Discusses Weiss's plays, fiction, autobiography, and non-fiction prose. Pp. 22-25 illuminate "Die Ermittlung", an oratorio based on Weiss's 1964 attendance at the Frankfurt war crimes trial. He used actual documents both aesthetically and politically. 18 of the defendants appear with their real names, either defending themselves with the jargon of doing their duty or totally denying their guilt. Among the charges against these Nazis were conducting medical experiments, torture, and murder. Ch. 7 (pp. 107-129) elucidates Weiss's three-volume novel "Die Ästhetik des Widerstands", about resistance to Nazism in thought and action. The characters in the novel are based on members of the Rote Kapelle resistance group. Politics and creative thinking (art) are shown as complementary, not contradictory.

This book is about the ambition, in a set of paradigmatic writers of the twentieth century, to simultaneously enlist and break the spell of the real—their fascination with the spectacle of violence and suffering—and the difficulties involved in capturing this kind of excess by aesthetic means. The works at the center of this study—by Franz Kafka, Georges Bataille, Claude Simon, Peter Weiss, and Heiner Müller—zero in on scenes of agony, destruction, and death with an astonishing degree of precision and detail. The strange and troubling nature of the appeal engendered by these sights is the subject of The Pathos of the Real. Robert Buch shows that the spectacles of suffering conjured up in these texts are deeply ambivalent, available neither to cathartic relief nor to the sentiment of compassion. What prevails instead is a peculiar coincidence of opposites: exaltation and resignation; disfiguration and transfiguration; agitation and paralysis. Featuring the experiences of violent excess in strongly visual and often in expressly pictorial terms, the works expose the nexus between violence and the image in twentieth-century aesthetics. Buch explores this tension between visual and verbal representation by drawing on the rhetorical notion of pathos as both insurmountable suffering and codified affect and the psychoanalytic notion of the real, that is, the disruption of the symbolic order. In dialogue with a diverse group of thinkers, from Erich Auerbach and Aby Warburg to Alain Badiou and Jacques Lacan, The Pathos of the Real advances an innovative new framework for rethinking the aesthetics of violence in the twentieth century.

Some authors strongly criticized attempts to rebuild a German literary culture in the aftermath of World War II, while others actively committed themselves to 'dealing with the German past.' There are writers in Austria and Switzerland that find other contradictions of contemporary life troubling, while some find them funny or even worth celebrating. German postwar literature has, in the minds of some observers, developed a kind of split personality. In view of the traumatic monstrosities of the previous century that development may seem logical to some. The Historical Dictionary of Postwar German Literature is devoted to modern literature produced in the German language, whether from Germany, Austria, Switzerland or writers using German in other countries. This volume covers an extensive period of time, beginning in 1945 at what was called 'zero hour' for German literature and proceeds into the 21st century, concluding in 2008. This is done through a list of acronyms and abbreviations, a chronology, an introductory essay, a bibliography, and hundreds of cross-referenced dictionary entries on writers, such as Nobel Prize-winners Heinrich Bsll, GYnter Grass, Elias Canetti, Elfriede Jelinek, and W. G. Sebald. There are also entries on individual works, genres, movements, literary styles, and forms.

Die Studie untersucht obsessiv wiederkehrende Bilder und Metaphern im Prosawerk von Peter Weiss. Zunächst werden durch textnahe Analyse von 'Abschied von den Eltern' die Muster der Selbstdeutung und die Umrisse einer Kunstauffassung dargelegt, die sich in immer neuen Bildern von Flug und Sturz, von himmelhoher Erhebung und tiefem Fall kristallisieren. Sie sind Elemente einer "Ästhetik des Abgrunds", die zusammen mit dem Gestus des Widerstands den Kern der Weiss'schen Poetik ausmachen. Ihre Entwicklung wird von den frühesten Texten bis zur 'Ästhetik des Widerstands' verfolgt und in den Zusammenhang der literarischen Theorie der Moderne gestellt.

Odo Marquard (1928–2015) gilt zu Recht als einer der scharfsinnigsten Essayisten unter den Philosophen. Sein ebenso pointierter wie polemischer und humoristischer Stil prägt sein Werk, das er selbst mit einem Augenzwinkern als "Transzendentalbelletristik" bezeichnet. Die Möglichkeiten der Philosophie sah er kritisch, sprach von Kompetenzverlust und schuf das Wortungetüm "Inkompetenzkompensationskompetenz" für die Bemühungen des Faches. Ironisch führte er aus, "Philosophie ist, wenn man trotzdem denkt". Unverrückbar verteidigte er die Geisteswissenschaften. Den Menschen versteht er als Mangelwesen, als homo compensator. Marquard erhielt wichtige Preise, etwa den hochangesehenen Sigmund-Freud-Preis für wissenschaftliche Prosa sowie den Cicero-Rednerpreis. Dieser Band versammelt 17 zentrale und bleibende Texte aus seinem Werk. Das Nachwort von Franz Josef Wetz würdigt die philosophische Lebensleistung Marquards.
