TRANSLATION AS A CONCEPT OF LITERARY WRITING IN EXILE: MASCHA KALÉKO AND WERNER LANSBURGH

Abstract

This article explores the phenomenon of literature produced by writers who had to flee from Nazi-Germany between 1933-1945 in which they use translation as a form of multilingual writing. The analysis focuses on texts by Mascha Kaléko and Werner Lansburgh and addresses the following questions: Can translation be seen as a concept or a technique of literary writing in exile and how does it reflect aesthetically on the existential difficulties of language in exile?
