Alistair Fox
Alistair Graeme Fox (born 1948 in Richmond, New Zealand)[1] currently holds the title of Professor Emeritus at the University of Otago, Dunedin, New Zealand.[2] Until his retirement in 2013, he held a Personal Chair in English Literature at this same university,[3] where he also served as Pro-Vice Chancellor, Division of Humanities.[4][5] His honors include the award of a Nuffield Visiting Fellowship, Claire Hall, Cambridge (1980-1981)[6] and an appointment as Visiting Fellow, All Souls College, Oxford (1987-1988).[7] Initially known for his scholarship on English Tudor Literature,[8] since 2008 he has turned to topics addressing New Zealand literature and culture, cinema studies,[9] and theories of literary and cinematic representation.[10] He has also translated a number of significant scholarly works from French into English,[11] [12][13]most recently Truffaut on Cinema, ed. Anne Gillain (Bloomington, IN: Indiana University Press, 2016).[14][15]
His major published works have been highly praised within an international context, starting in 1983, when Sir Geoffrey Elton, then Regius Professor of Modern History at Clare College Cambridge, assessed Thomas More: History and Providence, concluding: ". . . this excellent book, which adds to the virtues of its substance a lucidity and readability not commonly found among literary or historical studies, provides the first solid basis on which further work can be undertaken. It will not surprise me if that further work will do little more than demonstrate the value of Dr. Fox's remarkable insights."[16]Czech reviewer Jana Bébarová describes Fox's 2011 monograph Jane Campion: Authorship and Personal Cinema as "a remarkable and enriching perspective on the unique work of the most important woman director of her time,"[17] a view shared by Michel Ciment, editor of the French film journal Positif, who characterizes the volume as "remarquable."[18]
