Inhalt:
W.G. Sebald’s status as one of the most significant German-language authors of the 20th century is rooted in his quest for historical truth beyond ‘facts’. Through an in-depth analysis of Sebald’s œuvre, this book proposes a new paradigm of literature as historiography that moves discussions of genre beyond documentary literature and the historical novel.
