Edited by Sina Dell'Anno, Achim Imboden, Ralf Simon, and Jodok Trösch, the book combines theoretical insights with in-depth textual analyses of works by authors such as Joyce, Mayröcker, Wühr, and Lentz. It challenges established literary concepts by proposing that poetical self-referentiality, rather than form, is central to understanding prose, drawing on concepts like Roman Jakobson's linguistic self-reference. This collection provides fundamental considerations for a new foundation of literary studies, suggesting that advanced, non-narrative prose texts should serve as a paradigm for understanding literature. It is an essential read for scholars and students seeking to engage with a fresh perspective on the theory, exegesis, and history of prose.
