Künstlerroman
A ''Künstlerroman'' (; plural ''-ane''), meaning "artist's novel" in English, is a narrative about an artist's growth to maturity.Werlock, James P. (2010The Facts on File companion to the American short story Volume 2, p.387 It could be classified as a sub-category of ''Bildungsroman'': a coming-of-age novel. According to ''Encyclopaedia Britannica'', one way a Künstlerroman may differ from a Bildungsroman is its ending, where a Künstlerroman hero rejects the everyday life, but a Bildungsroman hero settles for being an ordinary citizen. According to ''Oxford Reference'', the difference may lie in a longer view across the Künstlerroman hero's whole life, not just their childhood years.
