There are places for approximately thirty students to attend. Any students with research interests in Russian and world literature are welcome.

The workshops will take place at the following times:

What is World Literature? Responses from Soviet Russia

This one-day workshop aims to develop the research training skills of doctoral researchers working with literary texts in Russian and Eastern European studies.

It has been organized as part of a programme of training events this autumn which is supported by the CEELBAS Centre for Doctoral Training.

The event will provide a valuable networking opportunity for young scholars to make new contacts within this field. 

Before the programme opens with a masterclass led by Professor Galin Tihanov, the attendees are invited for a sandwich lunch with tea and coffee at 1pm.

The masterclass will be followed by three further short presentations on the theme of 'World Literature from a Russian Perspective' or 'Russian Literature in the Context of World Literature' from current PhD students working in related fields.

Academic Publishing Workshop

A workshop on academic publishing will be led by Professor Wendy Bracewell (UCL SSEES) and Dr Barbara Wyllie (editorial secretary of the Slavonic and East European Review).

The number of places for both workshops is limited. To register please contact CEELBAS Administrator Anna Tremain.
