{"product_id":"constructing-authorship-in-the-work-rebecca-braun-9780199542703","title":"Constructing Authorship in the Work of Günter Grass","description":"This book traces a longstanding concern with issues of authorship throughout the work of Gunter Grass, Germany's best-known contemporary writer and public intellectual. Through detailed close-readings of all of his major literary works from 1970 onwards and careful analysis of his political writings from 1965 to 2005, it argues that Grass's tendency to insert clearly recognisable self-images into his literary texts represents a coherent and calculated reaction to his constant exposure in the media-led public sphere. It underlines the degree of play which has characterised Grass's relationship to this sphere and himself as part of it and explains how a concern with the very concept of authorship has conditioned the way his work as a whole has developed on both thematic and structural levels.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Rebecca Braun\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0199542708\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780199542703\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/15\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 210\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.83lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.70w x 0.80d","brand":"Rebecca Braun","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47419023786239,"sku":"9780199542703","price":135.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b73f6110-bd4e-45ac-9579-f5e343db75b0.jpg?v=1761508977","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/constructing-authorship-in-the-work-rebecca-braun-9780199542703","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
