PhD Late-Night Interview guest John Rogers is a third year PhD student in Egyptology at Swansea University, researching local administration and non-elite perspectives during the reign of Psamtik I in the 26th Dynasty (664-610 BC). His research focuses on Psamtik I, an Egyptian king who is shown as a case study for the study of changing ideologies in the creation of kingship, in this case Psamtik I himself, through local administration and non-elite members viewpoints while using Assyrian and Anatolian sources. Further in his research, he also talks about the Saite Renaissance and the problematic inclusion of vocabulary that is unappropriated to the time in scrutiny. As in this context of Ancient Egypt, John argues his disagreement in attaching Renaissance, a term coined by art historians to describe the 15th century onwards the art and architecture in Italy and in other countries, to the Saite period (664-525 BC).
Besides presenting his research, John also shares his educational background until reaching his current studies where he had studied and failed the GCSE exams in different fields such as Engineering (his main past passion) until his decision in studying Egyptology at Swansea University. Moreover, John shares his experience in how PhD can be hard and challenging when collecting data for research, and the mentality that any student who decides to study for a PhD must have in terms of thinking on a research question which will change throughout the PhD journey, as well as debunking that PhD studies are not for clever students, but yes for anyone.
