Juliane Witzke analyzes contemporary paratextual strategies of staging as exemplified in the works of Judith Hermann (between 1998 and 2014). Her monography not only fills a research gap concerning the academic recognition of this female author, but also enhances the methodological discourse within literary studies, as her tools of analysis are widely applicable. Another strong point of her analysis is how she takes into account changes of media (e.g. readers as critics). Her frequent reference to gender aspects – in particular when she interprets Hermann's changed strategy as a successful staging of 'naturalness' – would in places have needed a more profound gender-theoretical reflection.
