About the Book

Mirroring, doubling, imitation, parody, intertextuality. The contributors to this volume - all postgraduate researchers at the time of writing - engage with some of these familiar words to produce articles that deal with the concept of reflections in literary and visual culture. Ranging from Italian Golden Age theatre to contemporary French literature and from Cuban film to German fiction, the twelve essays in this volume provide a fresh look at Modern Language Studies, highlighting in particular, the interdisciplinary nature of this field. On one level, the volume speaks to those exploring Modern Language Studies for the first time, for example, undergraduate students, who seek a greater understanding of the dialogue between language and culture. However, the individual essays also have the potential to attract experienced scholars either looking for new knowledge on specialist subjects, or ways of approaching research in Modern Languages. Through its central theme, Reflections: New Perspectives in Modern Languages and Cultures makes some suggestions about the way forward for Modern Language Studies.

She then undertook a Masters by Research at Durham University with Andrew M. Beresford, which she completed in autumn 2006. She is currently on a doctoral programme funded by the AHRC. Her research interests focus on the literature, history and culture of medieval Spain, particularly hagiography. Laura Campbell Laura Campbell graduated from Durham University in 2003 with a BA (Hons) in Modern European Languages (Spanish), and again in January 2006 on completing the MA in The Photographic Image.

Tracey Dawe Tracey Dawe studied German Literature, Political Science and Sociology at the Humboldt University, Berlin. After graduating in 2002, she moved to Durham to write her M.A. thesis Time and the Other in Late Nineteenth-Century German Travel Writing. Tracey is currently an AHRC-funded PhD student at Durham researching themes of identity and colonialism in German travel writing on Africa 1849-1914. Elise Hugueny-Leger Elise Hugueny-Leger is a lecturer in French at St Andrews University. Her main teaching and research interest lie around modern French literature and culture, with an emphasis on autobiography, women's writing and contemporary literature.
