A graduate of DePauw, Carrie F. Klaus earned an M.A. and Ph.D. in French from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. She is the recipient of a Bourse Chateaubriand and the author of an English-language translation of Jeanne de Jussie's Short Chronicle (forthcoming in 2006 from the University of Chicago Press), an article on Jussie ("Architecture and Sexual Identity: Jeanne de Jussie's Narrative of the Reformation of Geneva", Feminist Studies 29:2 [2003]: 279-97), and other short articles and reviews. Her current research project is an investigation of the works of pre-Revolutionary writer Cornélie Wouters, Baroness of Vasse (Wasse).
