We are seeking applications for 1 three-year PhD studentship at the
University of Birmingham. (A second PhD studentship at King’s is
advertised separately.) The PhD will investigate an aspect of how
representations of animals in English have changed over time, based on
the analysis of corpus data (<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://tinyurl.com/qg8tdt7">http://tinyurl.com/qg8tdt7</a> for further

Do please draw this message to the attention of other people who you
think may be interested, including talented students approaching the end

to register for the PhD after the project start date in September.<br>
