New Approaches to the Eighteenth Century
Convenor: Joanna Neilly (Oxford); [log in to unmask]
This panel, although firmly rooted in eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century German culture, invites papers that consider this period from innovative new angles which are enlivening German Studies more broadly today. Categories might include race, gender, colonial desires, cosmopolitanism, Germany's position in the wider world, the 'glocal', marginalized identities, celebrity, new theoretical approaches. What does it mean to study the eighteenth century today?
The panel proposes a broad and inclusive understanding of 'eighteenth-century culture' (literature, theatre, visual culture, history and thought up until c. 1820). Comparative perspectives and work connecting this period to others are welcome.
