Comparative Literature, PhD (S21)

Rejected via E-mail on 24 Feb 2021

Note

Apparently COVID has forced most programmes to drastically reduce their cohorts this year. Congratulations to those who got accepted! In case the following info is useful, I'm a student at Cambridge Uni, completing a Masters in Comp Lit. I hold a Liberal Arts degree from Durham Uni (UK), where I graduated as #1 of my cohort and top of the Faculty of Humanities. I spent a year studying Comp Lit at the Sorbonne. 3 languages to native speaker fluency. 1 essay published. 1 book co-written. 4 international conferences. Interests: Renaissance epic, migrations in literature, classical reception, intellectual history, philosophy, the visual arts and literature. I hope most of us are luckier next time or end up in other great unis!
