Synopsis
Contributing Authors

Gunter Grass’ Geschichten werden polyphon erzahlt. Mehrstimmigkeit und Dialogizitat kennzeichnen jedoch auch die interdisziplinare Forschung zum Oeuvre des Nobelpreistragers und omnikreativen Kunstlers.

Critical observer of the world – multicreative artist – master of verbal expression. The Nobel Prize winner in Literature, who died in 2015, still inspires and provokes controversy. Gunter Grass’s stories are written in polyphonic narration in the sense defined by Mikhail Bakhtin. Multivocality and dialogicity also characterise research dedicated to Grass. Depending on the cultural viewpoint, discipline and historical moment, the oeuvre of the author, born in Danzig in 1927, can be read in different ways. This results in a kaleidoscopic shift in focus and opens up new room for interpretation. The present volume is indebted to this plurality. Twenty-one authors from nine countries discuss the Grass phenomenon, drawing on approaches from memory studies, borderlands studies, intertextuality research, intermediality and postcolonial studies, among others.
