This article focuses primarily on three areas: First the article deals with Alfred Döblin's concept of the novel and the function of the montage technique from his perspective. Secondly, the article draws attention to the fact that Alfred Döblin, a neurologist by profession, who later dedicated himself exclusively to his writing, used the montage technique intensively in his great city novel Berlin Alexanderplatz. The technique, which operates at different levels of language, narrative technique and plot, is demonstrated by selected examples from the novel. In each case the intention of the novelist is discussed. The article considers whether individual accumulating elements accord with the wholeness of the novel, and if so, how this interesting synthesis occurs. The final focus is on his efforts to use the montage technique to portray the big city. In the case of Berlin Alexanderplatz, this effort ultimately ends with a big city epic. In this study, we consider how Döblin used the montage technique in Berlin Alexanderplatz, which was central, and new for German literature at that time. Additionally, narrative styles and techniques as parables, paraboles, sound associations, word and rhyme repetition and relevant passages are supported by quotations from the novel.
Else LaskerSchüler (1869-1945), among the significant expressionist woman writers, did not only suffer from being both a woman and author, but also had to struggle under difficulties of being a hebrew. In this paper, especially the letter novel titled "Der Malik : Eine Kaisergeschichte" has been handled in the light of Homi K. Bhabha's 'Third Space Theory'. In regard to this, the "Third Space", which is defined by postcolonial theoretician Homi K. Bhabha as an extra place where minorities and outcast groups can express themselves in his work "The Location of Culture", is adapted to the literary "Orient" and defined once again in Else Lasker-Schüler's novel as it was never approached and interpreted before. In this sense, this supports the relevance to analyze her mentioned works in terms of the "Third Space Theory". Else Lasker-Schüler constructed a new world for herself through literature; her works were her life and her life was her works.
Black Humor, Brimstone Grotesque and A Terrifying Scenery in the work of Thomas Bernhard named "The Painter". Thomas Bernhard (1931-1989) is one of the most important writers of the Austrian postwar literature. All of his works reflect the characteristics of that period. "Bernhardesque" literature (just as the "Kafkaesque") always shapes the language and brings it out forcing the maximum limits of the semantics and stylistics expression facilities of the language. Bernhard generally figures out the inner world of the modern people psychologically disturbed and represents their wholly technological, noncommunicative and hostile environment in his works, especially features ironic, absurd, and grotesque and a little bit comic elements. Thomas Bernhard, a worldwide famous writer, poet and playwright, wrote a prose novel entitled "Ereignisse" (Events) that includes thirty-one extraordinary stories in 1957. These are the stories can be read both independently from each other and also in coherence. This study is aimed to analyses one of these works, the twelfth one in the light of eclectical way, mostly involves 'black humor' which is named "Der Anstreicher" (The Painter). The term Black Humor is generally defined for the works characterized by a desperate, sardonic humor intended to induce laughter as the appropriate response to the apparent meaninglessness and absurdity of existence. This short story of Bernhard tells about an "Event" derived its theme from the daily life and can be thought as a simple work accident but it brings a death to his main character. Narrator narrates this fatal and ordinary event with a horrific, grotesque and agonizing absurdity and as we try to figure out in this study; The Painter includes 'Black Humor' in this context.
