ARTICLE & BLOG
I hold a PhD in English Literature, with my doctoral research focusing on The Formation of Identity in Chan Ling Yap's Selected Novels Through the Lens of Psychogeography. This interdisciplinary study delves into the intricate connections between space, identity, and narrative, exploring how urban environments influence personal and cultural identities within the Malaysian context.
My academic interests lie at the intersection of literature and urban studies. I specialise in Diasporic Malaysian Literature in English texts, with a particular focus on the representation of cities and urban experiences in historical settings. My research explores how urban landscapes shape and reflect human emotions, identities, and cultural dynamics during the pre-independence period in Malaya, utilising psychogeography as a critical framework. This perspective allows me to examine the interplay between physical spaces, memory, and narrative, uncovering new dimensions of meaning within literary works.
Beyond psychogeography, I am passionate about contemporary Malaysian literature in English. My work seeks to highlight how modern literary narratives reflect and engage with themes of identity, cultural transformation, and the dynamic interplay between tradition and modernity in a rapidly changing Malaysian society.
