About the author
Andreas Gößling
55 books2 followersAndreas Gößling studied German Literature, Journalism, and Political Science. He received a scholarship from the German Academic Scholarship Foundation for his dissertation on Thomas Bernhard's novels. After receiving his doctorate (Dr. phil.) in 1984, he received a postdoctoral scholarship from the German Research Foundation (DFG) for a three-year research project on Robert Walser's novels.
Andreas Gößling became known as an author with his two novels about the culture of the ancient Maya, The Mayan Priestess (2001) and In the Temple of the Rain God (2003), about which ZDF filmed the documentary film “The Mysteries of the Maya. A Journey Through Time to Guatemala” for its series “RomanWelten” (Roman Worlds) at the original locations of the novels.
Gößling's novels are characterized by the combination of historical accuracy and mythical-fantastic elements, as well as literary complexity and suggestive suspense. Gößling has undertaken numerous research trips, primarily in Latin America. The author has also addressed European history and mythology on numerous occasions in his novels, especially in his major novels Faust, the Magician (2007) and, for young readers, OPUS (2 volumes, 2010).
In his non-fiction books on myth and cultural history, Gößling repeatedly highlights the intercultural similarities of archetypes, mythical figures and magical or religious rituals, including in Drachenwelten (2003), a large-scale comparison of the creation myths of various cultures and epochs.
Andreas Gößling is married to the author and translator Anne Löhr-Gößling and lives in Berlin, where he also runs MayaMedia Publishing and Agency.
