Artists of every kind have been a fixed presence in international literature since the artist novel emerged in Germany at the end of the eighteenth century. This German-language study asks which image of the artist dominates in present-day English novels, and how far it differs from the images of earlier eras.
The author works through a selection of contemporary English novels in detail. The subtitle places the focus on the problem of artistry and mediocrity, with Iris Murdoch's fiction as a case study.
