Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin
Svenja K. Damm studied Egyptology and obtained her B.A. and M.A. at the University of Leipzig. In her master’s thesis, she republished a Ramesside ghost story and analysed it in terms of both language and content. She worked as a research assistant in the project “Thesaurus Linguae Aegyptiae. Strukturen und Transformationen des Wortschatzes der ägyptischen Sprache” of the Sächsische Akademie der Wissenschaften zu Leipzig and the Berlin-Brandenburgische Akademie der Wissenschaften. Svenja’s research interests are rhetorical stylistics in poetic and narrative texts, spatial concepts in religious corpora and the cultural-historical significance of natural phenomena. In project B03 of the CRC 1412, she will investigate register variation and asymmetrical communication in texts from Ancient Egypt.
