This book was originally published in 1997. The Bildungsroman - the
story of the development or formation of a young man - is the most
famous German contribution to the European novel. Most studies of
the Bildungsroman have concentrated on its underlying philosophy;
Michael Minden addresses it as literature. He offers detailed
readings of some of the best-known novels in the German language,
from Goethe to Mann, including Wilhelm Meisters Lehrjahre, Agathon,
Anton Reiser, Hyperion, Heinrich von Ofterdingen, Der grune
Heinrich, Der Nachsommer, and Der Zauberberg. Looking at the novels
from the points of view of gender, subjectivity, and the ideology
of the aesthetic, and taking account of the literary theory, Minden
uncovers aspects and motifs which subvert traditional ideas of the
Bildungsroman and raise questions about the function and status of
literature.
