“Now I was become…a Woman of Business”: The Unstable Ontology of Value in Daniel Defoe’s Roxana
Dylan is a final year Honours student at the National University of Singapore, majoring in English Literature and minoring in Art History. His honours thesis focuses on Web-based literary practices and social media horror writing, and how new forms of digital reading impact both the ontologies of online texts and their interactors. He intends to pursue his PhD and a career in academia researching the intersections between literature, new media, and cybernetics towards an understanding of their joint implications for a digital posthumanism. He is also the Editor-in-Chief for Margins, NUS’s undergraduate literary journal.
