Description

Explore the complex relationship between historical fiction and identity formation in the German-speaking world between 1870 and 1880. This scholarly work examines how historical novels, often dismissed or defamed, actually drove historical reflection during a period of imperial patriotism. Through a dispositive analysis, the text explores how these novels managed the tension between affirmation and subversion. The research connects these literary works to major intellectual movements of the time, including Nietzsche's historical writings and Droysen's historical semiotics. It also addresses the shift seen in Menzel's approach to historical painting. This volume serves as a deep dive into the crisis of historism and the problems of how history was handled in the late 19th century. It is an essential resource for those studying German literature, cultural history, and the evolution of historical thought during this transformative decade.
