This workshop aims at positioning the East–West relation into a wider spatial dynamic within Europe and postcolonial space, especially regarding the North and the South. The imagination of the North and the South decenters the notion of the uniform West and East, becomes a reservoir of alternative – desired as well contested – models and allows for the overcoming of the East–West binarism. Contacts, networks and coalitions existed between the North and the South in East Central Europe as well as across the East–West divide. In the workshop we want to address representations, images and critical reflections of the West in relation to the European as well as global North and South in East Central European literatures throughout the last century, taking into account also Western literature written by immigrants.
