Since 2011 Sina Rauschenbach is the coordinator of the “Spanish-German Academic Conversations” (Spanisch-Deutsche Arbeitsgespräche) which are the result of a joint initiative of the Fundación Xavier de Salas (Trujillo), the Herzog August Bibliothek (Wolfenbüttel) and the Stiftung Preußischer Kulturbesitz. In 1993 Prof. Dr. Dietrich Briesemeister (Berlin), Prof. Dr. Friedrich Niewöhner (Wolfenbüttel) and Prof. Dr. Jaime de Salas (Madrid/Trujillo) signed a cooperation agreement for their respective institutions. The goal of this agreement was to promote research of the Spanish-German relations during Early Modern times and to encourage encounters between Spanish and German scholars. To this end, the institutions involved organized a number of joint conferences. With the retirement of Dietrich Briesemeister in 2004 and the sudden death of Friedrich Niewöhner in 2005 the initiative came to a standstill. After a lengthy hiatus it was revived in 2011. Since then the following conferences have been organized:
In the future, it is planned to continue the “Spanish-German Academic Conversations” every two years, alternately in Trujillo and Wolfenbüttel. The goal is still to make encounters between Spanish and German researchers possible and to encourage a dialogue about relevant topics of European cultural history, especially of Spain and Germany.
