Jane Gallop is a Distinguished Professor of English and Comparative Literature at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. Much her work centers around reading Jacques Lacan's psychoanalytic theory, particularly in the context of the American and French Feminist responses to it. She has also articulated a feminist theory of sexual harrassment, produced largely through analyzing her own experiences (see Feminist Accused of Sexual Harassment, and Anecdotal Theory below.)
