ABSTRACT

The research paper explores belongingness and identity in post-WWII German literature through the lens of iconic scholars, including Wolf, Şenocak, and Grass. The three authors are central and prominent figures in building German literature in the aftermath of the war. National divisions in Germany, rebuilding destroyed communities, and guilt struggles marked this literature. German authors utilized literature during the war to question and comprehend fractures, structures, and the comprehensive identity of a nation with issues of guilt, war, splitting, differences, and divisions. By comprehensively linking Wolf and Grass’ authorships to modern debates on multiculturism and migration, we derive fundamental insights and ideas into their applicability to issues affecting our world today. Some of the contemporary issues are immigration, civil wars, and trauma affecting people. Authors like Grass had a significant role to play during post-WWII in Germany, like dealing with and handling migrant and refugee experiences, returning of soldiers, the Holocaust, and the hardships of life.
