Dr. Mareike Stoll
Mareike Stoll holds a PhD in German Studies from Princeton University. She defended her dissertation on German photo books of the Weimar Period in October 2015.
Her first book entitled »ABC der Photographie. Photobücher der Weimarer Republik« —for which she was awarded a research and publication grant by the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Photographie (DGPh)— was published with Walther König in January 2018.
Mareike earned her M.A. in Comparative Literature at Freie Universität Berlin and in Art History at Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin in 2005. Mareike’s research combines the reading of images and texts. She has published articles on a variety of topics, such as the notion of guilt as connected to capitalism in the writings of Walter Benjamin, on cityscapes in German photo books by J. Hanzlová and A. Tüllmann, as well as on language as a container of collective memory in Uwe Johnson’s »Jahrestage« and Ta-Nehisi Coates’ »Between the World and Me«.
Mareike is Research Associate at weißensee school of art and design berlin.
