European Studies program lecture

Heinrich Heine is one of Germany and Europe’s greatest Romantic poets. Yet Heine was gradually removed from the canon of German letters between the late nineteenth century and the National Socialist regime. Why?

Professor Bernd Kortländer, a leading specialist on the poet, explores the elements of Heine’s oeuvre that clashed with the cultural politics of various nationalist standpoints. Heine’ s famous poem, “Loreley,” illustrates these various phases of reception, including its virulent rejection by the Nazis, who strove to erase Heine completely from German literary tradition.

Co-sponsored by the Department of Languages, Literatures & Cultures

Nov. 2 at 4:00 pm in 037 Memorial Hall

European Studies program lecture

In this talk based on his book Midnight at the Pera Palace: The Birth of Modern Istanbul, Charles King sheds light on the early history of the Turkish Republic and, more broadly, the moment in European history when Westerners were often needy immigrants and Easterners their reluctant hosts. The interwar years were an era of urban reinvention and imperial collapse, but they were also what King calls the hidden Islamic jazz age: a moment when the center of the Ottoman Empire began to transform itself into a modern metropolis. Through war, regime change, and refugee flight, Istanbul emerged as a new kind of cosmopolitan center.

Co-sponsored with the Islamic Studies program, the College of Arts and Sciences, and the Center for Global and Area Studies.
