A specialist in modern British cultural history, Dr. Barczewski has been at Clemson since 1996.  Her book, Titanic: A Night Remembered, was published by Palgrave Macmillan/Hambledon and London in 2004; it explores the memory of the Titanic disaster on both sides of the Atlantic. She is also the author of Myth and National Identity in Nineteenth-Century Britain: The Legends of King Arthur and Robin Hood (Oxford, 2000).  Her current research concerns the evolving reputations of the British Antarctic explorers Robert Falcon Scott and Ernest Shackleton, specifically regarding changing conceptions of heroism and masculinity in Britain over the course of the twentieth century.  Her book on this subject will be published by Hambledon and London in 2006.  In 2003, Dr. Barczewski won the Gentry Award, the college's highest honor for outstanding teaching in the humanities.
