- Title
Heinrich Böll and the Katharina Blum debate.
- Authors
Williams, Rhys W.
- Abstract
The article critiques the novel "The Lost Honour of Katharina Blum," by Heinrich Boll, focusing on its reception when it was first released in West Germany in 1974. Topics addressed include Boll's involvement in the debate surrounding the Baader-Meinhof terrorist group, argument that Boll does not exonerate violence in his text, and Boll's view that the 'Bild-Zeitung' reporting of terrorism was misleading and unjustified.
