    Puppen in Johann Wolfgang Goethes »Wilhelm Meister«-Komplex und Thomas Manns »Buddenbrooks« im Spannungsverhältnis zwischen Bürger- und Künstlertum
    (universi - Universitätsverlag Siegen, 2021)
    Puppet theater represents a widespread, though little researched motif in the ‘Bildungsroman’ with regard to its function within the diegesis. According to the reading of this paper, however, puppet theater is ascribed a determinant effect within the diegesis, and its sense-making character is examined more closely. To this end, questions are asked about the introduction of the doll and puppet theater motif in the novel, about parallels between the exemplary works, about reciprocal relationships - also to the life of the respective authors, Johann Wolfgang Goethe and Thomas Mann - as well as about the nature of the dolls/puppets and their metaphorical significance for the context of the novel.
