The Tangled Path to Modernity: German Realism and its Heritage

Research output: Contribution to conferencePaper

Abstract

The paper reconsiders the place of Realism within the European canon by arguing that German Realists be considered forerunners of a twentieth-century critical and literary interest in decentring. It proposes that this term be used as a new focus for the analysis and evaluation of German Realism.
