The work presents an overview and analysis of German literature during a significant transitional period that encompasses the emergence of various literary movements. Thomas critiques the existing literature histories for neglecting contemporary authors and aims to fill this gap by documenting the literary landscape of his time. The opening of the text lays out the author's intent and framework for discussing the last two decades of German literature. Thomas argues that previous literary histories have inadequately addressed modern literature, often halting their narratives before reaching contemporary works. He emphasizes the difficulties inherent in evaluating literature during a period of ongoing change and movement, suggesting that assessments made today may evolve as future perspectives emerge. Through this introduction, Thomas sets the tone for a comprehensive exploration of significant writers and currents impacting German literature from 1880 to 1900, challenging readers to reconsider their understanding of literary history.
