Welcome to Umlaut!

Umlaut has two important objectives:
To foster a better sense of community within the Comparative Literature Department at UGA
and to provide information and opportunities for our fellow graduate students regarding professional development.

Please take some time to browse our website. In particular, keep an eye on the "Announcements" link, which contains an RSS feed with up-to-date information about Umlaut events, calls for papers, and any other noteworthy events or information for Comparative Literature graduate students.
