Abstract

This article examines sociability as a literary and poetic factor which reacts to real-world manifestations of social interaction. Using the pastoral text Des Hylas auß Latusia Lustiger Schau-Platz von einer Pindischen Gesellschaft (1650) as an example, the article develops how the specifically ‘bourgeois’ quality of the text may be redefined under the auspices of a particularly ‘literary sociability’ against the background of a critical revision of common genre assignments. This kind of ‘literary sociability’ results mainly from the narrative structure of the text and the skillful play between fictional and factual signals. In this way, the article also contributes to shedding light on the practice of fiction(ality) in the early modern period.
