After completing my BA and PhD in German Studies at Swansea University, I worked as a Lektor in the English Department of the Johannes-Gutenberg-Universität Mainz before my appointment to a lectureship in German at the University of Wales Bangor in 1995. I returned to Swansea in January 2005 to teach in Media and German, with particular emphasis on Film Studies, before moving to the Media Department at Edge Hill University in February 2011, initially as a Senior Lecturer in Film and Television. I was promoted to a Chair in Film in May 2012.

Daniel Purdy is Professor of German.  He received his Ph.D. from Cornell University in 1992. Before arriving at Penn State University, he taught for nine years at Columbia University. He is currently writing a book on the “European city” as a contemporary response to globalization.  The discourse around the European city deploys architecture and urban planning to isolate Europe from immigration while maintaining world-wide economic networks.  In 1998, he published a study on fashion culture and male identity, The Tyranny of Elegance: Consumer Cosmopolitanism in the Era of Goethe, with Johns Hopkins University Press. In 2005 the University of Minnesota Press published his collection of historical writings about style, The Rise of Fashion. His latest book, On the Ruins of Babel: Architectural Metaphor in German Thought, appeared in July 2011 with Cornell University Press.

Hispanic Studies: Section Editor

I am the Hispanic Studies section editor. I am a Latin Americanist with a particular focus on Mexican film and literature. My key research interest is in the multiple representations of conflict in literature and film. This begins with the Mexican Revolution, right through to the 1968 student movement, Zapatismo, and, most recently, Narcoviolence. I’ve also written about queer representations and digital cultures (including blogging and web 2.0, such as the use of social networking sites, YouTube etc by authors and online creators). This has led me to consider the boundaries between amateur and professional creativity and (sometimes self-) curation online. You can see more in my publication and presentation sections of my website: http://www.niamhthornton.net/.
