 |
Neshen Isaeva-Gyunesh is a PhD candidate at Goethe University in Frankfurt am Main. She completed her master’s degree in English Studies: Literature, Language and Culture at Free University Berlin in January 2018. Her PhD research project offers a new approach to studying representations of black and Asian people in Britain in contemporary plays that discuss themes relating to characters’ mundane concerns, hopes and desires in politically and ideologically charged ordinary life. It examines the significance of affective intensities in space/place productions and approaches material and imaginary spaces and bodies as active, becoming, forming and re-forming in processes of affect circulation. |
