- Double-weighted statement
- This 216-page monograph straddles several periods in German history: the late Enlightenment; Romanticism; and Modernism. Its corpus includes the works of J. G. Herder, Moses Mendelssohn, Kant, Hegel, and Schleiermacher and it offers close readings of eminent German-speaking authors including Goethe, Heine, and Paul Celan. It covers contemporary theories of secularism drawing on anthropology, philosophy, postcolonial studies, and political science to investigate the secularisation of literary interpretation throughout the tradition of modern hermeneutics.
