The appointment was announced at the AAH Annual General Meeting, where Professor Barclay, who is also Director of the Fay Gale Centre in Gender Studies, was commended for the outstanding contribution she has made to the humanities discipline.

鈥淚 congratulate Professor Barclay on being elected as a Fellow of the AAH, which recognises the importance of her work,鈥� said Professor Anton Middelberg, Deputy Vice-Chancellor and Vice-President (Research) at the 成人大片.

鈥淧rofessor Barclay鈥檚 fellowship is a recognition of her commitment to research excellence in the humanities, and also demonstrates the impact on society of the work that our academic community undertakes.鈥�

Professor Barclay, who came to Australia as Postdoctoral Fellow in the Centre for the History of Emotions, was also recognised for the 鈥渆xceptionally high regard鈥� in which she is held among her peers in Australia, and internationally.

鈥淚 am deeply honoured to be received as a Fellow into the Australian Academy of the Humanities,鈥� said Professor Barclay.

鈥淲e live in a world where humanities scholarship receives very little investment and yet it provides critical insight into who we are, where we鈥檝e came from and the futures we can build upon these ideas.

鈥淏ecoming a Fellow provides a key opportunity to speak authoritatively for the humanities in Australia and to argue for its importance to our flourishing and wellbeing.鈥�

She is currently working on a project on how accounting practices shape the self during the industrial revolution, funded by an ARC Discovery Project.
