Through its annual conference, panels at national professional meetings, and through the publication of the Women in German Yearbook, the organization promotes feminist scholarship of outstanding quality. Women in German is committed to making school and college curricula inclusive and seeks to create bridges, cross boundaries, nurture aspirations, and challenge assumptions while exercising critical self– awareness. Women in German is dedicated to eradicating discrimination in the classroom and in the teaching profession at all levels. WiG Bulletins In Memory of Jill Anne Kowalik, 19492003 Jill Kowalik died on October 30, 2003, as a consequence of the metastatic breast cancer that she had lived with for 14 years. Jill did everything she could to stay alive and to continue her environmental work, her scholarship, her friendships, and family relationships. When she died, she was one of the most chemo-therapied individuals in the country, having tried a broad variety of drug regimens to combat the tumors that showed up in her spine, her liver, her bones, her bone marrow, and finally in her brain. She also underwent and survived two bone marrow transplants in her pursuit of treatment. Her pursuit was successful in that she survived for 14 years with a strain of breast cancer that has been shown to have an almost 100% morbidity rate within 3-5 years. During these 14 years, she remained an active scholar, publishing, giving papers, teaching, and exchanging ideas with scholars. She was also well-know among WiG members and in the general scholarly community for her mentoring activities and her efforts to promote younger scholars, both women and men. Finally, Jill was a great friend to many of us, and we have now lost her wisdom, her wit, and the care and attention with which she tried to make the world right for those whom she loved. Gail K. Hart, University of California Irvine WiG Newsletter Editor Search The present editors of the WiG Newsletter, Lisa Roetzel and Brenda Bethman, are ready to step down after several years of excellent service. Thank you, Lisa and Brenda! The plan is for Lisa to rotate off in fall 2004 and Brenda in spring 2005. Nominations or applications for either position should reach Jeanette Clausen ([email protected]) by September 15, 2004. The WiG Newsletter is published three times a year. Deadlines for submissions are February 15, May 1, and November 1. The fall and spring newsletters are e-mailed to members and published on the WiG web site (password-protected). The summer issue is published in hard copy and mailed first-class to members. The Newsletter coeditors: • Work with editors of various sections of the Newsletter (calls for papers, bibliography, personal news, etc.) to collect material for publication and assist section editors as needed to solicit information and contributions. Once materials are received, the editors verify details as needed and edit for consistency. • Solicit information from Steering Committee members, Treasurer, and others for information on policy, grant deadlines, special projects, etc. for publication in the Newsletter. • Coordinate electronic publication of the Newsletter with the Webmistresses and notify WiG members when it’s available and, for the summer print edition, work with the printer to publish it. The editors meet with the Steering Committee and other WiG officers the day before the annual WiG Conference to conduct any necessary business related to the Newsletter. Editing the Newsletter is a great way to keep abreast of what’s going on in German Studies while getting to know a lot of interesting people and making a contribution to WiG. The editors must be WiG members. Experience with editing and electronic transmission of documents is desirable. If you want more information, feel free to contact either Brenda ([email protected]) or Lisa Women in German ([email protected]). Remember, applications should reach Jeanette Clausen by September 15, 2004 ([email protected]). New WiG Yearbook Coeditor The members of the Search Committee are pleased to announce that Helga Kraft, Head of the Department of Germanic Studies at the University of Illinois at Chicago, has been selected as the new coeditor of the Women in German Yearbook. She will serve a three-year term (2004-07), working with Marjorie Gelus. Helga brings extensive editing experience and a strong publication record as well as seemingly boundless energy and creativity to the task of editor. Long-time WiG members will remember the WIG conferences Helga organized at the Ponce de Leon Conference Center in Florida. Those of you who have followed her career recently know that she transformed the UIC German Department into a Department of Germanic Studies with a new program and curriculum, including a Ph.D. in Germanic Studies. Her department and the Dean of Liberal Arts and Sciences have promised generous support for Helga and the Yearbook. Helga will begin her three-year term as coeditor sometime during summer 2004. Please join me and the Search Committee in congratulating Helga on her appointment. Also, please thank Ruth-Ellen Joeres, who has been coeditor since 2001, for her unstinting support of the Yearbook. Congratulations, Helga! Jeanette Clausen Make a Donation to the WiG Zantop Challenge Fund! Women in German has been approached by a private non-profit foundation with a chance to earn a matching grant in the amount of $10,000 for funding the Zantop Travel Prize. The organization would be required to match this amount by donations within a certain deadline, probably two years. This fund of circa *$20,000 would become the beginning of an endowment for the Travel Prize. The foundation wishes to remain anonymous. This is an exciting development and opportunity for our organization. It would allow us to give the Travel Prize on a recurring basis and to 2 ensure its continuance in the future. It will be a great development tool for Women in German, because this matching opportunity will show our fiscal responsibility to other donors. It will be a bonus for all graduate students working in feminist German studies to have this Travel Prize as an endowed grant. The Zantop Challenge Grant now stands at $4,635.86. We are more than one year into the Challenge, and we want to make sure that we take advantage of this wonderful opportunity to fund our feminist students far into the future. Please consider making a substantial donation this tax year as well as the next. Jeannine Blackwell, WiG President Conference Site 2006-2008 The time to start thinking about our next conference site is now! The WiG conference moves every three years to highlight a different part of the country, and conference sites often book a year in advance. Our last year in Kentucky will be 2005. If you are interested in hosting the WiG conference, now is the time to start investigating possibilities. Conferences require volunteers, and it is therefore very helpful to be able to access a number of WiG members clustered in one area; past conference organizers have also found institutional support to be a big plus. WiG has historically attempted to rotate geographical areas for the conference. Recent conferences have been on the west coast and the Midwest, which means that, ideally, interest in hosting the next conference would come from a group on the east coast or in the south. Please contact Jeannine Blackwell ([email protected]) if you are interested in possibly hosting the next WiG Conference! Women in German Dissertation Prize The Award Every year Women in German publishes a call for dissertations by WiG members to be considered for the Women in German Dissertation Prize of $500.

Spillers Difference gives form to the world, articulates the features of reality as distinct, legible, and accessible. But all differential relations — all fixed binaries and boundaries — are vulnerable to rupture. What we understand to be given or coherent threatens to dissolve into an infinite spiral of undifferentiated chaos. What does it mean, then, to conjure difference? Is it to confirm the consistency of reality, the stability of binary categories? Or does conjuring difference create a space where difference won’t hold, where all binaries are haunted by the ghost of the other, where the possibility emerges of a new difference — or of no difference at all? We encourage abstracts that interrogate and problematize the phrase “Conjuring Difference” from a wide range of fields and interests. Topics may include but are not limited to: • Psychoanalysis and Race • Communal memory, mythmaking, & cultural identity • Whose muse?: inspiration and invocation • Border crossings, interstitial spaces • Sex/Text(uality) • Politicizing (dis)identification • Identity as self-difference • Fetishizing the exotic • The unconscious and the social order • (Re)figuring the feminine • The unstable utterance • Class-ifying gender Send 1-2 page, double-spaced abstracts by July 2, 2004 to: 2004 Graduate Conference: “Conjuring Difference” Tufts English Graduate Organization East Hall, Department of English Tufts University Medford, MA 02155 Email: [email protected] Visit the website at http://ase.tufts.edu/tego The Future of Identity: An Interdisciplinary Conference (Graduate Conference) September 9-10, 2004, Salford, UK This conference aims to consider the notion of identity on a personal, national and global level. We will investigate identity as a social and political construction and examine the way in which traditional understandings of the term are changing as we move into a new millennium. We will be considering textual and multi-media representations of identity alongside social, political and historical research. Some of the broad themes we will cover are: • National/Sexual/Ethnic Identity in the 21st Century • The Fragmentation of Identity • Identity/Difference • Identity in a Global World • Representations of Identity Proposals are invited on these topics or on work that interprets the conference theme more broadly.

Your online resources columnist does not have to work very hard on this particular column: Pointers to fascinating clicks have been appearing on my desktop with great explanatory comments. Herbert Hrachovec, Anna Babka, Gerald Posselt und Natascha Gruber präsentieren ein webbasiertes Forschungsprojekt aus dem Bereich der Gender Studies. Ziel des Projekts ist die transdisziplinäre Verknüpfung und Kontrastierung zentraler zeitgenössischer Theorieansätze - wie Dekonstruktion und Systemtheorie - mit Blick auf die Konstruktion von Geschlecht. Die Website will Gemeinsamkeiten und Unterschiede deutlich machen und eine Orientierungshilfe im Dschungel der Geschlechter(de)konstruktivismen geben.” (From Orange 94.0 - Das freie Radio in Wien, »Philosophische Brocken«) Joey Horsley directed my attention to www.fembio.org: “A selection from Luise F. Pusch’s biographical database and about 150 women’s biographies are currently online at www.fembio.org, and both are in process of further development Fembio: Institut für Frauenbiographieforschung /Institute for Women’s Biography offers: 1. An international database of some 750 notable women with biographical information that can be searched according to birth and death dates, nationality, occupation and numerous other attributes. Plans are to increase the online offerings steadily based on the extant database of 30,000 women compiled by Prof. Luise F. Pusch, German linguist and biographer. 2. Some 150 biographical articles on notable women of all eras and many countries, many available in both English and German. Each week a new biography is added. Plans are to make all available in English as well as German. 3. Book reviews on topics relevant to women’s biography.” And the H-German list, moderated by HGerman Editor Paul Steege, sent out information on this fascinating website: “The newsletter of the SPD’s leadership-in-exile Sozialistische Mitteilungen (1939-1948) is now available on line. 9 The Friedrich-Ebert-Foundation has recently placed the entire run of the Sozialistische Mitteilungen (SM), published from 1939-1948, online (http://library.fes.de/sozialistischemitteilungen/). This unabridged and fully annotated edition includes more than 50 supplements that appeared with the newsletter as well as detailed information concerning individuals and organizations mentioned in the text. After Neuer Vorwaerts ceased publication in the spring of 1940 the SM became the official organ of the SPD-in-exile during the Second World War. For the SM’s editorial board the main task of the newsletter throughout its existence was to educate the public about the hated National Socialist regime, to demand its destruction and the punishment of its leaders, and, at the same time, to set Social Democracy apart from Communism. SM is by far the most important historical source for anyone interested in the content of the SPD leadership’s politics in exile. Once back in Germany, the executive wanted to be able to account for its actions to the party and regarded the SM as its most important ‘exhibit’ (Hans Vogel, 1945) in that effort. The newsletter placed the leadership’s outlook and actions on the record in their entirety. Bibliographical information: Heiner Lindner: Erkaempft Eure Freiheit! Stuerzt Hitler!

Vibeke Rützou Petersen. Women and Modernity in Weimar Germany: Reality and Representation in Popular Fiction. New York: Berghahn Books, 2001. Petersen addresses the complex intersection of the modern woman, popular media and modernity. She holds history and fiction in a delicate balance as she demonstrates the intricate relationship between reality and representation suggested in the title. Moreover, as Petersen claims, her book “is an effort to bring into view a literary field—the popular fiction of the Weimar Republic—that has been largely ignored in scholarship” (12). As Petersen eloquently shows, popular culture contributed as much to the fabrication of the modern woman as it did to providing a space to address (and experiment with) nontraditional lifestyles and social practices. It became the setting for working through the new choices that confronted its protagonists. At the same time, popular fiction offered a wide range of references for identification and thus expanded the repertoire of gender that translated into new typologies. The variety of texts, Petersen claims, allowed the female reader “to reflect upon her own life and identity insofar as they created ways for her to participate in modernity” (28). Yet, while popular texts incorporated and exploited progressive themes, they often betrayed them in seeking to stabilize social relations. Her critical readings of a wealth of texts uncover the tensions that marked the interwar years. In a time caught between the disintegration of traditional social norms and the fierce efforts to retain them, topics such as gender, marriage, Women in German sexuality, and family values found obsessive examination during the Weimar Republic. In order to illustrate these pressures, Petersen presents the topics hotly debated and performs nuanced readings of well-known works by authors such as Keun, Baum and Brück, as well as lesser-known authors, and of the ways in which these works tackle choices that the modern woman faced. Petersen reads these texts with a sensitive eye toward the social/historical periphery that turned the private sphere and the modern woman into a central site of political contestation. With the increased possibilities for women’s participation in the labor force and in leisure activities, representations of work and play fueled many popular narratives. In chapter three, Petersen uncovers an uncanny link between these two spheres brought on by technological developments that changed perception as much as it did the work environment. The rationalization of the body can be seen in the workplace as well as in regimes of physical exercise or on stage. The “rationalized female” was a product of the city and of middle-class culture, which explains the paucity of representations of working class women. The fantasy that popular fiction provided was social mobility; it was embedded in a specific attitude that defined women according to capital’s demands. Petersen’s rendering of Weimar’s popular fiction includes a chapter on representations of lesbians, Jews, and blacks, and explores how “otherness” was marketed and understood. Most importantly, she questions “what opportunities did [these representations] afford a reader’s understanding of her own identity and the process of self-fashioning” as they moved between breaking with the “heteronormative paradigm,” testing social constraints or affirming stereotypes (92). For those readers of Woman and Modernity in Weimar Germany whose appetites have been whetted, Petersen provides an extensive appendix with titles and synopses for further reading. It is a book that I will return to often and recommend to my students. As can be seen, the fascination with Weimar’s modern woman continues to arouse contemporary curiosity and produce exemplary scholarship. Barbara Kosta University of Arizona 10 Chandra Talpade Mohanty. Feminism Without Borders: Decolonizing Theory, Practicing Solidarity. Durham: Duke UP, 2003. $21.95. Chandra Talpade Mohanty’s collection of essays from “almost two decades of engagement with feminist struggles” (1) offers examples for a feminist theory and methodology, strategies for a political practice, as well as concrete suggestions for feminist pedagogies. Mohanty exemplifies a feminist practice for the new millennium by insisting that theory always takes place in a certain location as well as at a certain point in history. She demands “a transnational, anticapitalist feminist critique […] that draws on historical materialism, […] centralizes racialized gender,” (231) and moves without borders. By following Mohanty’s feminist involvement over almost two decades, the book offers an overview of the developments of postcolonial feminist critique and practice. Framed by two essays, Under Western Eyes: Feminist Scholarship and Colonial Discourses, first published in 1986 as one of the first and most radical postcolonial poststructuralist critiques of western feminisms, and “Under Western Eyes” Revisited: Feminist Solidarity Through Anticapitalist Struggles, Mohanty divides her collection in two main parts. The first part, Decolonializing Feminism, gives various examples of a poststructuralist postcolonial critique and practice, and argues for “an analysis that is made possible by the precise challenges posed by “race” and postcolonial studies to the second wave of white Western feminisms” (45). In the second part of the book, Demystifying Capitalism Mohanty focuses on “feminist anticapitalist critique to economic globalization and neoliberalism” (45). On the basis of anticapitalist critique she demands, conceptualizes, and imagines feminist solidarities. Aside from containing some of the most important essays in contemporary feminist theory, this book contributes significantly to issues debated and theorized in the context of Feminist German Studies. Mohanty combines questions of nation and citizenship with textual analyses and feminist historiographies, pedagogies with questions of academic institutionalization and appropriation, and globalization with the urgent task of re-imagining feminist solidarities. In the following, I will give some examples from her essays that appear to be especially useful in envisioning a future for Feminist German Studies. 11 Women in German One of the challenges of Feminist German Studies is to develop a critical perspective on “Fortress Europe.” Mohanty discusses questions of citizenship, immigration and the state and offers examples for various strategies of how “aliens” are governed, controlled and oppressed. Connected to her theorization of the nation state and a feminist critique of its racialized and gendered practices, Mohanty discusses such controversial feminist issues as the notions of home and belonging. Her demand for a feminist historiography can be applied to the context of German Studies. Facing increasingly racist immigration policies, continued discussions about Leitkultur, and the problematic discourses around multiculturalism, this task in fact seems urgent: One of the tasks of feminist analysis is uncovering alternative, nonidentical histories that challenge and disrupt the spatial and temporal location of a hegemonic history. (116) The article co-authored with Biddy Martin gives an example of a textual analysis that takes these questions of location, history and exclusion into account and disrupts hegemonic histories on various different levels. Biddy Martin and Chandra Talpade Mohanty read, analyze and discuss Minnie Bruce Pratt’s contribution to the volume Three Feminist Perspectives on Anti-Semitism and Racism entitled “Identity: Skin, Blood, Home” (1984) and relate it to their own experiences around questions of “home” and identity. This text offers one of the few examples of a team-written article about a literary text that consciously reflects the different positions of two scholars, concluding that on the level of the text, as well as on the level of the analytic project “change has to do with the transgression of these boundaries” (97). This article can be read as a pledge for collaborative projects in the humanities, which become especially important facing the challenges of interdisciplinarity. It offers an example of how to foster a political and feminist discussion about literature. In her influential article “Pedagogies of Dissent” Mohanty formulates the crucial questions posed for feminists teaching within the academy. She attempts to develop a strategy that will help us “teach about the West and its others so that education becomes the practice of liberation” (200). This leads Mohanty to conclude with what remains one of the most challenging tasks for a feminist pedagogy: The point is not simply that one should have a voice; the more crucial question concerns the sort of voice one comes to have as a result of *one’s location, both as an individual and as part of a collective. (216) Last but not least, Mohanty critically reflects on the position of feminists within the academy, making workspaces one of the sites of feminist struggles and political negotiations. She is not afraid of taking up the pressing question of difference and appropriation: Eurocentric and cultural relativist (postmodern) models of scholarship and teaching are easily assimilated within the logic of late capitalism because this is fundamentally a logic of seeming decentralization and accumulation of differences. (244) Her final emphasis on anticapitalist struggles allows her to argue convincingly for a position that is neither relativist nor essentialist, but based on careful and critical historic, economic, and cultural analysis. She concludes by pointing out the possibilities, as well as the challenges we are facing as teachers, scholars, and feminists: “Our minds must be as ready to move as capital is, to trace its paths and to imagine alternative destinations” (251). The final article in the collection “Under Western Eyes” Revisited: Feminist Solidarity Through Anticapitalist Struggles, leaves the pressing question of how to imagine these anticapitalist struggles and solidarities unanswered. In spite of distancing herself from the tradition of poststructuralism, the openness and deconstructive approach suggest that Mohanty’s work can in fact be seen within these very paradigms. She politicizes the notion of difference, however, by pointing out once and again, that “differences are never just ‘differences’” (226). Mohanty concludes by demanding a transnational feminist practice that challenges and deconstructs borders in the classroom, the academy, and in our analysis. This kind of teaching, reading, and writing can help us search for alternative destinations, different spaces, and new histories and asks us to question the borders of German Studies and Germany, as well as the walls of the Fortress Europe.

Your submissions will help build the workshops, so they are vital! Workshop 1: PUBLISHING: Getting it Published. Coordinator: Stephanie George, Assistant Managing Editor, Texas A&M University Press. Contact: [email protected]. Phone 979-845-0758. This workshop is for those working on their first book manuscript. It will include discussion of how to identify and approach a potential publisher; how to create an effective proposal package; what to expect from the review process; what a contract means; and special considerations for those compiling collections or anthologies. Workshop 2: PEDAGOGY: Disabilities in the Classroom. Coordinators: Rachel Freudenburg, Boston College; Sonja E. Klocke, Indiana University, and Almut Spalding, Illinois College. Contact: [email protected]. Phone 617-552-3745. This workshop is for college and university teachers at all levels of experience. It will provide a resource folder, an introduction to disabilities and the ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act), and an overview of the types of services available at various colleges and universities. Finally, in a more hands-on, pragmatic exercise, participants will pool their expertise to adapt their curriculum to students with disabilities. Women in German 28 Friday, October 22 (cont.) Important Note: When registering for this workshop, please indicate what experience you have had with disabilities in the classroom (for example, “none,” “none, but am interested in learning about dyslexia,” “have worked with students with ADD”). This will help the coordinators organize the hands-on exercises for optimal productivity. Only registered participants will receive the resource folder. Workshop 3. Building a Teaching Portfolio/Writing a Statement of Teaching Philosophy. Coordinator: Linda Kraus Worley, University of Kentucky. Contact: [email protected]. Phone 859-257-1198. We will examine typical strengths and weaknesses of teaching portfolios as identified by hiring and area committees. Participants will gain a sense of what makes a successful portfolio. Individual questions and reviews of a draft teaching statement are part of the workshop. Workshop 4. Job Letters, Dossier, and Interview Preparation. Coordinator: Marjanne Goozé, University of Georgia. Contact: [email protected]. Phone 706-542-2450. The workshop will provide general guidance and advice on CV and cover letter writing, and discuss interviewing techniques and preparation. Participants may bring sample cover letters and CVs. Given time and volunteers, there may be opportunities to receive individualized help and conduct mock interviews. Help needed: Sample CVs and cover letters are needed. If you are a recent Ph.D. or have saved your initial CV and cover letter(s), would you be willing to share them at the conference? Your name will be removed. If you can help, please send a copy to Marjanne Goozé ([email protected]). Workshop 5. Acting for Academics. Coordinator: Wendy Arons, University of Notre Dame. Contact: [email protected]. Phone 574-631-7150. It’s not enough to write a brilliant conference paper—we have to present it brilliantly, too! Most academics—unless they were budding actors in childhood—have never learned the basics of vocal technique. As a result, often great scholarship goes literally unheard. Want to work on your delivery? This workshop will be a chance to learn some fundamental exercises for improving vocal projection and diction, and to get individualized feedback on how to both write and deliver a conference paper that will get your scholarship the attention it deserves. Send (in advance) the first page of a recently written conference presentation. Note that there is a separate registration form for the workshops. You can register online by visiting the WiG web page, or use the form at the end of this conference program. 29 Women in German Friday, October 22 (cont.) 4:30-6:00pm POSTER SESSION.

To this end, we sponsor the annual WiG conference, distribute a quarterly newsletter, publish an annual journal, confer an annual prize for the best dissertation, and offer limited research funding for graduate students. The dissertation prize is funded from the Women in German Memorial Fund, established in 1993 to honor the memory of Sydna “Bunny” Weiss, and later rededicated to the memory of all treasured WiG members now deceased. As WiG lost other dear friends, Sigrid Brauner, Ann Clark Fehn, Konstanze Bäumer, Marilyn Sibley Fries, and Susanne Zantop. The memorial fund has built up to a level sufficient to sustain the dissertation prize for several years into the future. The Zantop Fund, created specifically for graduate student travel, has the opportunity to become self-sustaining if we are able to meet the challenge of raising $10,000 to be matched by an anonymous donor. Therefore, we are asking members to designate their donations to the Zantop Challenge Fund through the end of next year, in order to endow the fund. By focusing our giving on one fund for this limited period of time, we stand to gain greater flexibility in the future. WiG has been recognized by the IRS as a 501 (c) (3) tax-exempt organization. Thus, contributions to WiG are tax-deductible. Donor Categories up to $50 up to $100 up to $250 up to $500 up to $1,000 over $1,000 Friend Associate Supporter Sponsor Benefactor Sustaining Patron Thank you for your support of Women in German!
