ABOUT SARAH BURTON
Having completed a BA (2007) and M.Litt (2009) in English Literature at Newcastle University I spent several years dabbling in various artistic projects before returning to academia. I completed my PGCE at the University of Cambridge in 2012 during which I undertook research into the notion of authority and writing in the English Literature canon. I then moved to the University of Glasgow for my MRes in Sociology and Research Methods. My ESRC-funded doctoral research investigates the value system(s) underpinning the production of knowledge in contemporary social theory/sociology. It examines ideas of power, authority and validity via a negotiation of the concepts of science and mess. Further research interests include serialism (Adorno, Schoenberg), the history of intellectual thought, citizenship, modernity, space and place, the sociology of culture and the role of the public intellectual.In addition to this I am also co-convenor of the British Sociological Association’s Postgraduate Forum and Activism in Sociology Forum.Find me on Twitter:@msfloraposte
