Schiller's Wallenstein, Maria Stuart, and Die Jungfrau von Orleans
The legacy of the Enlightenment - criticism by Schiller's contemporaries Hegel, Herder and Ranke - Schiller during the century of historicism the metaphysical crisis, World War II and the aftermath Schiller's late historical plays and the Third Reich Schiller from the left - early leftist criticism and criticism in the German Democratic Republic the Federal Republic of Germany and post-(re)unification criticism
The Stage and the State
There is considerable evidence in Schiller's theoretical writings that he viewed his theatrical domain as a counter-position to the absolutist state, inasmuch as the theatre was a realm where politics and morality were not estranged from one another. ' The theatre, for Schiller, observed higher and more complex standards of law and order and had more enlightened methods of dealing with human vice or human weakness. In his impassioned defense of t…

The Feminization of Dr. Faustus
Words Chiseled into Marble
Contents: Meyer's means of representing artworks in verbal narratives are analyzed narratologically. His art-historical realism, his stance as translator, and his ambivalence towards the cultic function of the arts are studied

does not validate these pious and perhaps interested statements-many of them are addressed to well-placed correspondents who wanted to hear exactly that.In short, I believed I saw in his work as a whole a denial of direct social utility and an affirmation of a more complex aesthetic endeavor.Keller's stock was not particularly high in US German graduate programs in the 1980s, and many colleagues were confused at my interest in what they considere…
Im Banne der Melusine
Readers and Their Fictions in the Novels and Novellas of Gottfried Keller
This study seeks to alter our understanding of Keller’s realism by problematizing the act of reading within fiction. The story of reading in Keller’s fiction is a self-conscious meditation on the schism between life and its literary representation—and it emphasizes the incapacity of that representation to actually and substantially influence the life it is based on. This has consequences for the didactic writer. The act of reading here generally …
The Facts of Fiction
As a self-conscious purveyor of realistic fictions or lies'' that resemble truth, Conrad Ferdinand Meyer typically altered the conventional relations between (understood as facticity) and its opposite (that which is contrary to fact) in his fiction. This fictional revision of the (empiricist) truefalse opposition consists in the fact that for Meyer's fiction the ontological status of a given fact often depends entirely on the determination of the…

Gotthelf im Zeitgeflecht
Keller's Fictional Readers
Nearly all of Keller's fiction issues from a single basic situation: an ordinary person, seized by extraordinary ideals or aspirations, constructs an alternative world of the imagination and lives according to its values until he is enlightened of eliminated by the `reality he has chosen to ignore. Indeed, Keller's novels and novellas are so singlemindedly dedicated to themes of illusion and error that the idea of an `errant' or `deluded' Keller …
Sexualitat im Gedicht
The Functions of Fictions
Heroes and heroines of novels are notorious readers. They tend to practice a kind of misreading rarely encountered outside of fiction, namely the uncritical reception of literary fictions as life-imperatives or as specific models for self-comprehension. They are literally hypnotized by their books and subsequently engage in the most bizarre attempts to alter their reality, and bring their lives into closer correspondence with the fictions they re…
