Katja PilhujAssociate Professor of EnglishThe Citadel: The Military College of South Carolina171 Moultrie StreetCharleston, SC 29409kate.pilhuj@citadel.eduEducationPh. D., University of Miami, May 2008.Dissertation: “A Mirror for the World: Gender, Geography, and Identity in Early Modern English Drama.” My dissertation examines how playwrights formulate the identities of their female characters through language and images associated with Renaissance cartography and chorography. I argue that these writers depict women who are able to assert their personal and political agency by using the rhetoric of geography to subvert the early modern conception of the female body as a conduit of land and family lineage. Writers examined in this work include Christopher Marlowe, Elizabeth Cary, Thomas Heywood, and Margaret Cavendish. Committee: Dr. Mihoko Suzuki, dissertation director. Dr. Pamela S.
