On Eginald Schlattner’s Novel Drachenköpfe/Dragon Heads (2021) – A Literary Replica of Iris Wolff’s Story Drachenhaus/Dragon House. The author of the article examines the story and the discourse of Eginald Schlattner’s 2021 novel Drachenköpfe and identifies some novelties in the context of his life’s work: Schlattner’s new novel focuses on the 1960s and sets out thematically where his trilogy published by Zsolnay Verlag 1998-2005 ended historically. In Drachenköpfe, the Transylvanian-German writer continues or even develops upon the compositional technique that he mainly appropriates starting with his monumental Wasserzeichen/Watermarks, published in 2018. Thus, Drachenköpfe is regarded both as a literary text and as an artistic reflection, and by the metaphor of disease it certainly does justice to its turbulent world-historical period of publication.

Keywords: the 1960s, Romania, literary text and art reflection, metaphor of disease
