Timau a rolau for Nick Hodgin
Uwch Ddarlithydd mewn Astudiaethau Almaeneg
Trosolwyg
Rwy'n addysgu ac yn ymchwilio astudiaethau diwylliannol ac mae gen i ddiddordeb mewn sinema ryngwladol a diwylliant gweledol, yn enwedig ffilm a diwylliant gweledol yr Almaen, a hanes diwylliannol Dwyrain yr Almaen a'i etifeddiaeth.
Mae fy ymchwil yn rhyngddisgyblaethol; Mae llawer ohono wedi canolbwyntio ar faterion ac ystyr cynrychiolaeth, ac ar y berthynas rhwng diwylliant a gwleidyddiaeth. Mae'r diddordebau thematig hyn wedi llywio cyhoeddiadau ar bynciau amrywiol, o gynrychioli Dwyrain yr Almaen mewn ffilm ôl-uno i driniaeth ddogfennol trawma, o adeiladu ac arwyddocâd dilysrwydd yn ein dealltwriaeth o gerddoriaeth blues i etifeddiaeth diwylliant gweledol Comiwnyddol ac arwyddocâd adfeilion a hiraeth.
Mae fy nghyhoeddiadau llyfrau yn cynnwys Screening the East: Heimat, Memory and Nostalgia in German Film Since 1989 (Berghahn 2011; clawr meddal 2013), a'r cyfrolau a gyd-olygwyd The GDR Remembered:Representations of the East German State er 1989 (Camden House, 2011), Andreas Dresen (Peter Lang, 2016) a Scars and Wounds: Film and Legacies of Trauma (Palgrave 2017).
Rwy'n adolygu llawysgrifau a chynigion llyfrau yn rheolaidd ar gyfer cyhoeddwyr, adolygu cymheiriaid ar gyfer cyfnodolion, yn cael gwahoddiad i ddarllenydd ar gyfer academyddion eraill, ac yn ymgynghori ar waith doethurol a cheisiadau hyrwyddo.

Ymchwil
Yn fras, mae fy niddordebau ymchwil ac ymchwil mewn astudiaethau diwylliannol a hanes diwylliannol gyda ffocws penodol (ond nid unigryw) ar fywyd diwylliannol yr Almaen. Mae fy ngwaith yn disgyn i dri phrif faes: hanes diwylliannol Dwyrain yr Almaen, ffilm a diwylliant gweledol yr Almaen, ac Astudiaethau Ffilm.
Mae gen i ddiddordeb hirsefydlog yn y GDR ac wedi ysgrifennu ar sinema Dwyrain yr Almaen, yn ymchwilio i'r ffyrdd yr oedd ffilm yn gyfrwng a ddefnyddiwyd i danseilio neu i wasanaethu'r gyfundrefn, yn enwedig mewn ffilmiau dogfen a oedd yn cynnig beirniadaeth ofalus o fywyd bob dydd, neu mewn cynrychioliadau cadarnhaol o werthoedd GDR a'i gwreiddiau.
Rwyf wedi gweithio ar gynrychioliadau o Ddwyrain yr Almaen ers uno, gan edrych yn benodol ar y ffyrdd y mae gwneuthurwyr ffilm wedi cael eu denu at orffennol problemus Dwyrain yr Almaen ac i bortreadu profiadau dwyrain yr Almaenwyr yn y presennol nad yw'n ddi-broblem, pwnc a archwiliais yn Screening the East: Heimat, Memory and Nostalgia in German Film Since 1989 (Berghahn 2011; clawr meddal 2013). Daeth The GDR Remembered, a olygwyd ar y cyd â Caroline Pearce, ag ysgolheigion a churaduron ynghyd i fyfyrio ar naratifau cymhleth gorffennol Dwyrain yr Almaen.
Mae gwaith arall wedi ymchwilio i'r rôl y mae ffilm wedi'i chwarae wrth gyfryngu trawma (gan arwain at y gyfrol a gyd-olygwyd gydag Amit Thaakkar, Scars and Wounds: Film and Legacies of Trauma (Palgrave 2017), y gwneuthurwr ffilmiau Andreas Dresen, gan arwain at y gyfrol wedi'i golygu ar y cyd â Julian Preece, Andreas Dresen (Lang 2016), yn ogystal â thraethodau ar bynciau amrywiol gan gynnwys cerddoriaeth y De Dwfn, Diwylliant cosmig Sofietaidd, hiraeth a'i amlygiad mewn diwylliant cyfoes, ffilm ddogfen, ffilmiau omnibus, a sinema Weimar.
Mae prosiectau ymchwil cyfredol yn cynnwys gwaith ar wleidyddiaeth colled, Diwylliannau Celf yn y GDR, diflaniad pensaernïaeth Dwyrain yr Almaen, ffilm ddogfennol, is-ddiwylliannau cerddoriaeth, datblygiadau byd-eang pync, a hiraeth am y Rhyfel Oer.

Bywgraffiad
I came to Cardiff in 2017 having previously taught at Sheffield, where I completed my PhD, Lancaster and Manchester.
I was among the first group of scholars to research East German cinema (DEFA) and spent some years living in Dresden, where I lived a double life - teaching English in businesses in the city and local region, and researching East German film and culture.
Meysydd goruchwyliaeth
I would be very happy to supervise students in the areas of:
- German cinema (especially DEFA, German documentary culture, Autorenkino, experimental filmmaking)
- East German cultural history (especially in areas such as youth cultures, music, cinema, architecture)
- German visual culture (especially modern and contemporary visual culture - graphic art, graffiti, etc)
- International and transnational filmmaking
- Cold War culture (especially in the German context)
- Berlin in the twentieth and twenty-first century
- Trauma and its representation on film
- Nostalgia (particularly in the context of post-communism)
- Ruins (particularly in the context of post-communism)
