Magischer Realismus als Verfahren der späten Moderne

The study shows that the post-1920 texts of German realism drafted an intermediate-stage poetics, which integrated opposing literary procedures (realism, expressionism) and also communicated contradictory worldviews of modernity. This model, including all its paradoxes, remained operative until 1960, and thus proved robust in the face of classical breaks in literary history.
