This study investigates the negotiation process involved in the
definition of the latitude and license permissible in 'satirical'
writing over a period of more than 200 years. Literature and
literary theory are observed in communicative interaction with
contemporary law, medicine, pedagogics and theology. The productive
force inherent in the cultural taboo imposed on aggression
manifests itself in theory formation and practice. The
investigation closes with analyses of three texts enacting such
negotiations in a literary form: Christian
Thomasius';Ostergedancken+ (1695), an excerpt from
Bodmer/Breitinger's 'Mahler der Sitten' (1746), and Theodor
Haecker's 'Dialog A1/4ber die Satire' (1927).
