Dr. Bynum received his Ph.D. in Spanish literature from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. His areas of scholarly interest include Romanticism, 19th century literature—with special emphasis on poetry—and art history. His book, The Romantic Imagination in the Works of Gustavo Adolfo Bécquer, was published by UNC Press. In recent years he has pursued interdisciplinary connections both as a member of the American Conference on Romanticism and as a regular participant in the Ideas and Culture core courses here at Converse. Since 1992, he has served as Director of Advising for the College, and maintains membership in NACADA, the national advising organization. Dr. Bynum teaches all levels of Spanish language and a variety of advanced literature courses in which the discussion is sure to include art, history, and philosophy.
