Biography

Amanda Haste is an Anglo-French independent researcher and freelance academic translator who also taught at Aix-Marseille University, France from 2015 to 2023. Her research interests include music in contemporary religious life, and identity construction through music and language. As a musician/musicologist she holds teaching and performance diplomas from London conservatoires and a PhD from the University of Bristol for her research into the role of music in twenty-first-century monasticism. As a translator she holds the Dip.Trans.(IoLET), is a Chartered Linguist, and is a Qualified Member of the Institute of Translation and Interpreting.

Dr Haste's monograph Music and Identity in Twenty-First-Century Monasticism was published by Routledge in 2023, and she co-edited (with Linda Baines) the NCIS Guide for Independent Scholars (2024) published by the National Coalition of Independent Scholars.
