RT Journal Article SR Electronic T1 Experimental Fiction or Classical Story-Telling? Alexander Kluge’s Multi-Media Authorship JF Monatshefte FD University of Wisconsin Press SP 364 OP 386 DO 10.3368/m.110.3.364 VO 110 IS 3 A1 Uecker, Matthias YR 2018 UL http://mon.uwpress.org/content/110/3/364.abstract AB Alexander Kluge has created a huge oeuvre concerned with history and story-telling. His books combine short narrative forms into large constructions in which the different parts all complement each other and create a seemingly never-ending series of connections which endeavour to create a portrayal of the world—past, present, and future—both as it is and as humans imagine and wish it to be. Kluge’s story-telling challenges the established distinctions between genres and media as well as the distinction between fact and fiction. It also challenges established modes of publication and reception. While the organisation of Kluge’s books can be described as experimental, they make use of long-established forms of story-telling. This article will investigate the relationship between classical forms and experimental challenges in Kluge’s work. (MU)
