About the facilitator:
Paul Nadal is an interdisciplinary scholar working at the intersection of literature and economy, with a particular focus on Asian American and Philippine Anglophone literature. Reading across literary and economic history, he brings archival research to the study of the novel, developing a multiscalar reading practice that elaborates historical meaning contextually and in the form of the works themselves. Professor Nadal brings these research interests together in his current book project, "Remittances, Literary and Economic," which develops the first sustained inquiry into the convergence between novels and remittances, or the money that migrant workers send home.
