Die in den Kulturwissenschaften intensiv geführte Debatte um Weltliteratur kreist immer wieder um Fragen des Prozess- und Konstruktionscharakters weltliterarischer Kanonisierung. Um Aufschluss darüber zu erhalten, welche Faktoren dazu beitragen, ob ein Autor oder eine Autorin als Weltliteratur kanonisiert wird, ist die Arbeit am konkreten Material von zentraler Bedeutung. Die vorliegende Studie widmet sich in diesem Zusammenhang insbesondere den Bruchstellen, die anhand der verzögerten Weltliteratur-Werdung der brasilianischen Autorin Clarice Lispector (1920-1977) anhand von Dokumenten zu Übersetzungs- und Zirkulationsprozessen sichtbar werden. Erst im 21. Jahrhundert erfährt das literarische Werk Lispectors breite internationale Anerkennung, nachdem es zuvor immer wieder in Vergessenheit geraten war. Welche Rolle spielte dabei das brasilianische Portugiesisch als Ausgangssprache, welche die so eigene Ästhetik Clarice Lispectors im Übersetzungskontext und welche ihre Rolle als Frau? In der Analyse des komplexen Zusammenwirkens solcher Faktoren ermöglicht der Band eine neue Perspektive auf die Problematiken weltliterarischer Kanonisierungsprozesse im 20. und beginnenden 21. Jahrhundert. It has only been in the 21st century that the literary oeuvre of the Brazilian author Clarice Lispector (1920-1977) has received international recognition, after being repeatedly forgotten in the past. This volume traces its belated transformation into world literature using specific materials from the history of Lispector's translation and reception, providing a new perspective on the problems of canonization in the field of world literature.

Although Franz Brentano was one of the most influential turn-of-the-century philosophers, he, like Ludwig Wittgenstein, published little but left a large philosophical legacy. This study examines the biographical and theoretical reasons for Brentano's reluctance to publish and offers an overview of the checkered history of his philosophical legacy. Franz Brentano (1838-1917) gilt als einer der einflussreichsten Philosophen an der Wende vom 19. zum 20. Jahrhundert. Dennoch sind die Philosophiehistoriker noch zu keinem endgültigen Urteil über seine Bedeutung gelangt. Der Grund hierfür ist vor allem darin zu suchen, dass Brentanos Werk bis heute nur unzureichend zugänglich ist, was vor allem daran liegt, dass der größte Teil davon nur in handschriftlicher Form existiert: Nach seinem unvollendet gebliebenen Hauptwerk, der Psychologie vom empirischen Standpunkt, hat Brentano keine größere Arbeit mehr veröffentlicht. Im ersten Teil analysiert Binder die Gründe für Brentanos zurückhaltende Publikationstätigkeit, wobei einerseits der konfliktbehaftete biographische Hintergrund und die komplexe Persönlichkeit des Philosophen, andererseits theoretische Probleme, eine psychologische Einheitswissenschaft zu formulieren, die ihn an der Fertigstellung seines Hauptwerks scheitern ließen, im Vordergrund stehen. Im zweiten Teil verfolgt der Autor die wechselhafte Geschichte von Brentanos philosophischem Nachlass, die ihrerseits die Rezeption seiner philosophischen Theorien stark behindert hat.

Hauptbeschreibung Sustained, comparative Synoptic studies do not stand alone methodologically in the humanities, but belong to a more general trend within cultural studies as well as in the humanities more broadly. Textual interpretation involves approaching specific texts composed more often than not by individual authors. In these texts, however, are embedded a myriad of conscious and unconscious relationships to historical and contemporary events, people, and other texts likewise connected historically and contemporaneously. In-depth understanding of a text evolves, therefore, al

"The widespread opinion is that Northrop Frye's influence reached its zenith in the 1960s and 1970s, at which point he became obsolete, his work having been buried in obscurity. This almost universal opinion is summed up in Terry Eagleton's 1983 rhetorical question, "Who now reads Frye?" In The Reception of Northrop Frye, Robert D. Denham catalogues what has been written about Frye - books, articles, translations, dissertations and theses, and reviews - in order to demonstrate that the attention Frye's work has received from the beginning has progressed at a geomantic rate. Denham also explores what we can discover once we have a fairly complete record of Frye's reception in front of us - such as Hayden White's theory of emplotments applied to historical writing and Byron Almén's theory of musical narrative. The sheer quantity of what has been written about Frye reveals that the only valid response to Eagleton's rhetorical question is "a very large and growing number," the growth being not incremental but exponential."--

This two-part volume contains a comprehensive collection of original studies by well-known scholars focusing on the Bible’s wide-ranging reception in world cinema. It is organized into sections examining the rich cinematic afterlives of selected characters from the Hebrew Bible and New Testament; considering issues of biblical reception across a wide array of film genres, ranging from noir to anime; featuring directors, from Lee Chang-dong to the Coen brothers, whose body of work reveals an enduring fascination with biblical texts and motifs; and offering topical essays on cinema’s treatment of selected biblical themes (e.g., lament, apocalyptic), particular interpretive lenses (e.g., feminist interpretation, queer theory), and windows into biblical reception in a variety of world cinemas (e.g., Indian, Israeli, and Third Cinema). This handbook is intended for scholars of the Bible, religion, and film as well as for a wider general audience.
