Abstract :This article aims to rethink the development of Turkish-German literature since the 1970s, with a special focus on the structural tension between monolingual and multicultural genres and social spaces. The boom of multicultural promotional politics in the FRG (1985-1995) initiated the ‚progressive monolingualization‘ of (publishable) literary utterances, a development that is reinforced today in German-only language policies at the federal and local level, as well as by the panethnic rubric of ‚Deutschsprachige Literatur‘ (German-language literature). Meanwhile, scholarship still lacks a critical narrative about contemporary translingual literature on German territory, one that would account for persistent literary historical and institutional-pragmatic lacunae within intercultural German Studies and intercultural publishing.
