Writing a Bachelor’s or Master’s thesis means changing the direction of light shed on a particular text or topic, as the theses collected in this volume conclusively show: A dystopian novel is shown to hinge on questions of animal rights; a complex novelistic structure is revealed to have its origins in scientific discourses; a clearly Gothic novel has its foundation in aesthetic Christianity, to outline just some of the topics. All these papers have in common that they take a well-known text or idea and change the angle through which it is read and analysed – and suddenly a rainbow of new insights is created.368enCC BY-SA 4.0http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/deed.debook_editor978-3-86395-535-9urn:nbn:de:gbv:7-isbn-978-3-86395-535-9-5https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?univerlag-isbn-978-3-86395-535-9
