Containing entries on over four hundred authors of fiction, poetry and drama from Germany, Austria and Switzerland, this invaluable work of reference presents material of a range and depth that no other book on the subject in English attains. For the second edition, the entries have been updated to include the most recent works of German literature. A number of new entries have been added, dealing in particular with the East German literary scene and the changing literary landscape after reunification.
In addition to basic biographical facts, the Companion offers summaries, information on involvement in literary groups and political developments, schools and movements, critical terms and aspects of the other arts, including film.
Raymond Furness, Professor of German, and Malcolm Humble, Lecturer in German, both at the University of St Andrews, have drawn on their extensive experience of teaching and research to produce a work which will be indispensable to all students of German and will provide fascinating reading for anyone interested in German literature.
