Please find below details of the British and Irish World
group’s research-in-progress workshops for semester 1. We’re pleased to welcome
papers from our new colleagues Linsey and Sophie, colleagues from elsewhere in
the faculty (Matthew), and also from across the road (Sarah Campbell and Annie
Tindley). As ever, the emphasis is very much on research in development, rather
than work completed. We aim to provide a friendly and informal venue for the
discussion of continuing research.
For all three workshops we will convene outside Lipman 116
(institute of Humanities).
