| وصف الكتاب | This study adopts an interdisciplinary approach to explore how literature by GDR women became a forum for critical approaches to history which challenged the official state discourse. An introductory chapter offers broad theoretical reflections on the modes of literature and historiography, and considers the significance of feminism as a tabooed critical discourse in the GDR. The question of why GDR literature and histororiography developed so differently in the 1970s and 1980s is then pursued through a series of comparative readings of texts by both prominent writers, such as Christa Wolf, Irmtraud Morgner, and Helga Koenigsdorf, and less established authors, such as Helga Schutz, Sigrid Damm, Renate Feyl, and Brigitte Struzyk. This is not only the first study to offer a detailed comparison of historical and literary discourses in the GDR, but also the first to illuminate relations between three topics popular in East German women's writing: the National Socialist past; the lives of historical women; and the use of mythical themes and forms to voice critiques of history. |
| المراجعة التحريرية | ... a work of remarkable scope, and combines textual analysis with contextual awareness in exemplary fashion. The writing is lucid, the scholarship first-rate, and the book as a whole is of great interest and value not merely to GDR specialists, but to scholars interested in women's writing, biography, historical fiction, and the sociology of literature more generally. * Modern Language Review * |
