»Einige Herren sagten etwas dazu« Die Autorinnen der Gruppe 47

There were many more female authors at the infamous Group 47 meetings than Ingeborg Bachmann and Ilse Aichinger, but they have been forgotten, they have fallen out of history. And if they were included in the narrative, then not as the authors of their texts, but as desirable bodies or tragic beings. In Einige Herren sagten etwas dazu, Die Autorinnen der Gruppe 47, Nicole Seifert reports on the experiences of the women in Group 47 and what the treatment of the authors has to do with the content of their texts, with their speaking about ongoing structural violence in post-war West Germany.
