Kollektivpoetik

About this book
Following a trajectory that begins with Goethe and extends through Emerson, Whitman, and Mann, this study reconstructs a neglected facet of modernity: the effort to create a “collective poetics.” The work examines both aspects of literary form and ways of thinking about society and politics. The collective poetics of “E pluribus unum” represents the literary manifestation of the guiding principle of the US and of liberal democracy in general.

Reviews
"More than once I found myself thinking that the backbone of the book would make a superb syllabus for a seminar introducing students to the incredible richness of thoughtful reading. The catholicity, the eclecticism of approach, and the openness are truly admirable." Jane K. Brown (Univ. of Washington, Seattle, USA) in: Arbitrium Bd. 39.1 (2021).
"Sinas Studie lässt sich (...) als ein Plädoyer für eine komparatistisch aufgeschlossene Literaturwissenschaft und als ein eindrückliches Aufzeigen des heuristischen Potentials eines solchen Ansatzes lesen." Tim Sommer (Heidelberg) in: PhiN. Bd. 90 (2020).
"[Sinas] hochintelligentes Werk (...) [hat] unser kritisches Arsenal mit einem bedeutenden neuen Werkzeug bereichert." Theodore Ziolkowski (Princeton) in: Goethe-Jahrbuch Bd. 137 (2020).
