This article examines Berlin's ascendance to the status of a global city and in particular the tethering of this discourse to the city's attraction for institutions of world literature. Drawing on fieldwork between 2011 and 2017, it offers a new, critical vantage on the multiple trajectories that migrants follow into and through Berlin, as well as how these paths collide. Training ethnographic attention on one important site in which these crossings occur—a literary workshop in a gentrified borough of the former East—reveals long-standing assumptions about the social lives of texts and urban relationships, in which ephemeral forms are understood to be degraded or weak. Mobilizing instead a poetic language of prosody allows us to see how different kinds of circulations are stitched together in the making of everyday life. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
