Schrift und Geld um 1900: Italo Svevos Medien in Bloomington, MN

Italo Svevo's novels famously centre on questions of mediality: How and why does writing make sense? How and why does money have value? While Svevo's novels are turned into prisms, used to open up an unknown view on the time around 1900, this study also shows that their questions on mediality are as new and unsolved as ever.
