Biography

Background

Robert is a recent graduate of the University of Edinburgh where his doctoral thesis focused on the storytelling traditions of Scotland’s Traveller communities. He is currently embarking on a Postdoctoral Fellowship at the University of Edinburgh, continuing his engagement with the rich oral traditions of Scotland’s Travellers.

His research traces the social and cultural development of Scotland's Traveller communities, using this context to interrogate Traveller storytelling traditions and reveal unique Scottish cultural identities that are currently underrepresented in the scholarship and literature surrounding the communities.
