The Consciousness of time in modern industrial societies is regulated by the calendar and the clock and is mainly organised in accordance to the structure of our labour vocabulary: Achtstundentag, Fünftagewoche, Lebensarbeitszeit etc. Besides other time systems play weighty roles, according to dates...

The Consciousness of time in modern industrial societies is regulated by the calendar and the clock and is mainly organised in accordance to the structure of our labour vocabulary: Achtstundentag, Fünftagewoche, Lebensarbeitszeit etc. Besides other time systems play weighty roles, according to dates of events important for certain generations, collectives or each individual. Finally we experience the flow of time differently corresponding to the situation at a given time. Dieter Lohr illuminates the historical depths of all these interfering time nettings. By investigating the temporal structures of German narrative prose of various epochs of the last thousand years he reconstructs remote historical forms of the consciousness of time. Under temporal aspects he taps the Icelandic 'Laxd la Saga', Wolfram's von Eschenbach 'Parzival', Hans Jacob Christoph von Grimmelshausen's 'Simplicissimus Teutsch', Johann Wolfgang Goethe's 'Wilhelm Meisters Lehrjahre', Theodor Fontane's 'Effi Briest' und Heinrich Boell's 'Billard um halb zehn'.
