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.

~ Dear Readers! ~
Welcome to the 102nd Issue of the Women in German Newsletter. This volume is mostly but
not exclusively devoted to information about this fall’s conference and registration information. All of
the forms you need are included here, but the registration materials will also accessible on our website
under www.womeningerman.org after July 1st. Everybody is encouraged to use on-line registration!
However, you can also download the forms in pdf or word format, and send them to the organizers via
snail mail, whichever is most convenient for you. Our conference guest this year is poet, essayist,
novelist, and dramatist Esther Dischereit. We hope to see you in this beautiful location for another
truly exciting conference!
As you will notice, the WiG Bibliography is back in a new format – thanks to the work of
Jennifer Hosek and Sarah McGaughey. In a preface, Jennifer Hosek explains some of the search tools
they used to put together this impressive list. Don’t forget to read about the winners of the Zantop
Travel Awards and about what’s going on in Europe this summer. We apologize for the delayed
posting for some of the Personal News items; this is entirely to blame on an oversight on our side and
we hope it won’t happen again.
In an effort to consolidate WiG’s graphic identity, we’ve adopted the font used on the Women
in German website. We hope you like our new look.
We wish you a wonderful summer and look forward to seeing you in Utah in October!

~ Zantop Travel Award Winners ~
We are very pleased to announce that four students were awarded Zantop travel grants this spring. The
winners and their projects are:
Nicola Berhmann
Germanic Languages and Literatures, New York University (Paul Fleming)
The grant will help support archival research for Nicola’s dissertation project “The Avant-Garde of
the Other: Emmy Hennings (1885-1948).” The selection committee was impressed with her plan to
sift through previously unexamined materials in several archives in order to develop a coherent
account of Emmy Hennings’ biographical data. When completed, the study should offer a new
perspective on the Dada movement as well as contributing theoretically to Gender Studies and
German Studies.
Michelle Duncan
Department of German Studies, Cornell University (Michael B. Steinberg)
The grant will fund travel to the Freud Archives in Washington, D.C. to consult some recently
derestricted interviews that will fill a gap in the research for her dissertation project “Listening for
Freud: The Scandals of Voice and the Sounds of Psychoanalysis.” The selection committee admired
the scope and complexity of this project, which promises to uncover the relationship between aspects
of Freud’s subjectivity and music, specifically opera.
Nicole Grewling
Department of German, Scandinavian, and Dutch, University of Minnesota (Ruth-Ellen Joeres)
The grant will help support research travel for Nicole’s dissertation project “Fighting the Two-Souled
Warrior: German Colonial Fantasies of North America.” The selection committee was convinced of
the soundness of her plan to examine representations of colonial and interethnic issues in German
Jugendliteratur. The chapter on Sophie von Wörishöffer, to be researched in Munich and Berlin, will
provide the basis for a crucial piece of Nicole’s argument for expanding on the insights of Susanne
Zantop in Colonial Fantasies.
Anna Parkinson
Department of German Studies, Cornell University (Leslie Adelson)
The grant will support archival research for Anna’s dissertation project “Affective Passages: The
Politics of Emotion in Postwar German Culture.” The selection committee was impressed with the
conceptual and theoretical sophistication of this project, which is expected to contribute to a more
comprehensive and nuanced understanding of post-World War II consciousness in Germany.
Particularly intriguing is Anna’s research on Ingeborg Bachmann and on “Mütterfilme” to inform an
understanding of gender and sexuality in national identity formation.
It is gratifying to see such a range of exciting projects underway. We look forward to hearing or
reading about the results in the near future.

~ WiG Prizes and Awards ~
The Zantop Research Travel Award for Graduate Students
Inspired by the work of Susanne Zantop, Women in German established an award in her honor to help
nurture and sustain research and publication in feminist cultural studies. The award provides partial
support ($500 maximum) for research travel by WiG graduate students.

Graduate students who have not yet completed the Ph.D. Applicants must be WiG members
with a project approved by a faculty advisor for research on a topic in feminist cultural studies

The primary criteria are the proposed project’s potential to contribute to the field of feminist
cultural studies and its significance for the applicant’s scholarly development.
Application:
In a statement of no more than three pages, applicants should articulate their research
question(s), explain why travel to the specified site(s) is necessary, and describe their
qualifications for successful completion of the research. A one-page budget statement listing
the projected cost of travel to the site, the amount of the travel cost requested from WiG, and
support anticipated from other sources must be provided. A letter of support from a faculty
advisor addressing the applicant’s qualifications is also requested.
Deadlines:
November 1 and March 1 of each year. Send applications to the WiG President: Jeanette
Clausen, Office of Academic Affairs, Indiana University Purdue University Fort Wayne,

Distinguished Women Scholars Lecture
Ruth-Ellen B. Joeres (German and Women’s Studies, University of Minnesota), after having already
received the Distinguished Women Scholars Award from the University of Minnesota in 2004, was
invited to present the first Distinguished Women Scholars Lecture in the Humanities, Social Sciences,
and Arts for the University of Minnesota community on March 21, 2006. Her paper on "The Universal
Appeal of the Particular " involves a discussion of the dynamic tension between the particular and the
universal that feminism (or perhaps any other discipline that bases itself in part on political and social
convictions) represents. The particular here involves the personal, the subjective, the experiential, and
the practical, whereas the universal calls to mind the general, the theoretical, and the abstract, Under the
rubrics "reading and writing," "theory and theorizing," and "life," she engaged in thinking about both the
positive and negative effects of particularizing, how they have affected the role of feminist work in the
institution known as the academy—and because this was a discussion of particularity, their effect on her
as a feminist scholar and female human being. In that regard, she also offered excerpts from the memoir
she is now writing. The distinguished lecture series is not necessarily intended for awardees, but for
scholars whom the Graduate School and the Office for University Women wish to honor by selecting
them for one of two lectures. Ruth-Ellen’s lecture this spring represented the Humanities, Social
Sciences and Arts while a lecture last fall by a stem cell researcher was chosen to represent the fields of
Science and Engineering.

World War II. She was able to observe how each of these nations approached history in different ways.
In September 2005, she took part in an International Conference on Gender Issues in Holocaust Studies
in Israel. They were held at different venues, one of them being Beit Terezin, the museum and archive
founded by survivors of the concentration camp Theresienstadt near Prague. Unlike conferences of this
nature in other parts of the world, there one could feel how so many individuals had been affected by
loss because of the Holocaust. In fact, survivors were an important part of the conference. It gave Doerr
the opportunity for interviews with those who now are expressing their experiences and memories in
their writing and art.
Retirement
Lynda King (Oregon State) is retiring as of July 1, 2006 in order to devote herself to dog training and
dog event administration in her next life.

Writing Resources at your Typing Finger Tips
By Yvonne Houy
When I arrived at graduate school in the early 1990s, the implicit (and sometimes quite explicit)
message that I and my fellow grad students received from our faculty, was that we were intellectuals
and researchers. It was only after I finished my dissertation that I began to think of myself as a writer.
Writing is the medium of choice in the Humanities: Even when presenting orally, most academics in
the humanities choose to read from a written text. Good writing resources at one’s typing finger tips
are thus crucial. Microsoft Word, the dominant word processing program, has a number of useful
writing resources right off of the Tools menu (spelling and grammar checkers, word count, tracking
changes, etc.) but the web offers a wider variety and higher quality resources. Here is a sampling:
Easy to use and fast, Dictionary.com and Thesaurus.com are twin websites that provide definitions,
and synonyms and antonyms, respectively, of words you type in. It doesn’t get simpler, faster, and
cheaper than this.
If you need/want (and can afford) a higher quality dictionary service, the Oxford English Dictionary
has an online dictionary for subscribers ($295 per year, $29.95 per month). Since I’m averse to
spending more money than I must, I can’t tell you what you can get for $30 a month beyond what you
get for free at dictionary.com. http://www.oed.com/
Need to translate a word fast? http://dict.leo.org/ is has gotten even easier to use over the years. Type
in a word—in English or German—and it gives you translations of the word, and of idiomatic
expressions that use that word. This site also has German-Spanish and German-French dictionaries
available.
http://www.dict.cc/ is an online collaborative translation dictionary. Internet users contribute
translations of words and phrases. I am often impressed by the nuances in words that this collaborative
effort gets across. Here you can feel just how dynamic, variable and alive a language is, and that the
definitions of the typical dictionary, created by a committee of language experts, sometimes feels
static.
Need to translate whole sentences or websites? Try Yahoo.de’s Babble Fish
http://de.babelfish.yahoo.com/ But don’t expect much more than getting the gist of the text (if you’re
lucky). Expect to be amused. Or puzzled.
Feeling poetic and want to spice up your writing voice? http://www.rhymezone.com/ is kinda fun. Not
only a dictionary, it also offers a thesaurus and rhyming help.
FYI: BoingBoing.net has information on how you can view the world cup on live streaming video for
free.

Thanks to an initiative by Dr Ekkehard Henschke, Director of Leipzig University Library up to 31
March 2005, a plaque to commemorate Christiane Mariane von Ziegler is being unveiled in Leipzig
on 3 June 2006. The British periodical German Life and Letters put up a quarter of the money. Now
read on:
Gedenktafel für Christiane Mariane von Ziegler (1695-1760) in Leipzig
Die Stiftung „Bürger für Leipzig“ und die Stadt Leipzig ehren gemeinsam die Leipziger
Dichterin und Musikerin Christiane Mariane von Ziegler mit einer Gedenktafel. Die Tafel wird am
Pfingstsamstag, dem 03.06.2006, um 15 Uhr im Rahmen eines kulturellen Straßenempfangs am
Romanushaus in der Leipziger Katharinenstraße enthüllt.
Christiane Mariane von Ziegler war die Tochter des Leipziger Bürgermeisters Romanus. Sie
war erstes und einziges weibliches Mitglied der „Deutschen Gesellschaft“ und zugleich eine der
wenigen deutschen Dichterinnen, die als „Poeta Laureatus“ gekrönt und anerkannt wurde. Sie hat
mehrere Bände mit Gedichten publiziert und spielte selbst Klavier, Laute und Querflöte. Johann
Sebastian Bach hat ihre Texte in mehreren Kantaten vertont. Sie war seit etwa 1723 der
selbstbewusste Mittelpunkt eines literarisch-musikalischen Salons in Leipzig, in dem neben Johann
Sebastian Bach auch der deutsche Literaturpapst Johann Christoph Gottsched verkehrte.
Die Leipziger Künstlerin Ute Puder war mit der Gestaltung der Gedenktafel beauftragt.
Gegossen wurde sie vom Bronzegießer Noack. Die Inschrift ist in Deutsch und Englisch verfasst. Die
Tafel wird aus Gründen des Denkmalschutzes in den Fußweg vor dem Portal des Romanushaus
eingelassen. An der Finanzierung der Gedenktafel haben sich neben der Stadt Leipzig die britische
Germanistik-Zeitschrift „German Life and Letters“ sowie zahlreiche Einzelpersonen beteiligt. Frau
Prof. Helen Watanabe-O’Kelly, Oxford, wird das Herausgebergremium der Zeitschrift bei der Feier
vertreten. Herr Dr. Georg Girardet, Kulturbeigeordneter der Stadt Leipzig, wird sie eröffnen. Der
Germanist Prof. Ludwig Stockinger, Universität Leipzig, würdigt die literarische Leistung der
Geehrten. Stiftungsratsvorsitzende Katrin Hart rezitiert aus dem Werk der Zieglerin. Begleitet wird
die Feier von barocken Posaunenklängen. Am folgenden Pfingstsonntag, dem 04.06.2006, um 09:30
Uhr wird eine Bach-Kantate mit dem Text von Christiane Mariane von Ziegler im Rahmen des
Gottesdienstes von der Bach-Akademie Tokyo in der Leipziger Nicolaikirche aufgeführt.
Sie sind herzlich eingeladen!

Call for Papers (Journal): Stiftung Archiv der deutschen Frauenbewegung
Metropole(n) / Peripherie - Perspektiven auf die Frauenbewegungen
Deadline: 18.06.2006
Die Zeitschrift "Ariadne - Forum für Frauen- und Geschlechtergeschichte" hat sich für das 51.
Heft, das im Mai 2007 erscheinen wird, den Arbeitstitel "Metropole(n) - Peripherie" gewählt und
möchte unter dieser Perspektive auf die Frauenbewegungen des 19. und 20. Jahrhunderts schauen.
Metropolen sind Zentren der politischen und ökonomischen Macht und des kulturellen Lebens und
entfalten eine hohe Anziehungskraft für Menschen und neue Ideen. Von ihnen gehen Impulse für
Veränderungen aus, als Schauplatz für kulturelles und politisches Geschehen sind sie von zentraler
Bedeutung, "ein Ort entfesselter Kommunikation."1 Auch die Geschichte von Frauen und
Frauenbewegungen ist mit dieser Faszination verknüpft; moderne Weiblichkeitsbilder und neue
Lebensentwürfe konnten hier entwickelt werden, "das traditionelle Geschlechterverhältnis", so spitzen
es Sigrun Anselm und Barbara Beck zu, "brach zuallererst in den Städten auf."2
Doch Metropolen - bewusst im Plural formuliert, denn es gab und gibt mehrere regionale,
städtische Zentren, nicht nur die Reichs- oder Bundeshauptstadt - haben einen ambivalenten
Charakter; üben sie einerseits große Anziehungskraft aus und entfalten Strahlkraft auf die Peripherie,
so lösen sie andererseits auch Fluchtbewegungen aus. "Eine Art diskursive Bestimmung," so stellt
Kirsten Heinsohn heraus, "liegt aber auch vor, wenn darüber räsoniert wird, ob eine Stadt als Zentrum
Sommer 2006
oder Peripherie mit Bezug auf eine historische Entwicklung gelten könne. Die damit verbundene
dichotomische Perspektive unterbindet oft genug aber Einsichten in das Zusammenspiel regionaler
Traditionen und zentralisierender Entwicklungen."3
Die Ariadne möchte dieses Zusammenspiel von regionalen Traditionen und zentralisierenden
Entwicklungen in den Blick nehmen. Frauenbewegungen sollen hier in einem sehr umfassenden Sinne
verstanden werden, gemeint sind alle Aktivitäten von Frauen, die die Rolle von Frauen in der
Gesellschaft thematisieren. Der zeitliche Rahmen soll die letzten beiden Jahrhunderte umspannen und
die aktuelle Situation an der Wende zum 21. Jahrhundert ausdrücklich mit einschließen.
Zur Geschichte der Frauenbewegungen liegt inzwischen eine Vielzahl von Forschungen vor,
die einen guten Überblick über viele Organisationen, Themen und die verschiedenen Strömungen der
Bewegung geben. Ebenso liegen Biographien vieler Protagonistinnen - zumindest der führenden der
alten Frauenbewegung - vor. Standen bei den Forschungen zunächst eher die überregionalen
Aktivitäten der Frauen im Vordergrund, so sind insbesondere seit den 1990er Jahren auch die lokalen
stärker ins Blickfeld genommen worden, wobei sich der Blick nicht nur auf die großen Städte, sondern
auch auf kleinere Orte oder auf ganze Regionen richtet.
Unter der Perspektive "Metropole(n) / Peripherie" möchten wir diese Forschungen
verknüpfen. Nachfolgend einige Fragestellungen, die in einzelnen Beiträgen aufgegriffen werden
könnten, so z.B.: - Was heißt Metropole(n) / Peripherie für die Frauenbewegung? Kann man
überhaupt von der Metropole der Frauenbewegung sprechen? Was macht einen Ort unter welchen
zeitlichen und politischen Bedingungen zur Metropole der Frauenbewegung?
• Wie ist das Verhältnis vom Zentrum bzw. von den Zentren zu den Regionen? Wie sieht z.B.
das von den Dachverbänden zu den Einzelvereinen, von den reichs- bzw. bundesweiten
Organisationen zu den lokalen aus, von den internationalen zu den nationalen?
• Wie hat sich die alte Frauenbewegung mit der Einigung des Deutschen Reichs 1870/71
verändert? Kann man nicht erst seit dem überhaupt zwischen Hauptstadt und regionalen
Zentren unterscheiden? Konzentrierte sich die Bewegung auf eine Hauptstadt? Waren bzw.
wurden andere Orte nur dann erst zur Peripherie, die wiederum regionale Schwerpunkte /
Zentren bildeten?
• Welche Bedeutung hat die Frage der Metropole(n) / Peripherie für die Zeit von 1945 bis
1989? Was heißt dies z.B. für die neue / autonome Frauenbewegung in Westdeutschland, die
sich als Basisbewegung verstanden hat und keinerlei Dachorganisation anstrebte? Und was
für die Frauenaktivitäten in Ostdeutschland?
• Welche Generation(en) engagierten sich in den verschiedenen Phasen der Frauenbewegung?
In den Zentren? Oder in der Peripherie? Gab es so etwas wie eine Tradierung zwischen den
Generationen? Oder fangen alle immer wieder bei Null an - so wie die neue Frauenbewegung
in Westdeutschland nichts von der alten wusste, und diese als große Neuentdeckung
behandelt wurde.
• Wie sieht es aus international und / oder national? Welche Bedeutung hat die internationale
Ebene? Wie verschieben sich hier die Ausrichtungen: vor 1945, nach 1945, und vor allem
nach 1989? Auf welcher Ebene arbeitet man wie zusammen? Arbeitet man überhaupt
zusammen? Gibt es Netze, und wenn ja, welche? Wie stehen Netzwerke zu Fragen nach
Peripherie und Metropole?
Wir freuen uns über entsprechende Artikelvorschläge. Die einzelnen Beiträge sollen einen Umfang
von ca. 26.000 bis 35.000 Zeichen, d.h. ca. 9 bis 12 Manuskriptseiten haben. Redaktionsschluss wird
der 1. Dezember 2006 sein. Da sich die genaue inhaltliche Gestaltung des Heftes nach den
eingehenden Exposés richtet, reichen Sie bitte auch Aufsatzideen ein, die hier nicht angesprochene
Fragestellungen aufgreifen bzw. die am Rande des Themas zu liegen scheinen. Wenn Sie Interesse an
der Abfassung eines Artikels haben, reichen Sie uns bitte bis zum 18. Juni 2006 ein aussagekräftiges

Die fetten Jahre sind vorbei? Welche fetten Jahre? Braucht die Gesellschaft die
Literaturwissenschaft? Eine Podiumsdiskussion zur Situation der Germanistik zu Beginn des 21.
Jahrhunderts
Die Kultur- und Literaturwissenschaften sind in der Krise, und das nicht zum ersten Mal,
zugleich zeigen sie eine Produktivität wie seit Jahren nicht mehr. Stellen sind Mangelware, aber
Wissenschaftler nicht. Ausbildung und Bildung stehen hoch im Kurs, aber vor allem in den
Sonntagsreden und nicht bei den Ausstattungen der Bildungsinstitutionen - aller PISA-Schocks und
Unkenrufe zum Trotz. Das gilt nicht nur für Bremen, aber auch für Bremen.
Ein Theater steht vor dem Bankrott, öffentliche Bibliotheken werden "konzentriert", aus drei
Germanistikprofessuren wird eine. Sparmaßnahmen in allen "öffentlichen Servicebereichen" - und
dazu gehören auch Universitäten - sind inzwischen "normal". Erstaunlicherweise geht es jedoch nicht
darum, dass kein Geld vorhanden wäre, sondern um Prioritäten. Und Priorität hat offensichtlich alles,
was zu vermarkten und was ökonomisch wertvoll ist.
Sprache und Literatur, Kultur und Bildung, historisches Bewusstsein und Reflexionsfähigkeit,
ja selbst sprachlicher und schriftlicher Ausdruck rücken dabei in den Hintergrund, werden zur
Zweitausstattung, zur Kür, zum Zierrat, dem man sich dann widmet, wenn Zeit und Geld dafür übrig
sind. Die Literaturwissenschaften haben darunter besonders zu leiden - in den siebziger Jahren gaben
sie sich besonders kritisch und widerständig, zugleich ist ihre Entwicklung aber auch von
Spezialisierung und Beliebigkeit bestimmt. Das Fach der Dichter hat sich möglicherweise auch damit
begnügt, nur für Dichter zuständig zu sein. Der Hüter kulturellen Erbes zu sein, genügt heute
vielleicht wirklich nicht mehr.
Selber schuld also?
Ein Fach muss deutlich machen, in welchem gesellschaftlichen Kontext Forschung und Lehre
stehen, welches Interesse die Allgemeinheit an den Ergebnissen hat, warum genau diese Forschung
und Entwicklung gesellschaftliche Relevanz aufweist und gesellschaftlich verwertbar ist - schließlich
wird universitäres Handeln von jedem/r SteuerzahlerIn subventioniert.
Wie steht es in diesem Sinne mit der Germanistik im Besonderen und der Literaturwissenschaft
im Allgemeinen? Mit VertreterInnen aus unterschiedlichen gesellschaftlichen Bereichen werden wir
während einer Podiumsdiskussion folgende Fragen erörtern:
1. Literatur produzieren" - ein Beruf? Schreiben kann doch jeder! "Literatur lesen" - ein Job? Lesen
tun wir alle! "Literatur analysieren" - eine Berufung? Gut bezahlt und lebenslang? Wie wird
"außerhalb" des Faches literaturwissenschaftliche/germanistische Forschung und Lehre verortet?
2. Buchmessen, literarische Wochen, Literaturpreisverleihungen: Events oder Transfer von
literarischem Erkenntnisstreben?
3. Ignoranz auf Seiten derjenigen, die über die "Verteilungshoheit" verfügen versus Kompetenz auf
Seiten der FachvertreterInnen? Muss sich die Germanistik "verkaufen"?
4. Der Produktion eines neuen Chips oder der Analyse biologischer Prozesse scheint ein unmittelbarer
Nutzen innezuwohnen - Forschung und Entwicklung als gesellschaftliche Notwendigkeit für
Erkenntnis und Wohlstand. Führt die Produktion eines Textes oder die Analyse einer Sprache im
Prozess von Forschung und Entwicklung ebenfalls zu Erkenntnis und Wohlstand?
5. Rationalisierung versus Ratio? Welche Rolle haben die Literaturwissenschaften?
6. Wandlung der Literaturwissenschaft zur Kultur- und Textwissenschaft? Wohin gehen die
Literaturwissenschaften?

Journal Announcement: Feministische Studien 24 (2006), 1
Den Schwerpunkt dieses Heftes bilden Fragen nach dem Geschlecht in der Geschichte des
naturwissenschaftlichen Wissenssystems und seiner Arbeitsweisen. Als soziale Kategorie wurde
Geschlecht in der Wissenschaftsgeschichte in den letzten Jahren breit diskutiert, unter anderem, um zu
verstehen, mit welchen sozialstrukturellen, kulturellen und berufspolitischen Barrieren Frauen bei
Sommer 2006
ihrem Zugang zur Wissenschaft konfrontiert waren. Mit der kulturellen Kategorie Geschlecht lassen
sich Arbeitsbeziehungen einer wissenschaftlichen Disziplin oder Institution und die Rolle von
Geschlechterdifferenz als Habitus analysieren. Dabei geht es auch um die Frage, wie die
wissenschaftlichen Akteure ihre Arbeitsweisen selbst als männlich oder weiblich kodieren. Geschlecht
ist nicht zuletzt eine epistemologische Kategorie. Prinzipiell ist wissenschaftliches Wissen genauso
anfällig wie jedes kulturelle Phänomen für Deutungen, die explizit oder implizit mit den ubiquitären,
meist dichotomen Geschlechterstereotypen arbeiten. Geschlechterbilder lassen sich in zahlreichen
Prozessen der Generierung naturwissenschaftlichen Wissens ebenso aufzeigen wie in der Deutung von
Forschungsergebnissen. Dies gilt zumal dort, wo Geschlecht, Sexualität und Fortpflanzung selbst zum
Forschungsgegenstand werden. Kritisch untersucht wird dies in diesem Heft unter anderem an der
rassen- und geschlechterpolitischen Indienstnahme biowissenschaftlicher Forschung.

Conference Announcement: Gender and Citizenship in a Multicultural Context
6th European Gender Research Conference.
University of Lódz, Poland - 31 August to 3 September 2006
The conference is a triennial event organized by the Association of Institutions for Feminist Education
and Research in Europe (AOIFE). Previous European Feminist Research Conferences were held at the
universities of: Aalborg (1991), Graz (1994), Coimbra (1997), Bologna (2000) and Lund (2003).
Continuing this tradition, the 6th European Gender Research Conference plans to be a high-level,
interdisciplinary event focused on gender research in a wide but well-defined range of thematic areas:
• changing concepts and practices of citizenship in relation to gender issues in Europe,
• interrelations between concepts and structures of citizenship and European multicultural
contexts defined as intersections of race, ethnicity, sexuality, class, nationality, religion, etc.,
• gender, science and technology and global citizenship,
• gender and participation in political and economic processes.
Full information on this event is available at http://www.gender2006.pl/
Submissions Policy for Europen News: Please send announcements of events in the fields of German and
Women’s studies taking place in Europe to Tanja Nusser, nusser@uni-greifswald.de, and Kirsten Harjes.

~ WiG Bibliography ~
This is a listing of books from 2005 to May 2006 that may be of interest to WiGgies. I have organized
2006 separately from 2005. The 2005 section targets books that were not listed in the 2003 - August
2005 WiG Bibliography. There is generally a time lag of 2.5 months until releases are in US
databases.
A note on the creation of this list:
I used two electronic search engines and the following search terms:
Melvyl, the University of California nine library search engine with the terms: German*; Austria*;
Swiss; Switzerland in both keyword and in title searches.
The catalog of the Gemeinsamer Bibliotheksverbund with the terms Geschlecht*, Feminism*, and
Frau* as keywords.
These searches netted me ca. 3500 citations, from which I culled ca. 350, responding to commentary
that the last WiG Bibliography was too comprehensive to be convenient.
While the computer selection is algorithmic, my human selection is "expert" to some degree or
another. I made my selections based primarily on: general topic -- of overall feminist Germanist
interest; more specific topic -- if I know that active WiGgies work on particular areas; press; author -for example, authors whose work I know to be of interest. Such choice, especially when culling from
3500 to 350, entails risk; please be assured that I made the decisions that I did with the best intentions.
The formatting of the Bibliography, which is in accordance with Chicago 15A, is not entirely
internally consistent due to the differences in cataloguing between Melvyl and the GBV. These
differences have the advantage of revealing the origin of the citation, information that I find
interesting as a way to get a sense of which US feminist texts are impacting the German landscape.
James Spohrer who runs the German (and other) Collection of UC Berkeley has been of invaluable
assistance in this project. Jim has also provided the following list of smaller presses whose websites
might be of interest for new releases:
Ariadne / Argument in Hamburg
Edition Ebersbach in Berlin
Frauenoffensive in Munich
Göttert in Rüsselsheim
Helmer in Königstein
Konkursbuch, Tübingen
Männerschwarmskript (homosexuality only) in Hamburg
Milena in Vienna
Orlanda in Berlin
Querverlag (homosexuality and lesbianism) in Berlin
Michael Mönnich at the Karlsruhe University Library who works on the Karlsruher Virtuelle Katalog
(among other projects) has also been very helpful.
Moreover, as you may know, we are considering possible future shapes for this Bibliography. Eric
Rentschler of Harvard University suggests that there is no ready single source that would provide a
current list of new publications on German cinema. He suggests the monthly list of new publications
in epd Film; the website filmzeit.de; and the journals Medienwissenschaft, Rezensionen, and Filmblatt.
Finally, while I compiled this particular Bibliography and take full responsibility for its content and
omissions, Sarah McGaughey is partnering on this project. Sarah and I would also like to thank many
WiGgies, notably Beverly Weber, Lisabeth Hock, and our fearless instigator, Sara Lennox.

Sommer 2006
~ 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, publish an e-newsletter and an
annual journal, confer an annual prize for the best dissertation, and offer limited research travel funding for
graduate students. The dissertation prize is funded from the Women in German Memorial Fund, established
in 1993 to honor the memory of Sydna “Bunny” Weiss. As WiG lost other dear friends—Sigrid Brauner,
Ann Clark Fehn, Konstanze Bäumer, Marilyn Sibley Fries—the fund was rededicated to the memory of all
treasured WiG members now deceased. A separate fund for graduate student research travel was
established in honor of Susanne Zantop.
In 2004, WiG decided to establish a new research award and to rename the original Memorial
Fund. It is now The Memorial Fund for Research Awards, to be used to fund the WiG dissertation prize as
well as a new award for the best article by a WiG member. The Zantop Travel Fund will continue to fund
graduate student research travel.
WiG has been recognized by the IRS as a 501 (c) (3) tax-exempt organization. Thus, contributions
to WiG are tax-deductible.
