Johanna Sellman studies Arabic literature, with a particular focus on writing by Arab migrants and exiles in Europe and other diaspora settings, as well as Palestinian resistance literature and Moroccan prison writing. Her work often examines how displacement, exile, and migration are represented in contemporary Arabic-language fiction, poetry, and theater. This research would suit students interested in postcolonial literary studies, Arabic literature, and migration/diaspora studies.
Publication output over the last decade has been modest and irregular, with several years of no recorded output interspersed with one or two publications in other years, averaging fewer than one publication per year over the last five years.
