In her exploration of eighteenth-century cultural production, Wendy Sutherland delves into how representations of blackness across various disciplines shaped the identity of the white bourgeois German self. By analyzing works in philosophy, anthropology, aesthetics, and drama, she highlights the impact of these portrayals on the development of German bourgeois dramas, particularly those by playwrights like Friedrich Wilhelm Ziegler and Ernst Lorenz. Sutherland's work reveals the intricate connections between race and cultural identity during this period.
