ZiF Research Group
'Felix Culpa'?
Guilt as Culturally Productive Force
October 2018 - July 2019
Convenors: Matthias Buschmeier (Bielefeld, GER),
Katharina von Kellenbach (St. Mary's City, USA)
In order to move our proposed hypothesis of guilt as a productive force forward, the group will convene on a regular basis to exchange different disciplinary approaches. The meetings will take place on Thursdays at ZiF to work from 14.30h until 18.00h.
Each jour fixe includes an organizational unit (max. one hour) to plan programming, conferences, publications, invitations of external guest speakers, public presentations, etc. Each jour fixe addresses a different topic to be filled by fellows' interests, questions, and needs. A jour fixe can be devoted to presentations of current work in progress, to discussion of assigned readings, cross-disciplinary exchange of background materials, etc.
