The mid-term evaluation is organized in two parts and starts with a 2-hour public seminar, followed by a closed meeting.
The purpose of the evaluation is to assess the progress of the PhD project at a point when it is still possible to make small or substantial changes. In general, we want to know how the candidate is doing, how much work is done, and what is left.
About the PhD candidate and her academic interests:
I am interested in Early Modern Nordic cultural history. Previously, I have worked on Renaissance humanist networks in Denmark-Norway after the Reformation. In my current project, I am writing about Danish-Norwegian history writing during the Early Enlightenment period, using theoretical perspectives from knowledge history and translation theory.
The doctoral project is supervised by Professor John Ødemark (main supervisor).
