Christa Jansohn

January 01, 1970

Christa Jansohn (born 1958) is a German scholar of English literature and culture. From 2001-2023 she held the Chair of British Culture at the University of Bamberg in Germany.

Education edit

Christa Jansohn studied English, History and Archive Studies at the University of Bonn and the University of Exeter. She completed her MA and the first Staatsexamen in teacher training, before gaining her PhD and Habilitation, all at the University of Bonn.

Career edit

Christa Jansohn was appointed to the Chair of British Culture at the University of Bamberg in 2001, a post she held until her retirement in 2023. Her scholarly work has focused primarily on the intersections between British Cultural Studies and older philological traditions, as well as on interdisciplinary approaches to these overlaps. She has made particular contributions in a number of different areas, including the reception of Shakespeare in Germany;[1] D. H. Lawrence and his European reception;[2] the relationship between literature and the history of science and medicine;[3] the history of literary societies; scholarly editing (with a particular focus on Shakespeare and Lawrence); and translation studies.

She has been a full member of the Academy of Sciences and Literature, Mainz since 2005,[4] and since 2011 she has served as Chair of the Academy’s Committee for English Literature. On the occasion of Shakespeare’s 450th birthday in 2014, she collaborated with fellow members of the Mainz Academy – including fellow Shakespeare scholar Werner Habicht – on the Shakespeare Album: a photographic album presenting 109 portraits and autograph signatures of personalities central to the propagation of German interest in Shakespeare over the centuries.[5]

In 2019, she was appointed Chair of the Commission of Literature and Culture at the Academy;[6] and in July 2019, she was elected a full member of the section of 'Literary and Theatrical Studies' in the Academia Europaea.[7] She has also served on the Editorial Boards of the journals Archiv für das Studium der neueren Sprachen und Literaturen,[8] Editionen in der Kritik[9] and the Prague Journal of English Studies.[10]

Awards and honours edit

Christa Jansohn has been a Visiting Fellow of several colleges of the University of Cambridge, most recently Trinity (2005) and Churchill (2010–11, 2015–16). In 2009 she was a visiting fellow at CRASSH (Centre for Research in the Arts, Social Sciences, and Humanities), Cambridge.[11]

Among other research sabbaticals at US institutions, she has been a Fulbright Fellow at New York University (1992);[12] an Andrew W. Mellon Foundation Fellow at the Harry Ransom Humanities Research Center, University of Texas at Austin (1994);[13] and an Eleanor M. Garvey Fellow in Printing and Graphic Arts at the Houghton Library, Harvard University (2016).[14]

In 2004 she was awarded the Commerzbank Prize of the Academy of Sciences and Literature, Mainz, for her “wide-ranging, many-sided, and remarkably fruitful research activities, which have advanced and enriched dialogue with Anglo-Saxon scholarship”.[15]
