Work-in-Progress
Work-in-Progress
The Work-in-Progress seminar was founded at the Department of English Studies in October 2006 by Prof. Péter Dávidházi to discuss unpublished scholarly articles and book chapters written by faculty members and PhD students. Nowadays, it hosts book launches and workshops for scholarly papers in preparation to keep the finger of both faculty and students on the pulse as to where the department’s instructors are in their academic work.
