Identity as a literary paradigm Creation of identity in Literature.

身份是历史性地创造和设计的。然而，它们被视为自然。这些身份往往被简单地假设为现实中存在的条件。在这项研究中，我们分析了德国文学中（主要是民族）身份的构建。在许多文学作品中，群体认同作为前提发挥着重要作用。我们试图用地震学的方法来证明文学作品记录身份的机制。本文通过对赫尔德、托马斯曼和霍夫曼斯塔尔的不同作品的分析以及对翻译意义的理论思考，试图解决被视为自然的身份所带来的问题。

Identities are created and designed historically. Nevertheless they are treated as natural. This identities are often simply assumed as conditions existing in reality. In this research we have analyzed the construction of (primarily national) identity in German literature. In many literary works group identity plays an important role as prerequisite. We tried to prove the mechanisms of how literary works document identities seismographically. Through the analyses of different works by Herder, Thomas Mann or Hofmanstahl as well als in theoretical reflections on the meaning of translation, we tried to solve the problems posed by identities that were regarded as natural.
