Wolfsmänner

From Ovid to Freud, from Canetti to Deleuze/Guattari - Achim Geisenhanslüke has studied the characters of wolf men, which have been passed on since ancient times, and develops a theoretical history of these legendary hybrids. His analysis is complemented by constant reference to literary texts, such as by Schiller, Goethe, Stifter, Storm, Canetti, Hesse, London, and Kipling as well as film traditions. This book is of interest to students and experts of literary studies as well as to readers in fields of media and film studies and the general public.
