Black German Studies is an interdisciplinary field that has
experienced significant growth over the past three decades,
integrating subjects such as gender studies, diaspora studies,
history, and media and performance studies. The field's contextual
roots as well as historical backdrop, nevertheless, span centuries.
This volume assesses where the field is now by exploring the
nuances of how the past - colonial, Weimar, National Socialist,
post-1945, and post-Wende - informs the present and future of Black
German Studies; how present generations of Black Germans look to
those of the past for direction and empowerment; how discourses
shift due to the diversification of power structures and the
questioning of identity-based categories; and how Black Germans
affirm their agency and cultural identity through cultural
productions that engender both counter-discourses and
counter-narratives. Examining Black German Studies as a critical,
hermeneutic field of inquiry, the contributions are organized
around three thematically conceptualized sections: German and
Austrian literature and history; pedagogy and theory; and art and
performance. Presenting critical works in the fields of performance
studies, communication and rhetoric, and musicology, the volume
complicates traditional historical narratives, interrogates
interdisciplinary methods, and introduces theoretical approaches
that help to advance the field.
