Professor Birgit Tautz is on a treasure hunt. She’s mining the local literary scene of Germany in the 1800s to tell a much larger story of global literature, then and now. In this episode, Professor Tautz talks about German literature, translation, and how she works within the field of digital humanities. Tautz is the George Taylor Files Professor of Modern Languages at Bowdoin. Her most recent book, Translating the World: Toward a New History of German Literature around 1800 (PSU Press, 2018), is the winner of the 2019 SAMLA (South Atlantic Modern Language Association) Studies Book Award.
