With Ottmar Ette, she is co-editor of the Alexander von Humboldt in English (HiE) series at the Chicago University Press, which has published new English translations and critical editions of three of Humboldt’s major writings on the Americas: Political Essay on the Island of Cuba (2010), Views of the Cordilleras and Monuments of the Indigenous Peoples of the Americas (2011), and Political Essay on the Kingdom of New Spain (2019). A new German translation of the Cuba-Essay, on which Kutzinski collaborated with Ingo Schwarz, is forthcoming from Metzler. In addition to her translations of Alexander von Humboldt: The Complete Drawings from the American Travel Diaries (2018) and Writing-between-Worlds: TransArea Studies and the Literatures without a Fixed Abode (by Ottmar Ette, 2016), Kutzinski has edited and co-edited the collections Alexander von Humboldt’s Transatlantic Personae (2012), Alexander von Humboldt and the Americas (2012), and Langston Hughes in Context (2023). Having published widely on the literatures of the Americas, Kutzinski is the author of Sugar's Secrets: Race and the Erotics of Cuban Nationalism (1993) and The Worlds of Langston Hughes: Modernism and Translation in the Americas (2012).
