Caricatures and Satire in a Global Perspective: 1850–1950
Bonn, 14.–16. December 2022 Collegium Leoninum
organized by Prof. Dr. Anna Kollatz & Dr. Veruschka Wagner
The century between 1850 and 1950 can be described, in a global perspective, as a century of transitions. During these years, a multitude of profound changes hit the world in many ways, such as in political, social and societal dimensions. Among others, this period saw a veritable boom in satirical journals that addressed the mentioned transformative strands and conflicts, notably also by caricatures. The conference “Caricatures and Satire in a Global Perspective: 1850–1950” takes stock of satirical discourses communicated in caricatures in a transcultural, comparative way.
