Introduction
My research is on German literature of the 20th and 21st century and its various linkages to critical theory and philosophy from the perspective of a cultural critic. I’m working on novels of (socialist) memories in post-unification Germany, on Ernst Bloch's idea of the upright walk and on Holocaust memoirs.
