Supervision
I supervise MA dissertations on all topics related to my research on literature and democracy. I’m particularly interested in dissertations focussing on explorations such as
- responsibilities and roles of publishers and cultural intermediaries
- the impact of fiction/non-fiction publishing on the narration of trauma and fostering solidarity
- ideology of censorship and book banning, and its impact on culture and democracy
- issues of participation and identity in literary discourse
Further, I supervise dissertations that explore issues of publishing and authorship in the humanities, or question of access and in-/equality in scholarly communication more generally.
University Lectures
Besides temporary positions, I give individual university lectures on the following topics:
