Hannah Eder is a research associate and PhD candidate at the University of Regensburg. Her PhD project focuses on changing representations of protest in British literature since 1979. Connecting past and ongoing protest movements (i.e. anti-nuclear and anti-globalisation movements, feminist and queer activism, hacktivism, environmental struggle) and their formal and aesthetic expression, she investigates how counter-hegemonic dissent can/could be imagined throughout the neoliberal conjuncture. Her research interests include contemporary playwright's theatre (with special focus on formal experiment and feminist playwriting), left wing literature, critical theory, feminist theory and collectivity studies.
