Profile
Jonny Johnston is an Academic Developer/Researcher at Trinity College Dublin. His doctoral research, supervised by Professor Jürgen Barkhoff, investigated the emergence of postcolonial fiction in contemporary Switzerland. He is also interested in wider issues of cultural identity and minority writing, foreign language education, and expressions of gender in foreign language education. His research is funded by the Irish Research Council and has also attracted funding from the Swiss Federal Government, which enabled him to spend a year at the University of Basle as a visiting researcher.
