The Political Use of Antiquity in the Literature of the German Democratic Republic

Year: 1992

Type: article

Abstract: will come back to Huchel's poem at the end of my paper, in the hope that the interpretation of a number of other texts may help us to better understand his enigmatic memento.For centuries the imaginative reception and creative transformation of Greek and Roman antiquity has played a significant role in German literature (as of course in other European literatures too).It is widely known that this tradition of "Antikerezeption"^has lived on well into the 20th century.
