On April 24-26, the CENES Department will be hosting an online symposium, The Pasts and Futures of Queer German Studies. Organized by Dr. Kyle Frackman and Dr. Ervin Malakaj, the symposium will feature a Ziegler Lecture by Dr. Katie Sutton (Australian National University) as the keynote.
The symposium seeks to build on this exciting and extensive archive of scholarship on queer German studies by bringing together researchers at different stages of their academic careers and from different institutions to share their current research. While dedicated to contemporary approaches to queer German studies, the symposium additionally aims to facilitate discussion about the disciplinary history of queer German studies. Which developments shaped contemporary queer German studies and what futures lie ahead of it?
