Various critics have argued that these socialist realist fictions were monolithic attempts to translate Communist dogma into the realm of aesthetics. Julia Hell argues to the contrary that they were in fact complex fictions sharing the theme of antifascism, the founding discourse of the German Democratic Republic. Employing an approach informed by Slavoj Zizek's work on the Communist's sublime body and by British psychoanalytic feminism's concern with feminine subjectivity, Hell first examines the antifascist works by exiled authors and authors tied to the resistance movement. 330 8 $aShe then strives to understand the role of Christa Wolf, the GDR's most prominent author, in the GDR's effort to reconstruct symbolic power after the Nazi period. 410 0$aPost-contemporary interventions. 606 $aGerman literature$zGermany (East)$xHistory and criticism 606 $aGerman literature$y20th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aPsychoanalysis and literature$zGermany (East) 606 $aFascism and literature$zGermany (East) 607 $aGermany (East)$xIn literature 615 0$aGerman literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aGerman literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aPsychoanalysis and literature 615 0$aFascism and literature 676 $a833.9/14/09358 700 $aHell$b Julia$01466644 801 0$bNDD 801 1$bNDD 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910786604803321 996 $aPost-fascist fantasies$93677160 997 $aUNINA
