Faculty Interest Groups

Renaissance and Early Modern European Studies

The Renaissance and Early Modern European interest group is composed of faculty from across the university, from architecture to fine arts, humanities to music. It is fundamentally a workshop group, in which members meet a few times a semester to discuss the work-in-progress of colleagues and the work-in-progress of invited guests to campus.

Nineteenth-Century European Studies

This is primarily a reading group composed of faculty from across the campus interested in working on the themes of perception, judgement, affect, and the workings of the mind as conceived in the nineteenth century, with a particular focus this year on mind-body issues as they pertain to modernity.

For more information contact Alexandra Wettlaufer at akw@mail.utexas.edu or Tracie Matysik at matysik@mail.utexas.edu

Twentieth-Century European Studies

This group is a small faculty writing group that meets about once a month; its main purpose is to provide members with extensive feedback on ongoing writing projects (books, articles, talks, grant applications).
