person.introductionMy research engages with issues of race, gender, colonialism, and imperialism in young adult literature to show how Imperial Germans learned to be German in a global context. I am currently writing a dissertation on colonialism and imperialism in popular youth literature of Wilhelmine Germany. Entitled “Young Germans in the World,” it examines literature set in Germany, Africa, North and South America, and remote islands from authors such as Bertha Clément, Brigitte Augusti, Friedrich Pajeken, Karl Falkenhorst, Karl May, Friedrich Meister, and Else Ury.<br>I have previously held a Pre-Doctoral Fellowship to the Department of German and Russian Languages and Literatures at the University of Notre Dame, a Fulbright U.S. Student Grant to Germany and a University Fellowship from UMass Amherst. I completed my dissertation research with awards from DAAD, the Children’s Literature Association, and Women in German.
