Introduction
After attending a comprehensive, I studied French and German at Cambridge, spent a year in Berlin learning Ancient Greek, and then returned to Cambridge to do my PhD on the poet Friedrich Hölderlin. After that, I was college lecturer in German at Keble College, Oxford for a year, then lecturer in the German Department at Bristol for three years, and came to Queen’s in 2000. From 2002-3 I was a Fellow of the Alexander-von-Humboldt Foundation in Berlin, and in 2018-19 I held a research fellowship from the Leverhulme Trust. I am currently the Tutor for Undergraduates at Queen’s.
