Dimensionen des Erhabenen bei Adalbert Stifter

This study examines Stifter's ambivalent notion of the sublime, reflected in criticism of his works for their monotony as well as praise for their unfathomability. Along with textual interpretations that reveal the dimensions and functions of the sublime in his works, the author presents Stifter's reception of contemporary natural scientific philosophy and offers a systematic approach to the analysis of the sublime as a textual phenomenon.
