Bio: I am Professor of History in the BMW Center for German and European Studies at Georgetown University. I am the author of works on modern German and European history, among them Imperial Germany and a World Without War: The Peace Movement and German Society, 1892-1914 (Princeton UP, 1975), We Men Who Feel Most German: A Cultural Study of the Pan-German League, 1886-1914 (Allen & Unwin, 1984), Karl Lamprecht: A German Academic Life, 1856-1915 (Humanities Press International, 1993), and Imperial Germany and the Great War (2d ed. Cambridge, 2004; German ed. Beck Verlag, 2002). My most recent volume, The Great War and Urban Life in Germany: Freiburg, 1914-1918, will be published in English by Cambridge University Press and in German by the Schoeningh Verlag. My volume on Karl Lamprecht won the Jacques Barzun Prize in Cultural History from the American Philosophical Society. With Stig Förster of the University of Berne I have coordinated the conference series, "The United States and Germany in the Era of Total War, 1860-1945," which has resulted in five published volumes (Cambridge UP). With Thomas A. Brady, Jr., of the University of California in Berkeley I am the general editor of the monograph series "Studies in Central European Histories" with Brill Academic Publishers in Leiden. I have held fellowships from the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, the Fulbright Commission, the Guggenheim Foundation, the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation, and the Gerda Henkel Foundation. He has also been a fellow at the Institute for Advanced Studies in Princeton, the Military History Research Office in Freiburg, the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars, and the National Humanities Center in Research Triangle Park, NC. |
