Dr. Ian Copestake

Managing Editor

I currently on the teaching staff of the Department of British Culture, University of Bamberg, Germany, where I teach an American Culture seminar.

I offer proofreading and copy-editing services for academics publishing in English across a range of subject areas. I have published three volumes of essays as an editor and wish to help academics with projects they intend to publish as articles, book chapters or as part of their Habilitation or doctoral thesis research.

Williams Society Secretary/Treasurer

I teach literature classes for advanced language students and run four courses based on discussions of contemporary novels, modern poetry and American short-stories.

Visitors to my site www.fineartcopy.net can commission a hand painted made-to-order copy of their favourite works of art. I specialize in oil on canvas and pastel on board reproductions and I work to a very high standard. Painting and drawing has been a passion of mine from a young age and I have continued to paint in tandem with my career as an academic.

Taught for 5 years in the American Studies department as a research fellow teaching two classes per semester on topics such as American poetry, contemporary fiction, American culture.
