through the example of case studies of European literatures and to look at them from an
intercultural perspective. The concept of the Other not only varied from epoch to epoch  but it
was tied to the development of the respective culture. Reflection on identity and otherness
forms the core of the contributions collected in this volume  which focus on texts  authors or
myths from French  German  English  Polish  Russian and Swedish literature from the 16th
century until today. The selection of texts is intended to demonstrate the complexity and
originality of the theme of otherness versus identity in contemporary literary research and to
point to ist topicality. The volume sees itself as the result of comparative studies in which
literary researchers discuss selected aspects of identityforming otherness  especially on a
narrative level.
