Full research profile

Research and Teaching

I have now focused my research on the Golden Age comedia, especially Calderón's cloak and dagger plays, and Spanish cinema, especially the development of narrative techniques, narratology.

In my time I have had to teach most aspects of a Spanish degree, from language for beginners to final year specialised translation, from the history of the language to contemporary cinema. At present I contribute to all core undergraduate Spanish modules, and to the following:

  • SP5124/26 Spanish Cinema (co-ordinator)
  • SP5201 Patterns in Hispanic Literature and Film
  • ML5105 Europe and America: dialogues and identity formation in text, film and theory
  • ML5201 Film and Issues of European Identity (co-ordinator)

Annually, I supervise PG MLitt/Phil dissertations on Golden Age Literature and Cinema, and currently one PhD: J R Holmes/Rutherford "Sites of Struggle: Representations of Family in Spanish Cinema (1996-2004)"
