    Mit dem Begriff des Plagiats findet Wilhelm Raabe in “Gutmanns Reisen” eine Chiffre für seine Praxis unhintergehbarer Intertextualität.

    Raabe schreibt eine Prosa, die er an der Verdichtung der Versdichtung bemisst und die sich die Umwendung zum Modell nimmt. Ein Text, der diesen Umstand im Zeichen der Korrektur ‘dürftiger Prose’ inszeniert und den ich daher eine Programmschrift der Prosa nenne, liegt mit “Deutscher Mondschein” vor. Auf der Textbühne der Satire werden nicht nur d…[Read more]

    In foregrounding the epochal figures of Albrecht von Wallenstein and the Emperor Ferdinand, Alfred Döblin’s historical novel Wallenstein (1920) would seem to confound the genre’s habitual focus on average, typical figures.
