Felix Knode is a Researcher at the University of Göttingen, working as a Research Assistant in the project "Sustainability as an Argument" within the sub-project Literary Studies since July 2016. His academic background includes a BA and MA in German and Literary Studies from the University of Potsdam.
His educational background:
- BA in German and Linguistics (major: Literary Studies) from University of Potsdam (2011-2014)
- MA in German (major: Literary Studies) from University of Potsdam (2014-2016)
Knode's research focuses on the history of literature, culture, and philosophy of the 18th century, the history of the genre of the idyll and the novel, and conceptualizations of aesthetics from the early modern period to the present. His doctoral project examines the complex of features of the sensitively idyllic in the narrative works of Friedrich Heinrich Jacobi, comparing them with Rousseau's "Julie" and Goethe's "Werther".
His recent scholarly output, including two forthcoming publications in 2018, centers on themes of privacy under sensibility and republican correspondences in Enlightenment literature. These works reflect his deep engagement with 18th-century German literature and intellectual history.
Knode is part of the research team for the project "Sustainability as an Argument" at the University of Göttingen, which explores interdisciplinary aspects of sustainability through historical and literary lenses.
