There is still time to apply for a role on our committee! We're looking for a PG Rep who will work alongside @ry_montgomery_ to plan our study day, support our PG community and contribute to our committee. A 2-year role, and one well worth applying for!

Two of my favourite colleagues + Star Wars? It was not hard to say yes to this.. though tbh we will be discussing the more historiographical aspects than actual #StarWars (I WILL be wearing a Star Wars t-shirt though!). Do come along and listen to the wonderful Chris!

This beauty of a book is out link.springer.com/book/10.1007/9…! I have a chapter in it about a fascinating object from the Historial de la Grande Guerre! Huge thanks to CR Historial and to my wonderful editors Holly Furneaux and Dr Matilda Greig

Spent nearly 9h compiling stats - the only paragraph missing in my book (which is due in less than a week 😱), but I truly believe in the utility of these threads and enjoy ending my weeks doing them!

This hits close to home. I started my blog after seeing a friend (Brazilian, black, from the favela) be fired from her funded PhD between year 2 and year 3 because they thought she wouldn't be able to finish - in a lab where I've seen European men take 7 years 😡

Oi pessoal, temos post novo no blog: alguns conceitos de gestão de projetos que você precisa conhecer durante o doutorado para conseguir se comunicar com administradores acadêmicos das agências de fomento e financiamento. …ramentasparadoutorandar.wordpress.com/2024/10/25/5-t…

academic peeps, what (part-time) jobs were you able to do/do you recommend while turning your thesis into a book and looking for an academic job? sadly NOT asking for a friend :(

Yesterday I got rejected from a job I really wanted. Today I submitted my book manuscript. I will probably get more whiplash concussions from academia than I did from rugby.

Thanks to everyone who suggested ways to make ends meet as an academic on the job market! I have started teaching Portuguese and French at a local language school and will definitely look for opportunities in the areas you suggested

Just continuing the conversation (not leaving academia!), but what are Historians and FrenchLit people out there doing?

Happy new episode day! This month A Einhaus and Prof. Catriona Pennell join us to talk about the different ways the #FWW is taught in classrooms!

Ppost novo no blog Ferramentas para Doutorandar ! O conjunto de ferramentas para doutorandar de hoje é, na verdade, algo para se pensar só no fim do doutorado: elas vão te ajudar a transformar sua tese em livro. …ramentasparadoutorandar.wordpress.com/2024/11/01/com…

This is such an important initiative to support Irish ECRs in French studies!

Thanks to my wonderful book buddy Dr Vanda Wilcox, I have a much clearer idea where this is going and am so happy to be starting it!

As someone who is currently desperately looking for a job, tonight’s FWW Studies Society (Account Inactive) PhD/ECR event exploring the UK job market was very insightful! Big thanks to @pierrepurseigle, Dr Julia Ribeiro Thomaz and Allison L. Bennett!

je sors de La Contemporaine, qui se prépare pour le vernissage de l'exposition sur les enfants en guerre. Félicitations Manon Pignot et toutes les autres ayant travaillé sur une expo malheureusement trop d'actualité

Don't walk, run! Or just click very fast

Still plenty of tickets left available to this for anyone with an interest in history, Star Wars / popular culture, and writing fictional histories
