Public Lecture: Ghostly Figures, Frightening Phantoms, Villains – On the Uncanny
Every era has its own frightening phantoms – from the devil and vampire to the cyborg and AI. Prof. em. Dr. Andreas Härter, Titular Professor of German Language and Literature at the University of St. Gallen, will take you on a fascinating journey into the world of the uncanny. In this lecture series, he explores the cultural-historical significance of the uncanny, which has been accompanying our worldview and action norms for centuries.
