As #EST2025 kicks off today, I also become part of @lcsleeds.bsky.social as one of the visiting research fellows for the coming year. How nice.
See you there!

Palestine is not a symbol. Not a metaphor. Not a trending topic. It is a land with a people who sing, grieve, love, and fight for a future they are told they do not deserve. And yet, they exist. And yet, they resist. And yet, they will win.
"Qu’est-ce qui ressemble à un cauchemar, dans ce rêve ? [...]La logique de ce rêve est aussi une logique patriarcale : offrir du travail aux femmes dans la sphère publique, mais en le transformant en un ghetto qui est une extension de la famille, de la sphère privée." www.jstor.org/stable/1495299
Our paper is out in JoSTrans! Co-authored with Guanpeng, a xiangsheng performer in North America, it explores how xiangsheng grows as translation against political correctness in various political environments while still connected to its roots. Grateful to Lisa, David, Sarah, and all interviewees!
I did my PhD at Cardiff’s School of Modern Languages. It’s full of clever, committed people producing wonderful research. It runs a terrific MFL outreach programme. It’s a friendly & inclusive space for students. It’s also currently the only place I get to teach.

Now available for order, John Guillory's ON CLOSE READING considers close reading within the larger history of reading and writing as cultural techniques.
Your work is extremely interesting to me personally and academically. While I’m exploring multisensory experiences in translation, most of the works in our field focus on visuals and sounds. I’m reading Huang (2023)’s Scent of China, but I’ll follow your work coming out of this thesis!
