I have just marked 70 paper proposals that my second-year Victorian Literature students have submitted and since the feedback I need to offer might be useful beyond my class, I’m offering it here as a sort of open tutorial. In our English Studies BA we start using secondary sources in the first year, but […]
On Friday I’ll be giving a lecture as the guest of ICGR’s 7th International Conference on Gender Research, to be celebrated at my own university, UAB. The title of my lecture is the one I’m using for this post: ‘Doing Masculinities Studies as a Feminist Woman: Aims and Gains.’ This invitation has reached me at […]

I’ll begin today by citing the post “Types of Open Access Publishing and the Benefits of Each” by Denise Mager from the blog Researcher.Life (16 August 2022), where I have found information on, precisely, the different types of open access publishing. Ready? (I’m shortening a bit the text): Are you puzzled? Me too… Let’s […]
Comenzaré hoy citando el post “Types of Open Access Publishing and the Benefits of Each” de Denise Mager del blog Researcher.Life (16 de agosto de 2022), donde he encontrado información sobre, precisamente, los diferentes tipos de publicación en acceso abierto. ¿Listos? (estoy acortando un poco el texto): ¿Estáis desconcertados? Yo también… Procedamos por partes. […]
A few weeks ago, I had the great pleasure of helping to consolidate the academic career of a brilliant young scholar, Pablo Gómez Muñoz, whose excellent volume Science Fiction Cinema in the Twenty-First Century: Transnational Futures, Cosmopolitan Concerns (Routledge, 2023), I earnestly recommend. Pablo, who has been working for some years now at the Universidad […]
Hace unas semanas, tuve el gran placer de ayudar a consolidar la carrera académica de un joven y brillante académico, Pablo Gómez Muñoz, cuyo excelente volumen Science Fiction Cinema in the Twenty-First Century: Transnational Futures, Cosmopolitan Concerns (Routledge, 2023), recomiendo encarecidamente. Pablo, que trabaja desde hace unos años en la Universidad de Zaragoza, recibió un […]
I’m returning again after a couple of previous posts (see here the more recent one and here the older one) to the matter of nonfiction, which occupies me because I’m planning to teach an elective subject if not next year, then the following. As I explained in my previous posts, I find the label nonfiction […]
Vuelvo de nuevo después de un par de entradas anteriores (ver aquí la más reciente y aquí la más antigua) al tema de la no ficción, que me ocupa porque estoy planeando enseñar una asignatura optativa si no el año que viene, entonces el siguiente. Como expliqué en mis entradas anteriores, encuentro que la etiqueta […]
My post today is particularly autobiographical but not totally disconnected from my teaching and research, if only because last year I taught an MA subject on music and men, and I have published at least a couple of articles on pop and rock music. I attended yesterday, 16 March, the concert by veteran English band […]
