Areas of Research and Teaching

My research interests have included G. M. Hopkins, James Joyce, 19th and 20th century British literature and culture, Irish Studies, Hungarian translations and editions of Joyce, (literary) relations between “Western” and “Eastern” Europe; nationalism and literature, censorship and literature, religion and literature, literary semiotics and cultural typology; script and ideology.

My current research focuses on the rather elusive ways in which James Joyce’s Ulysses (1922) and Finnegans Wake (1939) reflect on various crucial political, linguistic and typographic phenomena and discourses of the European continent between the two world wars.

Areas of teaching: English proficiency (academic writing), English descriptive linguistics (mainly phonology and syntax) and

English Language Skills: Academic writing
