Overview
Dan Hassler-Forest attained MA degrees in Film Studies and English Literature (cum laude) at the University of Amsterdam. Funded by the Huizinga Institute for Culture and History, he completed his doctoral work in 2010, successfully defending his dissertation on the Bush-era superhero movie genre in March 2011. His book Capitalist Superheroes: Caped Crusaders in the Neoliberal Age was published by Zero Books in December 2012. He currently works as an assistant professor of film and literature based in the English department of the University of Amsterdam, and is a frequent public lecturer on contemporary film, adaptation theory, animation and digital cinema, urban studies, and theoretical approaches to popular culture. He also teaches at Amsterdam University College. All of his work is informed by a critical approach to commodity culture and globalized capitalism, with a special focus on the political and ideological implications of fantasy genres.
