GERMAN 341: Contemporary German Literature
Contemporary German-language literature is a wide and varied field. Its most critical voices often foreground historical experiences of war, violence, displacement, and (non-)belonging in central Europe. Our discussions will center on these issues, as reflected on by prize-winning writers from Germany and Austria. We will read texts by the "old guard" (Jelinek, Kluge, Muller, Ozdamar, Sebald), as well as by an exciting newer generation of authors (including Erpenbeck, Haderlap, Kermani, Khider, Otoo, and Petrowskaja).
