- Double-weighted statement
- This monograph includes not only new readings of the Roman poet, Ovid, but also in-depth studies of a wide range of British, Irish, and American writers, who were some distance from my field of expertise and demanded extra background research. An especially challenging chapter was the chapter on Yoko Tawada, a Japanese writer who writes in German: the works which I was analysing had not been translated at the time I wrote the book, and so it was demanding to work in a language where I am considerably less at ease than in French and Latin.

- Additional information
- My article ‘Metamorphosis, mutability and the third wave’, which was an output for the previous REF cycle, was reworked pretty much in its entirety within Ovid’s Presence in Contemporary Women’s Writing. Elements from it appeared in the Introduction (probably less than a thousand words), while most of it appeared in Chapter 7 on Jo Shapcott. The chapter on Jo Shapcott includes new work which did not appear in the article. The article was roughly six thousand words. Ovid’s Presence in Contemporary Women’s Writing is circa 100000 words
