Hello. I am Agnes Bosanquet, an Australian academic (among other things). My field is higher education, with a focus on critical university studies and changing academic roles and identities. My disciplinary background is Cultural Studies, and I use critical theories and creative methodologies to explore questions concerning power relations, discourses and practices of inclusion and exclusion, locations of knowledge and constructions of subjectivity.

Over time, I will share more of what inspired me to start The Slow Academic. Here is where to start:

• Why slow? – on things that matter more than work
• A year in first lines – a summary post ideal for new or occasional readers
• Slow reading – what does research tells us about slow academia?

In the meantime, if you are that way inclined, you can read some of my academic work and chat with me on Twitter.

If you would like to propose a guest post, please contact me. Thank you for reading!
