- This book is the product of extensive research into representations of bodily metamorphosis in literature, as well as into the field of affect studies. It advances an original framework for approaching literary texts through the lens of affect, and offers analysis of German-language literary texts from across two centuries, as well as offering a wider perspective on the relationship between affective styles in literary texts and changing understandings of emotion, bodies, humanity and identity. The range of the material, and the breadth of the theoretical work required, underlies the case for double-weighting.
