Sommario/riassunto |
|
Diese Anthologie bietet eine Vielzahl von Perspektiven zum Thema "Deutsche Vereinigung". Behandelt werden literarische, autobiographische und journalistische Auseinandersetzungen sowie Essays über Film und Theater. Die Vereinigung beider deutscher Staaten änderte sowohl die geopolitischen als auch die wirtschaftlichen, sozialen und kulturellen Grenzen Deutschlands und Europas. Der vorliegende Band untersucht in drei Teilen die Reaktionen ost- und westdeutscher Schriftsteller und Regisseure auf diese Umbrüche: in fiktiven, autobiographischen/journalistischen und in filmischen Texten. Die besprochenen Autoren und Regisseure nehmen Stellung nicht nur zu den Änderungen, die sie in ihrer Umgebung erlebten, sondern geben auch Auskunft über ihr verändertes Verhältnis zu ihrer Vergangenheit im geteilten Deutschland. |
The unification of the two German states changed the geo-political, economic, social, and cultural borders of Germany and Europe. This volume in three parts researches how East German and West German authors and directors reacted to these radical changes. The basis of this research are fictional, autobiographical, journalistic, and cinematic texts. The authors and directors presented in this volume not only comment on the changes which they themselves experienced but also voice their changing attitudes to their own past within the divided Germany. |
