Doeblin's texts, which range widely across contemporary discourses,
are paradigms of the encounter between literary and scientific
modernity. With their use of 'Tatsachenphantasie', they explode
conventional language, seeking a new connection with the world of
objects and things. This volume reassesses and reevaluates the
uniquely interdisciplinary quality of Doeblin's interdiscursive,
factually-inspired poetics by offering challenging new perspectives
on key works. The volume analyses not only some of Doeblin's
best-known novels and stories, but also neglected works including
his early medical essays, political journalism and autobiographical
texts. Other topics addressed are Doeblin's engagement with German
history; his relation to medical discourse; his topography of
Berlin; his aestheticisation of his own biography and his relation
to other major writers such as Heine, Benn, Brecht and Sebald. With
contributions in English and in German by scholars from Germany and
the United Kingdom, the volume presents insights into Doeblin that
are of value to advanced researchers and to students alike.
