Fourth volume of the Edition AVL published by BerlinUP Books: “Literatur & Exzess”
Literatur und Exzess
What happens when literature crosses boundaries and ventures into excess? The forth edited volume of Edition AVL brings together twelve contributions from the 14. Studierendenkongress der Komparatistik (Freie Universität Berlin, Mai 2024), exploring excess in its aesthetic, theoretical, and social dimensions.

Edited by Amelie Bergfeld, Lisa Damm, Amelie Dietrich, Anton Fery, Annika Gebhard, Julia König, Tobias Krüger, and Lukas Siebeneicker, the contributions examine how excess operates within the tension between norm and transgression, shapes processes of meaning-making, and opens up new spaces for reflection.
“Literatur & Exzess” is available as an open access publication via the BerlinUP webshop and via the DepositOnce repository (https://doi.org/10.14279/depositonce-25926). A printed edition is also available via the webshop.
