Dr Afra Pujol i Campeny
At present, I hold a British Academy Postdoctoral Fellowship at the Faculty of Linguistics, Philology and Phonetics of the University of Oxford, where I also hold the position of Stipendiary Lecturer in Linguistics at St Peter’s and Hertford Colleges, and Stipendiary Lecturer in Spanish Linguistics at Oriel College.
My research explores the evolution of the Romance languages, with special interest for the Gallo and Ibero-Romance continuum, mainly touching upon Catalan and Occitan sentence structure and sociolinguistics. I am also interested in language policy for minoritised languages and curriculum development.
I love teaching in higher education, and I seize every opportunity I have to spread my enthusiasm about linguistics.
You can read more about my research interests and projects here and you can find a list of my publications and talks here.
In addition to my research and teaching activities, I am also one of the editors of the Journal of Historical Syntax and copy editor of the Journal of Catalan Studies.
