Liam Johnston-McCondach

I completed a BA in French and German at Oxford University (2014-2018) where I stayed to read for an MSt in Modern Languages (2018-2019). I also spent a year as a visiting student at Innsbruck University (2016-2017). 

My DPhil research, funded by a New College-Reynolds Scholarship, considers how the dramatic and theoretical works of the German playwright Bertolt Brecht (1898-1956) were received by the French critic and theorist Roland Barthes (1915-80). More broadly, I am interested in twentieth-century German theatre and literary theory.
