(formerly the School of English, Media and Performing Arts).
Directed by Professor Julian Murphet, it consolidates existing
research strengths in the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences, and
fosters relationships with the Faculty of the Built Environment and
the College of Fine Arts. The Centre provides national leadership
in Modernism Studies, and as a Sister Centre to the Centre for
Modernist Studies at the University of Sussex, is instrumental in
fostering an international research nexus with specializations in
all areas of Modernism Studies. The School of Arts and Media
provides a research-intensive environment in which literary,
cinematic, media, performance and creative research initiatives
interact, staffed by prominent and upcoming academics. It boasts a
vibrant and engaged postgraduate community, dynamic seminar series,
and two major research centres. The Centre is now seeking to
appoint a Postdoctoral Research Fellow in film and/or theatre
studies, to undertake a research project focusing on issues of
Modernism specific to the chosen medium. The successful candidate
will pursue a self-directed research project over the duration of
their appointment, as well as undertake other duties related to the
Centre and their research field (publishing, applying for grants,
and helping to run a major research centre).
This is a full-time position, available for a fixed term of three
years commencing in mid-2012.
