Overview

About this book

For some authors, the "new beginning" after 1945 did not represent a definitive break with the past, in terms of poetology, aesthetics, and the substance of their work. This volume traces different writers’ responses to this moment of upheaval, examining authors who were rooted and exerted influence in Western and Eastern Europe. Focusing on this threshold moment furnishes a rich picture of a complex literary situation.
