Reasearch / work
My research focusses above all on the interface between literary representations and (aspects of) sustainability. My recent reserach interest is, among others, the depiction of the “last human” and here especially the insights such literary representations may offer about our social relations or, more generally, about the relationship between the individual and the environment.
