This volume addresses the parallel proliferation of discourses of Heimat and of migration in contemporary German-language culture and demonstrates that the entanglement of migration and Heimat can be productive: it can help us to reframe what it means to have a home, to lose one, find one, or belong to one UR - https://doi.org/10.1515/9783110733150 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9783110733150 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9783110733150/original ER -
