About Jane Emmins

Hi there! I'm Jane Emmins, a Junior Sophister in English Studies at Trinity College Dublin.

My Summer 1 research was concerned with representations of space, place, and utopianism in the literature of Fire Island 1940-2000. I was interested in exploring how contrasting authors handled ideas and constructions of 'gay paradise' as a means to interogate the nature of queer utopian desire(s) in America at this pivotal period in LGBTQ+ history. 

I am a lover of sacred music and a member of multiple choirs. My hobbies also include swimming in the sea and watching good television. 

Feel free to reach out to me using my contact info.
