Our Cluster of Excellence has set itself the task of fundamentally rethinking the concept of literature from a global perspective. We understand and study literature as an individual and collective practice that operates in and through time, creating its own temporalities in the process. Bringing together international researchers from fields as diverse as literary studies, art history and art theory, film studies, theatre studies and philosophy, our work is characterised by a collaborative, exploratory approach that fosters exchange between the humanities and the arts in exciting new formats.
