Biography

I studied Hispanic Languages and Literature at the University of St Andrews, taking an MA degree there in 1977. In 1978 I came to Cork to take up a temporary full-time Assistant Lectureship in Spanish at UCC. I was made permanent in this post in 1980, promoted to College Lecturer (below the Bar) in 1983 and to College Lecturer (above the Bar) in 1999. I was responsible for the establishment of Catalan Studies as a sub-discipline within the Department in 1980 and, in 1982, of a Lectorat de català subvented by the Generalitat of Catalonia. I am a member of the Association of Hispanists of Great Britain and Ireland, the Asociación de Cervantistas, the Asociación Internacional Siglo de Oro and of the Irish Translators' and Interpreters' Association.
