De Cervantes al Händler der vier Jahreszeiten de Fassbinder: apuntes desde la sociología

Abstract

The most recent contributions of sociology that seek to qualify, classify and systematize concepts and categories in the development of the 'Western world', especially since the Modern Age, have contributed decisively to illuminating artistic creation. This becomes even more evident in the case of literature, which does not refuse -neither voluntarily, nor by necessity-, to interact directly with the 'real world'. These contributions allow more extensive readings of the relevant works, and thus, allow one to relate works and authors, which are distant in time, and to trace lines of continuity which follow the storyline of inconclusive discussions, particularly with regard to the relationship between individuals and society.
