Co-Directors
Trevor Dodman holds a Ph.D. from Boston College and specializes in war literature. His book, Shell Shock, Memory, and the Novel in the Wake of World War I, was published by Cambridge University Press in 2015, and examines British and American shell shock novels in the company of diverse texts from the World War I era, including medical studies, hospital records, regimental histories, trench newspapers, mass media accounts, and battlefield guidebooks. He is currently working on an interdisciplinary book-length project with co-director Campion that explores American and European memories of the Great War in terms of interwar history, literature, and physical memorial spaces. In addition to teaching college level courses on modernism, the novel, and war literature for more than eighteen years, he has taught courses and directed year-long thesis projects for school teachers enrolled in Hood’s M.A. in Humanities program.
Corey Campion, who holds a Ph.D. from Georgetown University, is a modern European historian specializing in Franco-German and trans-Atlantic relations. Prior to his current work with Dodman on the memory of the First World War, his past research focused on the aftermath of the Second World War and the post-1945 Allied occupation of Germany. In addition, he has written about the role of the humanities in higher education and co-edited The Synergistic Classroom: Interdisciplinary Teaching in the Small College Setting, published by Rutgers University Press in 2020. He teaches undergraduate and graduate courses on war and society, the First World War, Africa, and global empires, and along with co-director Dodman, has led students on tours of World War I battlefields and memorials in France and the United States. He has gained extensive experience working with K–12 classroom teachers through his work directing Hood’s M.A. in Humanities program, which primarily serves teachers pursuing interdisciplinary content-field training. In 2015, Campion was awarded Hood’s Graduate Teaching Excellence Award.
