News: Karens, Tradwives and MechaHitlers - Internet Archetypes as Indicators of a Transatlantic, Collective Unconscious?

The detailed workshop programme is now online! Find out more about the schedule and the content of the presentations.

14 November 2025, by DIMAS

The one-day hybrid workshop is hosted at the Department for Interdisciplinary and Multiscalar Area Studies (DIMAS) at the University of Regensburg by Prof. Dr. Astrid Ensslin and Dr. Laura Niebling on Nov 14th 2025. It will bring together perspectives from various transatlantic, European and North American academic communities. Using a case study approach, we will critically engage with the idea of the Web as a new “collective unconscious”, and revisit and question Jung’s and other, emergent archetype schemata in light of how they might reflect elements of contemporary post-digital imaginaries and transcultural flows within the imagined “Global North”.

When? November 14, 2025, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Where? Altes Finanzamt, University of Regensburg, Room 017
