Literary Studies of contemporary works of literature, in the absence of a canon, are largely directed by order-making umbrella terms. Using the umbrella term ‘new realism’ as an example this study examines (1) its relationship with poetological discourses and discourses of a diagnosis of the present, (2) how the umbrella term’s attractiveness corresponds to its conceptual underdetermination, and (3) which different forms text analytical concepts of ‘new realism’ can take.
