Comparative Literature
Kris Trujillo specializes in medieval Christian mysticism, Latinx literature, and queer theory. His writing has appeared in English Language Notes, postmedieval, and Representations. Currently, he is working on two book projects. The first examines the significance of the Divine Office to the genre of mystical poetry. The second tracks the concept of ecstasy from early Christianity to contemporary queer theory. Trujillo is Assistant Professor in the Department of Comparative Literature at the University of Chicago.
