One of the most intriguing questions of our time is how some of the masterpieces of modernity originated in a country in which personal liberty and democracy were slow to emerge. This Companion provides an authoritative account of modern German culture since the onset of industrialisation, the rise of mass society and the nation state. Newly written and researched by experts in their respective fields, individual chapters trace developments in German culture - including national identity, class, Jews in German society, minorities and women, the functions of folk and mass culture, poetry, drama, theatre, dance, music, art, architecture, cinema and mass media - from the nineteenth century to the present. Guidance is given for further reading and a chronology is provided. In its totality the Companion shows how the political and social processes that shaped modern Germany are intertwined with cultural genres and their agendas of creative expression.

This book comprises studies of six leading West German novelists, Gerd Gaiser, Wolfgang Koeppen, Heinrich Boll, Gunter Grass, Martin Walser and Uwe Johnson. The analysis of their work involves preoccupation with the social reality underlying their themes and attitudes, with the tension between the writer and society, with the writer as intellectual, and with the problem of commitment. Form and language are closely examined, often in connection with the predominant problem of identity and role-playing. These studies involve cross-references to other writers in and outside Germany, and serve also as the basis for the discussion of such matters as the writer’s position in the pluralistic society and his relation to the mass-media, ideology and authority.
