Sinopsis:

Críticas: - George Steiner, "Times Literary Supplement" " Mayer means to know exactly how bourgeois society increasingly took away the rights of women, homosexuals, Jews, how these people deprived of rights reacted to the provocation: with camouflage, self-hate, antitype, transmutation, tragic protest." - Peter Demetz, "Der Spiegel" " Hans Mayer is not only a literary critic of omnivorous energy, but an individual with an alert social conscience. He has, over the past several years, been producing essays and articles on those categories of human beings whom established society and classic literature have represented as outcasts, marginal men and subversives. In "Outsiders" he has arrayed these separate writings and reflections in a rather breathless survey ... lively and humane." - George Steiner, "Times Literary Supplement" & quot; Mayer means to know exactly how bourgeois society increasingly took away the rights of women, homosexuals, Jews, how these people deprived of rights reacted to the provocation: with camouflage, self-hate, antitype, transmutation, tragic protest.& quot; - Peter Demetz, Der Spiegel & quot; Hans Mayer is not only a literary critic of omnivorous energy, but an individual with an alert social conscience.
