Aims & Scope

TRANSIT is a web-based, multi-media production that explores German responses to questions of national identity and fantasies of mobility. The journal investigates the creative responses to multilocal, multilingual experiences developed by immigrant and naturalized populations, shedding new light on debates about transnational connections.

The journal covers the work of individuals who have experienced the irresolvable tension between home and dislocation, including explorers, adventurers, refugees, and exiles. We invite critical work, in English or German, from all areas in which movement and transition are major forces, including translation, travelogues, and other forms of cultural transfer.

TRANSIT welcomes new readings of well-known literary works and films, as well as analysis of non-canonical texts, public debates, and new media. We also encourage comparative studies that frame the German example within larger theoretical and historical concerns.
