Centre for Anglo-German Cultural Relations (CAGCR)

Description

The Centre for Anglo-German Cultural Relations (CAGCR) is housed in the Department of Modern Languages and Cultures within the School of Languages, Linguistics and Film, as a Research Centre in the faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences.

The CAGCR was established in order to promote the study of cultural transfers and interrelations between Britain and the German speaking world (including Austria and the German-speaking parts of Switzerland).

More particularly, the CAGCR has three main goals:

• The facilitation of innovative research on Anglo-German cultural relations with special reference to the fields of literature, language, intellectual history and comparative cultural practice, to be published in the Centre's refereed Yearbook, ANGERMION.
• The provision of high-quality postgraduate teaching on Anglo-German cultural relations through an MA programme and through PhD supervision.
• Outreach to the academic and general public through important Anglo-German themes and questions with a significant Anglo-German dimension.
