- PhD Candidate in Scottish Literature, University of Glasgow
AHRC-funded PhD student in Scottish Literature, writing about the cultural afterlife of Mary, Queen of Scots in Scotland.
A character permanently "stranded in the present" within Scottish culture, Mary, Queen of Scots has continued to attract intense interest and controversy in both academic and popular contexts since her execution in 1587. My PhD project explores Mary's significance as a figure of cultural memory in twentieth- and twenty-first-century Scottish literature and culture, focusing on Mary's embodiment of shifting perspectives on gender, religion, and nation as these issues uniquely intersect within her memorialisation.
My thesis is titled: "Mary whom even her killers long to love: The Queen of Scots as a Figure of Cultural Memory in Nineteenth-Century Scottish Literature"
MPhil on Mary, Queen of Scots as a figure of cultural memory in nineteenth-century Scottish literature (2024-2025).
