Rather than see love as a natural form of affection, Love As Human Freedom sees love as a practice that changes over time through which new social realities are brought into being. Love brings about, and helps us to explain, immense social-historical shifts—from the rise of feminism and the emergence of bourgeois family life, to the struggles for abortion rights and birth control and the erosion of a gender-based division of labor. Drawing on Hegel, Paul A. Kottman argues that love generates and explains expanded possibilities for freely lived lives. Through keen interpretations of the best known philosophical and literary depictions of its topic—including Shakespeare, Plato, Nietzsche, Ovid, Flaubert, and Tolstoy—his book treats love as a fundamental way that we humans make sense of temporal change, especially the inevitability of death and the propagation of life.

Long description: 'Postkolonialismus und Kanon' – der Band erhellt einen blinden Fleck: 'Theoretische Studien' beziehen sich auf die Kriterien für einen evaluativen Umgang mit Literatur in postkolonialer Perspektive, eine Kritik der doppelten Standards in den Postkolonialen Studien, das Spannungsfeld von Kanon, Weltliteratur, Interkulturalität und Postkolonialismus und die Exklusionsmechanismen des literarischen Kanons. Das Spektrum der 'Fallstudien' reicht von der Ästhetik des Erhabenen über den Faszinationsraum: ›Inneres Afrika‹ im 19. Jahrhundert, den literarischen Antisemitismus, den binneneuropäischen Kolonialismus und den Postkolonialismus-Boom in der späten DDR-Literatur bis zur aktuellen deutschsprachigen afrikanischen Migrationsliteratur. Die Beiträge gehen zurück auf eine Tagung, die der Trierer Sonderforschungsbereich 600 'Armut und Fremdheit. Wandel von Inklusions- und Exklusionsformen von der Antike bis zur Gegenwart' gemeinsam mit dem DFG-Netzwerk 'Postkoloniale Studien' veranstaltet hat. Biographical note: Herbert Uerlings, Professor für Neuere deutsche Literaturwissenschaft an der Universität Trier, Sprecher des SFB 600 Fremdheit und Armut. Seit Poetiken der Interkulturalität (1997) zahlreiche Veröffentlichungen im Bereich der Interkulturellen Germanistik/Postkolonialen Studien. Iulia-Karin Patrut, Dr., Mitarbeiterin im Teilprojekt Literarische Repräsentation von ‚Zigeunern‘ im SFB 600 Fremdheit und Armut; Veröffentlichungen im Bereich der Postkolonialen Studien.
