    The book is a study of the most recent American fiction, published at the turn of the 21th century, which demonstrates a renewed interest in the matters of history. Using the concepts of memory and experience, the author points at the ways in which subjective history has been created in the new «novel about history», written by such authors as William Gass, Richard Powers, Marilynne Robinson, Nicholson Baker, Aleksandar Hemon, and Jeffrey Eugenides. Theoretically, the study has been inspired by the works of Aleida Assmann, Hayden White, Reinhart Koselleck, Frank Ankersmit, and Dominick LaCapra.

    ***Angaben zur beteiligten Person Bönisch: Dr. Dana Bönisch ist wissenschaftliche Mitarbeiterin am Institut für Germanistik, Vergleichende Literatur- und Kulturwissenschaft / Abteilung für Komparatistik an der Universität Bonn. Zuvor arbeitete sie als Kulturjournalistin und veröffentlichte Kurzprosa und einen Roman. ***Angaben zur beteiligten Person Baumann: Prof. Dr. Uwe Baumann lehrt Anglistik/Amerikanistik: Literatur- und Kulturwissenschaft an der Universität Bonn. Der vorliegende Band nimmt eine Kopplung von Bild- und Raumtheorie vor, die den missing links zwischen beiden Bereichen nachspürt und sie gleichzeitig in Beziehung zu Erzählungen setzt. Aus dieser Verquickung wird erstmals eine Poetik asymmetrischer Kriegsführung im Zeitalter der Drohne entwickelt, die gemeinsame motivische Knotenpunkte in Fiktion, Theorie und medialem Diskurs in den Blick nimmt. Ausgangsmaterial ist eine zweite, bislang nahezu unbeachtet gebliebene Generation von Post-9/11-Romanen, die sich den globalen Kriegen der letzten Jahrzehnte zuwendet. Dabei werden verschiedene Wissens-, Raum- und Blickordnungen verhandelt: von den stabilen Distanzen des euklidischen Raums zu den fluiden Koordinatennetzen der Topologie; von der Fernsicht des elektronischen Live-Feeds der Drohne zu Deleuzes vision rapprochée; und von den ikonischen Bildformeln des jungen Jahrtausends zu ihren Gegenentwürfen in der Literatur. The present volume combines the theories of view and space. At the same time, it examines the missing links between these fields and puts them in a narrative context. For the first time, these links develop poetics of asymmetrical warfare in the era of drones which focuses on commonalities in fiction, theory and media discourse. It is based on a second, almost unnoticed generation of post 9/11 novels which dedicate themselves with global wars of the last decades. Here, different scientific, space and view orders are being discussed. It ranges from the stable distances of the Euclidean space to the fluid coordinate nets of topology, from the distance vision of the electronic realtime video feeds of drones to the vision rapprochée of Deleuze, and from the iconic image formulas of the young millennium to its alternatives in literature.

    This interdisciplinary study examines the still vivid phenomenon of the most controversial psychiatric diagnosis in the United States: multiple personality disorder, now called dissociative identity disorder. This syndrome comprehends the occurrence of two or more distinct identities that take control of a person's behavior paired with an inexplicable memory loss. Synthesizing the fields of psychiatry and the dynamics of the disorder with its influential representation in American fiction, the study researches how psychiatry and fiction mutually shaped a mysterious syndrome and how this reciprocal process created a genre fiction of its own that persists until today in a very distinct self-referential mode.

    This book focuses on the pivotal role which space and spatiality assume in plot and narrative discourse of contemporary U.S.-American literary narratives. Embarking from a new, spatialized approach to cultural history and particularly narrative theory that might also prove useful for neighboring philologies, Marcel Thoene hypothesizes that the canon of novels selected represents a dialectic of simultaneous affirmation and subversion of the American space myth. This results in an integrative and emancipatory function of space reflecting the current dynamic toward a more transcultural, diverse and conflictive post-national U.S.-American society.

    Bryan M. Santin examines over a half-century of intersection between American fiction and postwar conservatism. He traces the shifting racial politics of movement conservatism to argue that contemporary perceptions of literary form and aesthetic value are intrinsically connected to the rise of the American Right. Instead of casting postwar conservatives as cynical hustlers or ideological fanatics, Santin shows how the long-term rhetorical shift in conservative notions of literary value and prestige reveal an aesthetic antinomy between high culture and low culture. This shift, he argues, registered and mediated the deeper foundational antinomy structuring postwar conservatism itself: the stable social order of traditionalism and the creative destruction of free-market capitalism. Postwar conservatives produced, in effect, an ambivalent double register in the discourse of conservative literary taste that sought to celebrate neo-aristocratic manifestations of cultural capital while condemning newer, more progressive manifestations revolving around racial and ethnic diversity.
