"This fascinating and informative collection of twenty-two mostly
original essays showcases feminist German Studies at its finest ...
Decentering Germany in our own scholarly work will help us to
further challenge the settled definitions of gender and Germanness
which this volume so splendidly details." . Women in German
Cultural Studies have been preoccupied with questions of
national identity and cultural representations. At the same time,
feminist studies have insisted upon the entanglement of gender with
issues of nation, class, and ethnicity. Developments in the wake of
German unification demand a reassessment of the nexus of gender,
Germanness and nationhood. The contributors to this volume pursue
these strands of the cultural debate in German history, literature,
visual arts, and language over a period of three hundred years in
sections devoted to History and the Canon, Visual Culture, Germany
and Her "Others," and Language and Power.
