Brainfucked about Britain: Sibylle Berg’s Transnational Novel GRM
In 2019, Sibylle Berg’s novel GRM Brainfuck was published to considerable acclaim. Berg, a German writer based in Switzerland, uses a contemporary British setting for a satirical speculation on the future of Western societies. The novel represents the UK as a social constellation that combines a tradition of class privilege with the worst excesses of global capitalism, technological surveillance, and mass manipulation. One force of resistance is …
John Lanchester's Capital: Financial Risk and Its Counterpoints
John Lanchester’s Capital (2012) reads London as a space in which risk and chance are complexly entangled – for ‘native’ Londoners as well as people who come to it from all parts of the world and for various reasons: as businessmen, economic migrants, political refugees or talent from the Global South. Capital comes across as a ‘social novel’ in the nineteenth-century sense: as a panorama of social types and narrative trajectories. It is precisel…
From Picturesque to Political: Transcultural Perspectives on Germany in Victorian Popular Periodicals, 1850 to 1875
General‐audience periodicals are an underused source for the study of transcultural perceptions and relations in the nineteenth century. With their pieces on travel and topography, multi‐authored magazines created a multi‐faceted image of the world. This kaleidoscopic mode directs our attention to the complexity of the period's popular imagination of foreign countries and transcultural relations. The article focuses on Germany as a case study and…

Black History - White History: Britain's Historical Programme between Windrush and Wilberforce
Britain's recent historical culture is marked by a shift. As a consequence of new political directives, black history began to be mainstreamed into the realm of national history from the late 1990s onwards. »Black History - White History« assesses a number of manifestations of this new cultural historiography on screen and on stage, in museums and other accessible sites, emerging in the context of two commemorative events: the Windrush anniversar…

Anthologies of British Poetry: Critical Perspectives from Literary and Cultural Studies
From Tottel's Miscellany (1557) to the last twentieth-century Oxford Book of English Verse (1999), anthologies have been a prime institution for the preservation and mediation of poetry. The importance of anthologies for creating and re-creating the canon of English poetry, for introducing ‘new' programmes of poetry, as a record of changing poetic fashions, audience tastes and reading practices, or as a profitable literary commodity has often bee…

Shakespeare under Different Flags: The Bard in German Classrooms from Hitler to Honecker
This article contributes to the study of Shakespeare's appropriation in Germany during the twentieth century, with a particular focus on its two authoritarian regimes: the Third Reich and the German Democratic Republic. Germans have had their very own `German' Shakespeare since the eighteenth century. Goethe and Schiller, among others, claimed the playwright for their projects of literary (and national) self-assertion. Ideologues in the Third Rei…
