These three seminars organised by Richard Hibbitt were part of the Annual Meeting of the American Comparative Literature Association.

2016 Mapping Europe (Seminarzentrum Gut Siggen)

The group returned to Siggen thanks to the generous support of the Alfred Toepfer Foundation to launch a new project on the intersection between geography, cartography and literary cultures. The meeting included panel discussions on cultural geography and intermediality based on pre-circulated readings as well as sessions dedicated to the mapping of transnational space in the digital humanities.
