News about Denise Gigante

Here is the latest about Denise Gigante:

Denise Gigante has been a Professor of English at Stanford University for several years. Her book, "The Keats Brothers: The Life of John and George", published by Harvard University Press this past year, was chosen by The New York Times as one of the 100 Notable books for 2011 and as an Editor's Choice by The New York Times Book Review. In Salon,
Carmela Ciuraru called it "a major accomplishment, one that will surely influence biographies of Keats yet to come," and the Australian Book Review proclaimed it "a welcome excursion from otherwise familiar terrain of biographical scholarship on Keats." It received positive reviews in the Times Higher Education, the The Independent, the Literary
Review, and among other electronic media, "Newstalk" Ireland andStanford's own KZSU ("Entitled Opinions" and "Spotlight On") featured programs about _The Keats Brothers_. Professor Gigante gave talks from the book at Oxford University, Cambridge University, Princeton University, The Keats House in Hampstead, The Keats-Shelley Memorial House in Rome, a branch of The New York Public Library, and at bookstores from Barnes & Noble to Books, Inc., among others.  She served as Faculty-in-Residence for the Stanford's Overseas Program in Oxford this past winter quarter, teaching undergraduate
seminars in Romantic poetry, and in the spring (while teaching a graduate seminar on Milton and Blake and an undergraduate lecture course on Poetry and Poetics), she won a John Simon Guggenheim Fellowship to work on her current book project, "The Book Madness: A Story of Book Collectors in America".
