This collection of essays by international specialists in the
literature of Berlin provides a lively and stimulating account of
writing in and about the city in the modern period. The first eight
chapters chart key chronological developments from 1750 to the
present day, while subsequent chapters focus on Berlin drama and
poetry in the twentieth century and explore a set of key identity
questions: ethnicity/migration, gender (writing by women), and
sexuality (queer writing). Each chapter provides an informative
overview along with closer readings of exemplary texts. The volume
is designed to be accessible for readers seeking an introduction to
the literature of Berlin, while also providing new perspectives for
those already familiar with the topic. With a particular focus on
the turbulent twentieth century, the account of Berlin's literary
production is set against broader cultural and political
developments in one of the most fascinating of global cities.
