STEFAN-GEORGE-CONFERENCE
The Stefan George Conference Mailing List
The purpose of this list is to publicize and to discuss a conference
on Stefan George, which will take place at Queens' College,
Cambridge, on March 20-22, 2002. This conference, entitled 'In
Search of the Secret Germany: Stefan George, his Circle and the
Weimar Republic' aims to bring together specialists of Great
Britain, Germany and North America to re-examine the legacy of
the George Circle in German intellectual and cultural history. Peter
Hoffmann (McGill), Robert Norton (Notre Dame) and Bertram
Schefold (Frankfurt) have agreed to act as keynote speakers, but
we are still looking for participants from the U.K. (including
Ph.D.students). We are particularly (though not exclusively)
interested in papers discussing the politics of the Circle during the
interwar period, e.g. in relation to:
- German academe and 'Wissenschaft'
- Nietzsche, Nietzscheanism
- Catholicism, Judaism
- the 'voelkisch' movement
- the Conservative Revolution
- women/gender
Proposals (including a 100-word abstract of the paper and a half-
page CV) should be submitted via the list or directly to
Martin A. Ruehl
