It shows how literary interest in Latin America was vital for understanding oppositional agency and engaged literature in East and West Germany, where authors developed aesthetic solidarities that anticipated conceptual reorganizations of the world connoted by the transnational or the global. Through a combination of close readings, contextual analysis, and careful theoretical work, \u003cem\u003eRevolutionary Subjects \u003c\/em\u003etraces the historicity and contingency of aesthetic practices, as well as the geocultural grounds against which they unfolded, in case studies of Volker Braun, F.C. Delius, Hans Magnus Enzensberger and Heiner Müller. The book's cultural and comparative approach offers an antidote to imprecise engagements with the transnational, historicizing critical impulses that accompany the production of disciplinary boundaries. It paves the way for more reflexive debate on the content and method of German Studies as part of a broader landscape of world literature, comparative literature and Latin American Studies.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"de Gruyter","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45162180247703,"sku":"9783110553031","price":1689.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9783110553031.webp?v=1767104889","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/revolutionary-subjects-9783110553031","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
