• Public Engagement, Philosophy & Musical Expressions: In Conversation with Giulia LorenziLink opens in a new window [31:32]

In our last podcast episode of the year, we talk with recent Exchanges author Giulia Lorenzi (University of Warwick). We talk through her career as a philosopher and musical scholar, with particular attention to her paper on public engagement with academic research. In her paper, ‘Musical Reflections’: An experience with public engagement, Giulia explores the challenges and inspirations which arise when scholars seek to engage disparate members of the public with academic research and discourse. Citing the amazingly positive experience, she explains how it reinvigorated the joy of research for her, and how she wishes more academics could experience such encounters. We also chat about her publishing experiences with other journals, and especially the impact that editor and reviewer comments can have on authors – for better or for worse. As always, we close out our discussions with some advice for other newer authors in the early career and post graduate researcher community too.
