This is an exciting position for a postdoctoral researcher to shift Romantic Studies from the sublime to the ridiculous, working with the Principal Investigator to investigate an alternative collaborative ethos in the Romantic period and in Higher Education today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The postdoctoral researcher will explore possibilities for collaborative authorship with the principal investigator in different forms, including a co-authored article on this Research Question – How have Romantic-period writers and Romanticism itself been represented as ridiculous? – and an experimental duograph on The Romantic Ridiculous. The postdoctoral researcher would conduct their own research in one of the following areas:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022 Representations of the Romantic child from the nineteenth century to the present day<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022 Women\u2019s writing and\/or children\u2019s literature and aesthetics<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022 Romantic legacies, particularly in children\u2019s literature, satire\/caricature, and\/or music<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The project\u2019s Impact elements will be collaborative, edging towards co-production, building on an existing track record of collaboration with partner cultural institutions. The postdoctoral researcher and principal investigator will work with groups of A-level students in collaboration with Windermere Jetty and the Grasmere Trust to develop a travelling exhibition on \u2018Ridiculous Romantics\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
