معرفی
Professor Bryony Randall is Professor of Modernist Literature in the Department of English Literature at the University of Glasgow's College of Arts. She is a leading scholar in modernist studies with expertise in narrative fiction, textual editing, and representations of everyday life, holding significant editorial roles for major scholarly editions of Virginia Woolf and Dorothy Richardson.
Her research spans:
- Modernist narrative fiction (Virginia Woolf, Dorothy Richardson, Gertrude Stein)
- Textual editing methodologies and collaborative editorial practices
- Everyday life and temporal structures in literature
- Feminist and materialist theoretical approaches
- Working women writers (1880-1920)
- One-day novels in 20th-21st century literature
Analysis of her publication record reveals consistent focus on modernist temporalities and editorial theory, with increasing interdisciplinary collaboration since 2015—particularly with visual artists on projects like The Oak Tree inspired by Woolf's Orlando. Her work demonstrates evolving emphasis from textual criticism toward material culture studies and spatial theory.
Professor Randall has secured major AHRC funding for the 'New Modernist Editing' network and 'Imprints of the New Modernist Editing' impact project. She co-directs Glasgow's Textual Editing Lab and supervises postgraduate researchers including:
- Imogen Dobson: Sex Work and the City: Female Sex Work and Urban Spatiality
- Hannah Speed: Women’s life-writing and the suffrage campaign in Scotland
She co-founded the Scottish Network of Modernist Studies and serves on the editorial board of Pilgrimages: the journal of Dorothy Richardson studies, maintaining active leadership in international modernist scholarship communities.
