dc.description.abstract |
This thesis problematizes conceptions of a dialectic utopia and
revolutionary literature by looking at two German authors of the 20th century:
Ernst Bloch and Bertolt Brecht I compare and contrast Bloch's and Brecht's
theories of utopia and assess how each author attempts to create social change
through their work. Common literary research suggests that Bloch and Brecht
construct opposing strategies of social change through literature, but in my
analysis of each author, I explain how their work compliments the other and
resolutely come to agreeing theoretical outcomes. |
