Seeking assistant, associate, and full professors who would be willing to serve as mentors to comparatists at all stages: graduate students who would like readers for their dissertation chapters & job application materials, post-docs seeking employment and help navigating book-publishing, and undergraduates seeking suggestions on how, whether, and where to apply to graduate school. If you are willing to serve in this capacity, please post here what you’re willing to do: speak by phone, read a chapter, do a mock interview, etc. Be sure to mention your own interests so that respondents will know whether you’d make an appropriate reader for their work.

I’m willing to mentor in any of the ways listed above: by reading a chapter, corresponding by email, or speaking by phone. My name is Rivi Handler-Spitz, and I’m an associate professor of Chinese in the Asian Languages and Cultures department at Macalester College in Minnesota. My work compares early modern Chinese and European essayistic prose. Other interests include: book history, the history of reading, script reform, the history of education, and all manner of East-West comparisons.
