Abstract

Wie antwortet der Roman, die Leitgattung der modernen Literatur, auf die Krisen politischer Ordnungen und ökonomischer Systeme zwischen Französischer Revolution und Erstem Weltkrieg? Gegenstand der Interpretation sind französische und englische Romane zwischen dem Realismus und der Moderne. Die Fragestellung zielt auf die fiktionale Verarbeitung des kritischen Verhältnisses ethischer Orientierungen, politischer Instabilität und ökonomischer Transformation vor dem Hintergrund der neuen Formen gesellschaftlicher Differenzierung. Die vier ausgewählten Autoren (Honoré de Balzac, Gustave Flaubert, Joseph Conrad, Henry James) reagieren auf spezifische epochale Problemlagen. Sie stehen über die Grenzen der jeweiligen nationalliterarischen Traditionen hinaus in intensiven Wirkungs- und Rezeptionsverhältnissen, in denen sich die dynamische Evolution der Gattung Roman abbildet.

Abstract

Die Arbeit nutzt Hölderlins Frankreichaufenthalt 1802 zu einer Deutung der Gedichte Andenken und Der Ister , um auf dieser Grundlage zu einer Kritik Heideggers fortzuschreiten. Hölderlins Aufenthalt in Bordeaux im Winter und Frühjahr 1802 hat die Forschung seit jeher vor Rätsel gestellt. Das einzige Zeugnis, das neben spärlichen Briefen erhalten geblieben ist, bildet eines seiner berühmtesten Gedichte, Andenken , in dessen Mittelpunkt die Darstellung der Stadt und des Flusses Garonne steht. Auf dem gleichen Blatt hat Hölderlin ein zweites Gedicht begonnen: Der Ister. Die Arbeit stellt die Frage nach dem Zusammenhang der beiden Stromgedichte und wendet sich in einem zweiten Schritt der Auslegung zu, die sie in Vorlesungen Heideggers während des Krieges erfahren haben. Das Ziel besteht in einer Befreiung Hölderlins von den Vorgaben der Philosophie Heideggers.

Abstract

Blick ins Buch Zwischen Adventure und Resolution Island liegt (auf dem Ausschnitt einer Karte, der auf der Vorderseite dieses Buches zu sehen ist) Doubtfull Island - und dies kann als Allegorie des vorliegenden Buches dienen: Zur Debatte steht, wie sich, mit den Namen der Schiffe von James Cooks zweiter Weltumseglung, nach denen auch diese Inseln benannt sind, Abenteuer und Rasterung zueinander verhalten. Oder: Unter welchen Umständen können voyages - und zwar Reiseerzählungen mehr als Reisen ›selbst‹ - abenteuerlich sein? Diese Frage wird hier, nach einer ersten allgemeinen Sondierung, anhand von verschiedensten Texten, von Logbüchern bis zu Romanen, beantwortet, die vor, während und nach zwei Reisen hergestellt wurden: im Rahmen eben von Cooks zweiter Weltumseglung (1772-75) sowie im Gefolge von Herman Melvilles individuell unternommener, ausdrücklich mit Cooks Reisen kontrastierter Pazifikreise (1841-44)

Abstract

The third volume of the collected papers of the ICLA congress "The Many Languages of Comparative Literature" includes contributions that focus on the interplay between concepts of nation, national languages, and individual as well as collective identities. Because all literary communication happens within different kinds of power structures - linguistic, economic, political -, it often results in fascinating forms of hybridity. In the first of four thematic chapters, the papers investigate some of the ways in which discourses can establish modes of thinking, or how discourses are in turn controlled by active linguistic interventions, whether in the context of the patriarchy, war, colonialism, or political factions. The second thematic block is predominantly concerned with hybridity as an aspect of modern cultural identity, and the cultural and linguistic dimensions of domestic life and in society at large. Closely related, a third series of papers focuses on writers and texts analysed from the vantage points of exile and exophony, as well as theoretical contributions to issues of terminology and what it means to talk about transcultural phenomena. Finally, a group of papers sheds light on more overtly violent power structures, mechanisms of exclusion, Totalitarianism, torture, and censorship, but also resistance to these forms of oppression. In addition to these chapters, the volume also collects a number of thematically related group sections from the ICLA congress, preserving their original context.

Abstract

Comparative Literature is changing fast with methodologies, topics, and research interests emerging and remerging. The fifth volume of ICLA 2016 proceedings, Dialogues between Media, focuses on the current interest in inter-arts studies, as well as papers on comics studies, further testimony to the fact that comics have truly arrived in mainstream academic discourse."Adaptation" is a key term for the studies presented in this volume; various articles discuss the adaptation of literary source texts in different target media - cinematic versions, comics adaptations, TV series, theatre, and opera. Essays on the interplay of media beyond adaptation further show many of the strands that are woven into dialogues between media, and thus the expanding range of comparative literature.

Abstract

Das erste Buch, das sich umfassend und systematisch erzählten Träumen der Shoah in autobiografischen und fiktionalen Texten widmet. Untersucht werden Traumnotate, Traumerzählungen und Traumreflexionen, die in unmittelbarem Zusammenhang mit den Konzentrationslagern des NS-Regimes stehen. Eine vergleichende Lektüre aus wissens- und erfahrungspoetischer Perspektive bringt das breite Spektrum an Erzählweisen zum Vorschein, mit denen sich bekannte wie bislang kaum beachtete Autor:innen über den Traum schreibend der Shoah annähern. Solche Shoah-Träume bergen ein Wissen, das auf anderem Wege kaum zugänglich oder vermittelbar ist. Indem sie die Grenzen des Sagbaren ausloten, liefern die erzählten Träume einen eindrücklichen Beitrag zur Auseinandersetzung mit der ,Undarstellbarkeit' der Shoah.
