I am a Dean's List student at the University of Chicago. I focus mainly in the humanities, but have taken some classes in the social sciences. In my papers I focus on close analysis of texts or works of art. I try always to elaborate my arguments with vivid and creative images and metaphors. I hope my papers may be of interest.
