Robert Tobin and the longue durée of German LGBTQ+ history
German was the language that helped me express myself, organize my thoughts, name my desires, and develop my sexuality. Raised as an American speaking English, I pivoted to this foreign language, the literature written in that language (and for me, literature is often language about language), and critical language to discuss this literature—an intricate web of textuality—while coming of age and coming to terms with my own identity as a white gay…
Hesitancy and Hovering
What accounts for the hesitancy many viewers, including scholars and students, feel in assessing the relationship between von Bernburg and Manuela? Are they lesbians? Is the student-teacher dynamic inappropriate? Is von Bernburg merely a mother figure to Manuela? How can Manuela, depicted as a child, even express erotic longings? This article attempts to counter such questions with an eye to irony, camp, melodrama, and fetishism—starting with the…

Irena Vrkljan’s Autobiographical Prose between Zagreb and Berlin
Irena Vrkljan cites Frantisek Halas, the twentieth-century Czech poet (1901–1949), to head one of the chapters in Marina, im Gegenlicht, a semi-autobiographical novel that combines reflections on her own life story with that of the Russian poet Marina Tsvetayeva (1982–1941). Like Tsvetayeva, with whose itinerant life she expresses an affinity, Vrkljan has lived between cultures, in her case between Croatia and Germany, in a liminal space she asso…

A Higher Language
Around 1800 Philipp Otto Runge fashioned with scissors and paper a dog gazing up at a full moon. Significantly, the dog holds his mouth closed, as if, were he to howl, we might think him a wolf in the wild. Instead he is a domesticated dog, to the point that he even communicates human value: like a true Romantic, he raises his eyes silently to the sky, his chest filled with a longing for transcendence. Art critic Robert Rosenblum has written that…
