Ebook: Geschichte - Kunst - Nation: Die sprachliche Konstituierung einer 'deutschen' Kunstgeschichte aus diskursanalytischer Sicht

Working from a discourse analysis perspective, Müller examines how a national art history was constituted through its linguistic construction and transmission. The study demonstrates how German art history was ‘manufactured’ through language, particularly in the 19^th and 20^th centuries. The study operates at the interface between text linguistics, the history of concepts and the history of words and makes an important contribution to the history of national consciousness.
