Even today, the echo of those debates is still audible in spatial narratives. Discussing the way in which literary figures are positioned within new hierarchies such as gender, class, or ethnicity, this volume shows how the space of the imagined Central Europe has been de- and reconstructed. Special attention is paid to the role of the past in shaping contemporary spatial discourse.Literatur und Kultur im mittleren und östlichen Europa ;17.OsteuropaCentral EuropeLiteraturLiteraturePolitikPoliticsOsteuropaCentral EuropeLiteraturLiteraturePolitikPolitics320.44049Konarzewska AleksandraedtGlosowitz MonikaedtBaran-Szoltys MagdalenaedtIbler ReinhardedtBaran-Szołtys MagdalenactbGronenthal Mariella CctbKonarzewska AleksandractbLlop IrisctbWierzejska JagodactbMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910958827403321Imagined geographies3978067UNINA
