| | Berlin: Temporal Topographies |
 | | Bourgeois realism, the psychological novel, impressionism and aestheticism, finally even his own expressionist position and futurism—nothing is secure from his reformatory zeal, directed towards the creation of an exemplary modern literature. |
 | | Realism and modernism are either conceived as binary categories, or it is argued that modernist literary techniques achieve effects of "realist" consciousness, which is to say that they choose to represent a hitherto neglected form of experience or reality that made no part of traditional, nineteenth-century realism. |
 | | Moreover, Döblin has repeatedly characterized his conception of the novel as a new form of epic, a form, in other words, that is generally associated with the representation of a totality, an integration between individual and collectivity. |
