Description

Robert Walser gilt heute als einer der wichtigsten Prosa-Autoren des 20. Jahrhunderts. Obwohl er mit seinen Romanen »Geschwister Tanner«, »Der Gehülfe« und »Jakob von Gunten« in Literatenkreisen früh eine gewisse Bekanntheit erwarb, bewegte sich Walser Zeit seines Lebens an den Rändern der Gesellschaft und gelangte erst postum zu internationalem Ruhm. Erstmals werden Leben und Werk dieses bedeutenden Autors in einem Handbuch dargestellt, das Analysen der einzelnen Werke auf dem neuesten Stand der Forschung umfasst und Einblicke in übergeordnete thematische Aspekte vermittelt. Behandelt werden Entstehungskontexte sowie Schreib- und Darstellungsverfahren mit Blick auf aktuelle wissenschaftliche Fragestellungen. Der abschließende Teil zur Rezeption veranschaulicht, wie aus einem einmal fast vergessenen Autor ein Klassiker der Moderne wurde.
