Abstract
This edited volume examines the representation of victims beyond the categories of the “victim cult,” self-victimization, and the victim–perpetrator dichotomy. Adopting a transnational perspective, it mainly considers literature written after 1989, leveraging concepts of dialogical and multidirectional memory to facilitate differentiated perspectives in the politics of memory regarding the highly charged figure of the victim.
 
Das Buch befasst sich aus literatur- und kulturwissenschaftlicher Sicht mit der Repräsentation von Opfern abseits von ‚Opferkult‘, (Selbst-)Viktimisierung und Täter-Opfer-Binarität in vorwiegend nach 1989 entstandenen literarischen Texten. Dabei werden Konzepte dialogischen bzw. multidirektionalen Erinnerns sowie eine transnationale Perspektive produktiv gemacht, um differenzierte Sichtweisen auf die gedächtnispolitisch brisante Figur des Opfers zu eröffnen.
