Exploring Texts: Literary Figurations of Failure aims to uncover the results and re-presentations of literary failures and to discuss these in a welcoming and supportive environment. The theme of "Exploring texts: Literary Figurations of Failure" will be examined in presentations on literature ranging from the 17^th to the 21^st century.

The Winter School will offer broad new perspectives on failure, reflecting on such diverse aspects of failure as: failing as resistance – failures of criticism – failures of representation, and the challenges of methodological failures.

Exploring Texts: Literary Figurations of Failure is open to all and free of charge. Please register by sending the organisers an <link ein fenster zum versenden der>email by Wednesday, 9 October 2013.

We look forward to seeing you.
