Sumario: | Wolfgang Hildesheimer is the son of Jewish parents, is a well-known German writer not only in German literature but also in world literature. He has written many novels, stories and draman with his Jewish identity. He is in the confrontation with his past in his works. His restless life in Germany and the relationship between his past and his attitude to life shape his works. The language or forms of expression of his work are always in the foreground. Hildesheimer always uses narrative stylistic devices such as humor, satire and irony in his works. In this short story also 'The End of a World' falls on the satire. A sinking of a building on the artificial island symbolizes the demise of humanity and the value system in the short story. Hildesheimer criticizes here the illusory world of humanity. |
