Peter Handke gilt als einer der bekanntesten modernen österreichischen Schriftsteller.Obwohl sehr umstritten, bekam er 2019 den Literaturnobelpreis. Zeuge seiner Stilkunst istdie Erzählung Wunschloses Unglück. Schon im Titel spürt man einen grundlegendenWiderspruch in der Mutter-Sohn-Beziehung. Dazu sagt Mauser, dass WunschlosesUnglück eine biographische Erzählung darstellt, wo der Verfasser, Peter Handke, seineeigenen Erinnerungen ebenso realistisch wie individuell wiedergibt: zentraler Punkt ist,dass Handkes Mutter im Alter von 51 Jahren Selbstmord begeht. Der Autor Peter Handketrägt aus seiner Erinnerung zusammen, was er über seine Mutter ausfindig machen kann.Es entsteht das Bild einer Frau, die aus einer Welt sozialer Unterdrückung kommt underste Schritte zur Selbstverwirklichung macht, im Ganzen aber erfolglos. Sie löst sichzunächst aus dem engen, ländlich-bäuerlichen Dasein, ohne freilich in ein andereshineinwachsen zu können”1.Kern des Buchs ist die Beziehung zwischen Handke und der Mutter Maria. Besondersinteressant ist die Tatsache, dass sich die Figur der Mutter als dreifach gebrochen zeigt.Anders gesagt schildert der Verfasser die Entwicklung der Mutter in drei Phasen: dasMädchen, die Ehefrau und die Hausfrau. Das sind möglicherweise die Schlüsselfaktoren,die Maria Handke zum Selbstmord getrieben haben.

Background: It is unclear whether antidepressants can prevent suicides or suicide attempts, particularly during longterm use. Methods: We carried out a comprehensive review of long-term studies of antidepressants (relapse prevention). Sources were obtained from 5 review articles and by searches of MEDLINE, PubMed Central and a hand search of bibliographies. We meta-analyzed placebo-controlled antidepressant RCTs of at least 3 months’ duration and calculated suicide and suicide attempt incidence rates, incidence rate ratios and Peto odds ratios (ORs). Results: Out of 807 studies screened 29 were included, covering 6,934 patients (5,529 patient-years). In total, 1.45 suicides and 2.76 suicide attempts per 1,000 patient-years were reported. Seven out of 8 suicides and 13 out of 14 suicide attempts occurred in antidepressant arms, resulting in incidence rate ratios of 5.03 (0.78–114.1; p = 0.102) for suicides and of 9.02 (1.58–193.6; p = 0.007) for suicide attempts. Peto ORs were 2.6 (0.6–11.2; nonsignificant) and 3.4 (1.1–11.0; p = 0.04), respectively. Dropouts due to unknown reasons were similar in the antidepressant and placebo arms (9.6 vs. 9.9%). The majority of suicides and suicide attempts originated from 1 study, accounting for a fifth of all patient-years in this meta-analysis. Leaving out this study resulted in a nonsignificant incidence rate ratio for suicide attempts of 3.83 (0.53–91.01). Conclusions: Therapists should be aware of the lack of proof from RCTs that antidepressants prevent suicides and suicide attempts. We cannot conclude with certainty whether antidepressants increase the risk for suicide or suicide attempts. Researchers must report all suicides and suicide attempts in RCTs.

Background: Cconsiderable proportion of the population experiences major life disruptions after losing a loved one to suicide. Social stigma attached to suicide survivors adds to complications occurring in the course of suicide bereavement. Despite its known risks, stigma related to suicide survivors has been sparsely investigated. Methods: We conducted a systematic literature search in PubMed, Web of Science, PsycInfo and PsyArticles, of studies indexed up through August 2015. Articles were eligible for inclusion if they addressed experiences of stigma in suicide survivors, compared them to other bereavement populations, or investigated stigmatizing attitudes within the public. The search was restricted to English-language studies. Results: 25 records matched inclusion criteria. Study designs were heterogeneous, making comparisons difficult. Results demonstrated that suicide survivors experience stigma in the form of shame, blame, and avoidance. Suicide survivors showed higher levels of stigma than natural death survivors. Stigma was linked to concealment of the death, social withdrawal, reduced psychological and somatic functioning, and grief difficulties. Only one study investigated stigmatizing attitudes towards suicide survivors among the general population. Limitations: Internal and external validity of the studies was restricted by a lack of valid measures and selection bias. Conclusions: More methodologically sound research is needed to understand the impact of stigma on suicide survivors\'' grief trajectories and to separate it from other grief aspects. Clinicians and grief-counselors as well as the public should be educated about the persistent stigma experienced by suicide survivors.

Der Ausgang des Romans Die Leiden des Jungen Werther (1774, von Johann Wolfgang von Goethe) wird beim ersten Anblick oft als tragische Folge einer unglücklichen und unerwiderten Liebe zu Lotte angesehen. In dieser vorliegenden Arbeit wird der weit erforschten Frage der Unvermeidbarkeit des Suizids im Werk eine alternative Deutung geliefert. Diese ist außerhalb des Romans angesiedelt, und zeigt, dass der Suizid schon in der Epoche angelegt ist.
