This project focuses on the interrelationships between gender, politics and the romance in literary accounts of German unification. Through an exploration of how the political ?marriage? between East and West Germany, with its conventionalised gender roles, is mapped onto literary marriages, the project examines the challenges and opportunities that unification has afforded men and women. It will yield insights into the ways in which unification has rewritten the scripts for femininity and masculinity and forced a transformation of intimacy. Its findings will enhance knowledge of gender relations in post-communist Europe and the relationships between gender, the nation and modernity.

该项目的重点是德国统一文学叙述中性别、政治和浪漫之间的相互关系。通过探讨如何政治“婚姻”？东德和西德之间的传统性别角色被映射到文学婚姻上，该项目探讨了统一给男性和女性带来的挑战和机遇。它将深入了解统一如何改写女性气质和男性气质的剧本，并迫使亲密关系发生转变。其研究结果将增强人们对后共产主义欧洲性别关系以及性别、国家和现代性之间关系的了解。
