"A well-translated and well-edited volume, it presents a clear overview of a major problem in German culture." - Sander L. Gilman, The University of Chicago "After the horrors of the Holocaust, how does a new generation of German men experience and express their masculinity? This wide-ranging collection explores the meaning of masculinity in contemporary Germany, both in reality and representation. From psychoanalytic probes into the darker recesses of recent familial past to contemporary neo-Nazis and recent literary trends, these authors shed new light on the gendered after-effects of collective hallucination and trauma." - Michael Kimmel, author of Manhood In America: A Cultural History
