About
I’m Greta Goetz, PhD, an Assistant Professor in the English Department at the Faculty of Philology, University of Belgrade. This is my personal exsolving blog and wiki-like digital garden.
For the past two decades, I have taught higher education. I am currently working on collaborative, project-based, relational learning and creative cross-disciplinary co-individuation. This work departs from philological cultural pedagogy and thought.
My research is concerned with how networked learning and epistemic fluency can restore intercultural rifts such as the science and technology-humanities divide. Focuses include the meanings and limitations of technoscientific literacy, mnemotechnic retention, and the problem of receptivity in intercultural dialogue. I believe in the generative potential of inquiry and seek to model inquisitiveness as one of the tools we can use to navigate what the World Economic Foundation has dubbed the great reset.
I have a multicultural background, was educated in Hong Kong, Switzerland, France, the United States, and Serbia, and worked my way through a BA, Cum Laude, from Columbia University. I began my career working for various publications in Hong Kong and New York, including TIME magazine.
A compilation of blog posts I wrote about running can be found at Orange Mud. A sample of my work in Serbian-English translation is the following manuscript available online: Marčetić, A. (2018). After Comparative Literature, Institute for Literature and Art: Belgrade.
