Dr. Andrew M. Richmond is an Associate Professor of Medieval British Literature at Southern Connecticut State University, where he teaches courses on early British literature, ecocriticism, and composition. His research concentrates on representations of landscapes, waterscapes, and the environment in late medieval British romances and ballads, as well as the poetry of Geoffrey Chaucer and John Gower.
