University in Ohio.
