    Die neuere ukrainische Literatur nimmt nicht nur in der westeuropäischen Literaturkritik sondern auch in der slavistischen Literaturwissenschaft seit jeher eine stark vernachlässigte Stellung ein. Die vorliegende Arbeit versteht sich als ein Versuch, das Problem der zweisprachigen russisch-ukrainischen Autoren anhand der Werke einer Autorin unter einem grundlegenden Aspekt - der inhaltlichen Gestaltung - anzureißen; sie beschränkt sich daher auf eine Gegenüberstellung des Grundtypus der russischen und ukrainischen Erzählungen, da solch ein Vergleich die Frage der unterschiedlichen sprach-und literarhistorischen Grundlage sowie des unterschiedlichen Leserpublikums besonders gut beleuchten.

    Die Deutsche Dostojewskij-Gesellschaft (DDG) verfolgt das Ziel, das Werk Fjodor Michajlowitsch Dostojewskijs (1821-1881), des weltweit immer noch wirkmächtigsten russischen Autors, in Deutschland zu verbreiten und über aktuelle Trends vor allem der deutschsprachigen Dostojewskij-Rezeption zu informieren. Die Gesellschaft hat eine wichtige Scharnierfunktion zwischen Fachwissenschaft (Russischer bzw. Slawischer Philologie) einerseits und dem anhaltend großen Kreis deutschsprachiger Dostojewskij-Leserinnen und -Leser. Zur Zielgruppe gehören Hochschulinstitute und -dozenten ebenso wie Theologen, Psychologen, Philosophen, Mediziner, Gymnasiallehrer, Volkhochschuldozenten und andere interessierte Laien. Das Jahrbuch der DDG dient in erster Hinsicht der Publikation der Vorträge der Jahrestagungen der Gesellschaft, die stets einem bestimmten Themenkreis gewidmet sind. Daneben erscheinen in ihm aber auch neuere wissenschaftliche oder populärwissenschaftliche Abhandlungen zum Thema des jeweiligen Bandes oder zu Dostojewskij allgemein. In den fast drei Jahrzehnten seines Bestehens konnte sich das Jahrbuch als Forum der deutschsprachigen Dostojewskij-Forschung etablieren, das auch von Fachwissenschaftlern geschätzt und als Medium genutzt wird.

    East German science fiction enabled its authors to create a subversive space in another time and place. One of the country’s most popular genres, it outlined futures that often went beyond the party’s official version. Many utopian stories provided a corrective vision, intended to preserve and improve upon East German communism. This study is an introduction to East German science fiction. The book begins with a chapter on German science fiction before 1949. It then spans the entire existence of the country (1949-1990) and outlines key topics essential to understanding the genre: popular literature, socialist realism, censorship, fandom, and international science fiction. An in-depth discussion addresses notions of high and low literature, elements of the fantastic and utopia as critical narrative strategies, ideology and realism in East German literature, gender, and the relation between literature and science. Through a close textual analysis of three science fiction novels, the author expands East German literary history to include science fiction as a valuable source for developing a multi-faceted understanding of the country’s short history. Finally, an epilogue notes new titles and developments since the fall of the Berlin Wall.

    In the story of the three baseball umpires, two novice umpires compete in boasting how they respect «truth» and the way things «really» are. One says, «I call them the way I see them»; the other, trying to trump this remark, responds, «I call them the way they are». Then enters the third, most seasoned umpire, saying, «They aren’t, until I call them».
    This book deals with two widely argued issues in literature criticism today, performativity and subjectivity. How do people become who they are? What scripts do they follow when they «do» gender, race, and sexuality? Tying into speech act theories and subjectivity theories, as well as gender, race, and sexuality studies, the author explores – through the close reading of several American texts – the many ways words make «things» in literature.

    Venetian playwright and pioneer of modern theatre Carlo Goldoni (1707-1793) led a ‘double life’ as a librettist, authoring nearly as many libretti as comedies- libretti which, born from the same mind and the same hand that brought forth his famous, and famously controversial, overhaul of the practices of comic theatre, could not
    but push the limits of the standing tradition to open a new chapter in opera history. Goldoni became one of the first to give shape to the dramma giocoso per musica, an innovative, realistic, and enduring new genre with intimate connections to prose comedy that met with overwhelming international success, becoming the foundation for the works of future generations, including W. A. Mozart and his Italian librettist Lorenzo da Ponte. Perhaps because of his stature and influence as a comic playwright, Goldoni has rarely been considered as an innovator in the musical sphere. This study aims to shed new light on his primary role in the evolution of Classical opera, and on the legacy of his innovations in the European musical tradition.

    Leskovs Ruhm als Schriftsteller liegt vor allem in den Besonderheiten seiner Sprache begründet. Daß sich eine Untersuchung der sprachlichen Eigenarten von Leskovs Werk lohnt, beweist die Beachtung, die seine Sprache in fast allen Literaturgeschichten findet. Auch die starke Polemik um die Eigentümlichkeiten des Leskovschen Stils, der von Maksim Gor'kij der jungen Schriftstellergeneration zum Studium empfohlen, von dem Symbolisten Volynskij jedoch abgelehnt wurde, regt dazu an, diese Sprache zu untersuchen.

    Est-il possible pour les héroïnes de Sex and the City de réconcilier féminité et féminisme ? Les déceptions amoureuses d'Ally Mc Beal traduisent-elle un modèle romantique à bout de souffle ? Reflet des évolutions de la société, la fiction américaine met en scène idéologies, fantasme de l'amour et conflits entre hommes et femmes. Passant au crible soixante années de fiction télé américaine, Céline Morin analyse les relations amoureuses et les inégalités de genre en ouvrant un dialogue avec les théories féministes et une sociologie de la conjugalité et de l'individualisme.

    Le journaliste scientifique a-t-il simplement vocation à rendre compte des controverses ? Est-il un acteur à part dans ces débats ? Comment rend-il compte des conflits inhérents et de leur dimension « extra-scientifique » ? Comment fonctionne la chaîne d’information scientifique face à de tels enjeux économiques et politiques ? Les relations entre acteurs, notamment au sein des rédactions, sont-elles reconfigurées en situation de controverse ?

    Pour répondre à ces questions générales, trois études de ces controverses sont ici ciblées, renvoyant à des préoccupations citoyennes majeures : le changement climatique, les perturbateurs endocriniens et les organismes génétiquement modifiés.

    Une analyse qui permet de mieux comprendre les controverses, les pratiques des journalistes scientifiques et leur place particulière dans une profession en mutation.

    Cet ouvrage souhaite montrer la richesse d’une ouverture géographique et thématique des recherches urbaines actuelles en présentant celles qui prennent en considération les villes situées en dehors de l’aire occidentale. Il donne la voix à de jeunes chercheurs et praticiens originaires de six pays et de trois continents qui, par leurs réflexions engagées, proposent de corriger les perceptions souvent négatives, voire catastrophiques, de l’urbanisation non occidentale. En partant du principe que tout espace urbain est aussi banal que singulier, ils aident à décentrer le regard et à envisager sérieusement l’importance de l’altérité dans la construction des représentations collectives. Ouvert sur le monde, donc, cet ouvrage montre tout l’intérêt de diversifier les approches théoriques et empiriques en urbanisme, dont le fort ancrage nord-américain ou européen empêche souvent de rendre compte des multiples réalités des villes de la planète.

    This article reflects on the relationship between the media and the construction of publics, taking these to be based on identities and the processes of creating identities activated in concrete, well-defined contexts. This relationship, which is complex and defined by power dynamics, allows spaces, processes of citizen-ship, and the visibility and invisibility of causes, projects and trajectories to be defined. The central question which serves as the starting point for these reflections is the following: what contribution does the media, with its autonomous operational logic, make towards reflections on citizenship? Who and what does it include and exclude? I intend to approach the specter of theoretical positions on the role played by the media in the production of citizenship from the basis of the polysemic notion of public sphere. Are we demanding too much of the media? Does it real-ly set the agenda for what is relevant in a national and international context?

    Planning is not a technical and value free activity. Planning is an overt political system that creates both winners and losers. The Planning Polity is a book that considers the politics of development and decision-making, and political conflicts between agencies and institutions within British town and country planning. The focus of assessment is how British planning has been formulated since the early 1990s, and provides an in-depth and revealing assessment of both the Major and Blair governments' terms of office. The book will prove to be an invaluable guide to the British planning system today and the political demands on it. Students and activists within urban and regional studies, planning, political science and government, environmental studies, urban and rural geography, development, surveying and planning, will all find the book to be an essential companion to their work.

    What implications are applications of new genetic technologies in biomedicine having on social identity in today’s society? New Genetics, New Identities, a wide-ranging multi-disciplinary volume in the CESAGen Genetics & Society Book series, presents not only theoretical reflection but also empirical case studies drawn from an international array of authors. Including the highly controversial areas of reproductive technologies and use of human embryos in biomedical research, other key features include: a fresh analysis of a wide-range of social and political concerns in the development of new social identities examinations of the social implications of identity formation as a result from advances in genetic technologies from a number of perspectives both locally and globally resources of a wide range of social science disciplines to discuss significant sociological, anthropological, political and ethical issues. This superb collection is an essential informative read for postgraduates and academics in the fields of sociology, anthropology and scientific technologies giving a comparative approach to complex issues surrounding the social implications of these advances in a period of rapid social change.

    Crime and the fear of crime are issues high in public concern and on political agendas in most developed countries. This book takes these issues and relates them to the contribution that urban planners and participative planning processes can make in response to these problems. Its focus is thus on the extent to which crime opportunities can be prevented or reduced through the design, planning and management of the built environment. The perspective of the book is transatlantic and comparative, not only because ideas and inspiration in this and many other fields increasingly move between countries but also because there is a great deal of relevant theoretical material and practice in both the USA and the UK which has not previously been pulled together in this systemic manner.

    By examining the fiction of three women modernists--Willa Cather, Gertrude Stein, and Nella Larsen--this book complicates binary paradigms of national, gender, and ethnic identities in the interwar period. In place of essentializing categories of identity, Jessica Rabin explores the liberating and dislocating ramifications of using multiple subject positions as a means of representing identity. While these three authors have been studied in non-intersecting categories (pioneer literature, high modernism, and the Harlem Renaissance, respectively), Jessica Rabin traces their similarities, showing how the dispersal of fixed identities are facilitated by the language of fiction.

    Spiritual Shakespeares is the first book to explore the scope for reading Shakespeare spiritually in the light of contemporary theory and current world events. Ewan Fernie has brought together an exciting cast of critics in order to respond to the ‘religious turn’ in recent literary theory and to the spiritualized politics of terrorism and the ‘War on Terror’. Exploring a genuinely new perspective within Shakespeare Studies, the volume suggests that experiencing the spiritual intensities of the plays could lead us back to dramatic intensity as such. It tests spirituality from a political perspective, as well as subjecting politics to an unusual spiritual critique. Amongst its controversial and provocative arguments is the idea that a consideration of spirituality might point the way forward for materialist criticism. Reaching across and beyond literary studies to offer challenging and powerful contributions from leading scholars, this book

    Looking at a diverse series of authors--Herman Melville, Richard Henry Dana, Jr., Mark Twain, Charles Warren Stoddard, and Jack London--"The Colonizer Abroad" claims that as the U.S. emerged as a colonial power in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, the literature of the sea became a literature of imperialism. This book applies postcolonial theory to the travel writing of some of America's best-known authors, revealing the ways in which America's travel fiction and nonfiction have both reflected and shaped society.

    Der schriftliche Nachlaß Marianne Werefkins offenbart ein bedeutendes theoretisches und kritisches Talent, das der künstlerischen Begabung der Malerin nicht nachsteht. Da ihre Gedanken zur Ästhetik eine auffallende Verwandtschaft mit den Theorien des russischen Symbolismus zeigen, erscheint eine vergleichende Untersuchung begründet.
