"Twenty years after its fall, the wall that divided Berlin and
Germany presents a conceptual paradox: on one hand, Germans have
sought to erase it completely; on the other, it haunts the
imagination in complex and often surprising ways. Similarly, Cold
War divisions resonate in the global image of the "New Germany."
Several overlapping themes run through the essays: the exportation
of German post-wall debates into other cultural contexts and
representations of the Wall within non-German settings; the
emergence of visual, literary, and psychological imagery derived
from the Berlin Wall well beyond its existence; the importance of
space, geographical, political, as well as imagined, in the
aftermath of the Wall; and the continued artistic as well as
socio-historical engagement with East Germany as a state that no
longer exists but whose memory reverberates in sometimes unexpected
ways not only today but as a projection into the future. "--
