Forum Transregionale Studien: 2022 Visiting Fellowship

SUMERNET Call for Fellowship Applications 2022/23

Deadline: 15-Feb-22

The European University Viadrina and the University of Potsdam invite scholars to apply for a three-month Visiting Fellowship in 2022 within the framework of the project “European Times – A transregional Approach to the Societies of Central and Eastern Europe”.

“Europäische Zeiten/European Times – A Transregional Approach to the Societies of Central and Eastern Europe (EUTIM)” is a joint project of the European University Viadrina Frankfurt (Oder), the University of Potsdam and the Forum Transregionale Studien in Berlin. It deals with narratives of time and space at the edges of Europe. Based on experiences in the societies of Central and Eastern Europe, concepts such as “old”/”new” and “East”/”West” are analysed with their temporal demarcations and localisations. Cultural phenomena of non-simultaneity are examined with regard to dynamics of de-Europeanisation and Europeanisation.

The EUTIM project will focus on “Small Literatures”. The research work puts the spotlight on the influences of concepts of modernisation on small literatures, in which  theyobserve processes of adoption, modification and reshaping of aesthetics and stylistic procedures from empires and discourse-setting cultures. In addition, accelerated and slowed-down dynamics of interweaving processes between different European cultures and literatures will be examined and reflected as modi of non-simultaneity.
