Michael Rodegang Drescher analyzes national mythologies in American and German literature. Precise narratological analyses are paired with detailed, transnational readings of Hawthorne's The Scarlet Letter, Gutzkow's Wally, die Zweiflerin, Brown's Clotel, and Heine's Deutschland. He focuses on processes of mythological resignification, a literary phenomenon carrying significant implications for questions of identity, democracy, and nationalism in Europe and America.
The study marries literature, mythology, and politics and contributes to the study of American and German literature at Ein Wintermarchen.
