Literatura intercultural frente a canon nacional en Alemania: pautas para la resolución de un conflicto

Abstract

Intercultural literature, by its mere existence, obligates German studies and the disciplines that deal with literature in general to reflect and come to conclusions that transcend, whether wanting to or not, the usual framework of literary studies. In our article we debate the concepts of national literature and canon in relation to the quoted corpus, with the aim of challenging ourselves, as researchers who form part of academic institutions, to take a methodologically based position when considering one of the most topical questions in Germany, that of its national identity in the period of migrations.
