Vergessene Konstellationen literarischer Öffentlichkeit zwischen 1840 und 1885

In the mid 19th century, old and new beliefs about literature crossed paths in quite varied ways. The 18 essays in this anthology explore forgotten constellations of literary communication during this period. They cast light on developments in the periodical press and the literary marketplace as well as poetics, analyzing the historical, religious, and societal functions of literature.
