Abstract / short description:
In the course of this Momentum project, the applicant will reorientate her professorship on German Philology and Modern German Literature
towards globality- and diversity oriented literary studies. This is in accordance with the University of Tübingen's strategic orientation towards "Global Encounters" for the humanities and social sciences. German Literary Studies are currently oriented towards literary history and primarily research focuses mainly on a national-philologically oriented canon. The new focus on globality and diversity will increase visibility and interest for international
cooperation. The main goals of the project are to develop concepts and templates for a globality- and diversity-oriented German Studies both
in research and teaching, present them in publications and establish international cooperations that enable research and teaching in
Tübingen to be carried out in a global and diverse research and learning space. Furthermore, the project aims to establish contacts in different countries to set up a network encompassing the US and several African countries.
