PD Dr. Natalie Roxburgh

Natalie Roxburgh’s research explores economic and financial discourses in literary and cultural texts from the seventeenth century to the present in US and British contexts. In particular, she is interested in the way developments in political economy and public finance relate to new subjectivities as well as formal innovations in literary texts. Besides her monographs Representing Public Credit: Credible Commitment, Fiction, and the Rise of the Financial Subject and The Politics of Disinterestedness and Nineteenth-Century Literature: Browning, Eliot, Wilde, she has published and given talks on topics such as drugs and finance, political economy and aesthetics, financial mechanisms and literary forms, and financial subjectivities.
