Cultures of Genre aims at a comprehensive, systematic and historical re-evaluation of the category of literary genre in German literature 1750-1950.

Goethe, Jacob Grimm, Karoline v. Günderrode, Bettine v. Arnim, Adalbert Stifter, Georg Lukács, Walter Benjamin, Hugo v. Hofmannsthal and Bertolt Brecht.
