- **Event Description**: The latest in German studies research from leading scholars.About this EventThursday, March 26, 2026: Hannah EldridgeHannah Eldridge is Professor of German at the University of Wisconsin-Madison where she also edits the scholarly journal Monatshefte.The (Germanophone) Poem and the (Connected) WorldI bring discussions of lyric poetry and its affordances together with thinking about race and identity, specifically through postcolonial theory and poetics. Drawing on Édouard Glissant’s conception of “Relation” as multidirectional and dynamic interconnection, I trace paths from Rainer Maria Rilke in Paris to Algeria, Sudan, and the Caribbean. In doing so, I aim to re-think the canon and the margins of German poetry as porous and open to contestation. This means both expanding definitions of “Germanness” and setting Germanophone and other language texts into relation, tracking routes of mutual strangeness and influence.Held in conjunction with the , an endowed research and public engagement professorship at the University of Waterloo.The lecture is followed by a reception - by registering, you're helping us with reception planning.Looking for parking?There is free parking in three lots near the Balsillie School of International Affairs:1) Erb Lot (formerly known as Museum Lot) - located directly across from Balsillie on the corner of Father David Bauer and Erb st W.2) Waterloo Town Square - there is parking available on the north and south sides of the Waterloo Town Square.
