Daglind Sonolet, What Culture for Unified Germany ? German Intellectuals and the Culture of Eastern Germany
The end of the communist regime and the reunification of Germany have intensified the debate over the cultural identity of the country. The reevaluation of the postwar literature of East Germany imperceptibly redefines the foundations of German culture either by returning it to its "authentic" sources, or by defining a democratic culture purified of all traces of the "irrational". Of particular interest is the attempt to discredit all East German literature by establishing a link between the ideas that inspired the conservative revolution of the 1920s and those that have informed contemporary writers like Mailer, Wolf, Braun and Hein. These attempts reduce writing to ideology while presenting as democratic the notion of a closed culture. Source : Éditeur (via Persée) |
