Ebook: Kriminalität erzählen: Studien zu Kriminalität in der deutschsprachigen Literatur (1570-1920)

Since the 1980s, philologists have cooperated with penal, social, and cultural historians to unearth factual and fictional interrelationships in stories about criminality. This volume presents research articles on the history of German-language prose literature from 1983 to 2007, illuminating new methodological approaches.

• In social practice, criminality is depicted in non-fiction and fictional narratives
• Seen from a sociocultural view, literary narrative is interconnected in a broad range of narratives with the history of penal law
