- As a single-authored, book-length study, resulting from sustained research over 5 years, this output brings together the fields of German Jewish, memory, and trauma studies. It develops a complex theoretical framework for the study of postmemory discourses that draws on multiple disciplines (cultural, literature, media and memory studies) and critically re-evaluates major existing paradigms. The study’s conceptual contribution is underpinned by rigorous analyses of key contemporary German-Jewish writers (Biller, E. Menasse, Stein, Vertlib), investigating the material in considerable depth and from multiple perspectives.
