About Me: Apart from my native tongue, Serbo-Croatian, I teach courses on literatures and cultures of Eastern and Central Europe. In addition to the concentration on the region and passion for pedagogy, my research interests include European theatre and performance art, modernism, avant-garde, art history, and the representation of the (human) body.
