December's lecture features Taylor Driggers, 2024 Le Guin Feminist Science Fiction fellow. Driggers holds a PhD in English Literature from the University of Glasgow. His research explores how fantasy literature can transform our understanding of theology and queer identity by creating new visions of sexuality and religion and by exploring themes of failure. His debut book, *Queering Faith in Fantasy Literature* (Bloomsbury Academic, 2022), was a finalist for the 2023 Mythopoeic Scholarship Award in Myth and Fantasy Studies. Taylor is a part-time tutor in English Literature at the University of Glasgow, a member of the Centre for Fantasy and the Fantastic at Glasgow, and co-head of the 2024 World Science Fiction Convention’s Academic Track with Alice Langley.
