She holds a secondary a position as Professor Extraordinaire at the University of Stellenbosch and has been a Visiting Professor at Brown University and a Mellon Distinguished Lecturer at the University of the Witwatersrand. For many years, she served as Director of Penn’s Women’s Studies Program and the Alice Paul Center for Research on Women, Gender, and Sexuality. Her scholarly interests lie in modernism and global modernities, South African literature and cultural studies, modern American literature (especially of the 1930s), contemporary cinema, and the novel as genre. In 2005 she received the Lindback Award for Distinguished Teaching, Penn’s highest teaching award, and, in 2010, the SAS Award for Distinguished Teaching in the School of Liberal and Professional Studies.

职业经历

Rita Barnard is the author of The Great Depression and the Culture of Abundance (Cambridge University Press, 1995) and Apartheid and Beyond: South African Writers and the Politics of Place (Oxford University Press, 2006) and the editor of The Cambridge Companion to Nelson Mandela (Cambridge University Press, 2014). She is close to completing her third monograph, South African Modernisms: Language, Theory, Things and is co-editing a collection of essays entitled States of Transition: The Temporalities of South African Writing with Andrew van der Vlies. Her published essays, which cover a wide range of subjects in the broad field of twentieth-century literature and culture, have appeared in journals like American Literature, American Literary History, Cultural Studies, Contemporary Literature, Interventions, Modern Fiction Studies, Novel: A Forum on Fiction, and Research in African Literatures. Barnard is also a contributor to several edited collections, including Senses of Culture, Writing South Africa, The Big Bad Bitterkomix Handbook, Beautiful Ugly: African and Diaspora Aesthetics, Modernism and Colonialism, and the Cambridge Companion to American Modernism, for which she wrote the chapter on modern American fiction. Rita Barnard has served on the editorial boards of Contemporary Literature, Novel: A Forum on Fiction, PMLA, Research in African Literatures, Tydskrif vir Letterkunde/Journal of Literary Studies, and English Studies in Africa. With Grant Farred, she co-edited After the Thrill is Gone: Ten Years of Democracy in South Africa, a special issue of South Atlantic Quarterly. She has just stepped down as editor of Safundi: The Journal of South African and American Studies, but continues to serve of the board of this innovative journal. (Please see our website: http://www.safundi.com). In an earlier life, Barnard was signed with Mulligans Models in Cape Town and featured in many print and TV commercials. Perhaps as a result, she retains an abiding critical interest in fashion, consumerism, and mass-mediated culture. In a simultaneous but alternative universe she is currently a graduate student in the final year of a Ph.D. Program in Creative Writing at the University of Pretoria, under the direction of Professor David Medalie.
