Course/Module description:
The german literature of the 1970s is characterized by the processing of the student movement of 1968. In this context, with the so-called fathers literature also takes place an examination of the parent generation. Stylistically, many novels and narratives characterize a radical subjectivity that has found its way into literary history under the slogan »New Subjectivity«. But this does not exhaust the range of literary writing in the 1970s. New or often used forms of cinematic, journalistic or autobiographical writing can be observed in a number of text.
