Prof. Zeno Ackermann: 

Zeno Ackermann is Professor of British Cultural Studies at the University of Würzburg, Germany. His research focuses on correlations between poetics and ideology, on the reverberations of war, on the position of the novel vis-à-vis audiovisual mass media, on the concept of articulation and the problem of the voice, and on the afterlives of Shakespeare's works inside as well as outside the theatre.

With Sabine Schülting he has recently published Precarious Figurations: Shylock on the German Stage, 1920–2010 (De Gruyter, 2019), a cultural history of the functionalization of Shylock on German stages and in German discourses since the beginning of the twentieth century.

His last publication is the book Terrains of Consciousness: Multilogical Perspectives on Globalization (Würzburg UP, 2021), co-authored with Isabel Karremann, Simi Malhotra and Nishat Zaidi.
