Dr. Alexander Tille (1866–1912) was one of the key-figures in Anglo-German intercultural transfer towards the end of the 19th century. As a lecturer in German at Glasgow University he was the first to translate and edit Nietzsche’s work into English. Writers such as W. B. Yeats were influenced by Nietzsche and used Tille’s translations. Tille’s social Darwinist reading of the philosopher’s oeuvre, however, had a narrowing impact on the reception of Nietzsche in the Anglo-Saxon world for decades. Through numerous publications Tille disseminated knowledge about British authors (e.g., Robert Louis Stevenson, William Wordsworth) in Germany and about German authors (e.g., Johann Wolfgang von Goethe) in Britain. His role as mediator also extended into areas such as history, religion, and industry. During the Boer war, however, Tille’s outspoken pro-German nationalism brought him in conflict with his British host society. After being physically attacked by his students he returned to Germany and published a highly anglophobic monograph. Tille personifies the paradox of Anglo-German relations in the pre-war years, which deteriorated despite an increase in intercultural transfer and knowledge about the respective Other.

Conferencia y debate posterior con Simon Zabell, artista y profesor de Bellas Artes en la Universidad de Granada, uno de los autores más reconocidos dentro del panorama contemporáneo español. La sesión versó sobre el proceso creativo de su último proyecto, que da título a la conferencia, centrándose en el cruce disciplinar que en éste se produce entre la pintura y la literatura, particularmente la última novela de Joseph Conrad. De este forma, se proyectó durante la sesión en primicia un adelanto de montaje del documental que Zabell ha rodado entre Tahiti y Granada acerca del proyecto. Zabell, Después de estudiar pintura y escultura en esta Universidad, desarrolló un interés en los efectos de la performance y la narrativa sobre la pintura y la instalación, que le llevó a estudiar escenografía con Philip Prowse en Slade School of Fine Art de Londres. Desde entonces ha utilizado principalmente la pintura, la escultura y la instalación para desarrollar proyectos con un fuerte contenido narrativo y escenográfico, y que a menudo se basan en obras de creadores previos, como el autor radical francés Alain Robbe-Grillet y el compositor Karlheinz Stockhausen. Estos proyectos se han expuesto ampliamente en salas del Reino Unido, España y Suecia, y en numerosas ferias de arte como SCOPE LONDON, PINTA NY, ARCO, BALELATINA BASEL etc. El proyecto actual de Zabell, Our Men in Tahiti, se basa en la novela The Ebb Tide (Bajamar) de Robert Louis Stevenson y está acompañado de una película documental que saldrá a la luz en 2016.
