Life

In 1965 she completed her doctoral thesis at the Christian-Albrechts-Universität zu Kiel and in 1966 was employed as a teacher at the Danish grammar school in Flensburg. Since then she has been writing novels, also for magazines and collections, including time-critical articles.

Karin Johannsen-Bojsen is active in media and local politics for the South Schleswig voter association (SSW) in Flensburg. She is a member of the cultural association of the Danish minority ( Südschleswigscher Verein ), representative of the Danish minority at ZDF and lives in Flensburg.

Works

The focus of her novels is the relationship between German and Danish in the border region and the examination of their own South Schleswig or Danish identity.
