Welcome.
I'm Caroline Schaumann.
I am a Professor of German Studies at Emory University and affiliated faculty with the Tam Institute for Jewish Studies, Film Studies, Environmental Sciences, and the Sustainability Minor.
Latest Project
My latest book, Peak Pursuits: The Emergence of Mountaineering in the Nineteenth Century (2020, Yale University Press) examines how written and artistic depictions of nineteenth-century exploration and mountaineering in the Andes, the Alps, and the Sierra Nevada shaped cultural understandings of nature and wilderness in the Anthropocene.
Current Project
Currently, I am working on a co-edited anthology on new perspectives on global mountain cinema, as well as a book-length project that examines the lives and research of the scientists, explorers, and mountaineers Schlagintweit brothers 1842-1880 in the Alps, Himalaya, and Californian Sierra Nevada (the latter of which only Robert Schlagintweit visited).
