Dr Pamela Hunt

Position

Qualifications

BA, MPhil (Oxford)
MA, PhD (SOAS, University of London)

Research Interests

My previous research focused on representations of masculinity and rebellion in post-1989 Chinese fiction.

My current project considers the connection between literature and mobility in China since 1992. I explore how travel is represented in post-reform texts, and how the field itself is shaped by new possibilities of movement.

Background

I completed my PhD at SOAS, University of London, having obtained an MA from SOAS, and an MPhil and BA from Oxford.

From 2015-2017 I was a Chiang Ching-Kuo Postdoctoral Fellow, affiliated with the University of Oxford China Centre.

Teaching Areas

I have taught classes in modern Chinese literature, modern Chinese film, comparative literature, and translation at undergraduate and graduate levels.
