Bøker av Bettina Brandt

Cultural texts born out of migration frequently defy easy categorization as they cross borders, languages, histories, and media in unpredictable ways. Instead of corralling them into identity categories, this volume, building on the influential work of Leslie A. Adelson, interrogates how to respond to their challenge by developing innovative transnational, multilingual, and multi-temporal lenses attuned to the transformative touch of new tales.

Explores both constants and changes in representations of warlike and violent women in German culture over the past six centuries.
