Florian Stenschke
Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin

Born 1981 in Berlin, I developed an early interest in music and later discovered equally stimulating aesthetic pleasures in texts and images. Besides arts, I am interested in human beings, neuroscience, philosophy, Swiss railways, astronomy, physics, and recently also in biology. After having traveled extensively and a little too much, I now travel more happily at home mainly in ideas. On these voyages papers and presentations have emerged, raging from literary criticism (i.e. "The Invisible Narrator: Ishmael's Thinking Bubbles" on Melville's Moby Dick), media criticism (work on "U.S. Global Media: Enter/America, Enter/tainment?"), social appeal ("How to Wake up from the European Dream") to educational policy fused with journalistic elements and cultural philosophy (as recently in "Alternative School Models Aimed at Aiding Integration"). I have studied abroad at Duke University as part of the American Studies program at Humboldt University in which I am delightfully enrolled.

Paper: Charles Eastman and Indian American Autobiography (Session I)
