Dr Silke Arnold-de Simine
MA (Karlsruhe), Dr Phil (Mannheim)
My teaching and research interests lie in 19th- and 20th-century German literature and film, theories of cultural memory, the museum, the historicity of media and gender studies.
I am Programme Director of the MA Modern Languages (German and Combined Studies), and I also teach on the MA European Cultures, the MA Museum Cultures, the MA in Aesthetics of Kinship and Community and the MA Romantic Studies.
Before coming to Birkbeck in 2006, I taught at the University of Mannheim (Germany) and at the University of Cambridge (2001-2003). In 2005 I had a HRC Visiting Fellowship at the ANU (Canberra, Australia).
