With its welcome emphasis on writers who are culturally other to a hegemonic German mainstream, the study diversifies and deepens critical perspectives on lived and imagined masculinities within the wider landscape of global neoliberal ecocidal capitalism.--Caitrona N Dhill, Professor of German, University College Cork, Ireland The complex nexus between masculinity and national identity has long troubled, but also fascinated the German cultural imagination. This has become apparent again since the fall of the Iron Curtain and the turn of the millennium when transnational developments have noticeably shaped Germanys self-perception as a nation. This book examines the social and political impact of transnationalism with reference to current discourses of masculinity in novels by five contemporary male German-language authors. Specifically, it analyses how conceptions of the masculine interact with those of nationality, ethnicity, and otherness in the selected texts and assesses the new masculinities that result from those interactions. Exploring how local discourses of masculinity become part of transnational contexts in contemporary writing, the book moves a consideration of masculinities from a "native" into a transnational sphere. Frauke Matthes is Senior Lecturer in German at the University of Edinburgh, UK. She is the author and co-editor of several books and articles on contemporary German-language writing, masculinities in literature, and transnational and world literature. . 001467928 650_0 $$aGerman literature$$y21st century$$xHistory and criticism. 001467928 650_0 $$aMasculinity in literature. 001467928 650_0 $$aLiterature and transnationalism$$zGermany. 001467928 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001467928 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9783031103186 001467928 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z3031103173$$z9783031103179$$w(OCoLC)1322810017 001467928 830_0 $$aGlobal masculinities series. 001467928 852__ $$bebk 001467928 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-10318-6$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001467928 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1467928$$pGLOBAL_SET 001467928 980__ $$aBIB 001467928 980__ $$aEBOOK 001467928 982__ $$aEbook 001467928 983__ $$aOnline 001467928 994__ $$a92$$bISE
