Description

Explore the complex landscape of German science fiction through this academic study from De Gruyter. This volume, part of the 'Studien Und Texte Zur Sozialgeschichte der Literatur' series, examines the evolution of the German futuristic novel between 1918 and 1945. The text analyzes how authors of this era envisioned a future shaped by atomic fragmentation, rockets, and advanced weaponry. It investigates the hope these writers held for saving both Germany and the world through technological advancement. A significant portion of the study focuses on the technocracy movement and its influence on the literature of the time. You will find a detailed analysis of the tension between technocratic ideals and the political realities of the era, including the skeptical stance of the National Socialists toward these movements. This work provides a deep dive into the social history of literature, connecting genre typology with the socio-political shifts of the early 20th century. It is an essential resource for researchers interested in the intersection of technology, politics, and literary history.
