Marc Rowley
I hold a BA.Hons. in French Studies (Drama Minor) from the University of Waterloo (2010), and moved to Montréal in January 2011 with the eventual aim of pursuing graduate studies. I entered the MA program in Littératures francophones et résonances médiatiques in September 2012, and have decided to focus my research on the social critique capacity of Twitter: specifically, to compare and contrast this type of critique with that found in literary forms throughout the 19th and 20th centuries, such as the comedic novel. Outside of school, my interests include theatre (both creation and consumption), writing (mostly essays, with some creative projects as well), eating locally, and lots (lots) of reading (from Tolkein to Rowling to Houllebecq)
