Wie kaum ein anderer deutschsprachiger Autor hat Peter Handke das literarische und intellektuelle Leben der Bundesrepublik bestimmt. Seit dem Jahr 1966, in dem sein erstes Buch bei Suhrkamp erschien, er bei der Tagung der Gruppe 47 in Princeton Aufmerksamkeit erregte und sein erstes Theaterstück „Publikumsbeschimpfung“ aufgeführt wurde, gilt er als Provokateur und ‚enfant terrible‘, aber auch als Garant sprachlicher Innovation. Formale Vielfalt und stilistischer Reichtum kennzeichnen sein Werk ebenso wie ein breites thematisches Spektrum. Literaturwissenschaftler und Weggefährten unternehmen eine kritische Bestandsaufnahme und befassen sich mit den literarischen, ästhetischen und politischen Stationen, Orten und Positionen des 1942 in Kärnten geborenen Schriftstellers. Der Band geht auf eine Konferenz zurück, die im Februar 2012 im Deutschen Literaturarchiv Marbach im Rahmen des Suhrkamp-Forschungskollegs stattfand. Erbietet u. a. eine ausführliche Forschungsbibliografie.

Winner of the 2019 Nobel Prize for Literature "My mother has been dead for almost seven weeks: I had better go to work before the need to write about her, which I felt so strongly at her funeral, dies away and I fall back into the dull speechlessness with which I reacted to the news of her suicide." So begins Peter Handke's extraordinary confrontation with his mother's death. In a painful and courageous attempt to deal with the almost intolerable horror of her suicide, he sets out to piece together the facts of her life, as he perceives them. What emerges is a loving portrait of inconsolable grief, a woman whose lively spirit has been crushed not once but over and over again by the miseries of her place and time. Yet well into middle age, living in the Austrian village of her birth, she still remains haunted by her dreams.

Peter Handke is probably the most versatile and controversial of the postwar generation of German-speaking writers. His status as Austria's most renowned living author - a dubious honor, in his opinion - owes as much to his artistic range (plays, novels, a memoir, film scripts, radio plays, poems, and essays) as it does to his reputation for flouting literary and theatrical convention. Handke was only 24 when, in 1966, he challenged the strategic direction of the Gruppe 47 - by then an "establishment" coalition, of German-speaking writers and artists - and later that year assaulted what he considered the "lies" of the theater in Publikumsbeschimpfung (Offending the Audience), rejecting the 1960s' theatrical norms of illusion, subjectivity, and political indoctrination. In his works of the intervening 27 years Handke has sought to show how visual perception, verbal expression, and memory can distort reality. In this comprehensive assessment of Handke's writing, Richard Arthur Firda attributes the author's international readership (many of Handke's books were translated into English before he turned 40) to his career-long flair for publicity, a talent for sensing the future direction of not only the marketplace but also the avant-garde. Firda maintains that such works as Handke's phenomenally successful Die Angst des Tormanns beim Elfmeter (1972; The Goalie's Anxiety at the Penalty Kick) have linked him intimately with the European postmodern aesthetic, with the cutting edge of literary experimentation. Although the failure of language as valid communication is a theme common to all Handke's work, Firda argues that Handke in fact uses language as a precision tool - so much so thatlanguage would seem the only discernible "hero" of his explorations. In Kaspar (1968), for instance - perhaps Handke's best-known play - a mute is successfully subjected to "speech torture", but his mastery of words does not guarantee lasting control over the objects words signify, and in the end the conventions of language succumb to chaos. Firda sees Handke's 1966 refutation of the Gruppe 47 as a watershed event in the shaping of postwar European literature. Whereas the Gruppe 47 sought to renew German language and literature on moral and ethical issues and staunchly defended German literature as a means for social regeneration, Handke found inspiration in the likes of French prose theoretician Alain Robbe-Grillet and theater of the absurd dramatists Eugene Ionesco and Samuel Beckett. According to Firda, Handke admits feeling the need to find "another country", another Austria, and he expects to find this country in "language", as revealed in the process of writing. Having lived abroad in Frankfurt, Dusseldorf, Berlin, and Paris for many years, Handke seems more a writer of modern Europe than of his native Austria. This introduction to the writings of such a complex writer should prove essential reading to students interested in the literature of the new Europe.

Since his now famous appearance on the literary stage in 1968 novelist, playwright and poet, Peter Handke has remained on the forefront of the literary vanguard, having earned the praise and recognition of critics in Europe and North America alike. In fact, in a review essay of September 2000, The New York Review of Books called him the premier prose stylist in the German language, and one of post-war Europe's most recognisable literary figures. Since the publication of his early theatrical works, Handke has gone on to publish over twenty-five prose novels, as well as additional works for the theatre, collections of poetry, diaries and essays. His works have ranged in style from the French influenced nouveau roman of the late 1960s to works characteristic of the New Subjectivity movement in West Germany in the 1970s, while his novels and stories of the 1980s and 1990s exhibited a new-found appreciation for narrative and issues of storytelling. He has also published a series of polemical essays on the war in Yugoslavia which have been criticised severely by scholars and intellectuals. has written, as well as on the thematic aspects of his work.

At the beginning of Nobel Prize winner Peter Handke's novel A Moment of True Feeling, Gregor Keuschnig awakens from a nightmare in which he has committed murder, and announces, "From today on, I shall be leading a double life." The duplicity, however, lies only in Keuschnig's mind; his everyday life as the press atache for the Austrian Embassy in Paris continues much as before: routine paperwork, walks in the city, futile intimacies with his family and his mistress. But Keuschnig is oblivious to it all, merely simulating his previous identity while he searches for a higher significance, a mystical moment of true sensation which can free him from what the novel calls life's "dreadful normalcy." Convinced that, if he fails, life's meaning will be revealed to him only when it is too late, he looks for portents everywhere. Keuschnig's search takes him through all of Paris. At every step, his feelings are interwoven with acute observation of its streets, buildings, cafes, parks, sky. It is an intimate and evocative journey, in a city that is at once supportive and familiar, strange and provocative.
