His research and teaching interests include Old English and Old Norse-Icelandic literature, viking studies, colonialism and anti-/de-/post-colonialism, critical race and Indigenous studies, and trans* and queer theory.
Basil is also an Associate Editor for the peer-reviewed journal Medieval Feminist Forum.
