In this chapter of the German-language version of her virtual exhibition, “Mensch und Natur in der deutschen Literatur (Human-Nature Relations in German Literature),” Sabine Wilke examines mountains and glacial environments in German-language literary descriptions.

Modernism focuses on the more often destructive results of human-nature entanglements. For the English-language version of this exhibition, click here.
