Publisher's Synopsis
Text in German. In addition to questions closely related to literary production, writing as a medium of reflection is also gaining importance in other constellations. In self-testimonies, autobiographies, diaries and letters, writers provide insight into everyday occurrences and experiences, sensations and thoughts, and make writing the object of documentation, epistemic exploration, (self-)reflection and also psychological relief. Beyond these forms of engagement with writing that are aimed at authenticity, literary production itself is often the subject of the plots of novels, films and series, including the staging of specific writing situations, rituals and places as well as various forms of writers block and writing breakdowns.
