Dr Katya Krylova has co-organised a virtual conference (together with Dr Ernest Schonfield, University of Glasgow) on the landmark Austrian writer Thomas Bernhard. The conference, entitled 'Thomas Bernhard: Language, History, Subjectivity' (originally scheduled to take place at the Goethe Institute Glasgow in June 2020) will take place on 17-18 September via Zoom. The conference aims to develop new readings of Bernhard’s primary texts via the three interconnected strands of language, history and subjectivity. Keynote speakers include Prof. Rüdiger Görner (QMUL) and Dr. Manfred Mittermayer (University of Salzburg). An online exhibition of photo-illustrations by Heiko Berner for Bernhard’s 'A Child' will accompany the conference.
The full conference programme is available to view via the conference website, https://bernhardglasgow2020.wordpress.com/, and is free to attend. We kindly ask all participants to register via the website by 13 September – we will then email access links to registered participants.
