Michael Gamper and Peter Schnyder, editors. Dramatische Eigenzeiten des Politischen im 18. und 19. Jahrhundert
Anniversaries, the Public, and Academia
Anniversaries have been much problematised in scholarship, not least in the present special number. But pragmatically, they are also a tried‐and‐tested way of engaging with diverse publics. In contemporary British Higher Education, such work is incentivised through the impact agenda of the Research Excellence Framework. The following contribution brings together three British‐based colleagues in German Studies, who each reflect on their own pract…
Pretexts for Writing: German Romantic Prefaces, Literature, and Philosophy

Cancer Coiffures: Embodied Storylines of Cancer Patienthood and Survivorship in the Consumerist Cultural Imaginary

Although the anthology has its roots in the ancient world, it arose in German letters in the eighteenth century. While the nineteenth century can be called – quantitatively and terminologically – the heyday of the anthology, the eighteenth century was the dawn of its diversity. The present special number examines this variety, as represented in particular examples. The first and most obvious problem for our period is terminological. Once we overc…
The Very Late Goethe: Self-Consciousness and the Art of Ageing
Charlotte Lee defines a new period in Goethe's works. She does so precisely and, to my mind, persuasively. Whereas it is conventional to speak of Goethe's late works, a category which usually start
