- W2319325666 abstract "Since its appearance in 1953, Hermann Broch's Der Versucher1 has received critical attention both as a mythological novel and as a study of political dictatorship and mass-psychology. Schoolfield and other scholars have shown the relationship of the novel to the Demeter myth and have also drawn close parallels between the action of Der Versucher and current political events in Germany, particularly Hitler's rise to power, Nazi upheavals in Styria, and local Austrian history.2 There is no question of the validity both of the mythological and the political or mass-psychological interpretations of Der Versucher, but for the most part the very significant connection between the novel and its author's attitude toward positivism has been neglected.3 Doubtless this is largely due to the fact that such a connection is not immediately apparent unless one examine the novel in the light of Broch's early essays and literary reviews written prior to the inception of Der Versucher in 1934. These critical and theoretical writings have only recently become readily accessible4 and, together with the essays written during Broch's sojourn in the United States (from 1938 until his death in 1951), they offer many valuable clues to the interpretation of Der Versucher. The early essays are unified in outlook, if not in style, and all reveal the anti-positivistic Weltanschauung of their author. Comparison of their content with the underlying philosophical and ethical themes of the novel indicates that Der Versucher is in large part a fictional illustration and re-formulation of Broch's message in the essays. On the one hand, the descriptive passages of the novel reveal Broch's" @default.
