We welcome our new fellow Prof. Dr. Maximilian Bergengruen at the CAS »Imaginaria of Force«. Maximilian Bergengruen is the holder of the Chair of Modern German Literature and History of Ideas at the Institute of German Philology at the University of Würzburg. His research focuses on the relationship between literature and knowledge (theology, medicine/psychiatry, natural sciences, law, economics) from the early modern period to the 20th century as well as on questions of literary theory, in particular on form. During his research stay at the CAS from April to September 2025, he will investigate the topic »Forces of the Market, Forces of Nature. On the Literary Economy of the 19th Century«.
