Barbara Cantalupo, professor of English at Penn State Lehigh Valley, mentored Dimitrios Tsokanos, a doctoral student from Spain, on his Poe thesis while he visited the Lehigh Valley campus as a scholar in residence last month.
Dimitrios Tsokanos, a doctoral candidate from the University of Almeria, located in Almeria, Spain, has been a scholar in residence at Penn State Lehigh Valley working with Barbara Cantalupo, professor of English, on Tsokanos’s thesis on the Hellenic influences in Edgar Allan Poe’s work.
Dimitrios Tsokanos took the bus to Philadelphia at the end of September so he could tour Edgar Allan Poe’s home, an historic site part of the National Park Service, and walk the streets where Poe walked.
