“Queer Exiles” with Ben Robbins From Christopher Isherwood to Djuna Barnes, some of the most prolific queer writers of the 20th century wrote in exile. Ben Robbins joins me to explain how and why queer writers connected with each other in exile and how (in)voluntary movement shaped their stories. Ben shares some surprising encounters from the archives and paints a picture of some of the locations of queer exile: Berlin, Tangier and Capri.   References: Networked Narratives: Queer Exile Literature 1900-1969 Funded by the Austrian Science Fund/FWF (Project DOI: 10.55776/P35199)   https://www.uibk.ac.at/projects/networkednarratives/ Ben Robbins’ “‘Marriages ought to be secret’: Queer Marriages of Convenience and the Exile Narrative” JAAAS: Journal of the Austrian Association for American Studies, vol. 5, no. 1, Dec. 2023, pp. 100–122, https://doi.org/10.47060/jaaas.v5i1.173.

How is this similar to and different from ‘expat’? -      How does exile relate to class status and financial means? -      Why are queer networks so important in this context? -      What does Ben say about exile and (involuntary) movement affecting narrative form? -      How do you find out where you can safely travel?
