Grace En-Yi Ting

Grace En-Yi Ting (Ph.D., Yale) is an Assistant Professor of Gender Studies at the University of Hong Kong. She is a trilingual queer/feminist studies scholar: a native speaker of English, heritage speaker of Mandarin, and fluent in Japanese. She is working on a book manuscript tentatively titled Minor Intimacies: Queerness, the Normative, and the Everyday in Contemporary Japan, examining femininities and female homosociality within representations of daily life by women writers in post-1980’s Japan. Her second project involves probing tensions between concepts of “queer” and “Asia” across Japanese, Sinophone, and Asian American literary discourses.
