- This book investigates how belonging is articulated and understood from the beginning of the twenty-first century in an extended selection of German literary texts (ten works by nine authors). The selection of texts allows for a rich analysis of 1945, 1968 and 1989/90 as historical junctures, examining their place in a global Germany. While concentrating specifically on representations of place, generation and family, the book draws on a wide range of theoretical ideas from diverse fields including humanist geography, migration, memory and cultural studies and literary scholarship. It is proposed for double-weighting on account of this extended scope and reach.
