Some twenty years after the publication of Ben Okri's 1991 Booker Prize winning novel, The Famished Road, this volume proposes a spiralling journey into the imaginary homelands of its main protagonist, the adventurous spirit-child Azaro. Over the years, The Famished Road has been attributed a variety of mixed and sometimes contradictory labels (postcolonial, magic realist, mythopoeic, new ageist, picaresque, epic, to name just a few). Contributors to this volume have chosen to look beyond pre...

Ob in homerischen Epen, antiken Romanen, Epen und höfischen Romanen des Mittelalters, frühneuzeitlichen Prosaromanen, Bildungsromanen, historischen Romanen, Autobiographien, multimodalen oder postkolonialen Romanen - der Raum, aus dem die Hauptfigur stammt, spielt innerhalb der erzählten Welt häufig eine entscheidende Rolle. Der Band wirft anhand von Fallbeispielen aus der erzählenden europäischen Literatur von der Antike bis heute Schlaglichter auf die je spezifischen Zusammenhänge von Raum und Herkunft. Der thematische Fokus der Frage nach Räumen der Herkunft lenkt den Blick darüber hinaus immer auch auf handlungs-, figuren- und zeitspezifische Momente. Die Fallstudien des Bandes untersuchen einzeltextspezifisch und ebenendifferenziert Herkunftsräume und versuchen von den Texten, ihren Darstellungsstrategien und Erzählinhalten ausgehend, narratologische Beschreibungskategorien für die methodisch kontrollierte, historisch adäquate Deutung von Texten fruchtbar zu machen. Dass im Zusammenspiel von Zeit, Raum, Figuren und Ereignissen die Räume der Herkunft eine wesentliche Schnittstelle darstellen, mag dabei nicht nur als allgemein, sondern gerade auch als fallweise zu begründende These gelten.

Heimat has been a crucial concept for the construction of identity in the German-speaking world. Seemingly impossible to translate, Heimat has served to describe feelings of comfort and belonging that are traditionally tied to a specific location, be it one's place of birth or childhood home. Yet, in a world characterized by ever increasing global influences and a fast-paced lifestyle, the notion of Heimat as a static, inflexible and rather exclusionary idea is becoming more and more obsolete and is giving way to new hybrid Heimat forms that encompass traditional as well as foreign elements.

Cet ouvrage, fruit d’un colloque international qui s’est déroulé à Dijon en mars 2012, réfléchit au thème de la région natale chez les écrivains de la Renaissance, qu’ils écrivent en latin ou en français. Il se propose de considérer l’image que ceux-ci ont laissée de leur « petite patrie », comme Cicéron qualifiait Arpinum. Tout en s’intéressant à des auteurs d’Europe du Sud (le Mantouan Battista Spagnoli, l’Espagnol Juan Luis Vivès), il fait la part belle aux écrivains de Nord, connus ou moins connus, issus de pays variés (Flamands, Germains, Ecossais, Français...). Les communications dégagent les caractéristiques d’un humanisme du nord qui, par son ancrage régional, s’affirme en opposition ou en rivalité avec l’humanisme du sud, et analysent les différentes modalités de la description de la région natale: élogieuse souvent, plus rarement critique, celle-ci est parfois «biaisée» (la «petite patrie» n’est pas le lieu de naissance mais un autre lieu), voire refusée (en particulier par les auteurs protestants). L’ensemble se présente comme un vaste aperçu de l’image qu’ont laissée de leur région natale une trentaine d’auteurs de genres littéraires divers, de pays divers, de confessions diverses, mais qui tous témoignent du caractère très riche de ce motif pour une herméneutique de leurs oeuvres..
