    ›Skandale‹ um geheim gehaltene Verstrickungen in den Nationalsozialismus haben u. a. mit Grass, Andersch oder Walser zentrale Mitglieder der Gruppe 47 betroffen. Die Studie fragt erstmals systematisch nach der Bedeutung dieser Einflüsse für die literarischen Texte der Gruppe. Ausgehend vom gegenwärtigen Bild der Gruppe 47, von Theorien narrativer Ethik und der Geschichtsforschung zur ›NS-Moral‹ untersucht die Studie diskursive Verknüpfungen von Moral und Zugehörigkeit in den wichtigsten Texten der Gruppe 47. Qualitative und quantitative Analysen zeigen die Vorherrschaft eines partikularen Moralverständnisses sowie in mehreren Texten einen Zusammenhang dieser Moralvorstellungen mit literarischem Antisemitismus. Daneben finden sich – u. a. in Bezugnahmen auf Bubers dialogisches Prinzip, das gerade die Hinwendung zum ›radikal Anderen‹ als ethisches Handeln konzipiert – auch alternative Ethiken; allerdings oft in Texten marginalisierter oder als untypisch geltender Mitglieder wie Bachmann und Celan.

    What is practice-based literary research? While literature as a discipline is currently not represented in the artistic research discourse, individual writers and scholars have ties to a variety of institutional constellations in which overlaps between literature, art, and research become manifest. 16 of them expand on their methodological approaches as well as their practice, and they analyse exemplary case studies.

    "By the time Frederich Schiller came to write the Wallenstein trilogy, his reputation as one of Germany’s leading playwrights was all but secured. Consisting of Wallenstein’s Camp, The Piccolomini and Wallenstein’s Death, this suite of plays appeared between 1798 and 1799, each production under the original direction of Schiller’s collaborator and mentor, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe. Across the three plays, which are now commonly performed and printed together, Schiller charts the thwarted rebellion of General Albrecht von Wallenstein. Based loosely on the events of the Thirty Years’ War, the trilogy provides a unique perspective on an army’s loyalty to their commander and the machinations and intrigues of international diplomacy, giving insight into the military hero who is placed on the threshold between these forces as they are increasingly pitted against one another. The Wallenstein trilogy, formally innovative and modern beyond its time, is a brilliant study of power, ambition and betrayal. In this new translation—the latest in a long line of distinguished English translations starting with Coleridge’s in Schiller’s lifetime—Flora Kimmich succeeds in rendering what is often a difficult source text into language that is at once accessible and enjoyable. Coupled with a complete and careful commentary and a glossary, both of which are targeted to undergraduates, it is accompanied by an authoritative introductory essay by Roger Paulin. Kimmich’s translation will be an invaluable resource for students of German, European literature and history, and military history, as well as to all readers approaching this important set of plays for the first time."--Publisher's website Translator’s Note / Flora Kimmich -- Additional Resources -- Introduction / Roger Paulin -- Wallenstein’s Camp.

    "It is strange," Proust wrote in 1909, "that, in the most widely different departments ... there should be no other literature which exercises over me so powerful an influence as English and American." In the spirit of Proust's admission, this engaging and critical volume offers the first comparative reading of the French novelist in the context of American art, literature, and culture. In addition to examining Proust's key American influences--Ralph Waldo Emerson, Edgar Allen Poe, and James McNeill Whistler--Proust and America investigates the previously overlooked influence of the American neurologist George Beard, whose writings on neurasthenia and "American nervousness" contributed to the essential modernity of the author's work Introduction: the spirit of liberty -- Le Côte de New York, or Marcel in America -- The impossible possible philosophers' man -- A bout de souffle -- Exquisite corpses/buried texts -- Proust's butterfly.

    "This is the first book to combine contemporary debates in ballad studies with the insights of modern textual scholarship. Just like canonical literature and music, the ballad should not be seen as a uniquely authentic item inextricably tied to a documented source, but rather as an unstable structure subject to the vagaries of production, reception, and editing. Among the matters addressed are topics central to the subject, including ballad origins, oral and printed transmission, sound and writing, agency and editing, and textual and melodic indeterminacy and instability. While drawing on the time-honoured materials of ballad studies, the book offers a theoretical framework for the discipline to complement the largely ethnographic approach that has dominated in recent decades. Primarily directed at the community of ballad and folk song scholars, the book will be of interest to researchers in several adjacent fields, including folklore, oral literature, ethnomusicology, and textual scholarship."--Publisher's website Preface -- 1. Where is the ballad? -- 2. On the nature of evidence -- 3. Textual authority and the sources of variance -- 4. The material ballad -- 5. Sound and writing -- 6.

    "The canon of Russian poetry has been reshaped since the fall of the Soviet Union. A multi-authored study of changing cultural memory and identity, this revisionary work charts Russia’s shifting relationship to its own literature in the face of social upheaval. Literary canon and national identity are inextricably tied together, the composition of a canon being the attempt to single out those literary works that best express a nation’s culture. This process is, of course, fluid and subject to significant shifts, particularly at times of epochal change. This volume explores changes in the canon of twentieth-century Russian poetry from the 1991 collapse of the Soviet Union to the end of Putin’s second term as Russian President in 2008. In the wake of major institutional changes, such as the abolition of state censorship and the introduction of a market economy, the way was open for wholesale reinterpretation of twentieth-century poets such as Iosif Brodskii, Anna Akhmatova and Osip Mandel′shtam, their works and their lives. In the last twenty years many critics have discussed the possibility of various coexisting canons rooted in official and non-official literature and suggested replacing the term "Soviet literature" with a new definition – "Russian literature of the Soviet period". Contributions to this volume explore the multiple factors involved in reshaping the canon, understood as a body of literary texts given exemplary or representative status as "classics". Among factors which may influence the composition of the canon are educational institutions, competing views of scholars and critics, including figures outside Russia, and the self-canonising activity of poets themselves. Canon revision further reflects contemporary concerns with the destabilising effects of emigration and the internet, and the desire to reconnect with pre-revolutionary cultural traditions through a narrative of the past which foregrounds continuity. Despite persistent nostalgic yearnings in some quarters for a single canon, the current situation is defiantly diverse, balancing both the Soviet literary tradition and the parallel contemporaneous literary worlds of the emigration and the underground."--Publisher's website Notes on Contributors -- 1.

    "Within two years of the success of his first play Die Räuber on the German stage in 1781, Schiller wrote a drama based on a rebellion in sixteenth century Italy, its title: The Conspiracy of Fiesco at Genoa. A Republican Tragedy. At the head of the conspiracy stood Gian Luigi de' Fieschi (1524-1547), Schiller's Count Fiesco, a clever, courageous and charismatic figure, an epicurean and unhesitant egoist, politically ambitious, but unsure of his aims and principles. He is one of Schiller's mysterious, protean characters who secures both our admiration and disgust. With Fiesco as tragic hero Schiller examines the complex entanglement of morality and politics in his own times that was to preoccupy him throughout his career. The play was a moderate success when performed in Mannheim in 1784; it was more popular in Berlin where, during Schiller's lifetime, it was performed many times in a version by Carl Plümicke, which however radically altered the play's meaning. There have been some noteworthy productions on the German stage and television, even if it has remained somewhat in the shadow of Schiller' other works. In the English-speaking world it is all but unknown and very seldom performed. This translation aims to remedy that oversight."--Publisher's website

    Canadian literature, and specifically the teaching of Canadian literature, has emerged from a colonial duty to a nationalist enterprise and into the current territory of postcolonialism. From practical discussions related to specific texts, to more theoretical discussions about pedagogical practice regarding issues of nationalism and identity, Home-Work constitutes a major investigation and reassessment of the influence of postcolonial theory on Canadian literary pedagogy from some of the top scholars in the field.

    The Arjunawiwāha is one of the best known of the Old Javanese classics. This volume presents a new text, based on Balinese manuscripts, with a complete translation, building on the work done by earlier writers. An introduction provides ample background information, as well as an original interpretation of the significance of the text, within its historical and cultural setting. This poem was written by Mpu Kanwa in around A.D. 1030 under King Airlangga, who ruled in East Java. It is Mpu Kanwa's only known work, and is the second oldest example in the genre of kakawin. The poem is a narrative, but also contains passages of description, philosophical or religious teaching of great interest, as well as remarkable erotic scenes. Parts of the tale have been depicted on early temple reliefs and in paintings, and the text is still recited in Bali by literary clubs and in temple ceremonies. Stuart Robson, Associate Professor of Indonesian at Monash University from 1991 to 2001 and now retired, has been studying Old Javanese for more than forty years. He is interested in the problem of how to translate works of Old Javanese literature in such a way as to make these more accessible and better known to a wider audience of both scholars and general readers.

    The medieval poem Cursor Mundi is a biblical verse account of the history of the world, offering a chronological overview of salvation history from Creation to Doomsday. Originating in northern England around the year 1300, the poem was frequently copied in the north before appearing in a southern version in substantially altered form. Although it is a storehouse of popular medieval biblical lore and a fascinating study in the eclectic use of more than a dozen sources, the poem has until now attracted little scholarly attention. This five-part collaborative edition presents the Arundel version.

    Fictional reconstructions of the Gospels continue to find a place in contemporary literature and in the popular imagination. Present day writers of New Testament fiction and drama are usually considered as part of a tradition formed by mid-to-late-twentieth-century authors such as Robert Graves, Nikos Kazantzakis and Anthony Burgess. This book looks back further to the late-nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries, when the templates of the majority of today's Gospel fictions and dramas were set down. In doing so, it examines the extent to which significant works of biblical scholarship both influenced and inspired literary works. Focusing on writers such as Oscar Wilde, George Moore and Marie Corelli, this timely new addition to the English Association Monographs series will be essential reading for scholars working at the intersection of literature and theology.

    Australia has been seen as a land of both punishment and refuge. Australian literature has explored these controlling alternatives, and vividly rendered the landscape on which they transpire. Twentieth-century writers left Australia to see the world; now Australia's distance no longer provides sanctuary. But today the global perspective has arrived with a vengeance. In Contemporary Australian Literature: A World Not Yet Dead, Nicholas Birns tells the story of how novelists, poets and critics, from Patrick White to Hannah Kent, from Alexis Wright to Christos Tsiolkas, responded to this condition. With rancour, concern and idealism, modern Australian literature conveys a tragic sense of the past yet an abiding vision of the way forward. Birns paints a vivid picture of a rich Australian literary voice - one not lost to the churning of global markets, but in fact given new life by it.

    In the centre of this study stand some 154 letters exchanged between the Austrian writer Alexander Lernet-Holenia (1897-1976) and Maria Charlotte ("Lotte") Sweceny (née Stein, 1904-1956), the co-proprietor of the Viennese publishing house Manz, between 1938 and 1945. The transcripts are followed by a commentary that aims to elucidate the historical, individual and geographical references. A methodological note explains the corpus' provenance and method of transcribing and commenting on the letters adopted in the thesis. The last chapter of this study is devoted to Lotte Sweceny, the letters' addressee, and her family background. The letters' existence is due to the fact that the couple was separated by the outbreak of WW II and continued their relationship through correspondence. In September 1939 Lernet took part in the "Wehrmacht's" raid on Poland and was lightly wounded. As a result he spent the rest of the war on a leave of absence in his house in St. Wolfgang and, after September 1941, in Berlin. There, he worked as head of development of the "Heeresfilmstelle" (an office in charge of producing NS propaganda films), writing scripts himself and evaluating those by others. In these years, two of his most important novels, Mars im Widder (Mars in Aries) and Beide Sizilien (The Two Sicilies), were written - both are today considered as running counter to NS propaganda. Lotte Sweceny and her friends found their way into the set of characters and into the plot of Mars in Aries. The collection of poems Die Trophae (The Trophy) also originated from these years. When published in 1946, Lernet dedicated this work - which he considered to be his best - to Lotte Sweceny. The letters contain important background and numerous insights about the genesis and subsequent publicati ... Zentrum der vorliegenden Arbeit bildet die Edition des Briefwechsels zwischen dem österreichischen Schriftsteller Alexander Lernet-Holenia (1897-1976) und Maria Charlotte ("Lotte") Sweceny (geb. Stein, 1904-1956), Gesellschafterin des Wiener Verlags Manz, während der Jahre 1938 bis 1945. Ein einleitender Aufsatz bietet einen Forschungsüberblick, gibt den Inhalt der Briefe wieder und analysiert ihre Bedeutung für Biografie und Werk Alexander Lernet-Holenias. Auf die Transkripte der 154 Briefe folgt der Kommentar, der die in diesen vorhandenen Bezüge historischer, personeller, geografischer und sonstiger Art erläutert. Ein editorischer Bericht gibt Aufschluss über die Provenienz des Korpus' sowie die Methode von Transkription und Kommentierung. Das abschließende Kapitel widmet sich Lotte Sweceny, der Adressatin der Briefe, und ihrem familiären Hintergrund. Die Existenz der Briefe verdankt sich der Tatsache, dass das Paar durch den Ausbruch des Zweiten Weltkriegs getrennt wurde und seine Beziehung mit Hilfe von Briefen fortführte. Im September 1939 nahm der Wehrmachts-Offizier Alexander Lernet-Holenia am Überfall auf Polen teil, wurde verwundet und verbrachte den Rest des Krieges beurlaubt in seinem Haus in St. Wolfgang bzw. ab September 1941 überwiegend in Berlin, wo er als Leiter des Entwicklungsstabs der Heeresfilmstelle Drehbücher beurteilte und auch selbst verfasste. Ebenfalls aus diesen Jahren datieren zwei seiner bedeutendsten Romane, Mars im Widder und Beide Sizilien, die beide der Propaganda, die er im Brotberuf generieren half, zuwiderlaufen. Lotte Sweceny und ihr Freundeskreis fanden in Figurengestaltung und Handlung des Mars im Widder Eingang. Auch die Gedichtsammlung Die Trophae entstand in diesen Jahren - bei ihrem Erscheinen 1946 widmete Lernet dieses ihm l ...

    With its expert seminars for alumnis abroad the Georg-August-University Göttingen wants to strengthen its contact with the alumni in the long term and create a global network. This volume is the result of a seminar on "Germany and the Wende (Change) in Literature, Language and Media". The participants were scientists, writers and filmmakers with their own views on contemporary German history and the reunification as well as alumni from China, Japan and Korea who are involved in their home countries in the dissemination of German language and culture. The seminar and the title discuss a specifically German experience, the reunification („Die Wende“) as central theme which also has an actual and high relevance in Korea and China. Mit ihren Expertenseminaren für Alumni im Ausland möchte die Georg-August-Universität Göttingen die Bindung zu ihren Ehemaligen langfristig stärken und ein weltweites Netzwerk aufbauen. Der vorliegende Band ist das Ergebnis des Expertenseminars „Deutschland und die Wende in Literatur, Sprache und Medien“, an dem Wissenschaftler, Schriftsteller und Filmemacher mit ihrem Blick auf die deutsche Gegenwartsgeschichte sowie Alumni aus China, Japan und Korea, die sich in ihren Heimatländern für die Verbreitung der deutschen Sprache und Kultur engagieren, teilnahmen. Das Seminar und sein nachfolgender Band stellen eine spezifisch deutsche Erfahrung in den Mittelpunkt und thematisieren damit gleichzeitig Fragen, die etwa in Korea und China hohe Aktualität besitzen. Die Beiträge des Bandes nehmen das gewählte Thema in den Blickpunkt, indem etwa die Sprache vor und nach der Wende, die literarische Intelligenz in Ost und West, die Filme der DEFA, oder der Wandel der DDR-Medien durch die Wende, die Wende-Filme bis hin zur Wende im Spiegel der Gegenwartslyrik beleuchtet wird. Andere Beiträge des Bandes zeigen die Situation der Auslandsgermanistik in den Herkunftsregionen der Alumni oder die wachsende Bedeutung einer kulturwissenschaftlich geprägten Interkulturellen Germanistik auf.

    This book is a documentation of the alumni summer school„Kulturelle Vielfalt deutscher Literatur, Sprache und Medien“. The collected articles explain the discussion about education in multi-cultural societies in providing an insight into intercultural didactics and intercultur in different texts and media. Für die Georg-August-Universität Göttingen sind ihre ehemaligen Studierenden, Wissenschaftlerinnen und Wissenschaftler wichtige Partner auf dem Weg hin zu einer der führenden Forschungsuniversitäten in Europa, an der begabte junge Menschen für die großen Herausforderungen der Zukunft gerüstet werden. Mit Förderung durch den Deutschen Akademischen Austausch Dienst (DAAD) bietet die Georgia Augusta ihren ausländischen Ehemaligen in Sommerschulen und Expertenseminaren regelmäßig die Möglichkeit zur wissenschaftlichen Fortbildung und zum akademischen Austausch mit Kolleginnen und Kollegen an ihrem ehemaligen Studienort. Der vorliegende Band ist eine Dokumentation der Alumni-Sommerschule „Kulturelle Vielfalt deutscher Literatur, Sprache und Medien“, zu der die Interkulturelle Germanistik der Georg-August-Universität eingeladen hatte. Veränderungen durch Migration und mehrfach kulturell geprägte Gesellschaften sind längst ein europäisches Phänomen geworden, was die wissenschaftliche Analyse und Erforschung aber auch die bildungspolitische Praxis und die Umsetzung gewonnener Erkenntnisse notwendig macht. Die versammelten Beiträge sind Dokumentationen dieser Auseinandersetzungen, wenn sie Interkulturalität in unterschiedlichen Texten und Medien nachspüren oder aber Einblicke in interkulturelle Didaktikkonzepte geben.

    Introduction : towards a reconceptualization of trauma -- Theorizing trauma : Romantic and postmodern perspectives on mental wounds -- The "wounded mind" : feminism, trauma, and self-narration in Mary Wollstonecraft's The wrongs of woman -- Anatomizing the "demons of hatred" : traumatic loss and mental illness in William Godwin's Mandeville -- A tragedy of incest : trauma, identity, and performativity in Mary Shelley's Mathilda -- Polluted daughters : incestuous abuse and the postmodern tragic in Jane Smiley's A thousand acres -- Inheriting trauma : family bonds and memory ties in Anne Michaels's Fugitive pieces -- The body of evidence : family history, guilt, and recovery in Trezza Azzopardi's The hiding place. Trauma has become a hotly contested topic in literary studies. But interest in trauma is not new; its roots extend to the Romantic period, when novelists and the first psychiatrists influenced each others' investigations of the "wounded mind". This book looks back to these early attempts to understand trauma, reading a selection of Romantic novels in dialogue with Romantic and contemporary psychiatry. It then carries that dialogue forward to postmodern fiction, examining further how empirical approaches can deepen our theorizations of trauma. Within an interdisciplinary framework, this study reveals fresh insights into the poetics, politics, and ethics of trauma fiction
