Biography

Pamela Hunt joined the University of ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø in 2023. Prior to this she was a Leverhulme Early Career Research Fellow and Junior Research Fellow at Brasenose College and the Faculty of Asian and Middle Eastern Studies, University of Oxford, and a Chiang Ching-Kuo postdoctoral research fellow at the University of Oxford. 


She recevied her BA and MPhil degrees  from the University of Oxford and an MA and PhD from SOAS, University of London. 

Research areas

Pamela Hunt's research interests cover contemporary (post-reform) Chinese and Sinophone literature and film with a particular interest in masculinity and mobility.

Her first book, Rebel Men: Masculinity and Attitude in Postsocialist Chinese Literature (Hong Kong University Press, 2022) considers the representation of masculinity in post-1989 Chinese fiction and its connection to expressions of resistance and transgression. 

Her latest research project considers the trope of mobility in contemporary Chinese culture. She explores how new and renewed opportunities to move are reflected in, but have also fundamentally reshaped, the cultural field in China since Opening up and Reform.
