    Born in the village of Matombo, Lwezi finds herself questioning the traditions and culture which seem to favour men at the detriment of women, Girls are excluded from school and are groomed for marriage from a very young age. Women are seen as sub humans who are born to serve men. At initiation school, as she prepares for her transition from childhood to womanhood, Lwezi makes a thoughtless sacrifice in an attempt to save her friend. She's taken to Chief Nxumalo's homestead to answer for her crime in front of the Dale (Gathering of Elders). Circumstances take an unexpected twist and she finds herself tangled deeper into the Nxumalo web of secrets. She's offered a deal she cannot refuse. Will she choose the city and the liberation it offers or will she stay in the patriarchal society she knows and save those that need her help?

    "This book offers a new English translation of Musaeus' poem Hero and Leander, with the original Greek on the facing page, a substantial introduction and a detailed commentary. The tragic romance of Hero and Leander has had and still has a great appeal, inspiring countless writers, painters, sculptors, musicians. The introduction aims at situating the poem within its literary tradition and cultural context as well as at drawing its major themes and describing the salient features of its style. Because Hero and Leander enjoyed an immense and uninterrupted popularity, the introduction also devotes a large section to the poem's reception in literature, which crosses paths with the reception of the other main ancient poetic treatment of the legend, Ovid's Heroides 18 and 19. The commentary, which follows the Greek text and its translation, is addressed to a variety of readers: the student and the scholar of Greek literature, as well as those of other literatures in which the poem has been inspirational. This work has no precedent in the English language. This new translation will be of interest to students and scholars of Greek and Late Antique literature, as well as those working on mythology and classical reception"--

    ger: Klänge weisen in postkolonialer Literatur eine politische Bedeutungsdimension auf. Die literarische Imagination von Klängen hebt verschiedene Machtkonfigurationen in Texten hervor, die einen postkolonialen Hintergrund haben, indem Unterdrückung und Herrschaft, aber auch Widerstand auf einer klanglichen Ebene veranschaulicht werden. Die Dissertation untersucht die politischen Aspekte literarischer Klänge (verstanden als intermodale Referenzen) anhand des Konzepts von Gewalt: Literarische Klänge vermitteln unterschiedliche Gewaltformen (etwa interpersonelle, strukturelle oder epistemische Gewalt) und machen Konflikte durch Themen und Motive greifbar, in denen Hör-Wissen reflektiert und erweitert wird. Die close readings der Fallstudien konzentrieren sich auf narrative, rhetorische und andere literarische Merkmale bei der Inszenierung von Klang und werden von semiotischen Analysen ergänzt, die die Verbindung zwischen Klängen und Gewalt verdeutlichen. Die semiotischen Begriffe werden angewandt, um zu bestimmen, wie sich ein literarischer Klang (als Zeichen) auf Gewalt als dessen Objekt bezieht.Das Korpus besteht aus vier AutorInnen aus verschiedenen sprachlichen und kulturellen Kontexten: Chingiz Aitmatov, J. M. Coetzee, Frankétienne und Jean Rhys. Ihre anglophonen, frankophonen und russophonen Texte sind Gegenstand der Fallstudien zu postkolonialer Literatur. Die Romane problematisieren die Verschränkung zwischen Klangkultur, imperialer Ordnung und kolonialem Erbe, indem sie auf Klangumgebungen, Hörpraktiken und Modi der Klangerzeugung fokussieren. Ein Vergleich zwischen den Texten stellt die Gemeinsamkeiten und Unterschiede hinsichtlich ihrer Klangimaginationen und Inszenierungen von Klängen heraus.Die Dissertation stellt einen Beitrag zu den Literary Sound Studies dar, wobei das Forschungsinteresse an der Schnittstelle zwischen Komparatistik, Sound Studies und Postcolonial Studies liegt. eng: The sensory domain of sound is imbued with political meaning in postcolonial prose fiction. The literary imagination of sound articulates different configurations of power, accentuating sonic manifestations of oppression and domination, but also of resistance and subversion within texts that have a postcolonial background. The thesis examines the political significance of literary sounds (conceptualized as intermodal references) on the basis of the concept of violence: Literary sounds convey varying forms of violence (such as interpersonal, structural and epistemic violence) and make conflicts more palpable by illustrating them through themes and motifs that reflect and also creatively expand sonic knowledge. In the case studies, close-readings focus on narrative, rhetorical and other literary features in the staging of sound, complemented by semiotic analyses of the connection between sound and violence. The semiotic terminology is applied to determine how, as signs, literary sounds relate to violence as their object.The corpus consists of novels by four authors from different linguistic and cultural contexts: Chingiz Aitmatov, J. M. Coetzee, Frankétienne and Jean Rhys. Their Anglophone, Francophone and Russophone texts are the objects of the case studies on postcolonial literature. The chosen novels problematize the entanglement of sound culture with imperial orders and colonial legacies: By exploring auditory environments, listening practices and modes of sound production, they demonstrate a particular aural sensitivity that adds a violent dimension to literary sounds. A comparison of the analyzed texts establishes the similarities and differences in regard to their sonic imaginations and how they stage sounds.Contributing to the research of literary sound studies, the main interest of this thesis lies at the intersection of comparative literary studies, sound studies and postcolonial studies.

    From Struwwelpeter to Peter Rabbit, from Alice to Bilbo—this collection of essays shows how the classics of children’s literature have been transformed across languages, genres, and diverse media forms. This book argues that translation regularly involves transmediation—the telling of a story across media and vice versa—and that transmediation is a specific form of translation. Beyond the classic examples, the book also takes the reader on a worldwide tour, and examines, among other things, the role of Soviet science fiction in North Korea, the ethical uses of Lego Star Wars in a Brazilian context, and the history of Latin translation in children’s literature. Bringing together scholars from more than a dozen countries and language backgrounds, these cross-disciplinary essays focus on regularly overlooked transmediation practices and terminology, such as book cover art, trans-sensory storytelling, écart, enfreakment, foreignizing domestication, and intra-cultural transformation
