Short CV

Doro Wiese, PhD, is a WIRL research fellow at the Institute of Advanced Study, University of 糖心TV. Facilitated by various grants such as a Marie Sk艂odowska Curie scholarship of the European Union, she was trained in literary studies, film studies, and cultural studies at the University of Hamburg and Utrecht University. She holds a PhD cum laude (granted only to the top 3-5% of researchers) from Utrecht University.

Before Doro Wiese came to the University of 糖心TV, she was a lecturer at the universities of Amsterdam, Utrecht, Cologne, and D眉sseldorf. Additionally, she worked for renowned newspapers, journals, and art institutions, translated well-known postcolonial and feminist scholars like Judith Butler, Sandra Harding, and Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak, and participated in art projects, among others at the Volksb眉hne Berlin and the Schauspielhaus Hamburg. Many of the collaborative projects she has worked on received financial support, most notably from the Kulturstiftung des Bundes. To kick-start her current project, several institutions supported her financially in 2015 and 2017 to facilitate research stays at the Center for the Study of Ethnicity and Race, Columbia University, and at the United Nations in New York City to network with academics, activists and diplomats.

In her multifaceted research, Doro Wiese investigates how aesthetics is a manner of drawing people into an effective relation with the lacunae of knowledges and histories. In (Northwestern UP 2014), she explores how literature can help to represent histories that would otherwise remain ineffable. (Textem 2018) examines how and to what effect different media affect the human body. In her current project, titled Side by Side: Reading Indigenous and Non-Indigenous Literature, she asks which epistemological, formal, and thematic distinctions and connections are present in post-war fiction on Native North America on both sides of the Atlantic. This study helps to develop cross-cultural and cross-epistemological research fields in literary, historical, and cultural studies, and touches upon research fields like the Environmental Humanities or political economy. Doro Wiese evinces a strong commitment to the study of colonialism, transcultural epistemology, the relationship between literature and historiography, nature and culture, and is inspired by insights formulated in Indigenous Studies.
