7th Workshop of the Cultural History of the Hunt Research Network
Online (via Zoom), 3 May 2024

Proposals due by 28 February 2024

The Cultural History of the Hunt research network (Netzwerk Jagdgeschichten) was founded in the summer of 2021 to promote academic exchange on the history of hunting. By viewing the topic of hunting from a transdisciplinary perspective, we aim to critically examine the role of hunting in the constitution, transformation, and perpetuation of the culture/nature-divide and related binary hierarchies. This international network brings together researchers at different career stages and consciously understands itself as open to a variety of research approaches regardless of their methodological, regional, and temporal framework, as well as their points of view concerning animal ethics.

The 7th meeting is thematically open. The workshop is intended to encourage an exchange regarding all questions from the field of cultural-historical research on hunting. Please send your proposals for a 20- to 30-minute contribution (maximum 200 words) and a short CV to Laura Beck (laura.beck@germanistik.uni-hannover.de) and Maurice Saß (maurice.sass@alanus.edu) before 28 February 2024.
