Dr Sadler’s research focuses principally on translated and multi-lingual narratives on social media, with an emphasis on news mediation by citizens and activists in Egypt and the broader Arab world. His work explores the construction of geographically and culturally distant events through fragmented storytelling practices and draws on diverse theoretical interests including: socio-narrative and narratological theory; media theory; critical discourse analysis; post-colonial theory; hermeneutics and critical theory.
