Biography

Radha is Tutor Coordinator for Interdisciplinary Foundation subjects in the Faculty of Arts.  In semester two 2009, she teaches Globalisation (100186).

Radha’s PhD thesis is a neoformalist, narratological analysis of serial narrative in recent film and television, focussing on television series and serials, film sequels and franchises.  Radha argues that the fragmentation of character in serial narrative is balanced by a highly omniscient perspective.
