German in the World: Exhibition Catalogue for the Association for German Studies Conference 2025 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781068605864)

The exhibition 'German in the World' accompanies the 2025 Association for German Studies conference at the University of Oxford. Both build on the founding principles of the Taylor Institution Library, the Modern Languages Library at Oxford: to chart the development of 'Nationalliteratur' in the context of 'Weltliteratur', to look at how global perspectives have shaped German literature, and to make visible how in turn German-language poetry, pamphlets, and philosophy has spread across the globe. The volume combines contributions to different parts of the conference programme. It opens with a history of teaching and researching German abroad seen through the formation of the collections of the Taylor Institution Library, in the 19th century. a new translation of a ground-breaking text by Natasha A. Kelly, the President's Guest at the AGS. This edition is part of the 'Cultural Memory' series of the Taylor Institution Library in Oxford.
