Wissenschaftlicher Werdegang

Sabine Hanke completed her PhD in History at the University in Sheffield, UK, in January 2021. Her research was centered on the national and imperial ramifications of the modern British and German circus during the interwar period. She is currently preparing her first monograph based on her thesis with Manchester University Press. Prior to joining the University of Tübingen, she was a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Duisburg-Essen’s Section on Global Mobility, spanning the 18th to 20th centuries, where she also conducted courses in Modern History. In her current research project, she continues her interests in Human-Animal Studies, which have also informed her thesis. Her present focus centers on delving into the role played by birds of paradise in the colonial context of New Guinea throughout the long nineteenth century. Sabine is keenly interested in collaborating with museums and public initiatives to shed light on the postcolonial history and its profound impact on society. She is particularly dedicated to exploring the intricate narratives surrounding histories of display and representation.
