These were major preoccupations of male writers as they came to terms with or reacted against the decline of patriarchal authority. The book identifies five leitmotifs which serve to characterize the period between 1880 and 1930: the ""double"", the ""other"" (narcissus and Salome), the nationalization of Narcissus, Kampf or male bondage, and after patriarchy.
