In this paper, I present several corpus linguistic studies that show the continuity of the diachronic loss of the German genitive within novellas from the past two centuries. Moreover, I found that not all genitive constructions are diachronically receding and that e.g. the adnominal genitive is particularly stable along the analyzed time frame. Furthermore, some authors in Paul Heyse’s Deutscher Novellenschatz use genitives as stylistic device in order to relate their novellas to a specific register or an exalted stylistic level.
