In Praise of Antiheroes: Figures and Themes in Modern European Literature, 1830-1980
Victor Brombert
Through critical readings of key works of modern European literature, Victor Brombert shows how a new kind of hero - the antihero - has arisen to replace the toppled heroic model. The works of Buchner, Gogol, Dostoevsky, Flaubert, Svevo, Hasek, Frisch, Camus and Levi are examined.
