The basic premise of this work is that an indepth study of one very representative author and three almost ubiquitous literary themes can very profitably complement those books on PostWar German Literature which are given the vast breadth of the topic by necessity almost entirely encyclopaedic in format. The intent of the study then, is fourfold: to introduce the writer Paul Schallck and his major works, to isolate several of his major themes and attempt locating these diachronically, and then synchronically, shedding light in the process on several important topics in PostWar German writing: providing, as it were, a kind of casestudy introduction to German Literature since 1945. Hence the three themes that comprise Chapters 3, 4 and 5 were chosen for discussion on the basis of their importance for the novels of Paul Schallck, on the basis of their importance to previous literary movements and finally, on the basis of their frequent occurrence in and significance to other contemporary works by Grass, Bll, et al.

I recently read 'The Postwar German Don Quixote' by Paul Schallck, and it was quite enlightening. The way it dives into the literature of the Federal Republic is unique, making it a solid addition to my bookshelf. I’d recommend it to anyone interested in German literature or history.

A dense but rewarding read
This book by Paul Schallck is definitely not for everyone. It took me a while to get through it, but I found the insights into the postwar German literature fascinating. The prolegomenon sets the stage really well and makes you think deeply about the context. Worth the effort if you enjoy literary analysis.

Not what I expected
I grabbed this book thinking it would be a lighter read. While Paul Schallck has some fascinating thoughts, it felt a bit dense at times. The case history aspect was interesting, but I struggled with parts of the text. It’s a thoughtful piece, just not my cup of tea.
