Jesse Schotter's work explores the intersections between twentieth-century British fiction and early film theory. His book project, Hieroglyphic Modernisms: Writing and New Media in the Twentieth Century, examines how debates about the ancient medium of Egyptian hieroglyphics served to define the relationship between old media like writing and new media like film and phonography. His articles have been published in Genre, James Joyce Quarterly, and Literature/Film Quarterly.
