Research projects located at the chair of "Global Literature and its Media with a Focus on Gender Studies" are often transhistorical and intersectional in nature. "English Philology" is understood in the sense of "Anglophone" literary and cultural studies, which means that our areas of interest relate not only to Great Britain, but also to other English-speaking countries that have produced significant Anglophone literatures and cultures not least due to Great Britain's colonial history (and often, though by far not always, in critical engagement with this very history). Globality similarly is viewed critically and transhistorically. Engagement with the 'classics' of British literary history often takes place in dialogue with transatlantic and/or colonial contexts. Another research area is the mediality of specific kinds of literary and cultural productions, from film as a medium to digitisation and the book, which includes overlaps with Book Studies that specialise in the production side of literature / books. Here, the intersections of literature with economics or literature and the market, as well as law and literature, become relevant. Another transhistorical field of engagement is Affect Studies or Literary Emotion.
