englischThe bilingual oeuvre of Karen Blixen/Isak Dinesen contains many traces of inescapable connections and distant reverberations from the entire world: relations to far-off places, figures of mobility and foreignness; a ‘global mix’ of literary forms; innumerable references to intertextual works from world literature; and provocative perceptions of the world. Drawing upon globalisation theories, this study is the first to focus on this hitherto neglected aspect of Blixen’s/Dinesen´s relationship to the world, which runs right through the anecdotes, figures and tropes in her work. In their engagement with the world as a whole, her narratives reflect models and dynamics of globality, while aesthetically representing connectivity and an awareness of foreignness.

»Der die offenen Enden von Blixens Texten in den Mittelpunkt rückende Schlussteil unterstreicht noch einmal die methodische Reflektiertheit dieser sehr lesenswerten Studie.«
Frederike Felcht, Nordeuropaforum 2022, 134
