Conclusions. 330 $aThis book develops a theory of aesthetic fiction's impact on social identities. Throughout five case studies, the author develops the argument that social identities are nurtured by and may even emerge through the conflict between different aesthetic expressions. As it creates affective structures, narrative fiction enables the development and formation of political and cultural identities. This work is part of a field of research that deals with the aesthetics of the everyday and the idea of social aesthetics. It argues for a central role for the arts in the creation and formation of modern society. Social identities emerge in response to aesthetic-sensual patterns of perception. Focusing on five West German public debates in the years 1950 to 1990, this work sheds light upon the transformation of social reality through the discursive adaption of art. Dr. Marcela Knapp is a cultural sociologist. She lives and works in Berlin. 606 $aEthnology$zEurope 606 $aCulture 606 $aCulture$xStudy and teaching 606 $aEurope, Central$xHistory 606 $aEuropean literature 606 $aEurope$xPolitics and government 606 $aEuropean Culture 606 $aCultural Theory 606 $aHistory of Germany and Central Europe 606 $aEuropean Literature 606 $aEuropean Politics 615 0$aEthnology 615 0$aCulture. 615 0$aCulture$xStudy and teaching. 615 0$aEurope, Central$xHistory. 615 0$aEuropean literature. 615 0$aEurope$xPolitics and government. 615 14$aEuropean Culture. 615 24$aCultural Theory. 615 24$aHistory of Germany and Central Europe. 615 24$aEuropean Literature. 615 24$aEuropean Politics. 676 $a306.0943 676 $a943 700 $aKnapp$b Marcela$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01225935 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910484820903321 996 $aCultural Controversies in the West German Public Sphere$92846327 997 $aUNINA
