Crisis! Uitdagingen en kansen

vrijdag 28 november 2025, 10:30 – 17:30
Conferentiecentrum Soeterbeeck

Meer informatie en registratie

Crisis is tegenwoordig een buzz-woord. Overal om ons heen zijn crises te ontwaren: een klimaatcrisis, een woningcrisis, een migratiecrisis, een stikstofcrisis. Maar wanneer is iets een crisis? En, vooral: wat doe je eraan? Tijdens deze eerste Dag van de Historische Nederlandse Letterkunde buigen we ons over het thema crisis. Verkeert ons vakgebied in een staat van crisis? Zo ja, wat kunnen we eraan doen? Hoe bestuderen we zelf crises uit het verleden en welke specifieke inzichten kan de historische letterkunde ons opleveren?

  • About OSLOSL Netherlands Research School for Literary Studies The Netherlands Research School for Literary Studies (OSL) is the national research network for literary theory, comparative literature, Dutch literature, and the literatures of the major modern languages in the Netherlands. It was founded in 1995, and has flourished as a forum for debate and exchange of scholarly views in the field, also functioning as the principal Dutch provider of excellent, cutting-edge coursework and education for research students and PhD candidates in this field. The OSL framework brings together a group of approximately 100 scholars from seven Dutch universities. Literary Studies is a dynamic discipline. The OSL encourages the study of literature (understood as both the printed or digitized word as well as literary culture and the question of literariness) in its historical manifestations and dynamics, and from a variety of mutually complementary perspectives. The research of OSL members focuses on modern and contemporary literature. Within the OSL framework the complementary approaches of cultural history and cultural analysis are of equal standing and often combined. Focal points at the moment include: Cultural Identity and Memory Ideology, Ethics and Representation Remediation, Adaptation, and Translation Effects, Canonization, and (Institutional) Politics Postcolonialism and Globalization Reading and…
