Karoline von Günderrode's philosophy: Interview with Anna Ezekiel Podcast Episode · New Voices in the History of Philosophy · 11/11/2025 · 44m

Jacinta Shrimpton interviewed me about the philosophical work of Karoline von Günderrode for the New Voices in the History of Philosophy podcast - you can listen here: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/k...

OUP has posted the date for the paperback release of "Karoline von Günderrode: Philosophical Writings": May 27! (Hardback is out March 13.) You can preorder here: global.oup.com/academic/con...

Hooray! Always a joy when an edition of this comes out!

These do come up in the pieces translated in the book! I try to suggest ways Günderrode’s views on these things might be different from those of Novalis and F Schlegel.

The text of a 5 star review that reads: "My favorite thing about this book for me was actually the experience of finding and reading it. I will try my best to evoke that experience this way: This is the kind of book I can imagine finding in the corner of a library one day and just being becoming absolutely fascinated by. I was captivated by it, and felt like my connection to the past was deepened by it in a way. It was that kind of experience. There was something of a mystery about it for me. I was encouraged to view it in this way by the introductory chapters to the plays/poems, which promised, and went some way to reveal, the philosophical depths underneath the surface. I do have an interest in German Romanticism, but I think the book stands alone and is worth being read on its own terms, either as a powerful work of literature, an overlooked contribution to philosophy, or an interesting historical artifact of world thought."

My new book of #Günderrode translations is out next month, 10 years after my first book of translations, "Poetic Fragments." This lovely review of "Poetic Fragments" makes me feel I did something worthwhile.

It really has! It’s been exciting to watch so many other scholars doing great work on Günderrode while I was writing this.

A book cover with text "Karoline von Günderrode: Philosophical Writings, Edited and translated by Anna Ezekiel, Oxford New Histories of Philosophy." Cover includes a black and white portrait of a young woman (Günderrode) from the waist up, looking to the right, and a strange homunculus shown faintly in the background.

Available now as part of the Oxford New Histories of Philosophy Series, my translations of & introductions to philosophical work by German Romantic writer Karoline von Günderrode (1780-1806): "Karoline von Günderrode: Philosophical Writings"

Thank you! Very strange day.

Bit of a mixed bag today. Sent off the final proofs of a manuscript but received news of a dear friend’s family member passing. Both huge and pulling emotions in opposite directions.

Bon courage

Found a note to myself saying “Check zoo stuff.” No idea what that’s about 😂

That also sounds very interesting! I lived Copenhagen when I was a small child - I think my dad had some work there for a period of time and took me with him sometimes. I was very small but still remember Tivoli and the architecture in the city.

I’m going to read it. It sounds fascinating. I didn’t like being a child so I’m interested in other people who also noticed the negative aspects.

I’m incredibly shy about using my second languages but in the last 24 hours I’ve navigated 2 situations in Cantonese that would have been much harder without it 😃 It’s not much considering I’ve lived in HK nearly 10 years but I have had to work so hard at it.

This is a beautiful description of the book, which sounds chilling.

Why We Should Read Frances Power Cobbe as a Philosopher – Guest Blog by Alison Stone Until recently, women were systematically excluded from the history of philosophy – so systematically that it used to be assumed that there were no women philosophers in the past. Women have …

It means I won’t be visiting, even though don’t think I even have anything they’d object to in my sm history. It’s a pity because I have good friends there but I already hate dealing with their unnecessarily aggressive airport staff.
