warum / spielen heimatländer in den lüften karten? A Glimpse into Uljana Wolf's Post-German Poetry
Chiara Liso – 2024
In the interview between Raphaëlle Efoui-Delplanque and Yvonne Adhiambo Owuor, the concept of home emerges as a dynamic force, fluid and boundary-defying. Inspired by this insightful conversation, I explore the intricate interplay of language, identity, and belonging, with a focus on the evolving notion of Heimat. Venturing into the realm of contemporary post-German poetry, I delve into Uljana Wolf's work, particularly her collection meine schönste lengevitch (2013). This cursory exploration shows how scrutinising the effects of closed and open circulation in Wolf's postmonolingual oeuvre could significantly deepen our understanding of how language dynamics sculpt identities and affiliations in the globalised world.
