Summary/Abstract: This article presents a philological analysis of the transformations and liminal phenomena found in the second chapter of Yoko Tawada’s Etüden im Schnee [Études in the Snow]. The purpose of this analysis is to examine the multidimensional implications of Etüden im Schnee in an intertextual in-between space, which makes possible the constitution of non-normative possibilities of existence between the inner and the outer, and the human and the animal, worlds. The analysis is based on poststructural and postcolonial research methods.
