A graduate of the Institute of English Studies at the University of Warsaw (2009) and the Institute of Polish Literature at the Faculty of Polish Studies, University of Warsaw (2007). In 2013, she successfully defended (with distinction) her doctoral thesis at the Faculty of Polish Studies, University of Warsaw; the thesis was a monograph on the weekly magazine *Izraelita*, which was published in 2014 by Jagiellonian University Press. From 2015 to 2018, she was the project leader of the research project ‘Polish-Jewish Literature 1861–1918’, carried out at the Faculty of Polish Studies, Jagiellonian University, as part of a Sonata grant (National Science Centre). From 2011 to 2014, she was a member of the research team “Polish-Jewish Cultural and Literary Contacts: History and the Present” as part of a professorial grant for Prof. Eugenia Prokop-Janiec (FNP Master Programme). Between 2020 and 2023, at the Faculty of History of the University of Warsaw and in collaboration with the UCL Department of Hebrew and Jewish Studies (Prof. François Guesnet), she led the project Discourses on the Body and Sexuality in Polish-Jewish Women’s Literature 1890–1918, carried out under an Opus grant (NCN).
At the T. Taube Department of Jewish Studies at the University of Wrocław, in collaboration with Professor Joanna Degler, she is carrying out the project Discourses on the Body in Jewish Culture in Polish Lands, 1880–1939, funded by an Opus grant (NCN).
She focuses primarily on nineteenth-century Polish-Jewish literature and the press, and is interested in cultural borderlands. She is currently fascinated by how the Polish-Jewish cultural borderland manifests itself in discourses on corporeality and sexuality. She remains consistently intrigued by the complex relationships between Jewish and non-Jewish social actors at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries.
