Gender, Collaboration, and Authorship in German Culture challenges
a model of literary production that persists in literary studies:
the so-called Geniekult or the idea of the solitary male author as
genius that emerged around 1800 in German lands. A closer look at
creative practices during this time indicates that collaborative
creative endeavors, specifically joint ventures between women and
men, were an important mode of literary production during this era.
This volume surveys a variety of such collaborations and proves
that male and female spheres of creation were not as distinct as
has been previously thought. It demonstrates that the model of the
male genius that dominated literary studies for centuries was not
inevitable, that viable alternatives to it existed. Finally, it
demands that we rethink definitions of an author and a literary
work in ways that account for the complex modes of creation from
which they arose.
