- Education
This is the first of three episodes where I speak Dr Kaja Franck (https://twitter.com/kajafranck), Visiting Lecturer in English Literature and Creative Writing at the University of Hertfordshire. Throughout the three episodes, we cover a wide range of topics, including the research process, the importance of space, and the supervisory relationship while doing a PhD; how to develop your own methodology; and the importance of conferences and networks in developing your research ideas.
In this first episode, we cover:
The research process, the importance of space and 'thinking time'
Fear as part of research, and pushing yourself as a researcher
Kaja received her PhD studentship through the 'Open Graves, Open Minds' research project (@OGOMProject): https://www.opengravesopenminds.com/
Her latest research project is 'Macabre Danse' (@dansegothic) which looks at #BalletGothic. Founded by Dr Karen Graham (@kar_took) and Kate Harvey (@harveygothick).
