  CHARLÈNE CRUXENT is a doctoral researcher in early modern English literature and a temporary lecturer at the University of Montpellier 3, France. Her doctoral thesis, entitled “Nicknames in Shakespeare’s World,” is supervised by Jean-Christophe Mayer and Nathalie Vienne-Guerrin.  The project explores the use of unofficial names and titles in Shakespeare’s works. By studying the use of nicknames in Shakespeare’s plays it is also possible to shed light on the ways in which naming impacts the gender of the renamed character and the genre of the play in which the new appellation is bestowed (Tragedies, Comedies, and Histories). Charlène is particularly interested in sociolinguistic structures and dynamics and her other research interests include Shakespeare, early modern language, onomastics, civilisation and food studies. She has presented her research at numerous conferences in Europe and the United States and has published articles on onomastics. She took part in the European project “New Faces: Shakespeare’s World and Present Challenges,” and is co-editor of the postgraduate academic blog Polymorphe: Carnet de Recherche ED 58.
