In recent years there has been a new surge of interest in German Romanticism, and particularly in its leading theorists. This interest has taken the form of studies from many different perspectives, including the deconstructive, the feminist, and that in the tradition of the Frankfurt School. This dissertation attempts to draw what is valuable from each of these approaches for an analysis of the significance of women and the female sphere in Novalis's life and work. The emphasis in on his novel, Heinrich von Ofterdingen, as the centerpiece of a large and sometimes diffuse body of theoretical and poetic speculation.

520 $a In recent years there has been a new surge of interest in German Romanticism, and particularly in its leading theorists. This interest has taken the form of studies from many different perspectives, including the deconstructive, the feminist, and that in the tradition of the Frankfurt School. This dissertation attempts to draw what is valuable from each of these approaches for an analysis of the significance of women and the female sphere in Novalis's life and work. The emphasis in on his novel, Heinrich von Ofterdingen, as the centerpiece of a large and sometimes diffuse body of theoretical and poetic speculation.
520 $a The dissertation has two main parts, one an overview of general sociohistorical and philosophical considerations, the other a close analysis of Heinrich von Ofterdingen. In the first section, Novalis's idealization of the family as a refuge and a model in an increasingly alienating political and economic environment is analyzed in terms of its connection to previous notions of marriage and family, and in terms of Novalis's own relationships to various family units.
520 $a The analysis of Heinrich von Ofterdingen centers around women as they relate to the male poet. Women are primarily associated with the two related, but often antagonistic tendencies that inform Novalis's work: dissolution, often erotically imagined as an expansion of the male self, and limitation or concentration, often associated with marriage as a source of security and grounding for the man's diffusive energies. While the eroticism of Heinrich's dream and his choice to journey away from the patriarchal sphere to his mother's homeland represents a break from conventional patterns of male development, the women he encounters are instrumental in their function as muses and inspirations, and none of the women themselves develop.
520 $a Klingsohr's Marchen represents a step toward revolutionary poesy, with its deconstruction of linear narration and its dream-like treatment of time and space. Here, the female characters, a trinity of females, become agents of redemption, rather than merely helpmates to the male savior. In the end, however, the women (with the exception of Fabel) are reduced to symbolic status (the mother) or domesticated (Ginnistan) after all.
