Bio
Priscilla Ringrose has published in the areas of feminist theory and literary criticism (specializing in francophone literature), ethnicity, multiculturalism and contemporary Islam and new media (focusing on warblogs from the Middle East). Priscilla Ringrose's educational background is in French and Arabic Language and Literature (MA). Her PhD examined the political implications of an Arab feminist writing practice with respect to the works of the leading Algerian postcolonial and author, Assia Djebar. Her post-doctoral work related to the literature of immigration in France, specifically works authored by women with North African origins.
Priscilla Ringrose has published a book on Djebar, Assia Djebar: In dialogue with feminisms, Amsterdam: Rodopi (2006) and co-edited two volumes on religious fundamentalism with Ulrika Mårtenssen, Jennifer Bailey, and Asbjørn Dyrendal: Fundamentalism, Globalism and the Public Sphere and Fundamentalism and Communication: Culture, Media and the Public Sphere, IB Tauris 2011. She has also published two training manuals on project development, Developing transnational projects and Developing European Social Fund projects (SCVO, 1994)
Priscilla Ringrose is currently leading theNorwegian Research Council (NFR) funded projectBuying and Selling (gender) Equality: Feminized Migration and Gender Equality in Contemporary Norwayunder the program Welfare, Working life and Migration (VAM) for the period 2011-2014. The project will address the concurrence in the Norwegian context between increasing gender equality ambitions and increasing dependence on feminized migration.
Before undertaking her PhD, Priscilla Ringrose worked in translation and research at the Foreign and Commonwealth Office, London, and in the area of European Union funding (The University of Robert Gordon, Aberdeen and the Scottish Council for Voluntary Organizations, Edinburgh). Her indirect claim to fame is working as a film dialogue coach for a leading actor in the Academy award winning film Out of Africa(1985).
