My
duties in these posts were to lecture on English
Literature from Chaucer to the present day, specialising
most recently (at York) on the Eighteenth Century and
Romantics period papers, and on the emerging literatures
of the Caribbean and Africa. For the Centre for Southern
African Studies, I conducted lecture-seminars on all the
major components of the MA in Southern African Studies.
For both departments, I supervised MA dissertations (54)
and D.Phil theses (11).
