    Contestations over the meaning and practice of sexuality have become increasingly central to cultural self-definition and critical debates over issues of identity, citizenship and the definition of humanity itself. In an era when a religious authority can declare lesbians antihuman while some nations legalise same-sex marriage and are becoming increasingly tolerant of a variety of non-normative sexualities, it is hardly surprising that science fiction, in turn, takes up the task of imagining a diverse range of queer and not-so-queer futures. The essays in Queer Universes investigate both contemporary and historical practices of representing sexualities and genders in science fiction literature. Queer Universes opens with Wendy Pearson’s award-winning essay on reading sf queerly and goes on to include discussions about ‘sextrapolation’ in New Wave science fiction, ‘stray penetration’ in William Gibson’s cyberpunk fiction, the queering of nature in ecofeminist science fiction, and the radical challenges posed to conventional science fiction in the work of important writers such as Samuel R. Delany, Ursula K. Le Guin, and Joanna Russ. In addition, Queer Universes offers an interview with Nalo Hopkinson and a conversation about queer lives and queer fictions by authors Nicola Griffith and Kelley Eskridge

    Historically and contemporarily, politically and literarily, Haiti has long been relegated to the margins of the so-called 'New World.' Marked by exceptionalism, the voices of some of its most important writers have consequently been muted by the geopolitical realities of the nation's fraught history. In Haiti Unbound, Kaiama L. Glover offers a close look at the works of three such writers: the Haitian Spiralists Frankétienne, Jean-Claude Fignolé, and René Philoctète. While Spiralism has been acknowledged by scholars and regional writer-intellectuals alike as a crucial contribution to the French-speaking Caribbean literary tradition, the Spiralist ethic-aesthetic not yet been given the sustained attention of a full-length study. Glover's book represents the first effort in any language to consider the works of the three Spiralist authors both individually and collectively, and so fills an astonishingly empty place in the assessment of postcolonial Caribbean aesthetics. Touching on the role and destiny of Haiti in the Americas, Haiti Unbound engages with long-standing issues of imperialism and resistance culture in the transatlantic world. Glover's timely project emphatically articulates Haiti's regional and global centrality, combining vital 'big picture' reflections on the field of postcolonial studies with elegant close-reading-based analyses of the philosophical perspective and creative practice of a distinctively Haitian literary phenomenon. Most importantly perhaps, the book advocates for the inclusion of three largely unrecognized voices in the disturbingly fixed roster of writer-intellectuals that have thus far interested theorists of postcolonial (Francophone) literature. Providing insightful and sophisticated blueprints for the reading and teaching of the Spiralists' prose fiction, Haiti Unbound will serve as a point of reference for the works of these authors and for the singular socio-political space out of and within which they write

    Race and Antiracism in Black British and British Asian Literature offers the first extended exploration of the cultural impact of the politics of race and antiracism in Britain through focussing on a selection of recent novels by black British and British Asian writers. The study argues that an understanding of how race and ethnicity function in contemporary Britain can only be gained through attention to antiracism: the politics of opposing discrimination that manifest at the level of state legislation, within local and national activism, and inside the scholarly exploration of race. It is antiracism that now most strongly conditions the emergence of racial categorisations but also of racial identities and models of behaviour. This sense of how antiracism may determine the form and content of both political debate and individual identity is traced through an examination of ten novels by black British and British Asian writers. These authors range from the well known to the critically neglected: works by Monica Ali, Nadeem Aslam, Fred D’Aguiar, Ferdinand Dennis, Hanif Kureishi, Gautam Malkani, Caryl Phillips, Mike Phillips, Zadie Smith, and Meera Syal are carefully read to explore the impacts of antiracism. These literary studies are grouped into three main themes, each of which is central to the direction of racial political identities over the last two decades in Britain: the use of the continent of Africa as a symbolic focus for black political culture; the changing forms of Muslim culture in Britain; and the emergence of a multiculturalist ethos based around the notion of ethnic communities

    The purpose of this book is to explore the ways in which the London Underground/ Tube was ‘mapped’ by a number of writers from George Gissing to Virginia Woolf. From late Victorian London to the end of the World War II, ‘underground writing’ created an imaginative world beneath the streets of London. The real subterranean railway was therefore re-enacted in number of ways in writing, including as Dantean Underworld or hell, as gateway to a utopian future, as psychological looking- glass or as place of safety and security. The book is a chronological study from the opening of the first underground in the 1860s to its role in WW2. Each chapter explores perspectives on the underground in a number of writers, starting with George Gissing in the 1880s, moving through the work of H. G. Wells and into the writing of the 1920s & 1930s including Virginia Woolf and George Orwell. It concludes with its portrayal in the fiction, poetry and art (including Henry Moore) of WW2. The approach takes a broadly cultural studies perspective, crossing the boundaries of transport history, literature and London/ urban studies. It draws mainly on fiction but also uses poetry, art, journals, postcards and posters to illustrate. It links the actual underground trains, tracks and stations to the metaphorical world of ‘underground writing’ and places the writing in a social/ political context

    Race and Antiracism in Black British and British Asian Literature offers the first extended exploration of the cultural impact of the politics of race and antiracism in Britain through focussing on a selection of recent novels by black British and British Asian writers. The study argues that an understanding of how race and ethnicity function in contemporary Britain can only be gained through attention to antiracism: the politics of opposing discrimination that manifest at the level of state legislation, within local and national activism, and inside the scholarly exploration of race. It is antiracism that now most strongly conditions the emergence of racial categorisations but also of racial identities and models of behaviour. This sense of how antiracism may determine the form and content of both political debate and individual identity is traced through an examination of ten novels by black British and British Asian writers. These authors range from the well known to the critically neglected: works by Monica Ali, Nadeem Aslam, Fred D’Aguiar, Ferdinand Dennis, Hanif Kureishi, Gautam Malkani, Caryl Phillips, Mike Phillips, Zadie Smith, and Meera Syal are carefully read to explore the impacts of antiracism. These literary studies are grouped into three main themes, each of which is central to the direction of racial political identities over the last two decades in Britain: the use of the continent of Africa as a symbolic focus for black political culture; the changing forms of Muslim culture in Britain; and the emergence of a multiculturalist ethos based around the notion of ethnic communities

    Main description: Although fictional characters have long dominated the reception of literature, films, television programs, comics, and other media products, only recently have they begun to attract their due attention in literary and media theory. The book systematically surveys today's diverse and at times conflicting theoretical perspectives on fictional character, spanning research on topics such as the differences between fictional characters and real persons, the ontological status of characters, the strategies of their representation and characterization, the psychology of their reception, as well as their specific forms and constellations in - and across - different media, from the book to the internet

    Main description: Trotz ihrer Dominanz für die Rezeption von Literatur, Film, Comic und anderen Medien haben Figuren in der literatur- und medientheoretischen Diskussion lange Zeit ein Schattendasein geführt. Der vorliegende Band führt die inzwischen deutlich intensivierte Diskussion in den verschiedenen Bereichen erstmals zusammen und behandelt systematisch die unterschiedlichen Problemaspekte des Begriffs Figur, z.B. das Verhältnis von Figuren- zur Personenwahrnehmung, den ontologischen Status der Figur, die Strategien der Charakterisierung, Figurenkonstellationen. Außerdem enthält er Beiträge zur Figur im Comic, Lyrik, Computerspiel und anderen Medien

    Review text: "Alle Beiträge sind klar strukturiert. Die analytische Herangehensweise und entsprechende Sprache hinterlassen den Eindruck größter Klarheit."Kay Ziegenbalg in: www.literaturkritik.de/public/rezension.php

    Unter den bedeutenden Autoren der deutschsprachigen Romantik ist August Wilhelm Schlegel trotz seines immensen Einflusses einer der am wenigsten erforschten, und dies, obwohl er immer wieder als Zentralgestalt der Vermittlung zwischen den nationalen Kulturen Europas sowie einer Komparatistik avant la lettre gesehen wurde. Er gilt als der wichtigste Übersetzer (Shakespeare, Calderón, Ariost u.a.) unter den deutschen Romantikern und hat mit seinen Berliner (1801-1804) und den Wiener Vorlesungen (1808) nicht nur im deutschsprachigen Raum gewirkt, sondern auch die Romantiker-Generationen in anderen europäischen Ländern und den USA nachhaltig beeinflusst. Als Grenzgänger zwischen ‚Poesie‘ und ‚Wissen‘ hat Schlegel neben seinen Übersetzungen und seinen weniger rezipierten literarischen Texten eine enorme Anzahl kritischer und literaturtheoretischer Arbeiten sowie, als Begründer der deutschen Indologie, sprachwissenschaftlicher Werk hinterlassen. Anhand des immer noch nicht textkritisch erschlossenen Œuvres, der weit verzweigten Korrespondenz und der einschlägigen Rezeptionszeugnisse analysiert der Band die Bedeutung A.W. Schlegels als europäischem Kulturvermittler zwischen Orient und Okzident.

    Spätestens seit der Französischen Revolution geriet ‚Adel‘ als politisches Konzept in die Defensive. In den literarischen Texten wie auch in den Lebensläufen zahlreicher Autoren der Romantik ist der Adel dennoch erstaunlich präsent. Analysen zu Texten von Novalis, Tieck, Kleist, Brentano, Eichendorff u.a. erweisen, dass Bedeutungsaspekte von ‚Adel‘ wie ‚Spiel‘, ‚Anökonomie‘, ‚Rittertum‘, ‚Genealogie‘ (dem Adel zugeschriebene Praktiken also) zur Realisierung romantischer Transzendentalpoesie beitragen. An der Schwelle moderner Autorschaft bewegen sich zudem die Romantiker zwischen einem Adel der Geburt und einem Aristokratismus der Distanz zum literarischen Markt.Kulturhistorische und literaturwissenschaftliche Fragestellungen werden verschränkt zu einer ‚Kulturpoetik‘, einem „Studium der kollektiven Erzeugung unterschiedlicher kultureller Praktiken und d[er] Erforschung der Beziehungen zwischen ihnen“ (Stephen Greenblatt): In ihrer Summe konfigurieren literarische und andere neue Entwürfe von ‚Adel‘ „soziale Energie“ noch im Zeichen des sozialen Abstiegs und des langsamen Abschieds von einer jahrhundertealten Kultur.
