Project seminar
Dr. Torsten König (TU Dresden): Utopia Europe - Digital Utopia?
What impact does digital change have on society and the environment? How can the global developments associated with digitalization be placed in a European context? Which digital utopias can be designed, which risks need to be critically scrutinized and discussed? The Office for University Cooperation of the Institute Français Deutschland and the Franco-German University have launched a debating competition at German universities for the 2020 summer semester on the topic of "Utopia Europe - Digital Utopia?". Further information on the series of events can be found on the website of the Institute français at: https://institutfrancais.de/kultur/gesellschaft-digitales/digitale-utopie
As part of this call for projects, the seminar participants organized a series of debates on the key issues of digitalization today.
- When: Wednesdays, 3rd DS, 11:10-12:40
- Where: Faculty SLK, online

Conference
"Balzac + Internet = on aime": Classics in the digital context
Organization: PD Dr. Martina Stemberger, in cooperation with the CFF
Digital mediality modifies and updates analog reading patterns and thus radically changes the reception of classical texts in particular. Blogs, forums and social networks are giving 'lay' literary criticism and non-academic debates a new reach; the heterogeneous literary subculture of fanfiction is developing an almost explosive dynamic in the early 21st century. This international and interdisciplinary conference examines the diverse forms of critical and creative (re)reception and réécriture of classical-canonical 'highbrow literature' that have emerged in the digital context of the present.
- When: September 1-2, 2020, postponed
- Where: Alfried Krupp Wissenschaftskolleg, Greifswald, Martin-Luther-Str. 14, 17489 Greifswald
