    This book explores how capitalism shapes the formation of the economic subject in modern European writing. How are subject positions determined by the subject’s relationship to money and work? How fair is a society that predicates social inclusion upon employment? And what happens when full employment is impossible? The volume traces how literary authors and social theorists have answered these questions in different social and historical contexts from the nineteenth century to the present day. The contributions confront the imperatives of productivity, notions of success and failure, the construction of work cultures and environments, the (in)visibility of certain labour groups, and the implications of the body as a productive site.

    Aus den Acknowledgements: "The contributions in this volume grew out of papers that were given at two separate events in 2018. The first such event was a workshop at King’s College London organised in cooperation with the Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin entitled ‘Cultures of Work’. The second event was the trilateral colloquium between the University of Cambridge, the University of Chicago, and the Friedrich Schlegel Graduate School for Literary Studies of the Free University Berlin, on the topic of ‘Economic Subjects in Modern German and Comparative Culture’. The colloquium was held at Jesus College, University of Cambridge [...].!
