'Christopher's research centers on the representation of insects in science and literature. He is particularly interested early thinking about honeybee intelligence, the concept of emotional rationalism, pest discourse, Victorian botany, Victorian entomology, Victorian Literature, anthropogenic hierarchies of animality (domestic, wild, feral), the history of animal rights, the way animals shape and are shaped by class and gender constructs, open ecologies, eugenics, emergentalism, bioethics, and scientific patriarchy. Chris is currently working on a monograph about Christine Jurine and Catherine Vicat, two marginal but very important figures in the history of apiculture.'
