This study proposes a novel solution, understanding the satiric in the postwar era as a set of writing practices: figures of inversion, myth-making, and citation. By showing how writers and theorists alike deploy these devices in new contexts, this book reexamines the link between German postwar writing and the history of satire, and between literature and theory." --Provided by publisher.ParadigmsSatire, GermanHistory and criticismGerman literature20th centuryHistory and criticismGerman.Prose.Satire.Theory.Satire, GermanHistory and criticism.German literatureHistory and criticism.837/.009GN 1701rvkBowles Daniel James1981-1711405MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910819455103321The ends of satire4102694UNINA
