Criminal Minds in German Studies Network (CriMeNet for short)
We are setting up a network for Germanists with an interest in the genre of
crime. A directory of members and their research interests will be hosted by
German in the Department of Modern Languages at Swansea University, Wales.
If you would like to join – no matter whether your research interest in crime is
large or small – please contact Katharina Hall ([log in to unmask]) with
your details in the following format:
Name and affiliation (uni, college, school, other, retired etc.)
Interests (50 word maximum)
Email (optional)
Webpage (optional)
Example entry:
Katharina Hall, Swansea University, UK
Interests: Representations of National Socialism and the legacy of the Nazi era
in German and Anglo-American crime fiction, TV and film; conceptualisations of
history, memory, guilt and justice in post-1945 texts; the figure of the
perpetrator as detective; Scandinavian and Japanese crime fiction.

We have chosen the shorter form CriMeNet so that in future we could have a
CriMeNet in German Studies
CriMeNet in French Studies
CriMeNet in Italian Studies and so on
or simply a CriMeNet directory for crime researchers in all areas and disciplines
(like all good master-criminals, we aim for world domination).
Please feel free to forward this message to anyone not on the list that might
be interested.
With best wishes
