SUMMARY:Hannah Eldridge
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:THE (GERMANOPHONE) POEM AND THE (CONNECTED) WORLD\n\n [Hannah E
 ldridge]\nI bring discussions of lyric poetry and its affordances together
  with\nthinking about race and identity\, specifically through postcolonia
 l\ntheory and poetics. Drawing on Édouard Glissant’s conception of\n“
 Relation” as multidirectional and dynamic interconnection\, I\ntrace pat
 hs from Rainer Maria Rilke in Paris to Algeria\, Sudan\, and\nthe Caribbea
 n. In doing so\, I aim to re-think the canon and the\nmargins of German po
 etry as porous and open to contestation. This\nmeans both expanding defini
 tions of “Germanness” and setting\nGermanophone and other language tex
 ts into relation\, tracking routes\nof mutual strangeness and influence.\n
 \nPart of The Diefenbaker Lectures\n[/germanic-slavic-studies/diefenbaker
 -lectures]\, a series of talks by\nleading scholars in German studies.\n\n
 _Hannah Eldridge is Professor of German at the University of\nWisconsin-Ma
 dison where she also edits the scholarly journal\n_Monatshefte_._\n\n-----
