Dear Colleague [message sent to French and Film lists; apologies for crossposting] This is to let you know that we are advertising a Readership in French, with an emphasis on French Film, in the School of Modern Languages at the University of Newcastle upon Tyne. The film and media group in French was a 'flagged research group' in the last research assessment exercise, achieving the highest possible grade, and we are looking for a high-level researcher to join us. The closing date for the post is 20 December. Doug Morrey and I work in French Cinema within the French section of the School of Modern Languages; there are a number of colleagues teaching and researching in German and Spanish cinema in the School; and there are several colleagues, including a Professor of Film Studies, in the School of English, working either in Film Studies or digital media.
