Methodenskizze zur systematischen Rekonstruktion der literarischen Satire

Abstract This outline serves as basic analysis of the methods used to systematically reconstruct literary satire in the extant literary scholarship. The first section of the outline (1) contains a brief general introduction to the discussion of satire in the field of poetics. In the second section (2), which is the main concern of this outline, I discuss the four main methods used to reconstruct the concept of literary satire in recent decades.
