H-Transnational German Studies
H-Transnational German Studies provides a moderated interdisciplinary network for the discussion of how Germans and German-speakers formed and are forming connections with people outside German-speaking Europe through language, migration, colonialism, commercial and cultural exchange. Together, network members ask about Germans’ impact upon the world and the world’s impact upon Germans. The network brings together scholars from across disciplines to interrogate the global context of German culture, society, language, and history. H-TGS was formerly H-GAGCS (German-American and German-Canadian Studies). Its archives are available here.
