CONFERENCE PROGRAM (CLICK HERE)

Sept. 28-29, 2016 CSULB German will host a conference on Brecht and Kleist reception since the two authors’ deaths in 1956 and 1811 respectively. The conference commemorates the afterlives and influences of Brecht and Kleist in the US, is intended for both students and scholars, and will be open to the general public. The influences of these two authors span far more than only the field of German Literature, including a diverse range of disciplines, such as Theater, Film, Music, and Comparative Literature. The conference will be accompanied by musical and theatrical performances and two film screenings.

All papers will be presented in English; films will be shown with subtitles.
