A little about me

My name is Emily Lampert, and I am a PhD candidate at Rice University. I expect to graduate in May 2026. My dissertation, “The Virginian Atlantic: Enslaved Reproduction and the American South in the British Imagination,” is being advised by Dr. James Sidbury. For more information on my dissertation project, visit the Research page.

I am also a passionate educator and love being in the classroom. For sample syllabi and assignments, please see the Teaching page.
