Matthieu Raillard joined the faculty at Lewis & Clark in 2004, after completing a PhD at the University of Virginia. He specializes in Peninsular Literature of the 18th and 19th Centuries. His main research interests fan out around the relationship between rhetorical authority and the birth of professional authorship in the Spanish 18th century, as well as the erotic literature of the Enlightenment. Publications include collaborations on the recently published Cambridge History of Spanish Literature and Diccionario de cr'ticos literarios del Siglo XIX. He is currently working on a book-length manuscript on theories of narrative authority in the Spanish Enlightenment, as well as articles on erotic poetry and Mariano José de Larra. His teaching experience covers all levels of language and literature instruction, as well as directing undergraduate independent study courses.
