The event will bring together PhD students, advanced researchers, and professors from the partner universities Fudan University and Universität Hamburg for a two-and-a-half-day program. With keynote lectures and PhD project presentations, the summer school will provide a platform to discuss transnational and regional ties, interdisciplinary approaches and new findings in the field of Sino-European interactions in the past and present.
Both universities established the graduate school in the autumn of 2013 as part of town twinning initiatives between Hamburg and Shanghai. The graduate school started as a project of the Chinese Studies and History Departments, concentrating on Sino-German relations (https://www.gwiss.uni-hamburg.de/einrichtungen/graduiertenschule/doktorandenkolleg-deutschland-china.html).
Following last year’s summer school at Fudan University, this year’s event will mark the end of a cycle and the beginning of a new phase: After three years, the first cohort of PhD candidates focusing on Chinese-German historical relations will complete the program. In the future, it will extend its scope to focus on PhD and research projects examining transfer processes between China and Europe. Furthermore, it will look not only at processes in a historical perspective, but will also consider the whole range of the humanities: literary criticism, philosophy, the science of art, musicology, cultural anthropology et cetera.
The program will be rounded off by two presentations of the “Public Lecture Series Shanghai – Hamburg”, organized by the partner universities in celebration of 30 years of city partnership (https://www.aww.uni-hamburg.de/oeffentliche-vortraege/programm/37-shanghai-hamburg.html).
The summer school is subsidized by the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD). Since 2015, the DAAD has supported both universities in their efforts to strengthen their cooperation as part of a trilateral network with Macquarie University in Sydney, Australia.
