Intimate Histories
Transnational connections between African American and German histories in the “century of extremes” are often misunderstood or overlooked. Intimate Histories uncovers important links and sites of struggle in the history of race, the Nazi period, and the fight for civil rights in both East and West Germany.

Was so unterschiedliche Autoren wie Anna Seghers, Arnolt Bronnen, Heinar Kipphardt, Adolf Endler, Wolf Biermann, Gisela Kraft oder Ronald M.

Einige von ihnen fanden in der sozialistischen Wahlheimat ihre Themen und ihr Publikum: häufig in zunehmender Distanz zur Kulturpolitik, mitunter auch in großer Nähe. Andere kehrten dem Land nach wenigen Jahren enttäuscht oder verbittert wieder den Rücken oder wurden hinausgedrängt. Die Beiträge beschäftigen sich mit den Motiven, Umständen, biographischen Konsequenzen, Selbstdeutungen und literarischen Resultaten der Übersiedlung in die SBZ bzw. in die DDR zwischen 1945 und 1989.
