What are the social, political, economic and media conditions under which literature emerges? And what effects does literature have on its immediate environments? These are the issues addressed by the Research Training Group “Literature and the Public Sphere in Differentiated Contemporary Cultures.” It aims to examine contemporary literature since 1945, in different languages and cultural contexts, and with regard to changing and fragmenting public spheres. It is characterized in particular by its praxeological concept of literature, which includes socio-cultural contexts, political frameworks, institutional conditions, the literary world and literary life in its analysis. (University of Erlangen-Nürnberg, speakers: Prof. Dr. Dirk Niefanger, Prof. Dr. Antje Kley)
