Die erste historisch-kritische Briefedition der bis auf wenige Ausnahmen unbekannten 195 Schreiben Sophie von La Roches an den Darmstadter Prinzenerzieher Johann Friedrich Christian Petersen bringt fur das biografische Alterskapitel Sophie von La Roches uberraschende Erkenntnisse. Die Neuidentifizierung des Korrespondenzpartners ist bereits die erste: Bisher war man davon ausgegangen, die Briefe seien an den beruhmten Neologen, Hofprediger Georg Wilhelm Petersen, gerichtet. Die mikrohistorische' Analyse der Texte ermoglicht es, die politischen Positionen der Schriftstellerin zu rekonstruieren: Ihre Haltung in den zwei letzten in Offenbach verlebten Jahrzehnten war mitnichten resignativ. La Roche nahm nachhaltigen Einfluss auf die Erziehung eines zukunftigen Souverans und initiierte Heiratsprojekte zwischen Darmstadt, Braunschweig und Grobritannien, um eine restaurative, preuenfreundliche Politik zu befordern. Die standortgetreue diplomatische Umschrift erlaubt die Lekture ihrer Briefe mit minimalen editorischen Eingriffen. Die lebhafte Topografie der Schreiben entsprach ihrer Auffassung vom Brief als einem schriftlich fixierten Gesprach. Ausfuhrliche Kommentare erlautern die Sinnzusammenhange und decken neue Bezuge in La Roches europaweitem Netzwerk auf.

Die Rhetorik als Seelenkunst' hat enormen Anteil an der in empfindsamer Literatur ausgestellten so genannten naturlichen Seelenaussprache' ihre Artistik wird als Verbergungskunst ausgestellt. Als Rhetorik der Mitte' (mesotes-Ideal) stellt die Empfindsamkeit einen Positivkatalog der Emotionalisierung bereit, denn der Affektstufe ethos wird zugeschrieben, mittels sanfter Affekte zu erfreuen,zu besanftigen und mittels Menschlichkeit Sympathie und Sittlichkeit zu erreichen (Quintilian). Darunter lassen sich insbesondere die integrativen (fruh-)aufklarerischen Ausgleichsbestrebungen der Empfindsamkeit fassen, die das prodesse et delectare' propagieren und empfindsame Literatur Moderomane' beispielsweise zwischen Tugendbotschaft und Unterhaltungskunst ansiedeln. Die literarische Empfindsamkeit schlagt eine Brucke zwischen einer Seelenkunst, die im 18. Jahrhundert zu einer subjektiven und individuellen Groe avanciert, und einer Geselligkeit, die den Einzelnen in die Gemeinschaft integrieren soll. Ziel der Studie ist es, durch die strukturelle Verknupfung von Tugendethos und Rhetorik der Mitte' eine rhetorik- und kulturgeschichtlich fundierte Lesart empfindsamer Literatur anzubieten, die den Publikumserfolg am und fur den Menschen' ebenso zu erklaren vermag wie das gleichzeitige Scheitern an den eigenen Vorgaben.

Als prekarer Teil des affirmativen Reichspatriotismus (1870-1880) trieben diffamierte oder gering geachtete Geschichtsromane wie Dahns Kampf um Rom, Fontanes Vor dem Sturm, Freytags Ahnen oder Sacher-Masochs Weiblicher Sultan Geschichtsreflexion und Identitatsbildung entscheidend voran. Wie Meyers Jurg Jenatsch problematisieren sie den zeitgenossischen Umgang mit Geschichte und stehen damit am Beginn der Krise des Historismus. Die vorliegende Dispositivanalyse weist das hochreflexive Ineinander von Affirmation und Subversion nach, zu dem sich die Romane mit Nietzsches Historienschrift, Droysens Geschichtssemiotik, Menzels Abkehr vom Geschichtsgemalde, aber auch mit Denkmaleinweihungen, den Jubelfeiern 1870/71, Verlagsanzeigen, Professorenromanen, Zeitschriftenartikeln und -illustrationen verschranken. Eingehende Interpretation gangiger und abseitiger Text- und Bilddokumente entwerfen zentrale Elemente der Kulturgeschichte des 19. Jahrhunderts vollig neu.

Die Untersuchung geht der Frage nach, wie Normen uber das gegenseitige Verhalten von Frauen und Mannern vermittelt werden. Aus sozialpsychologischen, ritual- und diskurstheoretischen Ansatzen entwickelt sie fur das Medium Drucktext ein Modell, wonach vor allem die Darstellung von Konfliktverlaufen normativ wirkt.Die Arbeit fuhrt vor, dass in protestantischen deutschen Drucktexten des 17. Jahrhunderts die funf Konfliktverlaufsmuster 'Kompliment', 'Disputation', 'Verleumdung', 'Rehabilitation' und 'Bue' fur die Vermittlung von Normen des gegenseitigen Verhaltens der Geschlechter verantwortlich sind. Sie kommen in so unterschiedlichen Gattungen wie Schafergedicht und Landesordnung vor, halten sich nicht an Grenzen inhaltlich definierter Diskurse und werden als normative Muster selbst durch abweichende Variation konstitutiert.

This study treats a central complex of issues which have hitherto received little attention from Goethe scholars, namely the question of the conception and position of the subject in Johann Wolfgang von Goethe's novels and shorter narrative pieces. In his study the author combines approaches from the history of ideas and poetology in a systematic way and succeeds in demonstrating that the question of the ego, its identity and boundaries is a recurring problem in Goethe's writings, and one that he obviously did not succeed in resolving; at the same time he shows that Goethe's figures, with their internal breaks, already display clear features of the modern subject.

The study examines narrative processes and modes of writing in hitherto neglected early works by Franz Kafka. Close readings of the texts reveal how his writing develops towards a dream-like imaginative narration. This analysis of Kafka's early work reveals for the first time the prerequisites for that literary breakthrough in which Kafka entered the literary scene as a narrator in 1912.
