Ein neuwertiges Exemplar. - What role does literature play in the struggle between changing manifestations of culture and counterculture? Are literary works simply an outlet for unfulfilled countercultural ideals, or can they perform a constructive and transformative part within society? Coming from a variety of disciplines, the essays in this volume trace modes of resistance in a wide array of cultural (con)texts, addressing topics such as the nature of language and narrative, the relation between fictionality and factuality, and the dynamics of cultural change. They all view counterculture as a kind of action in the world that, different from prototypical forms of political activism, is complex, playful, and based on an open-minded and open-ended process of exploration and innovation.
