Abstract

This book brings together essays by an international group of scholars and artists, focusing on live performance inspired by living in exile, or created by exiled artists. Bringing together a range of perspectives to examine the full impact of political, socio-economic or psychological experiences of exile, Performing Exile: Foreign Bodies presents an inclusive mix of established and emerging voices from varied cultural and geographic affiliations. Chapters blend close critical analysis and autoethnography to document and interrogate performances and the political, religious, economic and cultural contexts that inform them. With a foreword by Yana Meerzon, and featuring essays on artists of Mexican, Korean-American, Lebanese-Quebecois, Spanish, Azerbaijani and Canadian Aboriginal origin, to name a few, Performing Exile is truly diverse.

Abstract

Australia has been seen as a land of both punishment and refuge. Australian literature has explored these controlling alternatives, and vividly rendered the landscape on which they transpire. Twentieth-century writers left Australia to see the world; now Australia's distance no longer provides sanctuary. But today the global perspective has arrived with a vengeance. In Contemporary Australian Literature: A World Not Yet Dead, Nicholas Birns tells the story of how novelists, poets and critics, from Patrick White to Hannah Kent, from Alexis Wright to Christos Tsiolkas, responded to this condition. With rancour, concern and idealism, modern Australian literature conveys a tragic sense of the past yet an abiding vision of the way forward. Birns paints a vivid picture of a rich Australian literary voice- one not lost to the churning of global markets, but in fact given new life by it.

Abstract

"During the period of his American exile in the 1930s and 1940s, the German author Thomas Mann became one of the most prominent anti-fascists in the United States, and in so doing forever transformed our understanding of what a modern writer is and should be doing"--

Abstract

Many writers today could say: my French does not have a childhood. Exploring contemporary autobiographical texts deemed significant, this essay proposes a mapping of translingual poetics and shows what the practice of a foreign language does to self-writing. Is it because our era, made up of stories of exile and change of language, is looking for bards that some of these authors have been pushed to the front of the literary scene? At a time when literature is being considered on a world scale and people are wondering about the place of French and the idea of {u200B}{u200B}the national, let us see what is happening in the central but still unexplored corpus of their Memoirs of Beyond Language.

Abstract

Aussitôt après la prise de pouvoir par Hitler, en janvier 1933, la majeure partie des intellectuels allemands (scientifiques, philosophes, écrivains, artistes) quitte le pays. Les raisons de cet exil, essentiellement vers d'autres pays d'Europe jusqu'en 1939, sont le plus souvent non pas raciales, mais politiques. Pour certains, il y va de la vie ou de la mort. L'Allemagne n'en continue pas moins à publier des livres, à jouer des pièces, à donner des concerts, des cours à l'Université etc... Parmi les intellectuels restés au pays figurent des noms célèbres : le poète Gottfried Benn, le philosophe Martin Heidegger ou le Prix Nobel de littérature Gerhart Hauptmann. Qu'est-ce qui pousse ces intellectuels à se mettre au service des nazis : une conviction politique, le simple l'opportunisme ? Les exilés observent avec une extrême attention les faits et gestes de leurs collègues en Allemagne afin de tracer une frontière symbolique entre les « véritables intellectuels » et les « traîtres ». À relever d'un discours d'une extrême sévérité, plus tard adoucie il est vrai par une plus juste compréhension, la condamnation des « renégats » pose la question des modalités de la lutte contre un discours totalitaire : est-il possible de s'opposer à un langage perverti, sans tomber dans les travers mêmes que l'on dénonce ? La question se double d'une autre : peut-on, de l'extérieur et sur des critères uniquement politiques, juger de qui est un traître et qui est un opposant ? Le livre éclaire ici le problème de la culpabilité dans un régime totalitaire.

Abstract

Gare du Nord is een boek over het verlangen. Rond 1900 trokken almaar nieuwe generaties kunstenaars uit de Lage Landen naar Parijs, de onbetwiste culturele hoofdstad van de wereld. In de Ville Lumière zochten zij inspiratie en succes. Hun brandstof: steile ambitie, jeugdige overmoed, geilheid en honger naar wat nieuw was - ongezien en ongehoord. In ateliers en salons maar evengoed in de cafés op de boulevards of in de zoele geur van de metrostations leerden zij over het leven. En passant vonden zij mee de moderniteit uit.Eric Min borstelt een groepsportret van schilders, schrijvers en fotografen waarin figuren als Van Gogh en Rops, Wiertz en Verhaeren, Mondriaan en Masereel, Simenon en Claus het gezelschap krijgen van tijdgenoten voor wie de geschiedenis minder aardig was. Wie kent Marthe Donas nog, of Théo Reeder? Camille Platteel? André Baillon? Ed van der Elsken? Elly Overzier?Het decor: een metropool als een kijkdoos. Een toverlantaarn. Een stad waar het licht nooit uitgaat.
