摘要：

The article does a contrastive reading of two novels of adultery, Fontane's Effi Briest and Ebner-Eschenbach's Unsuhnbar and asks how a gendered perspective challenges conventions in this very masculine genre. The two examples show how the ground rules are completely changed depending on the perspective taken. The essay argues that the aesthetic evaluation of the texts need to take those changes into account and not continue to reproduce the standard canon as exemplars of aesthetically valuable contributions.
