From the mid-1990s, in the wake of heated debates on the future direction of culture, politics and society in a more 'normal', united country, German literature has become increasingly diverse and seemingly disparate - at the one extreme, it represents the attempt to 'reinvent' German traditions, at the other, the unmistakable influence of Anglo-American forms and pop literature. A shared concern of almost all of recent German fiction, however, is the contemporary debate on New Germany in context.German literature20th centuryHistory and criticismCongressesGerman literature21st centuryHistory and criticismCongressesGermanyIntellectual life20th centuryCongressesGermanyIntellectual life21st centuryCongressesGerman literatureHistory and criticismGerman literatureHistory and criticism830.90092Taberner StuartMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910784507003321German literature in the age of globalisation3864581UNINA
