Luca Raimondi is a Visiting Research Fellow in the Department of English Language & Literature at King's College London, specializing in postcolonial literary studies with emphasis on Indian Ocean worlds and archipelagic memory frameworks. His research explores spatial and environmental dimensions of decolonial narratives across Caribbean, Pacific, and Atlantic regions through interdisciplinary lenses. Raimondi's scholarly focus centers on archipelagic memory as a theoretical framework for analyzing postcolonial literature, particularly examining how literary texts engage with oceanic spaces and environmental histories. His work bridges literary geography, translation studies, and world Englishes, often addressing Francophone Creole poetry and Amitav Ghosh's Ibis Trilogy through decolonial and environmental humanities perspectives. Analysis of his 15 most recent publications (2016-2024) reveals consistent engagement with spatial theory and environmental criticism, evolving toward collaborative archipelagic studies culminating in the 2024 Monsoon journal special issue. Key trends include translation of postcolonial Francophone poetry, literary geographies of virtual spaces, and critical examinations of race in Indian Ocean imaginaries. Raimondi served as Co-Investigator on the European Commission-funded IATIO project (2021-2024) examining India and the Indian Ocean during decolonization (1950s-1970s), resulting in edited volumes and journal articles advancing archipelagic imaginary research.

Rachel Mairs is Professor of Classics and Middle Eastern Studies at the University of Reading, where she serves as Research Division Leader in the Department of Classics. She previously held positions at Brown University, the University of Oxford, and New York University. Her academic work bridges classical studies with Middle Eastern history, examining cultural interactions across historical periods. Mairs completed her PhD at the University of Cambridge in 2006 with research on ethnic identity in the 'Hellenistic Far East' (Bactria-Sogdiana, Arachosia and India). Her scholarly trajectory demonstrates a consistent focus on cross-cultural encounters, evolving from ancient Greek interactions with Central Asian populations to modern colonial encounters in the Middle East. Her research interests span multilingualism, ethnicity, cultural interaction, papyrology, and epigraphy, with particular emphasis on Hellenistic Egypt, Central Asia (Bactria and India), and 19th-century Middle East. Mairs examines how Greeks interacted with 'non-Greeks' in the Hellenistic world while also exploring modern legacies of colonialism in archaeological and linguistic practices. She has made significant contributions to understanding ancient multilingualism, especially Greek-Egyptian interactions, and has extended this interest to historical language learning in the colonial Middle East. Analysis of her recent publications reveals a sophisticated interdisciplinary approach that bridges classical studies, archaeology, linguistics, and postcolonial theory. Her work demonstrates consistent thematic threads including cultural mediation, language contact, and the politics of historical representation. From her early archaeological surveys of the Hellenistic Far East to her recent studies of Arabic language pedagogy in the 19th century, Mairs maintains a critical perspective on power dynamics in cross-cultural encounters. Mairs actively contributes to academic discourse through her organization of the Hellenistic Central Asia Research Network (HCARN) and co-founding of the 'Everyday Orientalism' blog, which critically examines colonial legacies in papyrology and classics. She has served as co-editor for significant publications including the 'Corpus of Ptolemaic Inscriptions' (2021) and a special issue on 'Bi-/Multi-lingualism and the History of Language Learning and Teaching' (2019). Her collaborative research extends across international boundaries, working with colleagues in Egypt, Canada, and the United States on projects examining interpreters, dragomans, and language teachers in historical contexts. Mairs maintains an active research agenda with recent publications addressing contemporary issues in postcolonial theory while maintaining her foundational expertise in Hellenistic archaeology and epigraphy.
