"Mit dem noch gültigen Paß eines nicht mehr existierenden Staates" : Erzähltechnik und das Thema „Heimatlosigkeit und Exil" in Christa Wolfs Roman Stadt der Engel oder The Overcoat of Dr. Freud (2010) / Narratology and the theme of "unrootedness and exile" in Christa Wolfs novel Stadt der Engel oder The Overcoat of Dr. Freud (2010)

This thesis examines narrative techniques and the theme of unrootedness and exile in Christa Wolf’s novel Stadt der Engel oder The Overcoat of Dr. Freud. By using Genette’s terminology on narratology and close-reading of the novel the thesis shows that a sense of distance and unrootedness is created within the novel and that the theme of unrootedness and exile creates a frame for the narration, which lacks of a plot in a traditional meaning and which’s main character’s subject is fragmented, which is typical for a poststructuralist novel.
