About the journal

(ZAA) Zeitschrift für Anglistik und Amerikanistik traditionally reflects the entire spectrum of English and American language, literature and culture. Particular attention will be paid to the new literatures in English, the development of linguistic varieties outside Britain and North America, the culture of ethnic and other minorities, and the relationship between anglophone and neighbouring cultural areas, including lexicography and translation studies. The journal also welcomes contributions which examine theoretical and interdisciplinary issues in literary, linguistic, and socio-cultural research. Due to its own unique background, ZAA is particularly committed to providing a forum for national and international exchange of opinion and experience in order to develop future strategies for, and to examine the past history of, English and American studies in both East and West.
Thus, ZAA invites contributions concerning a wide range of research on current issues, survey articles featuring recent developments in the fields of culture, literature and language, research reports as well as proposals and critiques concerning new directions within the discipline.

Die Zeitschrift für Anglistik und Amerikanistik (ZAA) setzt sich zum Ziel, das gesamte Spektrum der Anglistik und Amerikanistik zu vertreten. Dabei sollen gleichermaßen die traditionellen sprach-, literatur- und kulturwissenschaftlichen Bereiche der Fachdisziplin wie auch ihre jüngeren Erweiterungen angemessen berücksichtigt werden. Besondere Aufmerksamkeit sollen die neuen englischsprachigen Literaturen, die Entwicklung des Englischen außerhalb des britischen und nordamerikanischen Sprachraums, die Kultur ethnischer und anderer Minderheiten sowie die sprachlichen und literarischen Beziehungen zwischen den anglophonen und den benachbarten Kulturräumen erhalten. Entsprechend finden auch interdisziplinäre Diskussionen zu Grundfragen der Literaturwissenschaft, der Linguistik oder der soziokulturellen Forschung Raum. Aufgrund ihrer Geschichte versteht sich die ZAA in besonderer Weise als Forum für den nationalen und internationalen Austausch fachpolitischer und forschungsgeschichtlicher Perspektiven und Erfahrungen der Anglistik und Amerikanistik in Ost und West.
Mit diesem Ziel setzen die Herausgeber einen weiten Rahmen für mögliche Beiträge. In Betracht kommen: Aufsätze zu forschungsrelevanten Einzelfragen, Überblicksartikel zu gegenwärtigen kulturellen, literarischen oder sprachlichen Entwicklungen, Forschungsberichte sowie programmatische oder kritische Statements zu neueren wissenschaftlichen Tendenzen.

Heike Paul
, The Rhetoric and Romance of Mobility: Euro-American Nomadism Past and Present
This essay investigates figures of mobility, more specifically the nomad/nomadic subject, in an US-American context. Tracing the precarious presence of this figure in 17th century early American colonial discourse as well as 19th century US-American imperial romanticism sheds new light on contemporary cultural theory. Linking the underlying ideological frameworks decipherable in each instance, the essay points to re-incarnations of romanticized notions of mobility currently to be found in minority discourse and feminist as well as postcolonial theories. While these returns often come in the guise of a vocabulary of (prospective) liberation and subversion, they do conjure up scenarios of past oppression.

Karsten Fitz, Employing the Strategy of Transculturation: Colonial Migration and Postcolonial Interpretation in Diane Glancys Pushing the Bear
This essay examines transculturation as strategy of negotiating history and culture in Diane Glancys novel Pushing the Bear. Instead of depicting the tragedy of the Trail of Tears ¨C and thus giving prominence, once again, to a history of suffering of American Indian peoples ¨C Glancy describes how the Cherokee cope with their historical burden on a daily basis in words, thoughts, and stories. Against notions of cultural pollution which still loom large when dealing with American Indian histories and cultures, I consider this novel an example of how a tribal culture, which has been adapting to change, uses its transcultural abilities in order to survive and begin again in a different place.

Katja Sarkowsky, A Decolonial (Rite of) Passage: Decolonization, Migration and Gender Construction in Jeannette Armstrongs Slash
Offering a concept of decolonial reading as an alternative to the theoretical and terminological difficulties posed by postcolonial literary theories as an interpretative framework for Native American literature, this essay analyzes the importance of migration and gender for the political agenda put forward in Jeannette Armstrongs novel Slash (1985). The spiritual connection to the land, often coded as feminine, and the move away from the land and what it stands for as a negative counterpoint plays an important role in many contemporary Native American texts such as Slash. However, I argue that the novel deploys this dichotomy of rootedness/migration in a number of highly ambivalent ways. Central for my decolonial reading of the text is the question of how migration, cultural identity, and gender intertwine. By demonstrating how the women with whom the protagonist is involved are constructed as embodiments of the dichotomy of rootedness/migration, I hope to illustrate the texts inherent tensions and ambivalences that ultimately also plague the decolonial agenda of the novel, that is the search for culturally appropriate forms of resistance and decolonization.

Christine Matzke, Musical Passages: Colonial and Post-Colonial Readings of West African Music
A critical exploration into African music and its textual representation can illuminate discursive operations of colonialism and the subtleties of cultural resistance. It can also illustrate that phenomena of post-colonial migration are not necessarily located in, or relate to, the former imperials centres in the West. This article attempts to trace passages of West African Music as paradigms of post-/colonial peregrinations through an analysis of ethnomusicological writings. Drawing attention to the ambiguities of anthropological representations, it first demonstrates how accounts of indigenous music helped construct a colonial Other as an intrinsic element of imperial discourse before investigating hybrid musical styles which had the potential of destabilising colonial identity formation. Finally, it elucidates how West African music was re-Africanised  by the African Diaspora in a  reversal of the middle passage, thus attesting to the dynamics of migratory culture.

Susanne M¨¹hleisen, From Mother Tongue to Metaphor of New  Imagined Communities: Creole and Its Migrant Transformations
This paper examines linguistic changes in relationship to identity formation of three generations of West Indian presence in Britain. Caribbean English-lexicon Creole, the mother tongue of the majority of first generation immigrants has undergone a number of transformations in its five decades of usage in the urban centres of Britain: (1) linguistic transformations, from a distinct Jamaican, Trinidadian or Guyanese Creole to a highly variable London Jamaican (2) changes in its functions, from a referential to a symbolic usage; and (3) shifts in the group of users, from West Indians with genealogical ties to include white British and Asian youths in performative acts of identity. Creole, it is argued here, transcends the traditional idea of the language/nation relationship. With its many different voices and new alignments Creole has become a metaphor for new  imagined communities.

Mita Banerjee,  Hold Down the Furniture  Rushdie s Postcolonialism and the Diseases of Fixity
The following paper starts out from the assumption that, in its debunking of racist exclusivity and cultural purism, postcolonial theory has in fact also created its own Other. As hybridity and syncretism have been elevated onto the pedestal of normativity, all forms of cultural belonging have concomitantly become suspect. Curiously enough, this suspicion, I would argue, is a property of postcolonial theory as much as of postcolonial fiction. Tracing the loathing of non-syncretism propounded by literary theory to Salman Rushdie s fictional politics, I propose that it is Rushdie s female characters who have become the epitome of pre-postmodern/pre-postcolonial certainties. The fact that these women should be portrayed as unappetizingly hysterical thus emerges as a fictional punishment for their failure to comply with a universal rootlessness that both theory and fiction stipulate as essential.
