Biography

Hainz's works deal with Paul Celan and Rose Ausländer as well as Friedrich Gottlieb Klopstock; he is also considered to be one of today's most important advocates of Jacques Derrida's deconstruction.[1] He has also done work characterising poetry from a dialectical perspective.

Hainz has done research into some obscure authors and thinkers, such as Leopold von Sacher-Masoch, Alfred Margul-Sperber and Constantin Brunner. He has done research dealing with multiculturalism and its opportunities and history in Czernowitz. His book Vom Glück sich anzustecken (About the luck of getting infected), about translation, has been discussed intensely, with Vincent Kling calling it "beyond praise" in a review.[2]
