The winners and their projects are: Nicola Berhmann Germanic Languages and Literatures, New York University (Paul Fleming) The grant will help support archival research for Nicola’s dissertation project “The Avant-Garde of the Other: Emmy Hennings (1885-1948).” The selection committee was impressed with her plan to sift through previously unexamined materials in several archives in order to develop a coherent account of Emmy Hennings’ biographical data. When completed, the study should offer a new perspective on the Dada movement as well as contributing theoretically to Gender Studies and German Studies. Michelle Duncan Department of German Studies, Cornell University (Michael B. Steinberg) The grant will fund travel to the Freud Archives in Washington, D.C. to consult some recently derestricted interviews that will fill a gap in the research for her dissertation project “Listening for Freud: The Scandals of Voice and the Sounds of Psychoanalysis.” The selection committee admired the scope and complexity of this project, which promises to uncover the relationship between aspects of Freud’s subjectivity and music, specifically opera. Nicole Grewling Department of German, Scandinavian, and Dutch, University of Minnesota (Ruth-Ellen Joeres) The grant will help support research travel for Nicole’s dissertation project “Fighting the Two-Souled Warrior: German Colonial Fantasies of North America.” The selection committee was convinced of the soundness of her plan to examine representations of colonial and interethnic issues in German Jugendliteratur. The chapter on Sophie von Wörishöffer, to be researched in Munich and Berlin, will provide the basis for a crucial piece of Nicole’s argument for expanding on the insights of Susanne Zantop in Colonial Fantasies. Anna Parkinson Department of German Studies, Cornell University (Leslie Adelson) The grant will support archival research for Anna’s dissertation project “Affective Passages: The Politics of Emotion in Postwar German Culture.” The selection committee was impressed with the conceptual and theoretical sophistication of this project, which is expected to contribute to a more comprehensive and nuanced understanding of post-World War II consciousness in Germany. Particularly intriguing is Anna’s research on Ingeborg Bachmann and on “Mütterfilme” to inform an understanding of gender and sexuality in national identity formation. It is gratifying to see such a range of exciting projects underway. We look forward to hearing or reading about the results in the near future.

Christina Gerhardt's new research project, Critique of Violence: The Trauma of Terrorism, examines representations of the Red Army Faction (RAF) in literature, film and art. It has been generously funded by a DAAD summer grant to conduct research at the Center for Contemporary German Literature at Washington University in St. Louis (June 2007), as well as by a Berlin Program Postdoctoral Research Grant (2006-2007) and a Fulbright research grant (2006-2007). Women in German Newsletter 102 (Summer 2006): 20 Women in German Newsletter Sommer 2006 Distinguished Women Scholars Lecture Ruth-Ellen B. Joeres (German and Women’s Studies, University of Minnesota), after having already received the Distinguished Women Scholars Award from the University of Minnesota in 2004, was invited to present the first Distinguished Women Scholars Lecture in the Humanities, Social Sciences, and Arts for the University of Minnesota community on March 21, 2006. Her paper on "The Universal Appeal of the Particular " involves a discussion of the dynamic tension between the particular and the universal that feminism (or perhaps any other discipline that bases itself in part on political and social convictions) represents. The particular here involves the personal, the subjective, the experiential, and the practical, whereas the universal calls to mind the general, the theoretical, and the abstract, Under the rubrics "reading and writing," "theory and theorizing," and "life," she engaged in thinking about both the positive and negative effects of particularizing, how they have affected the role of feminist work in the institution known as the academy—and because this was a discussion of particularity, their effect on her as a feminist scholar and female human being. In that regard, she also offered excerpts from the memoir she is now writing. The distinguished lecture series is not necessarily intended for awardees, but for scholars whom the Graduate School and the Office for University Women wish to honor by selecting them for one of two lectures. Ruth-Ellen’s lecture this spring represented the Humanities, Social Sciences and Arts while a lecture last fall by a stem cell researcher was chosen to represent the fields of Science and Engineering. Thesis Defense Christine Rinne defended her dissertation "Mastering the Maidservant: Dienstmädchen Fantasies in Germany and Austria, 1794-1918" at Indiana University in December 2005. Helgard Mahrdt passed her recent academic exams as Cand. philol. (MA) in Philosophy. Her final paper is „Phänomenologie des Menschseins. Eine Studie über Hannah Arendts Mit-sein im Horizont von Kant und Heidegger.“ International Conferences Karin Doerr participated in commemorative events in Germany, Austria, and China marking the end of World War II. She was able to observe how each of these nations approached history in different ways. In September 2005, she took part in an International Conference on Gender Issues in Holocaust Studies in Israel. They were held at different venues, one of them being Beit Terezin, the museum and archive founded by survivors of the concentration camp Theresienstadt near Prague. Unlike conferences of this nature in other parts of the world, there one could feel how so many individuals had been affected by loss because of the Holocaust. In fact, survivors were an important part of the conference. It gave Doerr the opportunity for interviews with those who now are expressing their experiences and memories in their writing and art. Retirement Lynda King (Oregon State) is retiring as of July 1, 2006 in order to devote herself to dog training and dog event administration in her next life. New Birth Kathrin Bower (University of Richmond) and Maximilian Heeg welcomed their second daughter, Silvia Carola Bower-Heeg, to the world on August 5, 2005 – two weeks ahead of schedule. If she keeps up that record, she'll be a model student! Submissions policy for Personal News: Have you recently moved, been promoted, won a prize, had a baby, gotten married or tried out a new job?

Women in German Newsletter 102 (Summer 2006): 21 Women in German Newsletter Sommer 2006 ~ Fascinating Clicks ~ Writing Resources at your Typing Finger Tips By Yvonne Houy When I arrived at graduate school in the early 1990s, the implicit (and sometimes quite explicit) message that I and my fellow grad students received from our faculty, was that we were intellectuals and researchers. It was only after I finished my dissertation that I began to think of myself as a writer. Writing is the medium of choice in the Humanities: Even when presenting orally, most academics in the humanities choose to read from a written text. Good writing resources at one’s typing finger tips are thus crucial. Microsoft Word, the dominant word processing program, has a number of useful writing resources right off of the Tools menu (spelling and grammar checkers, word count, tracking changes, etc.) but the web offers a wider variety and higher quality resources. Here is a sampling: Easy to use and fast, Dictionary.com and Thesaurus.com are twin websites that provide definitions, and synonyms and antonyms, respectively, of words you type in. It doesn’t get simpler, faster, and cheaper than this. If you need/want (and can afford) a higher quality dictionary service, the Oxford English Dictionary has an online dictionary for subscribers ($295 per year, $29.95 per month). Since I’m averse to spending more money than I must, I can’t tell you what you can get for $30 a month beyond what you get for free at dictionary.com. http://www.oed.com/ Need to translate a word fast? http://dict.leo.org/ is has gotten even easier to use over the years. Type in a word—in English or German—and it gives you translations of the word, and of idiomatic expressions that use that word. This site also has German-Spanish and German-French dictionaries available. http://www.dict.cc/ is an online collaborative translation dictionary. Internet users contribute translations of words and phrases. I am often impressed by the nuances in words that this collaborative effort gets across. Here you can feel just how dynamic, variable and alive a language is, and that the definitions of the typical dictionary, created by a committee of language experts, sometimes feels static. Need to translate whole sentences or websites? Try Yahoo.de’s Babble Fish http://de.babelfish.yahoo.com/ But don’t expect much more than getting the gist of the text (if you’re lucky). Expect to be amused. Or puzzled. Feeling poetic and want to spice up your writing voice? http://www.rhymezone.com/ is kinda fun. Not only a dictionary, it also offers a thesaurus and rhyming help.

Women in German Newsletter 102 (Summer 2006): 22 Women in German Newsletter Sommer 2006 ~ European News ~ Thanks to an initiative by Dr Ekkehard Henschke, Director of Leipzig University Library up to 31 March 2005, a plaque to commemorate Christiane Mariane von Ziegler is being unveiled in Leipzig on 3 June 2006. The British periodical German Life and Letters put up a quarter of the money. Now read on: Gedenktafel für Christiane Mariane von Ziegler (1695-1760) in Leipzig Die Stiftung „Bürger für Leipzig“ und die Stadt Leipzig ehren gemeinsam die Leipziger Dichterin und Musikerin Christiane Mariane von Ziegler mit einer Gedenktafel. Die Tafel wird am Pfingstsamstag, dem 03.06.2006, um 15 Uhr im Rahmen eines kulturellen Straßenempfangs am Romanushaus in der Leipziger Katharinenstraße enthüllt. Christiane Mariane von Ziegler war die Tochter des Leipziger Bürgermeisters Romanus. Sie war erstes und einziges weibliches Mitglied der „Deutschen Gesellschaft“ und zugleich eine der wenigen deutschen Dichterinnen, die als „Poeta Laureatus“ gekrönt und anerkannt wurde. Sie hat mehrere Bände mit Gedichten publiziert und spielte selbst Klavier, Laute und Querflöte. Johann Sebastian Bach hat ihre Texte in mehreren Kantaten vertont. Sie war seit etwa 1723 der selbstbewusste Mittelpunkt eines literarisch-musikalischen Salons in Leipzig, in dem neben Johann Sebastian Bach auch der deutsche Literaturpapst Johann Christoph Gottsched verkehrte. Die Leipziger Künstlerin Ute Puder war mit der Gestaltung der Gedenktafel beauftragt. Gegossen wurde sie vom Bronzegießer Noack. Die Inschrift ist in Deutsch und Englisch verfasst. Die Tafel wird aus Gründen des Denkmalschutzes in den Fußweg vor dem Portal des Romanushaus eingelassen. An der Finanzierung der Gedenktafel haben sich neben der Stadt Leipzig die britische Germanistik-Zeitschrift „German Life and Letters“ sowie zahlreiche Einzelpersonen beteiligt. Frau Prof. Helen Watanabe-O’Kelly, Oxford, wird das Herausgebergremium der Zeitschrift bei der Feier vertreten. Herr Dr. Georg Girardet, Kulturbeigeordneter der Stadt Leipzig, wird sie eröffnen. Der Germanist Prof. Ludwig Stockinger, Universität Leipzig, würdigt die literarische Leistung der Geehrten. Stiftungsratsvorsitzende Katrin Hart rezitiert aus dem Werk der Zieglerin. Begleitet wird die Feier von barocken Posaunenklängen. Am folgenden Pfingstsonntag, dem 04.06.2006, um 09:30 Uhr wird eine Bach-Kantate mit dem Text von Christiane Mariane von Ziegler im Rahmen des Gottesdienstes von der Bach-Akademie Tokyo in der Leipziger Nicolaikirche aufgeführt. Sie sind herzlich eingeladen! Dr. Ekkehard Henschke für die Stiftung „Bürger für Leipzig“ (www.buergerfuerleipzig.de) Call for Papers (Journal): Stiftung Archiv der deutschen Frauenbewegung Metropole(n) / Peripherie - Perspektiven auf die Frauenbewegungen Deadline: 18.06.2006 Die Zeitschrift "Ariadne - Forum für Frauen- und Geschlechtergeschichte" hat sich für das 51. Heft, das im Mai 2007 erscheinen wird, den Arbeitstitel "Metropole(n) - Peripherie" gewählt und möchte unter dieser Perspektive auf die Frauenbewegungen des 19. und 20. Jahrhunderts schauen. Metropolen sind Zentren der politischen und ökonomischen Macht und des kulturellen Lebens und entfalten eine hohe Anziehungskraft für Menschen und neue Ideen. Von ihnen gehen Impulse für Veränderungen aus, als Schauplatz für kulturelles und politisches Geschehen sind sie von zentraler Bedeutung, "ein Ort entfesselter Kommunikation."1 Auch die Geschichte von Frauen und Frauenbewegungen ist mit dieser Faszination verknüpft; moderne Weiblichkeitsbilder und neue Lebensentwürfe konnten hier entwickelt werden, "das traditionelle Geschlechterverhältnis", so spitzen es Sigrun Anselm und Barbara Beck zu, "brach zuallererst in den Städten auf."2 Doch Metropolen - bewusst im Plural formuliert, denn es gab und gibt mehrere regionale, städtische Zentren, nicht nur die Reichs- oder Bundeshauptstadt - haben einen ambivalenten Charakter; üben sie einerseits große Anziehungskraft aus und entfalten Strahlkraft auf die Peripherie, so lösen sie andererseits auch Fluchtbewegungen aus. "Eine Art diskursive Bestimmung," so stellt Kirsten Heinsohn heraus, "liegt aber auch vor, wenn darüber räsoniert wird, ob eine Stadt als Zentrum Women in German Newsletter 102 (Summer 2006): 23 Women in German Newsletter Sommer 2006 oder Peripherie mit Bezug auf eine historische Entwicklung gelten könne. Die damit verbundene dichotomische Perspektive unterbindet oft genug aber Einsichten in das Zusammenspiel regionaler Traditionen und zentralisierender Entwicklungen."3 Die Ariadne möchte dieses Zusammenspiel von regionalen Traditionen und zentralisierenden Entwicklungen in den Blick nehmen. Frauenbewegungen sollen hier in einem sehr umfassenden Sinne verstanden werden, gemeint sind alle Aktivitäten von Frauen, die die Rolle von Frauen in der Gesellschaft thematisieren. Der zeitliche Rahmen soll die letzten beiden Jahrhunderte umspannen und die aktuelle Situation an der Wende zum 21. Jahrhundert ausdrücklich mit einschließen. Zur Geschichte der Frauenbewegungen liegt inzwischen eine Vielzahl von Forschungen vor, die einen guten Überblick über viele Organisationen, Themen und die verschiedenen Strömungen der Bewegung geben. Ebenso liegen Biographien vieler Protagonistinnen - zumindest der führenden der alten Frauenbewegung - vor. Standen bei den Forschungen zunächst eher die überregionalen Aktivitäten der Frauen im Vordergrund, so sind insbesondere seit den 1990er Jahren auch die lokalen stärker ins Blickfeld genommen worden, wobei sich der Blick nicht nur auf die großen Städte, sondern auch auf kleinere Orte oder auf ganze Regionen richtet. Unter der Perspektive "Metropole(n) / Peripherie" möchten wir diese Forschungen verknüpfen. Nachfolgend einige Fragestellungen, die in einzelnen Beiträgen aufgegriffen werden könnten, so z.B.: - Was heißt Metropole(n) / Peripherie für die Frauenbewegung? Kann man überhaupt von der Metropole der Frauenbewegung sprechen? Was macht einen Ort unter welchen zeitlichen und politischen Bedingungen zur Metropole der Frauenbewegung? • Wie ist das Verhältnis vom Zentrum bzw. von den Zentren zu den Regionen? Wie sieht z.B. das von den Dachverbänden zu den Einzelvereinen, von den reichs- bzw. bundesweiten Organisationen zu den lokalen aus, von den internationalen zu den nationalen? • Wie hat sich die alte Frauenbewegung mit der Einigung des Deutschen Reichs 1870/71 verändert? Kann man nicht erst seit dem überhaupt zwischen Hauptstadt und regionalen Zentren unterscheiden? Konzentrierte sich die Bewegung auf eine Hauptstadt? Waren bzw. wurden andere Orte nur dann erst zur Peripherie, die wiederum regionale Schwerpunkte / Zentren bildeten? • Welche Bedeutung hat die Frage der Metropole(n) / Peripherie für die Zeit von 1945 bis 1989? Was heißt dies z.B. für die neue / autonome Frauenbewegung in Westdeutschland, die sich als Basisbewegung verstanden hat und keinerlei Dachorganisation anstrebte? Und was für die Frauenaktivitäten in Ostdeutschland? • Welche Generation(en) engagierten sich in den verschiedenen Phasen der Frauenbewegung? In den Zentren? Oder in der Peripherie? Gab es so etwas wie eine Tradierung zwischen den Generationen? Oder fangen alle immer wieder bei Null an - so wie die neue Frauenbewegung in Westdeutschland nichts von der alten wusste, und diese als große Neuentdeckung behandelt wurde. • Wie sieht es aus international und / oder national? Welche Bedeutung hat die internationale Ebene? Wie verschieben sich hier die Ausrichtungen: vor 1945, nach 1945, und vor allem nach 1989? Auf welcher Ebene arbeitet man wie zusammen? Arbeitet man überhaupt zusammen? Gibt es Netze, und wenn ja, welche? Wie stehen Netzwerke zu Fragen nach Peripherie und Metropole? Wir freuen uns über entsprechende Artikelvorschläge. Die einzelnen Beiträge sollen einen Umfang von ca. 26.000 bis 35.000 Zeichen, d.h. ca. 9 bis 12 Manuskriptseiten haben. Redaktionsschluss wird der 1. Dezember 2006 sein. Da sich die genaue inhaltliche Gestaltung des Heftes nach den eingehenden Exposés richtet, reichen Sie bitte auch Aufsatzideen ein, die hier nicht angesprochene Fragestellungen aufgreifen bzw. die am Rande des Themas zu liegen scheinen. Wenn Sie Interesse an der Abfassung eines Artikels haben, reichen Sie uns bitte bis zum 18. Juni 2006 ein aussagekräftiges Exposé (1-1½ Seiten) ein. Sie können sich auch gern direkt mit uns in Verbindung setzen. Ansprechpartnerin: Dr. Gilla Dölle, Stiftung Archiv der deutschen Frauenbewegung, Kassel.

Juli 1996 - 13. Juli 2006: 20 Jahre Stiftung Frauen-Literatur-Forschung e.V. Die fetten Jahre sind vorbei? Welche fetten Jahre? Braucht die Gesellschaft die Literaturwissenschaft? Eine Podiumsdiskussion zur Situation der Germanistik zu Beginn des 21. Jahrhunderts Die Kultur- und Literaturwissenschaften sind in der Krise, und das nicht zum ersten Mal, zugleich zeigen sie eine Produktivität wie seit Jahren nicht mehr. Stellen sind Mangelware, aber Wissenschaftler nicht. Ausbildung und Bildung stehen hoch im Kurs, aber vor allem in den Sonntagsreden und nicht bei den Ausstattungen der Bildungsinstitutionen - aller PISA-Schocks und Unkenrufe zum Trotz. Das gilt nicht nur für Bremen, aber auch für Bremen. Ein Theater steht vor dem Bankrott, öffentliche Bibliotheken werden "konzentriert", aus drei Germanistikprofessuren wird eine. Sparmaßnahmen in allen "öffentlichen Servicebereichen" - und dazu gehören auch Universitäten - sind inzwischen "normal". Erstaunlicherweise geht es jedoch nicht darum, dass kein Geld vorhanden wäre, sondern um Prioritäten. Und Priorität hat offensichtlich alles, was zu vermarkten und was ökonomisch wertvoll ist. Sprache und Literatur, Kultur und Bildung, historisches Bewusstsein und Reflexionsfähigkeit, ja selbst sprachlicher und schriftlicher Ausdruck rücken dabei in den Hintergrund, werden zur Zweitausstattung, zur Kür, zum Zierrat, dem man sich dann widmet, wenn Zeit und Geld dafür übrig sind. Die Literaturwissenschaften haben darunter besonders zu leiden - in den siebziger Jahren gaben sie sich besonders kritisch und widerständig, zugleich ist ihre Entwicklung aber auch von Spezialisierung und Beliebigkeit bestimmt. Das Fach der Dichter hat sich möglicherweise auch damit begnügt, nur für Dichter zuständig zu sein. Der Hüter kulturellen Erbes zu sein, genügt heute vielleicht wirklich nicht mehr. Selber schuld also? Ein Fach muss deutlich machen, in welchem gesellschaftlichen Kontext Forschung und Lehre stehen, welches Interesse die Allgemeinheit an den Ergebnissen hat, warum genau diese Forschung und Entwicklung gesellschaftliche Relevanz aufweist und gesellschaftlich verwertbar ist - schließlich wird universitäres Handeln von jedem/r SteuerzahlerIn subventioniert. Wie steht es in diesem Sinne mit der Germanistik im Besonderen und der Literaturwissenschaft im Allgemeinen? Mit VertreterInnen aus unterschiedlichen gesellschaftlichen Bereichen werden wir während einer Podiumsdiskussion folgende Fragen erörtern: 1. Literatur produzieren" - ein Beruf? Schreiben kann doch jeder! "Literatur lesen" - ein Job? Lesen tun wir alle! "Literatur analysieren" - eine Berufung? Gut bezahlt und lebenslang? Wie wird "außerhalb" des Faches literaturwissenschaftliche/germanistische Forschung und Lehre verortet? 2. Buchmessen, literarische Wochen, Literaturpreisverleihungen: Events oder Transfer von literarischem Erkenntnisstreben? 3. Ignoranz auf Seiten derjenigen, die über die "Verteilungshoheit" verfügen versus Kompetenz auf Seiten der FachvertreterInnen? Muss sich die Germanistik "verkaufen"? 4. Der Produktion eines neuen Chips oder der Analyse biologischer Prozesse scheint ein unmittelbarer Nutzen innezuwohnen - Forschung und Entwicklung als gesellschaftliche Notwendigkeit für Erkenntnis und Wohlstand. Führt die Produktion eines Textes oder die Analyse einer Sprache im Prozess von Forschung und Entwicklung ebenfalls zu Erkenntnis und Wohlstand? 5. Rationalisierung versus Ratio? Welche Rolle haben die Literaturwissenschaften? 6. Wandlung der Literaturwissenschaft zur Kultur- und Textwissenschaft? Wohin gehen die Literaturwissenschaften?

Als soziale Kategorie wurde Geschlecht in der Wissenschaftsgeschichte in den letzten Jahren breit diskutiert, unter anderem, um zu verstehen, mit welchen sozialstrukturellen, kulturellen und berufspolitischen Barrieren Frauen bei Women in German Newsletter 102 (Summer 2006): 26 Women in German Newsletter Sommer 2006 ihrem Zugang zur Wissenschaft konfrontiert waren. Mit der kulturellen Kategorie Geschlecht lassen sich Arbeitsbeziehungen einer wissenschaftlichen Disziplin oder Institution und die Rolle von Geschlechterdifferenz als Habitus analysieren. Dabei geht es auch um die Frage, wie die wissenschaftlichen Akteure ihre Arbeitsweisen selbst als männlich oder weiblich kodieren. Geschlecht ist nicht zuletzt eine epistemologische Kategorie. Prinzipiell ist wissenschaftliches Wissen genauso anfällig wie jedes kulturelle Phänomen für Deutungen, die explizit oder implizit mit den ubiquitären, meist dichotomen Geschlechterstereotypen arbeiten. Geschlechterbilder lassen sich in zahlreichen Prozessen der Generierung naturwissenschaftlichen Wissens ebenso aufzeigen wie in der Deutung von Forschungsergebnissen. Dies gilt zumal dort, wo Geschlecht, Sexualität und Fortpflanzung selbst zum Forschungsgegenstand werden. Kritisch untersucht wird dies in diesem Heft unter anderem an der rassen- und geschlechterpolitischen Indienstnahme biowissenschaftlicher Forschung.

University of Lódz, Poland - 31 August to 3 September 2006 The conference is a triennial event organized by the Association of Institutions for Feminist Education and Research in Europe (AOIFE). Previous European Feminist Research Conferences were held at the universities of: Aalborg (1991), Graz (1994), Coimbra (1997), Bologna (2000) and Lund (2003). Continuing this tradition, the 6th European Gender Research Conference plans to be a high-level, interdisciplinary event focused on gender research in a wide but well-defined range of thematic areas: • changing concepts and practices of citizenship in relation to gender issues in Europe, • interrelations between concepts and structures of citizenship and European multicultural contexts defined as intersections of race, ethnicity, sexuality, class, nationality, religion, etc., • gender, science and technology and global citizenship, • gender and participation in political and economic processes.

Women in German Newsletter 102 (Summer 2006): 27 Women in German Newsletter Sommer 2006 ~ WiG Bibliography ~ This is a listing of books from 2005 to May 2006 that may be of interest to WiGgies. I have organized 2006 separately from 2005. The 2005 section targets books that were not listed in the 2003 - August 2005 WiG Bibliography. There is generally a time lag of 2.5 months until releases are in US databases. A note on the creation of this list: I used two electronic search engines and the following search terms: Melvyl, the University of California nine library search engine with the terms: German*; Austria*; Swiss; Switzerland in both keyword and in title searches. The catalog of the Gemeinsamer Bibliotheksverbund with the terms Geschlecht*, Feminism*, and Frau* as keywords. These searches netted me ca. 3500 citations, from which I culled ca. 350, responding to commentary that the last WiG Bibliography was too comprehensive to be convenient. While the computer selection is algorithmic, my human selection is "expert" to some degree or another. I made my selections based primarily on: general topic -- of overall feminist Germanist interest; more specific topic -- if I know that active WiGgies work on particular areas; press; author -for example, authors whose work I know to be of interest. Such choice, especially when culling from 3500 to 350, entails risk; please be assured that I made the decisions that I did with the best intentions. The formatting of the Bibliography, which is in accordance with Chicago 15A, is not entirely internally consistent due to the differences in cataloguing between Melvyl and the GBV. These differences have the advantage of revealing the origin of the citation, information that I find interesting as a way to get a sense of which US feminist texts are impacting the German landscape. James Spohrer who runs the German (and other) Collection of UC Berkeley has been of invaluable assistance in this project. Jim has also provided the following list of smaller presses whose websites might be of interest for new releases: Ariadne / Argument in Hamburg Edition Ebersbach in Berlin Frauenoffensive in Munich Göttert in Rüsselsheim Helmer in Königstein Konkursbuch, Tübingen Männerschwarmskript (homosexuality only) in Hamburg Milena in Vienna Orlanda in Berlin Querverlag (homosexuality and lesbianism) in Berlin Michael Mönnich at the Karlsruhe University Library who works on the Karlsruher Virtuelle Katalog (among other projects) has also been very helpful. Moreover, as you may know, we are considering possible future shapes for this Bibliography. Eric Rentschler of Harvard University suggests that there is no ready single source that would provide a current list of new publications on German cinema. He suggests the monthly list of new publications in epd Film; the website filmzeit.de; and the journals Medienwissenschaft, Rezensionen, and Filmblatt. Finally, while I compiled this particular Bibliography and take full responsibility for its content and omissions, Sarah McGaughey is partnering on this project. Sarah and I would also like to thank many WiGgies, notably Beverly Weber, Lisabeth Hock, and our fearless instigator, Sara Lennox.

To this end, we sponsor the annual WiG conference, publish an e-newsletter and an annual journal, confer an annual prize for the best dissertation, and offer limited research travel 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. As WiG lost other dear friends—Sigrid Brauner, Ann Clark Fehn, Konstanze Bäumer, Marilyn Sibley Fries—the fund was rededicated to the memory of all treasured WiG members now deceased. A separate fund for graduate student research travel was established in honor of Susanne Zantop. In 2004, WiG decided to establish a new research award and to rename the original Memorial Fund. It is now The Memorial Fund for Research Awards, to be used to fund the WiG dissertation prize as well as a new award for the best article by a WiG member. The Zantop Travel Fund will continue to fund graduate student research travel. WiG has been recognized by the IRS as a 501 (c) (3) tax-exempt organization. Thus, contributions to WiG are tax-deductible.
