    Looking at literary texts, the volume opens up innovative and differentiated perspectives on the socio-politically controversial phenomenon of migration. It draws on Hartmut Böhme’s notion of literature as a discursive system of actions and symbols that contributes to the self-reflection of societies, even though – or rather precisely because – the ‘disturbing’ character of literature is tolerated and controlled to a certain extent. The analyses gathered in this volume look at contemporary European literature and focus on the question of how experiences of migration are thematized and aesthetically shaped in literary texts. In doing so, concepts of migrant identity, transcultural topographies of memory, phenomena of drawing and transgressing boundaries/borders, as well as notions of in-between spaces come into focus. Particular attention is paid to questions regarding the possibility of a “poetics of migration” by examining textual phenomena such as polyperspectivity, forms of multilingualism, and techniques of pseudo-translation through the lens of transcultural narratology. Der Sammelband eröffnet innovative und differenzierte Perspektiven auf das gesellschaftspolitisch brisante Phänomen der Migration, indem das „Spielfeld“ der Literatur und damit künstlerische bzw. fiktionale Texte in den Blick genommen werden. Dabei wird Literatur im Sinne Hartmut Böhmes als diskursives Handlungs- und Symbolsystem verstanden, das zu einer Selbstbeobachtung von Gesellschaften beiträgt, obwohl – oder vielmehr weil – ihr Störcharakter bis zu einem gewissen Grad toleriert und kontrolliert wird. Im Mittelpunkt der Analysen zu ausgewählten Texten europäischer Gegenwartsliteraturen steht die Frage, wie in literarischen Texten Migrationserfahrungen thematisiert und ästhetisch gestaltet werden. Auf diese Weise rücken zum einen migratorische Identitätsentwürfe, transkulturelle Erinnerungstopographien, Phänomene von Grenzziehung und Grenzübertritt sowie Zwischenräume im Sinne des „third space“ in das Blickfeld. Zum anderen liegt ein zentrales Augenmerk auf Fragen einer „Poetik der Migration“, indem im Sinne einer transkulturellen Narratologie textuelle Phänomene wie Polyperspektivität, Formen der Mehrsprachigkeit oder Verfahren der Pseudoübersetzung untersucht werden.

  2. “Colonised by Wankers” : Postcolonialism and Contemporary Scottish Fiction

    "Has Scotland suffered from colonial oppression by England for the last 300 years? While historiography may give an answer in the negative,

    this study reveals that the contemporary Scottish novel is

    haunted by strong feelings, marked by perceptions of abjection and

    inferiorisation in response to constructing the English as dominating.

    Drawing from an unprecedented corpus of contemporary Scottish

    novels, this study explores the postcolonial in Scottish fiction in

    order to investigate the underlying discursive power relations that

    shape the Scottish literary imagination. The study consequently

    demonstrates that the analysis of Scottish national identity profits

    from this new angle of interpretation of the Scottish novel as postcolonial.

    The analysis of discourses such as those of gender, class,

    space and place, and race reveals how the construction of the Scottish

    as marginalised permeates the width of the contemporary Scottish

    novel, by referring to diverse examples, such as James Kelman’s

    How late it was, how late or genre fiction such as Ian Rankin’s Set in

    Darkness. Thus, this study provides an insightful reading in the wake

    of current political developments such as the Scottish independence

    referendum."

    Bernhard Oberreither analyzes in the context of historical and contemporary fetish discourses how supposedly innocent things often turn out to be the key to the enigmatic structure of Paulus Hochgatterer's texts, and how his texts can be read at the same time as a highly reflected commentary on the always precarious, suspicious, sometimes »corrupt« (Hartmut Böhme) relationship of man to his things. Bernhard Oberreither analysiert im Kontext historischer und gegenwärtiger Fetischdiskurse, wie sich vermeintlich unschuldige Dinge oft als Schlüssel zur Rätselstruktur der Texte Paulus Hochgatterers erweisen, und wie dessen Texte zugleich als hochgradig reflektierter Kommentar zum stets prekären, verdächtigen, mithin »korrupten« (Hartmut Böhme) Verhältnis des Menschen zu seinen Dingen zu lesen sind.

    This edited volume examines the representation of victims beyond the categories of the “victim cult,” self-victimization, and the victim–perpetrator dichotomy. Adopting a transnational perspective, it mainly considers literature written after 1989, leveraging concepts of dialogical and multidirectional memory to facilitate differentiated perspectives in the politics of memory regarding the highly charged figure of the victim. Das Buch befasst sich aus literatur- und kulturwissenschaftlicher Sicht mit der Repräsentation von Opfern abseits von ‚Opferkult‘, (Selbst-)Viktimisierung und Täter-Opfer-Binarität in vorwiegend nach 1989 entstandenen literarischen Texten. Dabei werden Konzepte dialogischen bzw. multidirektionalen Erinnerns sowie eine transnationale Perspektive produktiv gemacht, um differenzierte Sichtweisen auf die gedächtnispolitisch brisante Figur des Opfers zu eröffnen.

  5. Mysterious Minds : The Making of Private and Collective Consciousness in Marja-Liisa Vartio's Novels

    This study examines the narrative tools, techniques, and structures that Marja-Liisa Vartio, a classic of Finnish post-war modernism, used in presenting fictional minds in her narrative prose. The study contributes to the academic discussion on formal and thematic conventions of modernism by addressing the ways in which fictional minds work in interaction, and in relation to the enfolding fictional world. The epistemic problem of how accurately the world, the self, and the other can be known is approached by analyzing two co-operating ways of portraying fictional minds, both from external and internal perspectives. The external perspective relies on detachment and emotional restraint dominating in Vartio’s early novels Se on sitten kevät and Mies kuin mies, tyttö kuin tyttö. The internal perspective pertains to the mental processes of self-reflection, speculation, and excessive imagining that gain more importance in her later novels Kaikki naiset näkevät unia, Tunteet, and Hänen olivat linnut. In the theoretical chapter of this study, fictional minds are discussed in the context of the acclaimed “inward turn” of modernist fiction, by suggesting alternative methods for reading modernist minds as embodied, emotional, and social entities. In respect to fictional minds’ interaction, this study elaborates on the ideas of “mind-reading,” “intersubjectivity,” and the “social mind” established within post-classical cognitive narratology. Furthermore, it employs possible world poetics when addressing the complexity, incompleteness, and (in)accessibility of Vartio’s epistemic worlds, including the characters’ private worlds of knowledge, beliefs, emotions, hallucinations, and dreams. In regards to the emotional emplotment of fictional worlds, this study also benefits from affective narratology as well as the plot theory being influenced by possible world semantics, narrative dynamics, and cognitive narratology.

    As the five analysis chapters of this study show, fictional minds in Vartio’s fiction are not only introspective, solipsist, and streaming, but also embodied and social entities. In the readings of the primary texts, the concept of embodiedness is used to examine the situated presence of an experiencing mind within the time and space of the storyworld. Fictional minds’ (inter)actions are also demonstrated as evolving from local experientiality to long-term calculations that turn emotional incidents into episodes, and episodes into stories. In Vartio’s novels, the emotional story structure of certain conventional story patterns, such as the narratives of female development and the romance plot, the sentimental novel, and epistolary fiction, are modified and causally altered in the portrayal of the embodied interactions between the self, the other, and the world. The trajectories of female self-discovery in Vartio’s novels are analyzed through the emotional responses of characters: their experiences of randomness, their ways of counterfactualizing their traumatic past, their procrastinatory or akratic reactions or indecisiveness. The gradual move away from the percepts of the external world to the excessive imaginings and (mis)readings of other minds (triggered by the interaction of worlds and minds), challenges the contemporary and more recent accounts of modernism both in Finnish and international contexts.

    The release of No Time To Die in 2020 heralds the arrival of the twenty-fifth installment in the James Bond film series. Since the release of Dr. No in 1962, the cinematic James Bond has expedited the transformation of Ian Fleming's literary creation into an icon of western popular culture that has captivated audiences across the globe by transcending barriers of ideology, nation, empire, gender, race, ethnicity, and generation. The Cultural Life of James Bond: Specters of 007 untangles the seemingly perpetual allure of the Bond phenomenon by looking at the non-canonical texts and contexts that encompass the cultural life of James Bond. Chronicling the evolution of the British secret agent over half a century of political, social, and cultural permutations, the fifteen chapters examine the Bond-brand beyond the film series and across media platforms while understanding these ancillary texts and contexts as sites of negotiation with the Eon franchise.

    Introduction -- 1. Risk and Proximity -- 2. Risk and Embodiment -- 3. Risk and Scale -- 4. Risk, Action, and Sympathy -- Bibliography -- Index. "Beyond Safety argues that concerns about the ethical impossibility of individual safety in the face of risks with increasingly obvious global consequences alters representations of neoliberal contemporary life. As the climate crises in the Caribbean and Australia, ongoing European refugee and American border crises, and, most recently, anxieties about Coronavirus illustrate, contemporary life is characterized by global connections that produce and reflect precarious outcomes and dangers. The ability to ignore risk or shift it to others underscores the fact that it is mitigable for particular segments of society while inescapable for others. Emily Johansen investigates depictions of global danger and safety in contemporary transnational fictional and popular texts-those characterized by a narrative or representational emphasis on border crossing and global interdependences. She demonstrates how these texts use risk to question and re-imagine the norms and practices of contemporary global citizenship. Beyond Safety thus brings together three of the central keywords of contemporary literary criticism of the last ten years (cosmopolitanism, precarity, neoliberalism) and shows how their intersection allows for a fuller conception of contemporary life and imagines a new global future."--

    Fouada meets Farid, her lover, every Tuesday in a restaurant overlooking the Nile. But this week their usual table is deserted. She calls his home, but the shrilling of the telephone echoes in an empty room. Farid has disappeared. As she searches for him, Fouada becomes tormented by questions. She is a trained research chemist, but works in a dead-end ministry job. Convinced that she has something to give to the world, she cannot find it. What is it? Why does she search? Searching expresses the poignancy of loss and doubt with the hypnotic intensity of a remembered dream. -- Publisher description

    "Nawal El Saadawi's highly acclaimed feminist novel, Woman at Point Zero, follows the life of Firdaus, an Egyptian peasant girl, from her childhood of incomprehensible cruelty and neglect to her end in a grimy Cairo prison cell. From her earliest memories, Firdaus suffered at the hands of men--first her abusive father, then her violent, much older husband, to finally her deceitful boyfriend-turned-pimp. After a lifetime of abuse, she at last takes drastic action against the males ruling her life. Still as beautiful and cutting as it was when it was first published, this new edition will continue to resonate powerfully with readers for years to come."--

    Victorian Dress in Contemporary Historical Fiction is the first full-length study to investigate and attend to the deeply suggestive and highly symbolic iterations of Victorian women's dress in the contemporary cultural imagination. Drawing upon a range of popular and less well-studied neo-Victorian novels published between 1990 and 2014, as well as their Victorian counterparts, 19th-century illustrative material, and extant Victorian garments, Danielle Dove explores the creative possibilities afforded by dress and fashion as gendered sites of agency and affect. Focusing on the relationship between texts and textiles, she demonstrates how dress is central to the narrativization, re-formulation, and re-fashioning of the material past in the present. In its examination of the narrative trajectories, lively vitalities, and material entanglements that accrue to, and originate from, dress in the neo-Victorian novel, this study brings a fresh approach to reading Victorian sartorial culture. For researchers and students of Victorian and neo-Victorian studies, dress history, material culture, and gender studies, this volume offers a rich resource with which to illuminate the power of fashion in fiction.

    Annotation The Jews is an anti-historical thriller in the form of a Talmudic tragicomedy, taking place sometime during the Second World War. Stalin and his Minister of Security Beria are worried about the political developments in Germany, where Martin Heidegger has replaced Adolf Hitler as Chancellor of the Third Reich. Suspecting that the Frankfurt School, headed by Vice-Chancellor Walter Benjamin, has masterminded this takeover, he dispatches two Jewish actors, Salomon Maimon and Natalia Goncharova, to investigate the situation in the hope of uncovering the extent of the Jewish conspiracy. Upon arrival in Berlin, Maimon and Goncharova are received by Benjamin, who introduces them to Heidegger. The latter has stopped speaking to anyone except his mother since his rise to power, and Benjamin holds long speeches on the history of theater, the law, God, the royal gods and the old goddesses. Eventually, prodded by his mother, Heidegger marries Goncharova, surrounded by a merry audience. The novel ends on a plain somewhere between Moscow and Berlin, where the final battle for Jerusalem is being waged. In front of the entrance of a camp, Maimon and Benjamin are joined by a group of old Jews arriving by train, bringing the news of Stalin's death by circumcision. They reenact scenes from the Old Testament while Jerusalem is burning. Did the world to come finally arrive?

    Introduction -- 1. Risk and Proximity -- 2. Risk and Embodiment -- 3. Risk and Scale -- 4. Risk, Action, and Sympathy -- Bibliography -- Index. "Beyond Safety argues that concerns about the ethical impossibility of individual safety in the face of risks with increasingly obvious global consequences alters representations of neoliberal contemporary life. As the climate crises in the Caribbean and Australia, ongoing European refugee and American border crises, and, most recently, anxieties about Coronavirus illustrate, contemporary life is characterized by global connections that produce and reflect precarious outcomes and dangers. The ability to ignore risk or shift it to others underscores the fact that it is mitigable for particular segments of society while inescapable for others. Emily Johansen investigates depictions of global danger and safety in contemporary transnational fictional and popular texts-those characterized by a narrative or representational emphasis on border crossing and global interdependences. She demonstrates how these texts use risk to question and re-imagine the norms and practices of contemporary global citizenship. Beyond Safety thus brings together three of the central keywords of contemporary literary criticism of the last ten years (cosmopolitanism, precarity, neoliberalism) and shows how their intersection allows for a fuller conception of contemporary life and imagines a new global future."--

    Last Year at Betty and Bob's: A Novelty is the first in a series of novellas emerging from a writing practice that taps the cusp of consciousness between dreaming and waking. A storyline, or genealogy, tinted a shade of RGB blue, is fashioned by thinking through the felt unthought of this between space. A fabulation, an anarchive of what passes through. Lucid dreaming of this type is rife with allusions to conceptual and material goings-on, manifesting in awkward imaginaries. The dream personas are rendered as complex character amalgams with nomadic ages, sexes, genders and phenotypes. Occurrences of lived "fact" elide with a hallucinatory real as speculation. In A Novelty, Bette B, an ageing quasi-academic artist researcher, and BØB, attuned urban rodent, are palindromic variants of a generic cast of Betty's and Bob's. The happenstance of their meeting on the super slick POMOC (PostOffice MotionCorridor) affects a trans-special contagion. These are the facts of the matter. The matters that come to concern both B's are more slippery and elusive

The dream personas are rendered as complex character amalgams with nomadic ages, sexes, genders, and phenotypes. Occurrences of lived "fact" elide with a hallucinatory real as speculation. In An Adventure, a feral feminist artist collective, The Bettys, inhabit a timeless Arcades Project. This is their experiment in wild hypo-consumerism. The event of Red Betty's fall generates the advent of a turn. A cleaving. The intra-play of personal politics and activist artistic practices is surreally suffused with attention to color, to life and death, to lightness and heaviness

Henry Fielding, Laurence Sterne and Jane Austen are stable landmarks, while, of the contemporary practitioners, a handful recur from one chapter to the next, particularly Julian Barnes, Ian McEwan and Kazuo Ishiguro. The chapters share an interest in the rhetoric of fiction, broadly understood as the way in which fictional works achieve their effects on readers, whether by directly addressing a hypothetical reader, using iro

    For centuries, the figure of the witch represented the hostile and feared "other" on the edge of human society, placed "in between" the world of people and the world of demons. Whether she stood for the untamed powers of nature, dark powers of knowledge or magic, or evil powers derived from the devil, she was always identified with fear as a disturbance, as a danger to the order of society and to the well-being of those who understood themselves as settled within the borders of the patriarcha

    "Migration is both a demographic and a cultural phenomenon. As such, it both reshapes the global village and subverts the all-encompassing vision of the city, a space split between the blending of all new cultures and the need felt by many migrants to maintain their traditions and thereby contribute to a multicultural mosaic. This series of essays explores how the concepts of the melting-pot and the mosaic have shaped the representation of Paris and Montreal in francophone literatures. Migrant movements to these cities from the Caribbean, the Maghreb, Sub-Saharan Africa, Quebec, Indochina, and the Indian Ocean have produced new groups of intersecting cultures. Under the dual influences of their native and host countries, migrants have produced an innovative and multifaceted literature that reflects their composite world-view. Their writing poses pressing questions of ethnicity, immigration, integration, and citizenship, and challenges longstanding notions both of the concept of the city and of how its spaces embody and articulate Frenchness in the face of ongoing change. Such shifts produce changes not only in the diasporic culture, but in the national culture as well, through creolization processes. These shifting identities increasingly destabilize current notions of national membership and social and cultural belonging, since we can no longer presume a direct correspondence between place, culture, language and identity. They also pose new questions of national identity and difference as the immigrant presence expands and inflects the cosmopolitan pluralism of today's societies"--Provided by publisher

    This book offers a valuable contribution to the practice of literary criticism and cultural studies by seeking to explore ""transgression"" as a literary theme. Based on the analyses of six representative twentieth century novels, it deals with the fictional representation of various transgressive acts, from murder and incest to forbidden love affairs and adultery. A detailed consideration of major reader-response theories establishes a useful context for the textual analyses, as the readers ar
