1. As a researcher of 20^th century French, francophone Africa and German comparative literary thoughts, as well as translation and didactics, I am driven by a passion to explore the complexities of language, culture and identity. My research and teaching focus on the intersections of literary and cultural studies, translation theory and pedagogical innovation, with the aim of fostering critical thinking, creativity and language proficiency.
