Katherine Aaslestad
Katherine Barbara Aaslestad specializes in modern Germany, in particular the long nineteenth century. Her most recent book, Revisiting Napoleon’s Continental System: Local, Regional, and European Experiences, presents essays by international scholars and analyzes the short and long-term consequences of the Continental System. Her first book, Place and Politics: Local Identity, Civic Culture, and German Nationalism in North Germany during the Revolutionary Era, explores the political culture of the Hanseatic city of Hamburg and examines the consequences of Napoleonic and international warfare on regional and civic identity in northern Germany. Aaslestad has also published articles in English, Spanish and German on republicanism, consumer culture, economic warfare, the commemoration of war, and war and gender. Her research has been supported by grants from the Fulbright US Scholar Program, DAAD, German Academic Exchange Service, American Scandinavian Foundation, and the West Virginia Humanities Council.
