معرفی
Maja Lindholm is a doctoral student at Lund University, affiliated with the Centre for Languages and Literature within the Faculty of Humanities and Theology. She specializes in German literature and has been conducting research since autumn 2022 on late modern love semantics and the literary portrayal of love in works by contemporary female German-language authors.
Her research interests include:
- German-language contemporary literature
- Feminist literary criticism
- Love studies
- Postdigital theory
- Pop and subculture fiction
- The modern short story
Her research output centers on emotional representation, late modernity, and the narrative construction of relationships in 21st-century German literature. The themes of her work reflect a strong interdisciplinary engagement with sociology, gender studies, and literary theory. Her recent working paper analyzes emotional development in Judith Hermann’s novel Alice, particularly in relation to grief and identity.
She is the principal investigator on her dissertation project Eine prekäre Liebe, supervised by Alexander Bareis, which investigates the discourse of relational incapacity in contemporary female German-language writing within late capitalist and late modern contexts.
Maja Lindholm teaches beginner-level German courses, including TYSB02 and TYSB11, contributing to undergraduate language education. She is actively involved in the academic community through Lund University’s Research Portal and serves as a page manager for institutional web content.
