International colloquium
‘The German Masculine and “the Other”’
31 October 2009, University of Edinburgh
David Hume Tower, Conference Room
George Square
Edinburgh EH8 9JX
Organiser: Frauke Matthes
The colloquium gives an account of the manifestations of masculinity in the
German literary and cultural imagination as a result of cultural exchange and
interaction as well as shifting gender perceptions throughout history. The
contributions focus on the interrelation between masculinity, ethnicity,
and ‘deviancy’ for the construction of a national and cultural self.
