Doris Garraway Doris Garraway, Assistant Professor of French, Ph.D. Duke University. Her research and teaching interests include French Caribbean and Haitian literature and historiography, the Haitian Revolution in literature, and early modern French travel literature. Her book, The Libertine Colony: Creolization in the Early French Caribbean (Duke University Press, 2005), examines narratives, histories and fictions of seventeenth- and eighteenth-century French slave societies, with particular emphasis on the role of gender and sexuality in social relations of domination and constructions of race. Her edited volume, Tree of Liberty: Cultural Legacies of the Haitian Revolution in the Atlantic World, is forthcoming from the University of Virginia Press in early 2008. Her articles on colonial and postcolonial Caribbean writing have appeared in Callalou, Eighteenth-Century Studies, and Studies in Voltaire and the Eighteenth Century. She is a past recipient of a fellowship from Northwestern's Kaplan Center for the Humanities, and will be an affiliate at the Center in 2007-08. Professor Garraway has delivered invited lectures at Duke University, the University of Iowa, the University of Michigan, Penn State University, and the University of Washington, and she regularly presents papers at conferences and colloquia around the country. In October 2004 she organized an international symposium at Northwestern entitled "The Haitian Revolution: History, Memory, Representation." Professor Garraway has been Director of Graduate Studies in the Department of French and Italian since 2005.
