Description
Fritz Mauthner (1849-1923), famed for his parodies in the Berlin of the Gründerzeit, is best known today for his huge »Contributions to a Critique of Language« (1901/02). In addition, he wrote various novels, worked for many years as a journalist and drama reviewer and finally retired to Meersburg on Lake Constance to devote his final years to the philosophy of language. On the occasion of the 150th anniversary of his birth in 1999, a commemorative ceremony, a staged reading and a symposium were organized in Brunswick. The volume contains the texts by Mauthner performed at the reading, the papers presented at the event and a cross-section of the discussion following the papers.
