Women in German
Mission Statement of the Coalition
of Women in German
buildings on the grounds. It is across the river from
Madison, Indiana and some wineries there.
Women in German (WiG) provides a
democratic forum for all people interested in feminist
approaches to German literature and culture or in the
intersection of gender with other categories of
analysis such as sexuality, class, race, and ethnicity.
Through its annual conference, panels at national
professional meetings, and through the publication of
the Women in German Yearbook, the organization
promotes feminist scholarship of outstanding quality.
Women in German is committed to making school
and college curricula inclusive and seeks to create
bridges, cross boundaries, nurture aspirations, and
challenge assumptions while exercising critical self–
awareness. Women in German is dedicated to
eradicating discrimination in the classroom and in the
teaching profession at all levels.
WiG Bulletins
Editorial
Book early!! Listen to our wonderful
organizers of the upcoming WiG Conference in
Carrollton, Kentucky, and book your lodging at
General Butler State Park before August 15!!
Apparently, this site is so desirable, that they will not
hold our blocked rooms past that date… so take a
few minutes today, and make your reservations for
the upcoming WiG conference, taking place October
16-19, 2003. (See the conference information in the
latter part of this Newsletter. Lodging reservations
are to be made directly with the site.)
Our next set of three conferences will be at
General Butler State Park in Carrollton, Kentucky.
This State Resort Park is located on the Ohio River,
roughly halfway between Cincinnati and Louisville
(circa 1 hour from each) on Interstate 71, between I65 and I 74. It is a convenient drive for many people
in the South and Midwest. We will provide the usual
limited van service from the Cincinnati airport, but
encourage people to also explore fares plus car rental
to the Louisville airport, where some Southwest
airline flights are much cheaper.
The park is atop rolling hills overlooking the
river, and has lodge rooms as well as about 20 cabins
nestled around a scenic lakeshore. The cottages are
located a short but demanding walk from the lodge.
The new Conference Center will be booked solely by
WiG, and we will have all meals there. There are
paths, trails, a golf course, and a few historic
Coming This Fall to Your Inbox—The EMailed WiG Newsletter!
This Newsletter is one of WiG’s most
important means of communication among members,
and it has a long tradition of appearing in Wiggies’
mailboxes three times a year. However, we are now
finding that the Newsletter represents a significant
portion of the organization’s budget. In addition,
some members (perish the thought!) have even
confessed to letting the Newsletter gather dust on
their desks, and have suggested that an e-newsletter
would be more ecologically friendly. The Steering
Committee therefore decided to slowly implement an
electronic WiG Newsletter, which will be e-mailed to
members twice a year, with one printed conference
issue to appear in the summer.
We will be compiling an e-mail address list
for the first electronic WiG Newsletter in November
of 2003, and are asking you to send your permanent
e-mail
address
to
Vibs
Petersen
at
vibs.petersen@drake.edu. If you anticipate that your
e-mail address will remain the same for the next year,
feel free to send it to her early, so she can begin
compiling the list.
Make a Donation to the WiG Memorial
Fund!
The WiG Memorial Fund needs you! The
Memorial Fund endows the Zantop Research Travel
Support Award, which supports the feminist cultural
studies that epitomize the work of our beloved
deceased members, particularly including Susanne.
More details regarding the Award can be found in
this Newsletter. The Women in German Memorial
Fund also endows the Women in German
Dissertation Prize, awarded annually to the best
dissertation by a WiG member. For more
information, or to make a donation, please see the

Women in German
Exciting Opportunity for WiG and the
Zantop Travel Prize
Women in German has been approached by
a private non-profit foundation with a chance to earn
a matching grant in the amount of $10,000.00 for
funding the Zantop Travel Prize. The organization
would be required to match this amount by donations
within a certain deadline, probably two years. This
fund of circa $20,000.00 would become the
beginning of an endowment for the Prize. The
foundation wishes to remain anonymous.
This is an exciting development and
opportunity for our organization. It would allow us to
give the Travel Prize on a recurring basis and to
ensure its continuance in the future. It will be a great
development tool for Women in German, because
this matching opportunity will show our fiscal
responsibility to other donors. It will be a bonus for
all graduate students working in feminist German
studies to have this Travel Prize as an endowed grant.
I presented this opportunity at the business
meeting of the Women in German Conference, and
there was an immediately outpouring of donations as
people reached for their checkbooks. We have
already raised approximately $1,000.00 before the
arrangement has even been fully negotiated with the
foundation. Vibs Petersen, our Treasurer, has already
set up a separate account for these donations.
I encourage you to think about making a
donation, and send it as a check to Vibs Petersen,
made out to “Women in German”, designated as the
“Zantop Challenge Grant.” Vibs will send the
acknowledgement
of
your
tax-deductible
contribution. Think big bucks, so that we can harvest
this great bounty for our future graduate students.
Jeannine Blackwell, WiG President
Zantop Research Travel Support Award
Inspired by the work of Susanne Zantop, the
Zantop Research Travel Support Award is intended
to help nurture and sustain research and publication
in feminist cultural studies. An expansion of the WiG
Memorial Fund, the award provides partial support
($500.00 maximum) for research travel by WiG
graduate students. Depending on availability of
funds, we plan to award at least one grant per year.

Women in German Session: “Teaching with the
Disabled in the Foreign Language Classroom”
Organized by Sonja Fritzsche (Illinois Wesleyan
University)
“Initiatives in Educating Foreign Language Faculty
about Teaching Students with Disabilities”
Rasma Lazda, University of Alabama
Helga Thorson, University of Arkansas at Little Rock
"Teaching the Disabled a Foreign Language: A
Critical Overview of Recent Research in the Field
with a Special Focus on Students with Dyslexia."
In their presentation, Helga Thorson and
Rasma Lazda discussed two separate campus
initiatives focusing on foreign language learning and
disability: Project Pace at the University of Arkansas
at Little Rock and revisions in the course substitution
policy at Baylor University. The ultimate goal of
each of these projects was to educate foreign
language faculty on issues related to teaching
students with disabilities. The presenters discussed
the importance of several key factors when tackling
these issues on campus: (1) the importance of
discipline-specific information, (2) the importance of
having foreign language educators work together
with the disability office on campus, and (3) the
importance of delegating responsibility.
Elke Schneider, SUNY College at Fredonia
Elke Schneider, a linguist and Learning
Disability specialist, provided foreign language
educators with introductory information about (1)
important legal aspects and service implications of
the term "language learning disabilities" (LLD) and
common characteristics of such disabilities; (2) an
overview of research-based instructional methods
and their underlying principles, which have been
applied successfully in remediating LLD in the native
language (English) for the past 60 years-- a kind of
teaching referred to as "multisensory, structured,
(metacognitive) language (MS[M]L) instruction; (3)
a summary of 10 years of research findings related to
the "Linguistic Coding Differences Hypothesis
(LCDH)" coined by Ganschow and Sparks, which
proves that weaknesses in language processing in the
first language will reoccur in the second or foreign
language, most likely in the areas of phonology/
orthography and syntax, but also in semantics and
sometimes pragmatics (for an overview of the
research see Ganschow, Sparks, & Javorsky, 1998),
and (4) the latest consequences for the field of
foreign language education and foreign language
learning since the outcome of the Boston University
Law Suit in the late 1990's.
Overall, the presentation provided support
for interested foreign language educators in
implementing features of research-based MSML
instruction in their foreign language classes, and in
making sure that tutors receive training in these
principles, thus rendering them more effective in
their services to struggling students with identified
learning disabilities as well as to unidentified at-risk
learners. Those struggling students who are willing to
learn and invest the extra effort, deserve to receive
first class professional services in Foreign Language
education. This is possible through MSML
instruction. For more information on how to
implement MSML principles in Foreign Language
classrooms and an overview of supporting research,
Helga Thorson described her involvement in
Project Pace at the University of Arkansas at Little
Rock. Project Pace began in 1999 with a three-year
grant from the U.S. Department of Education, Office
of Postsecondary Education, and has been extended
for another three years. The main goals of the project
are (1) the establishment of a faculty Resource
Council which consists of two members from every
department on campus who act as liaisons between
academic departments and the disability support
services on campus and (2) the development of
faculty resources and discipline-specific information.
A three-person team from the Division of
International and Second Language Studies put
together a Faculty Handbook for Teaching Students
with Disabilities. This discipline-specific handbook
was distributed to all foreign language faculty
members on campus. It addresses a range of topics
including frequently asked questions (What
provisions should be included in the course syllabus
regarding the accommodation of students with
disabilities? What if a student announces a disability
after a test? When would a requested accommodation
be considered unreasonable? etc.); a description of
both physical accommodations (classroom space, the
layout of the language lab) and access to material
(textbooks, ancillary material, Websites, etc.); and a
review of the research that has been done on teaching
foreign languages to students with learning
disabilities.
7
Rasma Lazda discussed the process that was
established at Baylor University to address the need
for accommodating students with, disabilities while
at the same time satisfying the university’s
commitment to teaching foreign languages. The
director of the Office of Access and Learning
Accommodation approached the department of
Modern Foreign Languages to collaborate on
decisions regarding accommodations for students
with learning disabilities. A Foreign Language
Committee was formed, and faculty members
educated themselves on the law, including lawsuits
pertaining to learning disabilities; on learning
disabilities in general, as well as the specifics of a
language-based learning disability (mostly dyslexia);
on the possibility of a specific foreign language
learning disability; and on successful case studies and
methods for teaching students with a learning
disability. Besides establishing a working procedure
for substitutions, the process produced a rationale as
to why the study of a world language is an integral
part of the education at Baylor University. The
individual rights of students with a learning disability
for reasonable accommodations are thus met while at
the same time enforcing the academic standards
established by the university. The rationale serves
subsequently as a mission statement for the
Department of Modern Foreign Languages, and was
voted on by all foreign language faculty. If a
substitution is requested, the Dean of Arts and
Sciences, the director of the Office of Access and
Learning Accommodation and the Modern Foreign
Language Committee will develop an individual
education plan for each student who files a petition
with the Dean’s office.
“Helping the ADD Language Learner”
Ann McGlashan, Baylor University
Ann McGlashan began by presenting a
definition of Attention Deficit Disorder and by
describing some difficulties that students with ADD
have in language learning. McGlashan then focused
on an analysis of the manner in which language
textbooks might be constructed in order to
accommodate students with ADD. McGlashan’s
analysis was based in part on personal experience,
since she herself has ADD, and on experiences with a
number of ADD students in her classes.
Acknowledging the drawbacks of Aufenthalt in
Deutschland, McGlashan praised the compact
textbook for its many short chapters, each with a
brief reading passage and only a handful of
vocabulary words and grammar points. Such
structure helps to hold the interest of an ADD person.
Women in German
In contrast, today’s large texts and complex grammar
books, filled with illustrations and communicative
exercises, overwhelm students who are easily
distracted. The many supplemental materials provide
so much information that ADD students find them
hard to keep track of. In addition such students are
distracted by the multi-layered information on a page
(e.g. illustrations or notes in the margins) to the point
that they are unable to identify what is important.
Consequently, these students never feel a sense of
satisfaction in having thoroughly learned what was
expected. McGlashan urges textbook authors to
address the needs of ADD language learners and
believes these changes will benefit all language
students.

Dissertation and New Position
8
at the University of Munich in 1979, she emigrated to
the U.S. in 1989 and approached life from a more
artistic and poetic perspective. As Angela I. Scarlis,
she became known as an installation and
performance artist who exhibited in the U.S., Greece,
and Germany. Recently she published a bilingual
book of poetry under the pen name Angela
Goldemund The Gray Notebook of a Stranger. A
Poetic Breviary for Seekers, which deals with the
afternath of September 11. Three of her poems are
currently on the website of the Goethe Institute:
www.goethe.de/uk/was/lyrik/authors/goldemund.htm
and she is interested in being part of a poetry-writing
group within WiG.

Promotion and Humboldt Fellowship
Searching for “Women” and “German”
yielded our trusty Womeingerman.org website in the
number one spot. (If you ever forget our domain
name, www.google.com will come to the rescue!).
Since I’m one of the webmistresses, I’ll refrain from
reviewing the site. (Please feel free to comment on
the site yourself. We co-webmistresses Lisa Hock
and I are always open to suggestions, and if there is
something amiss, we’d like to hear about it sooner
rather than later!)
Nora M. Alter was promoted to Full
Professor at the University of Florida. She has also
been awarded a Humboldt Stiftung Fellowship for
her book-in-progress on the International Essay Film.

Angela Scarlis is a German-born naturalized
American who has lived in the U.S. for 15 years after
three years in Greece. Guided by a more poetic
outlook on life, she has created a mosaic of careers
for herself. In Germany, she worked as an editor and
writer under the name Angela Jurinek-Stinner in the
field of education and language training (Max
Hueber Verlag, Munich). After completing a Dr.phil.
No one sent any clicks, fascinating or
otherwise, since the last Fascinating Clicks column.
What’s a Online Resources editor to do?!? Instead of
despairing as the deadline approached, I decided to
amuse myself. What would happen if I did a search
on topics of interest to Wiggies on Google?
(www.google.com is the best search engine around.)
The number two link occupied WIGS,
Women in German Studies from the UK
http://www.wigs.ac.uk/ Our sister organization’s
website includes announcements of upcoming
conferences, including their September 2003
9
Women in German
conference on “Local Narratives/Global Narrative of
Identity.” If you are interested in reading their online
discussions, the site has an archive of postings on
their email listserv.
Number three was “Sophie, the Digital
Library of early German women’s writing”
http://humanities.byu.edu/sophie/home.htm already
reviewed in the first Online Resources Column Fall
2001 (available online on the womeningerman.org
archive).
The Deutsche Welle bilingual (GermanEnglish) website recently announced an event which
included the terms “German” and “women”
http://www.dw-world.de/english/ listed a recent
feature on an exhibition in Bonn on women’s role in
war, a particularly relevant exhibition given the
present situation in Iraq. The site also features a
complete archive of its coverage of the war in Iraq,
and can be useful as a source of non-US coverage.
Then I went on a hunt for websites further
afield. The search for keywords “Frauen” and
“Deutsch” yielded a bizarre set of links worth
mentioning because of their humor value (an antidote
to depressing war coverage). The links in this search
included Hugh Grant interviews in which he is
quoted (translated) as saying “Ich finde es sexy,
wenn Frauen deutsch sprechen” (no comment), a
website proclaiming itself to be a site celebrating
Hippy women (I could not discern what this had to
do with Frauen and Deutsch unfortunately), and a
Photoshop artist’s image of a “Langenscheid’s
Frauen-Deutsch,
Deutsch-Frauen”
dictionary
(http://janus.errornet.de/images/view/jpg/fun/frauendeutsch).

Katrin Sieg. Ethnic Drag: Performing
Race, Nation, Sexuality in West Germany.
Ann Arbor: The University of Michigan Press, 2002.
$54.50.
Katrin Sieg
offers a theoretically
sophisticated and complex study of ethnic drag in
postwar West German culture. The focus on ethnic
drag allows Sieg to investigate the “continuities,
permutations, and contradictions of racial feelings in
West German culture” (2). Ethnic drag, a composite
term that is indebted to critical race studies and queer
studies connotes theoretical discussions in the
respective fields on mimesis and mimicry, on the one
hand, and camp and drag, on the other. Sieg analyzes
those drag acts that reproduce hegemonic racial
discourses of dominant culture and those that
challenge essentialist notions of racial and ethnic
identity. The multiplicity of political functions of
ethnic drag also challenges queer studies’
understanding of performativity as inherently
subversive. Sieg’s detailed, historically specific study
of theatrical practices offers a way out of the binary
of essentialism and performativity precisely because
of drag’s double referent to anatomical given and
social role.
Ethnic Drag contributes to the field of
German Studies a complex account of postwar
German representation of race and ethnicity. The
scope of the analysis is only limited by the
geographical and historical parameter of West
Germany, yet Sieg even exceeds those parameters.
For example, she discusses Gotthold Ephraim
Lessing’s 1779 Nathan the Wise in the context of
Jewish impersonation and different theatrical
stagings, from a 1933 performance by an all-Jewish
ensemble in Nazi Berlin to West German
philosemitic stagings in the 1950s. The first chapter
singularly exemplifies Sieg’s meticulous research of
stage and production history that enables her to
account for the shifting political significance of racial
embodiment and masquerade.
Sieg accords the same theoretical depth to
high and popular culture. She views the adaptations
of Karl May’s Winnetou in its different versions of
performance in Bad Segeberg as drag shows and thus
is able to “restore both the hegemonic and the
subversive dimension of ethnic drag” (85). She reads
Women in German
the interracial melodramas performed at Bad
Segeberg as revealing postwar West Germany’s
phantasmatic self-representation, and suggests that
the genocide of Jews in Nazi Germany was displaced
to the American frontier, reproducing West German
politicians’ rhetoric of Germans as victims of the
foreign occupation. Sieg’s intriguing discussion of
the subculture of German hobbyists who enact their
diverse ideas of American Indianness relies on
interviews with individual club participants. Her
findings call into question the Frankfurt School’s
depiction of passive consumers of the culture
industries.
The book’s discussion of ethnic drag in such
diverse texts as Max Frisch’s play Andorra (1961),
Rainer Werner Fassbinder’s film Katzelmacher
(1968), Gerhard Kromschröder’s journalistic report
Als ich ein Türke war (When I was a Turk, 1983),
Kerstin Specht’s play Lila (1990), Hubert Fichte’s
radio plays San Pedro Claver (1975) and Großes
Auto für San Pedro Claver (Great Act for Saint
Pedro Claver, 1980), Ulrike Ottinger’s film Johanna
d’Arc of Mongolia (1989), Native American theatre
company Spiderwoman’s play Winnetou’s Snake Oil
Show from Wigwam City (1988) and Emine Sevgi
Özdamar’s play Keloglan in Alamania (1991)
bespeak the range of political use to which ethnic
drag has been put, as well as the range of
interpretative readings, with which Sieg traces her
object of study. Ethnic Drag exceeds several binaries
that structure German Studies: the divide between
texts by minorities and those authors identified as
German, the divide between popular culture and high
culture, and the divide between history and theory.
The result is an important book for all those who
participate in the attempt to provide a theoretically
sophisticated and historically detailed account of how
concepts of identity shape German postwar culture,
often in contradictory ways.

Women in German
WiG Memorial Fund
Women in German was founded to promote feminist teaching and scholarship in German literary and
cultural studies. To this end, we sponsor the annual WiG conference, distribute a quarterly newsletter, publish an
annual journal, and confer an annual prize for the best dissertation.
The dissertation prize is funded from the Women in German Memorial Fund, established in 1993 to honor
the memory of Sydna “Bunny” Weiss, whose loyalty and contributions to WiG were inspirational to all those who
knew and worked with her. As the membership lost other dear friends, Sigrid Brauner, Ann Clark Fehn, Konstanze
Bäumer, Marilyn Sibley Fries, and Susanne Zantop, the fund was rededicated to the memory of all treasured WiG
members now deceased. In awarding the annual prize to the dissertation that best reflects the values of Women in
German, we honor past members’ devotion to excellence in feminist scholarship and to WiG as an organization.
Besides continuing the annual dissertation prize, we want to increase the memorial fund in order to expand
our activities, reach a wider audience, and support younger members of the profession. Our most loyal source of
funding has always been our membership, and we invite you to contribute at a level that is comfortable for you.
WiG has been recognized by the IRS as a 501 (c) (3) tax-exempt organization. Thus, contributions to WiG
are tax-deductible.
