André Fischer All Books: Mythmaking sku-5288033608
No rating yet(0 reviews)André Fischer, All Books, sku-5288033608. In The Aesthetics of Mythmaking in German Postwar Culture, Fischer examines why myths are created and what they offer in times of crisis. The hardcover discusses novelist Hans Henny Jahnn, writer Hubert Fichte, artist Joseph Beuys and filmmaker Werner Herzog.
It places postwar mythmaking in relation to nineteenth-century romanticism, Nazism and the narrative, visual and performative arts. Fischer challenges an exclusively rational account of Vergangenheitsbewältigung, or coming to terms with the past, and considers mythmaking a source of existential orientation and a formal strategy of modernism beyond storytelling.
