Quellen und Forschungen zur Literatur- und Kulturgeschichte v.43 (277)
Content:
The plot of a novel is expected to move purposefully toward an ending. Until the 19th century, processes within a reality believed to have been created by God were also understood to work in this way. As a result, novels claimed to represent reality through their purposefulness. Because of Charles Darwin, this world outlook entered a state of crisis. The study shows how narratives changed as a result of a new concept of reality as being erratic and random. How could novels depict this conception of reality? This question is discussed with reference to examples from literary and aesthetic texts
