The book examines the literary genre of the cyclical framework story, which can be found in literature of the Orient (Arabian Nights) and to a great extent in German Romantic literature (e.g. Goethe, Brentano, Hauff), in serialized novels, as well as in movie sequels, and radio and television series. In individual analyses of literary texts and television series, the astonishing continuity of the motif of social narrative against death is evidenced.
