Synopsis

Writing the Child considers the evolution of German cultural memory concerning wartime trauma and victimhood. In dialogue with the voices of German war children, the Kriegskinder, the texts analysed echo but also contest exculpatory victimologies that have shaped German memory frameworks from the 1940s up to the post-1989 present.

À propos de l?auteur

Susanne Baackmann is Associate Professor of German at the University of New Mexico. Informed by having lived and worked in two cultures and languages, her research is focused on issues of gender, memory and trauma in the context of German-speaking cultures. Previous book publications explore how contemporary women authors have rewritten narratives of love and desire and how gender inflects narratives about violence and war. She has published widely on memory and postmemory in recent literature, films, photography and art. In her teaching she focuses on contemporary German culture, as well as fairy tales, notions of Heimat and memory studies.
