Retirement of Professor Patrick O'Donovan
01 Feb 2024
Professor Patrick O’Donovan retired as Chair of French on January 31 2024 and has taken on his new role as Professor Emeritus.
His contribution to the Department, School and College has been considerable. In each case he left a legacy in terms of new structures and a culture of civility and collegiality. For us, within French, it is a significant moment, the end of an era in many respects and so we marked the event with a reception, a vin d’honneur, to acknowledge Paddy's contribution and wish him the very best.

20 Apr 2023
Prompted by his work as a doctor, and by his own experience of illness, Patrick Autréaux set out in search of what is ‘true’. Literature was his chosen route. Through writing, he attempts to find a form for the ‘flesh of the world’. And to find an answer to the question of care. If he writes, it’s in order to treat that for which there is no cure.
