Journal Poetics - Literature and Media in the Age of Goethe

EU-Projekt „Journal Poetics - Literature and Media in the Age of Goethe” (Verona, Wien, London), 2023-2025

The Age of Goethe (1770-1830) refers to a time of important social change in Europe and involves a vast array of literary production that is generally perceived as male intellectual literature. Funded by the Marie Skłodowska Curie Actions programme, the Journal Poetics project aims to broaden this perception by including a larger circle of authors who published their work, not in books, but in contemporary periodicals. This will include many female authors whose writings were expressly published in journals at the time. The project will combine knowledge of literary history with journal and gender studies. A website will make the results available to a wider public.
