Interdisciplinary Scientific Conference

The interdisciplinary scientific conference titled "Cryptograms of Ingeborg Bachmann" took place on the 13th and 14th of June 2024 at the Polish Academy of Sciences - Scientific Centre in Vienna (Sobieski Hall, Boerhaavegasse 25, 1030 Vienna)

The conference commemorated the 50th anniversary of the death of Ingeborg Bachmann, an Austrian writer in 2023. Bachmann's works have had a significant impact on European literature, Austria's cultural landscape, and beyond. The conference aimed to provide a multifaceted approach to Bachmann's work, including exploring cryptograms and coded texts. This approach allowed us to think about Bachmann's writing from different perspectives and to encourage an exchange of ideas between researchers from different language areas.

Bachmann's readers and scholars from various disciplines, including literary studies, cultural studies, philosophy, psychoanalysis, translation studies, and memory studies, participated in this event!
