Synopsis: Erstmals liegt mit Schaltstelle eine umfassende Studie zur zeitgenossischen deutschsprachigen Lyrik auf der Schwelle zum 21. Jahrhundert vor. In einem breiten Spektrum an Beitragen international renommierter Experten aus Deutschland, Grossbritannien, den USA, Kanada, Italien und den Niederlanden prasentiert diese Untersuchung ausfuhrliche Analysen zu bekannten Grossen (wie Volker Braun, Ulrike Draesner, Durs Grunbein, Ernst Jandl, Barbara Kohler, Friederike Mayrocker, Brigitte Oleschinski und Raoul Schrott), eingehende Betrachtungen zur Lyrik des Korpers, zur Verwendung von Klischee-Bildern, zum Topos der Kindheit oder zur `neuen Schlichtheit', sowie Beitrage zur jungsten Generation von Dichterinnen und Dichtern, die im neuen Jahrhundert ihren Einstand gegeben haben. Untersuchungen zu individuellen Gedichtsammlungen erganzen sich mit Abhandlungen, die Dialoge uber die Jahrhundertgrenzen hinweg aufzeigen oder den Einfluss von Schlusselfiguren wie Paul Celan und Gottfried Benn nachweisen. Zudem enthalt der Band ein Interview mit Heinz Czechowski und neue Gedichte von acht fuhrenden deutschsprachigen Lyrikerinnen und Lyrikern. Zu oft wird in Diskussionen zur Literatur in der Berliner Republik die Lyrik marginalisiert: dieser Band zeigt, dass sie im Gegenteil eine unerlassliche Rolle zu spielen hat. Fur Wissenschaftler und Studierende der Germanistik, wie uberhaupt fur alle, die an den Entwicklungen auf dem Gebiet der modernen Lyrik interessiert sind, sollte diese Veroffentlichung zur Pflichtlekture erhoben werden.Schaltstelle presents a pioneering examination of contemporary German poetry at the turn of the twenty-first century. Internationally recognised experts from Germany, UK, USA, Canada, Italy and the Netherlands offer a first assessment of the paths that German poetry has taken into the new millennium. Alongside in-depth analyses of established names are broader surveys of poetry of the body, the use of cliche, theories of metaphor, the topos of childhood, the `new simplicity', and contributions dedicated to the youngest generation of poets making their debut in the new century. The volume also contains an interview with Heinz Czechowski, a substantial Bibliography and new poems by eight leading poets. Poetry is too often marginalised in discussions about literature in the Berlin Republic: this volume demonstrates that it has a vital role to play at their heart.
