  • Analytical descriptions of literature are often based on the general presupposition according to which literature is mostly constituted as prose, giving privilege to the book as its form. This very premise is also definitive for Caroline Amlinger’s seminal study titled Schreiben. Eine Soziologie literarischer Arbeit (2021). This article aims at examining how this restriction can amount to crucially marginalising and reducing literature’s diversity. Amlinger’s praxeological account leads to emphasizing the processual character of text production; it is also able to elaborate on how the dynamics of the economic business have an impact on the literary result. However, the practices and forms of, particularly, German speaking contemporary theatre literature as well as the radio play indicate that a less restrictive definition of literature is required in order to consider the diverse conditions of literature’s appearance in different genres in a fertile manner.
