This is the third and final volume of papers given at the 'Fragile
Tradition' conference in Cambridge, 2002. Together these volumes
provide a conspectus of current research on the cultural,
historical and literary imagination of the German-speaking world in
the period since 1500. This volume highlights the connections
between developments in technology and scientific thought since the
sixteenth century on the one hand, and the ways in which the
creative imagination of literary writers has responded to those
developments on the other. It focuses particularly on the changing
conceptions of nature, art, and what it means to be human in the
modern period, as the effects of industrial technology and
biological knowledge became apparent. It also explores the impact
on literary writing and the established reading culture of the new
media of photography, film and telecommunication in the twentieth
century.
