Description
The German academic and writer W. G. Sebald made an astounding ascent into the canon of world literature.
In this volume, leading experts from both the English- and the German-speaking worlds explore his celebrated prose works published in the short span from 1996 to his premature death in 2001.
Special attention is paid to Sebald's unpublished texts and books awaiting translation into English.
The volume - illustrated with many unpublished archive images - scrutinizes the dual nature of Sebald's life and work, located between Germany and England, academic and literary writing, vilification and idolization.
Through nearly forty essays on a broad range of topics, W.
G. Sebald in Context achieves a revision of our understanding of Sebald, defying many cliches about him.
Particular attention is paid to the manifold ways in which Sebald's writings exerted a legacy far beyond literature, especially in the areas of art, cinema, and popular music.
