Abstract

This book, done one year after my dissertation, reminds me so much of it and of the 70's! It is published from a typewritten manuscript, including capital letters that do not quite get down to the line of type. Slightly larger in format than my dissertation, it has the same look. The Studienreihe Humanitas is a series of books explicitly dedicated to works like dissertations and books-based-on-dissertations of young academics. The other feature that makes me think of the 70's is the somewhat heavy-handed insistence on socio-economic and even Marxist analysis. I will not have a chance to get through the book at this point, but for now I find the book's sub-title revealing: historical-material analysis of this genre in the emancipation of the bourgeois. Hmmm…. I do hope to get to the book because I look forward to the specific comments on all those eighteenth-century German fabulists that led up to Lessing, not least of all Godsched, von Hagedorn, and Gellert. Lessing gets serious attention. There is a T of C at the beginning. 340 heavy pages. A glance through the Literaturverzeichnis turned up not a single book in a language other than German.
