I’m currently on a one-person study tour through the US to research the ongoing presidential elections. I will post larger, in depth-pieces to American Studies Leipzig’s election blog and will use my personal blog below to report on the everyday encounters. More information on my journey is also available in this news item. Please enjoy reading, and please comment or ask questions.
On Thursday, January 14, Gesine Wegner, doctoral fellow at ASL and recipient of the 2020 Martin-Schüwer Publication Award for Excellence in Comic Studies, will give a public talk as part of the Lecture Series “Wer ist dieser Herr Gender?!”
Per the university leadership’s decision, all teaching—including digital formats—will be suspended between Dec. 17 and Jan. 10.

Please join us for Picador Professor Okana Marafioti’s reading on Thursday, December 10, 7pm! The reading will take place digitally, available on the offical Picador website (please click here) and on the Facebook page of Leipzig University (please click here).
