- Full Bio
I am a Ph.D. candidate in Classical Studies at University of Michigan, focusing on narrative, both in Classical literature and in new media, especially video games. My interests include of course game narrative, but also narrative theory, characterization, oral and visual narratives, hypertext, interactive fiction, non-linear and multi-linear narrative. Currently, I am working on my dissertation, a comparative study of narrative construction in Homeric epic and many RPG's.
I'm an occasional contributor at www.PlaythePast.org and have my personal blog at http://adaplay.wordpress.org. You can also find me on Twitter as @adarel.
