Dr Ramisha Rafique completed her PhD at Nottingham Trent University, where her creative-critical doctoral thesis, funded by the NTU Vice Chancellor Scholarship, explored the ontology of the postcolonial flâneuse and decolonisation in British Muslim women’s writing. Her work combines critical and creative practices, contributing to interdisciplinary approaches within postcolonial and flânerie studies. Her research specialisms include Postcolonial Literature, Creative Writing (Poetry), Flânerie, Gendered Islamophobia and Contemporary British Muslim Women’s Writing. Her work has been published in the Journal of Postcolonial Writing (2023), The Palgrave Handbook of Gendered Islamophobia (2024) and Literary Encyclopedia (2023). Her poetry pamphlet, The Postcolonial Flâneuse (2025), is published by Five Leaves Publications.
