Welcome to our blog hosted by the staff and students of the chair of Cultural Studies within the English Department at the University of Koblenz-Landau in Germany.

With this blog we intended to share our critical insights on the cultural space and its varied pop-cultural phenomena. These reflect our research interests and scholarly outputs as well as the findings and projects of our students. Like cultural studies itself, the blog will touch on a variety of concepts and include topics ranging from questions of identity to popular culture.

See something in the media relating to the content of your courses, perhaps British or American History, City or Popular Culture?  Do you have some commentary on Netflix’ Squid Game? Who is the internet’s newest victim of Cancel Culture?
Just sit down, write a few lines and send them to csblog(at)uni-landau.de . Everyone who submits an article wins a book curated by the Cultural Studies team!

Currently, the blog is maintained by Kathleen Starck of the Cultural Studies team. We hope to add more authors in future!
