Literarische Darstellungen von Psychopathen und Dandys im kulturhistorischen Kontext

von Beau Brummell bis Hannibal Lecter

About this book

In der modernen Gesellschaft herrscht eine morbide Faszination fĂŒr psychopathische Figuren wie Thomas Harris' Hannibal Lecter oder Bret Easton Ellis' Patrick Bateman. Psychopathische Dandys mit Stil und Geschmack erheben sich ĂŒber den Rollentypus des affektgesteuerten Mörders, wobei Gewalt als Ă€sthetische Ausdrucksform perfektioniert wird.Wie wurde der literarische Dandy vom zwielichtigen Manipulatant im Stil des historischen Vorbilds George 'Beau' Brummell zum modernen Serienmörder? Die Literaturwissenschaftlerin Laura Bruning vergleicht spĂ€tviktorianische ReprĂ€sentationen des Rollentypus wie Oscar Wildes Dorian Gray und Robert Stevensons Henry Jeckyll mit Dandys des 20. Jahrhunderts wie Brechts Mackie Messer und Burgess' Alex DeLarge, um schlussendlich zu zeigen, dass das Dandytum in der modernen Literatur untrennbar mit dem Psychopathie-Begriff verknĂŒpft ist.
