Professor Jennifer Evans

Professor, Department of History

Dr. Jennifer Evans is a Professor in the
Department of History at Carleton University,
where she teaches contemporary German
and European history, as well as transnational
histories of love, hate, sexuality, and everyday
life.

As a researcher, she is interested in the history
of the body, gender, and sexuality, visual
culture, public memory, and the everyday.
Her most recent book, Queer Life After Fascism:
Kinship and the Queer Art of History
, questions
respectability politics in queer and trans
organizing, art, and remembrance in the late
20th and 21st century Germany and argues
for kinship as a category of historical analysis.
