Faith Acker received her PhD in Renaissance Literature from the University of St Andrews in 2012. She first joined Signum in 2011, serving as a preceptor for the inaugural course “The Great Tales: Tolkien and the Epic.” Her broader literary interests include classical literature, medieval literature, and the development of the novel, although her doctoral thesis and current research are focused more specifically on Shakespeare’s poetry, eighteenth-century editors, and early readers. In her spare time, Faith enjoys reading, hiking, and cataloging books.
