By focusing on moments of irritation, or queer instances, the subjects of investigation challenge established norms, hierarchies, and ideologies. At stake are one-dimensional fixations of meaning, procedures of heteronormative standardization as well as the intellectual foundations of their legitimacy. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn nine chapters, the contributors investigate materials from the 17\u003csup\u003eth\u003c\/sup\u003e century and the Thirty Years War (e.g. Grimmelshausen, Lohenstein) as well as the 21\u003csup\u003est\u003c\/sup\u003e (Kehlmann, Steidele), in which techniques of self-assertion and safeguarding are devised. The literary texts unhinge established societal and epistemological orders, on the one hand by pointing at the inflexibility and limitations of traditional orientation markers of the self, and on the other by the exposing abusive, discriminative, and unacceptable power structures of the day.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Peter Lang AG, Internationaler Verlag der Wissenschaften","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51043680158039,"sku":"9783034344036","price":34.2,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9783034344036.jpg?v=1750959105","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/insecurities-queer-life-narratives-of-early-modern-times-9783034344036","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
