The historical development of German socially critical 'Jugendliteratur' is outlined, in order to put the work of Pausewang, one of its leading contemporary exponents, into context. A review of her life and the reception of her literary work precede the analysis of her work against its social, political and literary background. The theme of utopia and the relationship between language and ideology form the framework for the evaluation of Pausewang's work, focussing on two main thematic areas, firstly Latin America, poverty and 'Alterität', secondly war, peace and the environment. A correlation is evident between the use of dystopian images, as in Die Wolke, and the degree to which narrative techniques can be seen as interrogative.
This doctoral thesis was guided by Professor Moray McGowan at the University of Sheffield. The author is Senior Lecturer in German at Sheffield Hallam University.
