Rawan Althunyan, Durham University

Rawan Althunyan is an Assistant Professor of English Literature at the College of Languages and Translation, Imam Mohammad Ibn Saud Islamic University (IMSIU), Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. She completed her PhD at Durham University, UK. Her doctoral project, “Gendered Silence in Contemporary Saudi Arabian and Nigerian Novels,” examined themes of gender, voice, narrative representation, and print culture in comparative Saudi Arabian and Nigerian literary contexts. She specialises in world literature with a focus on gender and postcolonial studies. Her work critically examines silence, power, and identity in ways that contribute to broader discussions on gender, authorship, and the dynamics of literary production and circulation in the global marketplace.
