Dear All
I am just embarking on a research project on the impact of Ernst Bloch's
ideas in the GDR in both the 1950s and the 1980s. I was wondering if there
was anyone else out there working on Bloch who might be interested in
setting up some sort of discussion/research group. I have 1 post-grad who
has just started looking at this area and a second starting in October.
My interests in Bloch are not limited to the GDR and also take in his
writings on culture, aesthetics and politics in the 20s and 30s and in
particular his writings on Erbe and Utopia and his contacts with both the
Raetekommunisten as well as the Nationalbolschewisten.
If anyone is interested, or knows someone who might be interested in
collaborating on any area of Bloch studies then please get in touch with
me via this email address.
Thanks
