Our Research Training Group has just published the proceedings of the lectures held during the first three years of our project (2020–2023). The volume is edited by Ronald G. Asch, Peter Eich and Elisabeth M. Piller. The contributions cover various topics regarding imperial temporality, the visualisations of imperial power, and post-imperial orders.
The PhD students in our Research Training Group just launched the website “Imperial Moments. An Anthology”. Professor Elisabeth Piller planned and coordinated the whole project.
The website gives an overview of the various research projects in our RTG.
We would be excited if some of you took the time to browse and discover our research.
Congratulations to Cornelius Beckers for publishing his essey “‘I too in couplets would attempt to paint / Our varied woes, and versify complaint’: Poetic Form and Knowledge in Early Nineteenth-Century Satirical Poetry by East India Company Employees, Global Nineteenth-Century Studies 3,1 (2024), 51–64.” (https://doi.org/10.3828/gncs.2024.4)

Our RTG is very honoured to have Professor Carolyn J. Eichner from the University of Wisconsin–Milwaukee as a guest this week.
As part of our colloquium, she will present one of her current projects, "Marked by the State: French Jews, Algerian Muslims, and the Surname”. Since this is a rare opportunity for a German audience to meet a professor, we are opening the talk to the public.
We are very excited that our PhD student, Verena Zabel, has just published her article “Atomwaffen? Nein danke“ at the Wochentaz. <https://t1p.de/vz-taz>
Aditionaly, Verena will moderate the section „Nukleare Steppe“ at the taz lab on 27. April 2024.
