Erik Eklund

Erik is a doctoral student at the University of Nottingham researching the theological import of Vladimir Nabokov’s metaphysical aesthetics under the supervision of Alison Milbank and Siggy Frank. His research interests broadly centre around theological aesthetics, especially as concerns the imagination's role in metaphysical and eschatological thought. He is also very interested in creative literature as embodying its own form of metaphysical and theological discourse, as well as the revelatory function of the grotesque and other estranging techniques as they relate to theological aesthetics more generally.
