Teaching

Teaching about fan culture is not just a mode of imparting knowledge, but also essential for recruiting and training next generation researchers.

Classes or sessions taught about fan culture or related/neighbouring subjects since the approval of the application by the German Research Foundation in October 2022:

• »Fankulturen: Zur Analyse von Fantum in Theater, Literatur und Kino« (Fan Cultures: Analyzing Fandom in Theatre, Literature and Cinema, Stephan Michael Schröder, Department of Scandinavian and Finnish Studies, summer semester 2023)
• »Das nordeuropäische Stummfilmkino: Geschichte und Forschungsperspektiven« (The Northern European Silent Cinema: History and Research Perspectives, Stephan Michael Schröder, Department of Scandinavian and Finnish Studies, winter semester 2023/24) (with one session especially dealing with the emergence and establishment of film fandom in the silent era)
• Session about early film fan culture in: »Frauen in der Bildproduktion um 1900: Leerstellen und Spuren im Archiv« (Women in picture production around 1900: Gaps and traces in the archive, Kristina Köhler, Department of Art History, winter semester 2023/24)
