Thema: Familienroman

Familienroman (Generationenroman oder Familiensaga)
Mit Familienroman (auch als Generationenroman oder Familiensaga bezeichnet) meinen wir nicht den Fachbegriff »Familienroman« aus der Psychologie; unser Löwenherz-Thema bezieht sich darauf, dass die Konstellation Familie in der erzählerischen Anlage für den Roman kennzeichnend ist.
Darum geht es uns hier auch nicht entscheidend darum, dass die Lebenssituation von »Lesben und Schwulen in ihren Familien« im Vordergrund steht ? für diesen Fall haben wir ein eigenes Löwenherz-Thema angelegt.
