Crime novels or psychological prose? Judith W. Taschler's Sommer wie Winter and Die Deutschlehrerin.
BEYEROVÁ, Václava
The topic of this bachelor thesis is a literary analysis of books Sommer wie Winter and Die Deutschlehrerin written by Judith W. Taschler, the contemporary Austrian author. One of the essential questions, to which the thesis searches for an answer, is the genre classification of the above-mentioned books. It means whether they have basic features and characterization of a criminal novel or if they are considered a psychological prose. Besides the genre classification of the novels and their structural and content analysis, the work brings a comparison in the broader literary-historical context: It finds a certain affinity of the works, which were examined, with the literary movement named Anti-Heimatliteratur. There are some other parallels in development of Austrian literature, e.g. the use of psychoanalysis in the novel Sommer wie Winter or in the novel Malina by Ingeborg Bachmann.
