A History of German Literature : From the Beginnings to the Present Day, Hardback Book

A History of German Literature : From the Beginnings to the Present Day Hardback

Hardback

Description

Since the appearance of its first edition in Germany in 1979, A History of German Literature has established itself as a classic work used by students and anyone interested in German literature. The volume chronologically traces the development of German literature from the Middle Ages to the present day.

Throughout this chronology, literary developments are set in a social and political context.

This includes a final chapter, written for this latest edition, on the consequences of the reunification of Germany in 1990.

Thoroughly interdiscipinary in method, the work also reflects recent developments in literary criticism and history. Highly readable and stimulating, A History of German Literature succeeds in making the literature of the past as immediate and engaging as the works of the present.

It is both a scholary study and an invaluable reference work for students.
