Global characters. Terézia Mora's Alle Tage as transcultural literature in the age of globalisation (e-book) (used book) | bookbook.eu
Reviews
Description
Seminar paper from the year 2018 in the subject Literature - Comparative Literature, grade: 2,0, University of Groningen, language: English, abstract: In this essay, I argue that Terézia Mora with her novel "Alle Tage" ("Day In Day Out", 2004) breaks with all German literary categorisations and is able to catch the ambiguity and disorientation of the 21st century from multiple viewpoints, in the setting of migrant experience. "Alle Tage" is a piece of transcultural literature, not only in the broad sense of being "concerned with borders and borderlands between cultures", but more specifically because it is able to capture "the identities emerging from these locations" (Gerstenberger 2004: 212). It will be the aim of this essay to show how Alle Tage is moving away from the notion of a "stable" German identity towards complex identities in the age of globalisation. In this way the migrant becomes a metaphor of the century itself, and one-sided "we" and "them" arguments become redundant. "Alle Tage" has the ability to hold a mirror up to us.
