Dörte Hansen (also known as Dörte Hansen-Jaax, born 1964 in Husum, West Germany)[1] is a German linguist, journalist and writer.
Life
Hansen grew up in Högel in Nordfriesland;[2] her family spoke Low German at home. She learned her "first foreign language," Standard German, in elementary school.[3]
After graduating high school (
Hansen is married to documentary filmmaker Sven Jaax and has a daughter. From 2005 to 2016, she lived with her family in Steinkirchen, Lower Saxony[5] and now lives in Husum.[6]
Work
After an internship at the magazine Merian she worked until 2008 as a journalist for several radio stations (NDR, WDR, SWR, hr, DLF) and various magazines,[7] until 2012 then as a permanent cultural editor at NDR Info.[3] Since then, she has worked as a freelance author.
In her first novel, Altes Land (2015), Hansen worked critically on the subject of homeland: many city dwellers discovered the countryside as a place of longing for themselves and moved to a village. In Hansen's opinion, however, they were subject to a mistake because they only played country life and made "peasant theater".[3] Hansen connects this topic with the fate of the female protagonist as a homeless postwar refugee from East Prussia in the Altes Land. The book was a bestseller and received praise from most critics.[8]
Her second novel Mittagsstunde (2018) explores German village life. The cultural and interpersonal change in the fictional North Frisian village "Brinkebüll" is portrayed from the 1960s to the present day.[9] The author tells the story without idealizing country life and draws in laconic language often bizarre characters with a lot of empathy.[10][11]
