These questions should be discussed in a polyphonic way in German studies, as they also trigger a reflection on the discipline itself. Can German studies—here I refer to Max Czollek’s quote at the beginning of my paper—really afford to exclude a significant portion of society (students, readers, scholars, etc.)? The answer is clearly no. Falling student numbers show that German studies must expand to include new content, methods, and theories, and critically question itself. Black German literature is not a trend, but has long been a part of German society, and it should be treated with such respect. I see my research as a contribution against its simplification, marginalization, and racialization. For the near future, I would like to see Black German literature brought into the spotlight as a part of literary history and society in all its beauty, complexity, and plurality. If German studies wants to continue to exist and become part of a pluralistic society, it must change, or it will no longer be.

abstract:This article focuses on Christoph Schlingensief's Wagner-Rallye (2004), a work described as a counterpart to his staging of Wagner's Parsifal in Bayreuth. Inspired by Kluge's short story "Götterdämmerung in Wien," the Rallye radically reworks Wagner's Gesamtkunstwerk concept by dispersing the sound of his operas in the public space. With Rancière, I describe the becoming-material of Wagner as "aesthetics of the torso" and discuss its emancipatory potential while simultaneously examining it withing the specific context of the Ruhrfestspiele; a festival founded as counterpart to established cultural institutions in an attempt to bring culture to the working class.

bution perspicaciously argues for the importance of thinking through philosophical and literary developments from the standpoint of machines and technology, which he argues determine both diegetic and extra-diegetic elements of works of literature. In doing so he sheds an illuminating media theoretical light on the philosophical stakes of Wilhelm Meister. Overall, the volume is accessible despite what may be treated as dense subject matter, and it executes very well what the editors promise in the introduction. Each contribution reflects in different ways, implicitly or explicitly, on the tension between the particularity of Wilhelm himself and the universal lessons, concepts, and practices this particularity offers. The volume makes for an excellent contribution to the disciplines of philosophy and literary studies, with Müller-Sievers’ contribution expanding its reach to media studies, and would also be a very useful accompaniment to courses on Goethe and German literature.
