Details

In an era marked by global crises, political polarization, and contested truths, literature has re-emerged as a vital space for ethical reflection and legal imagination. This interdisciplinary volume explores how contemporary political authors engage with pressing societal issues-ranging from political power, democracy, dictatorship, colonization, sexual freedom, artificial intelligence to historical memory-while navigating the boundaries of artistic freedom and public responsibility.

Bringing together scholars from law, literature, philosophy, and sociology, the book examines the triangular relationship between author, text, and reception. It investigates how fiction can function as a site of dissent, normativity, and legal discourse, and how authors negotiate their roles as public intellectuals in a media-saturated world.

With case studies on writers such as Juli Zeh, Robert Menasse, Shida Bazyar, Kazuo Ishiguro, Michel Houllebecq, Gunther Grass, Dave Egger, Svetlana Alexievich, Boualem Sansal, Jean-Philippe Pleau, and others, this volume offers a timely and critical contribution to debates on freedom of expression, the ethics of authorship, and the political power of literature.
