Deutsche Identitaten: Narrative Der Zugehorigkeit in Der Deutschen Literatur Seit 1989

This volume examines literary identity constructions in German-language contemporary literature since 1989. Against the backdrop of historical caesuras such as reunification, migration, and global crises, the contributions analyze various forms of identity: German, Jewish-German, migrant and post-migrant, transcultural, and maritime identities. As a medium for reflecting societal transformations, literature functions as a privileged space for negotiating complex identity processes. Through interdisciplinary approaches, the studies explore ruptures, relations, and memories as central dimensions of identity formation and understand literary texts as an archive of collective cultural experiences.
