PhD in German Candidate, University of Waterloo MA (Waterloo) Belinda Kleinhans is a PhD candidate in German at the University of Waterloo (ON). Her research focuses on the intersection of philosophy, literature and other cultural artefacts within a posthumanist and poststructuralist framework. She holds a Magister Artium in German Studies and Philosophy from the Universität Mannheim (2008) and a MA in German from the University of Waterloo (2007). The title of her Master Thesis is "Geworfen in Welt, Gesellschaft und Sprache. Existentialismus und Identität in Ingeborg Bachmanns Erzählband 'Das dreißigste Jahr'". Her current research project analyses the representation of animals in German literature after 1945, seeking a deeper understanding of the connection between language, representation and power. In this context, she has published an article in Orbis Litterarum 66.5 (2011) entitled "Jenseits der Grenze zwischen Mensch und Tier. 'Tier-Werden' und 'Anders-Werden' in Günter Eichs Hörspiel 'Sabeth'". |
