ISBN: 9783030919061 / Angielski / Miękka / 411 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Der Band nimmt das titelgebende Tocotronic-Zitat zum heuristischen Ausgangspunkt, um das Verhältnis von Kunst und Wirklichkeit und damit den Entwurf von ‚Realität‘ insgesamt in deutschsprachigen Popschreibweisen seit 2000 zu untersuchen. Während das literarische Feld sich in der Folge von 9/11 etwa tendenziell zu einem „Relevanten Realismus“ bekannte, wandte sich die Hamburger Schule in den frühen 2000er Jahren eher einer ästhetizistischen Hochkunstphase zu. Seit den 2010er Jahren lässt sich wiederum eine neue Welle ‚relevant realistischer‘, politisch-engagierter Popsongs...
