Lecturer Above The Bar, School of Law, University of Galway

Lecturer Above The Bar, School of Law, University of Galway I specialise in the political theory of constitutional law, with a focus on issues around law and religion, Church and State, judicial power, republicanism, French political thought and the history of political thought. My latest book is Rousseau's Constitutionalism: Austerity and Republican Freedom (Hart, 2017). I am also author (with Tom Hickey of) A Political Theory of the Irish Constitution (Manchester University Press, 2015), and of Religion, Law and the Irish State (Clarus, 2012). I have also authored over thirty peer-reviewed journal articles on various issues in legal and political theory as well as constitutional law. I studied Law and French as an undergraduate and received a PhD from University College Cork in 2010. My thesis examined how jurisdictions committed to different concepts of constitutional secularism order the competing social claims on the value of religious freedom in schools. Subsequently I worked as a Lecturer in DCU until 2012, and in University College Dublin until 2014. I joined NUI Galway in February 2014.

Senior Lecturer, Programme Lead for English Literature and English Literature with Drama Studies, University of Liverpool

Senior Lecturer, Programme Lead for English Literature and English Literature with Drama Studies, University of Liverpool My main area of teaching and research / scholarship is Renaissance drama / Shakespeare, and my work on Shakespeare and Early Modern theatre has a pedagogical basis: I worked for four years on the editorial team of the RSC Complete Works (2008) and the individual volumes of the plays (2008-2012), producing chapters aimed at students for the latter, and I recently contributed a chapter on 'Richard II Learning and Teaching Resources: Text, Context and Performance' to Arden Critical Reader. In addition to university-based teaching, I have worked in conjunction with the Everyman&Playhouse theatres in Liverpool, contributing to their outreach and wider participation events, and have been involved in designing a scheme of work aimed at contextualising Shakespeare in the lives of year 7 pupils for the Shakespeare North 'Our Place' project. I also have interests in genre-based literature studies, specifically in crime fiction and children's literature and I occasionally manage to combine these with each other, and / or with drama, considering the ways in which detective fiction makes use of models and narratives of Renaissance drama, for example, or their shared concerns with the metatheatrical/metatextual. My current focus, in collaboration with my colleague Dr Katie Knowles, looks at the ways in which children's literature represents the theatre and the child performer.
