Apparatus 2: Writing

Thursday and Friday: (10.00 – 14.00): Plenum discussion of the feedback, with the supervisors.

This workshop allows you to receive critique on, and if necessary workshop, advanced texts of PhD production (peer review articles, thesis chapters) with specialist reviewers and with your peers. Issues addressed can vary according to the nature of the work presented, but we will cover everything from the issues of co-authoring, writing fluency, clarity and economy. Typical exercises included re-writing to reduce word count, syntax checks, “killing your darlings”, refining the relationship between texts and footnotes and entertaining alternative models in terms of form or mediation genre.

Wednesday: Group work (you will be divided into groups of 3 and you will read and comment on two other texts. You will get specific questions to answer).

Zoom link will be sent out some days before
