Umschlag leicht berieben und papierbedingt leicht gebräunt. - Committed to the idea that "literary theory as a philosophic discipline deserves continuing re-evaluation," Dr. Salm examines the writings of three major theorists who represent important shifts in critical thinking from the early 1870's to the present. The men discussed are Wilhelm Scherer, Oskar Walzel, and Emil Staiger. Scherer (1841-1886), an Austrian by birth, founded the influential Schererschule of criticism -a school that maintained a body of adherents well into the 1920's. Walzel (1864-1944), an early formalist, was also born in Austria. Both men held high teaching posts at German universities. Emil Staiger, born in Switzerland in 1908, is a leading contemporary critic and theorist, who applies existential principles to poetics. He is a distinguished professor of German literature at the University of Zurich. The national milieux in which these men have worked, however, and the fact that their language is German are considered of secondary importance : the emphasis is rather on their contributions to a general international literary theory. Scherer, strongly influenced by Auguste Comte, tried to establish a direct relationship between imaginative writing and general sociologi- cal and historical laws by using the inductive methods of the natural sciences. In opposition to the Positivist school, Walzel sought to give poetics an autonomy of its own, to free it from domination by non-aesthetic disciplines - and, further, to illuminate literature by means of a structural vocabulary borrowed from the visual arts. Emil Staiger, departing from traditional systems and applying Heideggerean principles to literature, defines literary expression as a mode of being and the three basic genres - lyric, epic, and dramatic - as in fact the three possible modes of human existence. He aims at a poetics that will be "a contribution to philosophic anthropology." The author not only explores but evaluates the three theories (each of which is being practiced, wholly or in part, today) from the point of view of a modern aesthetic sensibility.
