Abstract
This contribution reports on the ‘Rewilding German Studies, Rewilding Pedagogies’ event held in January 2024 at the Royal Irish Academy in Dublin under the title ‘Day of Dialogue and Reflection’. As well as describing the day's proceedings, we highlight the main points of discussions that emerged between the participants and give insight into the ecocritical, literary, and philosophical sources that inspired our discussions or proved to be relevant retrospectively. A main concern, as we explain, was to explore alternative routes that help to challenge academic routines and foster self-reflexive thinking about academic practices, while special emphasis was put on embodiment, space, place and collaborative thinking. We present the insights gained on the day and reflect on how these can help to revise disciplinary practice in light of the multiple ecological predicaments of the current age.
期刊介绍:
- German Life and Letters was founded in 1936 by the distinguished British Germanist L.A. Willoughby and the publisher Basil Blackwell. In its first number the journal described its aim as "engagement with German culture in its widest aspects: its history, literature, religion, music, art; with German life in general". German LIfe and Letters has continued over the decades to observe its founding principles of providing an international and interdisciplinary forum for scholarly analysis of German culture past and present. The journal appears four times a year, and a typical number contains around eight articles of between six and eight thousand words each.
