Articles about 'Preti Taneja'

Dr Preti Taneja first read King Lear as a teenager and immediately saw parallels with the Indian culture of her parents’ homeland. Almost 20 years later, she spent six months exploring the subcontinent, tracing the themes that make Shakespeare’s exploration of humanity so compelling, and researching a novel that re-imagines her favourite play. 

Cambridge academic Preti Taneja is named as one of the AHRC/BBC Radio 3’s New Generation Thinkers.
