OverviewThe literature of the 19th century is full of fabrics: curtains, upholstery and carpets with their colors, patterns and structures shape the descriptions of literary interiors. What does it mean for the traditional connections between text and textile when the literature deals with specific materials? How does the literary handling of the material change when it is no longer naturally linked to the sphere of the handmade and homemade? In exemplary analyzes of texts by Annette von Droste-Hülshoff, Adalbert Stifter, Gottfried Keller and others, Kira Jürjens examines how stories are told with material. The book shows how the literature explores the conditions and possibilities of representation with furnishing textiles: as a filter of light and air, as a shiny intact surface, as an object of economic or personal value, but also as threadbare shreds and carriers of traces and damage.
