Willson Center Cinema Roundtable: Dudley Andrew and French Film History Today

French cinema is among the most celebrated in the world. Film Scholar Dudley Andrew’s new French Cinema: A Very Short Introduction (Oxford UP, 2024) provides a perfect test case for understanding why filmmaking in France has been so special. Thanks to Professor Andrew’s visit to Athens and UGA, this Cinema Roundtable will discuss the research, writing, and audience for books on France and its cinematic legacy.

Congratulations to Dr. Ningxian Li!

Congratulations to Ningxian Li, who successfully defended his doctoral dissertation, entitled "V(P) copying in Spanish and Chinese" on January 26, 2024. In his dissertation, Li compares the syntax, semantics, and information structure of verb-fronting and predicate-fronting constructions in Mandarin Chinese and Spanish. The committee was impressed by the coherence and organization of his argumentation. ¡Felicitaciones, Dr. Li!
