Emma Dymock
Author · 1 book
Emma Dymock achieved her Ph.D. at the University of Edinburgh in 2008. Her primary research interest is modern Scottish Gaelic. She has worked with the poet and scholar Christopher Whyte in preparing the poems of Sorley MacLean, published in 2011. Her research in 20th century Gaelic poetry has led her to explore the field of 20th century Scottish literature more widely. She has also attempted to bring the works of Douglas Young more firmly into focus, beginning with the publication of Naething Dauntit: The Collected Poems of Douglas Young, in 2016. Dymock's other research interests include Scottish Gaelic drama and 20th century Irish poetry. She is particularly interested in modern representations of myth, symbolism and socio-political contexts.
