Aisha Hussain oversees the Events page at Medieval and Early Modern Orients (MEMOs). Along with MEMOs researcher, Murat Öğütcü, she is also co-Editor of the MEMOs edited collection, Materialising the East in Early Modern English Drama, forthcoming from Arden Studies in Early Modern Drama (London: Bloomsbury, 2023). Aisha completed her PhD at the University of Salford. Her research interests include Turkish Otherness, fictional terror, Anglo-Ottoman commerce, gender studies, Orientalism, and, in particular, crusading and anti-crusading discourses in early modern English drama. She holds a Bachelor of Arts in English and Drama (University of Salford, 2017) and a Master of Arts in Renaissance English Literature (University of Leeds, 2018). Aisha was awarded the Pathways to Excellence Studentship by the University of Salford upon commencing her PhD studies in September 2018. Her current research investigates how the emergence of a more positive theatrical Turkish type in the works of Fulke Greville, Thomas Goffe and Roger Boyle reflects, in a shift from their contemporaries, what can be considered an anti-crusading discourse.
