Ansteckungen, Spaltungen, Variationen zum Schreiben oder Töten : erzählte Suizide seit Werther
Stephan Kurz
Abstrak
Suicide narrations have been viewed through the lens of Goethe's landmark novel. This paper, grounded in studying the epistolary novel genre, aims at enhancing knowledge about this text's impact on both the generic and the motif successions in (German language) literature by looking into the narrative modes employed in depictions of writing and killing, both of which are singular moments of subjectivity. Examples for later variations on the suicide motif are mainly taken from Fin-de-Siècle literature which in particular expands the means of narration, while the broad concept of textual interrelations remain unquestioned.
