    Abstract ; Anknüpfend an linguistische Untersuchungen zur Mehrsprachigkeit wird in diesem Beitrag herausgearbeitet, wie die sogenannte Südschleswiger Literatur als ein Spannungsfeld sprachlicher Varietäten begreifbar ist. Mit einer Analyse der sprachideologischen Entfaltung eines Revuetextes (2016) und eines Gedichts (1977/2011) wird gezeigt, dass territoriale oder identitätspolitische Aspekte die komplexen Konstellationen der Varietäten häufig zu Unrecht dominieren. In diesem Beitrag wird dafür plädiert, stattdessen den Adressatenbezug mehrsprachiger Literatur und die Prozesse der sozialen Positionierung zu untersuchen. Damit einhergehend wird eine neuartige Funktion dieser Minderheitenliteratur festgestellt: die gedächtnispolitische Symbolik einer generationsspezifischen Erinnerungsliteratur. ; Abstract ; Building on linguistic studies on multilingualism, this contribution elaborates the so-called Southern Schleswig literature as an area of tension of language varieties. An analysis of the manifestation of language ideology in a revue text (2016) and a poem (1977/2011) demonstrates that complex variety constellations are often wrongly dominated by aspects of territorial and identity politics. This article is pleading for the analysis of the reference to the addressees within multilingual literature and the social relations in which the communicating parties take their stand. The minority literature in Southern Schleswig has, as this paper shows, obviously taken over a new function, as the symbolism of a politics of memory in generation-specific remembrance literature is strongly apparent.

  2. Formen von Heimsuchung

    Abstract ; Die Dissertation untersucht sechs südafrikanische Romane, die in einer Zeitspanne von wenigen Jahren um das Ende der Apartheid entstanden sind. Was sie zu einem Korpus eint, sind auffällige Merkmale, die in dieser Arbeit als Formen von Heimsuchung analysiert und differenziert werden. Heimsuchung meint dabei nicht nur die Suche nach einer Heimat, sondern auch störende Eindringlinge innerhalb der Grenzen des Eigenen: Dies können sowohl unheimliche Phantasmen als auch Gäste sein, die sich nicht an die Regeln derjenigen Ordnung halten, in der sie nun stören. Somit beschäftigt sich die Dissertation mit unsicheren Grenzen zwischen Vergangenheit und Gegenwart, zwischen Räumen des Eigenen und des Anderen, zwischen innen und außen sowie zwischen real und irreal. Die Analysen zeigen, dass Heimsuchungen in den Texten als Subversion einer zeitlichen, räumlichen oder psychischen Ordnung fungieren, als Bedingung sowie zugleich Unmöglichkeit eines „Schlupflochs“ − und als Orientierungsversuch der weißen unsettled settlers. ; Abstract ; This dissertation examines six South African novels written towards and after the end of the Apartheid regime. All texts have certain characteristics in common which I analysed and differentiated as forms of Heimsuchung. This German term refers at the same time to the search for a home and to disturbing intruders, like an uncanny phantasm or a guest who does not follow the given rules of the place it resides in. The dissertation thus deals with ambiguous boundaries between past and present, between spaces of one''s own and of ''the other'', between inside and outside, and between real and unreal. The analyses reveal that Heimsuchungen function as a subversion of a temporal, spatial or psychological order, as both a condition for and impossibility of a loophole − and as an attempt at orientation for white „unsettled settlers“.

    The objective of the contributions presented in this volume is the investigation of authorship in pre-modern Arabic texts. From several angles and different perspectives it has been asked how the author in his various facets and aspects, and as a principle of organization and guidance, can be traced and understood. The author can be perceived as a historical individual, a singular genius, or a gifted anthologist; he can claim authority or pass it on to others. The author can be invisible, applying textual strategies for steering the reader’s perception and interpretation, trying to leave the reader oblivious to his authorial interference. Although authors can be proud to present their knowledge and their opinions, they can also be reluctant to show themselves and can even disclaim their responsibility, depending on the issue at hand. The contributions gathered in this volume provide a fresh view on the multilayered nature of authorial functions and open up new perspectives on our understanding of the rich and diverse pre-modern Arabic culture and literature.

    Abstract: "Der Beitrag fokussiert auf die Protagonistinnen und zugleich Erzählerinnen von Stephenie Meyers Twilight-Saga und E. L. James' Fifty-Shades-Trilogie und vergleicht sie mit ihrem Prototyp, Jane Eyre aus dem gleichnamigen Roman von Charlotte Brontë. Im Zentrum steht eine Analyse der Selbstbeschreibung von Bella, Ana und Jane als gewöhnlich, unscheinbar und wenig attraktiv. Indem diese Selbstbeschreibung in den Kontext des Gesamttextes - und damit der Liebesgeschichte und ihrer seit dem 19. Jahrhundert etablierten Begehrensökonomie - gestellt wird, kann herausgearbeitet werden, wie die Sichtweise der Erzählerinnen im Text gewichtet und punktuell infrage gestellt wird und wie sich die Protagonistinnen im Laufe der Erzählung in feminine und begehrenswerte Frauen verwandeln. Dadurch kann in den Blick genommen werden, welche spezifische Form weißer bürgerlicher heterosexueller Weiblichkeit in heteronormativen Liebesgeschichten entworfen und bekräftigt wird."

    Abstract: "Der vorliegende Beitrag beschäftigt sich anhand der Philosophie von Theodor W. Adorno und Richard Rorty mit der Utopie in der Literatur. Zunächst wird dazu das berühmte Diktum von Adorno behandelt, das besagt, dass ein Gedicht nach Auschwitz zu schreiben barbarisch sei, und daran anschließend grundsätzlicher auf die utopische und gesellschaftskritische Bedeutung der Literatur in seiner Philosophie eingegangen. Im weiteren Verlauf wird die Literatur und ihre utopische Funktion im Denken Richard Rortys untersucht, um im nächsten Schritt die Unterschiede und Parallelen zwischen beiden Philosophen aufzeigen zu können und sich somit der Antwort auf die Frage anzunähern, ob Literatur etwas Utopisches vermitteln kann. Von entscheidender Bedeutung für die unterschiedlichen Einschätzungen der praktischen und theoretischen Interventionsmöglichkeiten der Literatur sind dabei die divergierenden Auffassungen der beiden Denker von Geschichte und Gesellschaft."

    Abstract: King Lear (1606) is one of the political tragedies of Shakespeare in which the playwright censures Lear's hamartia wrecking havoc not only upon people's lives but bringing devastation on his own kindred. Shakespeare castigates Lear's wrath, sense of superiority, and misjudgments which lead to catastrophic consequences. In Death of Yazdgerd (1979), an anti-authoritarian play, Bahram Beyzayie, the well-known Persiaian tragedian, also depicts the hamartia of King Yazdgerd III whose pride and unjust treatment of people end in devastation. By demonstrating such defective and reprehensible tragic heroes, both playwrights set at providing audience with an anti-heroic representation of the kings and also shattering the common god-like heroism attributed to hero kings. Bearing in mind the political instability of England after the succession of James I, Shakespeare avails himself of such anti-heroic representation to forewarn those monarchs incapable of maintaining a balance between their j

    Abstract: From its beginning in the academic studies during the later nineteenth century, Romanticism has provoked ongoing debates over the nature of its definition. Nonetheless Morse Peckham has satisfactorily settled this matter by indicating that romanticism has dramatically altered the way of thinking therefore it should be distinctively met. For this purpose, he proposed that dealing with the concept of romanticism necessitate dividing it into two concepts of negative and positive romanticism in which a transition is occurred from negative romanticism to positive romanticism however in some cases this transition may not become completed and is lead to the obscure origin of the sense of isolation among various romantic poets. To clearly illustrate Peckham's notion of negative romanticism, it is tried to explore Nima Yushij's Afsaneh who is known to be the most romantic poet of Persian literature. Based upon Peckham's notion of negative romanticism, Nima's sense of despair and isolation i

    Abstract: This study employs Foucault's views on the strategies of power to analyze that the institutional world of Bleak House makes a disciplinary structure. The intrusion of these institutions in all strata of society in the novel, from the aristocratic Dedlocks to the poor area of Tom-All-Alone shapes a panoptic structure in which everyone is visible through a permanent and omniscient gaze. Under the matrix of various institutions almost all the characters in the novel, directly or indirectly, are trapped and engaged. This study shows the modernity of Dickens views on power relations in society and gives readers new maps to read Bleak House and new perspectives from which to view it

    Abstract: This study concentrates on the analysis of early works by Rudyard Kipling who was born into the family of English colonists to India, thus becoming a representative of the newly formed Anglo-Indian society. The writer's sketch Anglo-Indian Society (1887) and his collection of short stories Plain Tales from the Hills (1888) depict the characteristic features of Anglo-Indians’ worldview and lifestyle, which are revealed and analyzed by the author of the article. Special attention is paid to biographical factors influencing the author’s choice of Anglo-Indian topic at the beginning of his writing career. The researcher concludes that Kipling presents in his works an outline of Anglo-Indian society which emerged from the writer's observations of Anglo-Indians' lives during his work as a reporter. Striving for credibility in consideration of advantages and shortcomings of Anglo-Indian worldview and lifestyle, the author tries to occupy the position of the unconcerned observer, being cap

    Abstract: This essay sets out to study the function of hybridity and mimicry in Jean Rhy's acclaimed novel Wide Sargasso Sea drawing on Homi K. Bhabha's theoretical framework in this regard. In this novel, Antoinette emerges as the "Other" who aims to prove herself to the "Centre". Undergoing extreme sufferings, the heroine wistfully ponders mimicry as an impulse to break out of her mare's nest and to establish herself within one culture. Indeed, unlike what Bhabha believes mimicry cannot upset the total authority of the "Centre". Meanwhile, Antoinette used it as a result of her longings for the position of the "Centre" which she is unable to attain because of her hybrid existence. Countering Homi K. Bhabha's central argument, this essay contends that Antoinette’s mimicry of Englishness fails to fend off the norms of the superior power, but partakes in celebrating the very ideals that Bhabah's theory is trying to keep at bay

    Abstract: The Moroccan novel, being part of the Arabic novel, is a very recent invention. However, in Morocco the novel has become an emblematic genre, which has known a momentous development. This article attempts a critical analysis of three recently published Arabic novels (Morocco) from a cultural studies perspective by highlighting the translational dimensions inherent in their writing, as well as their tendency to redirect attention to more urgent issues related to Moroccan identity

    Abstract: This research is an ecocritical reading of Melville's "Bartleby the Scrivener". Melville's treatment of the environment is described and analyzed with regard to Augé's theory of non-Places. The examples of non-place in Melville's Wall Street story include the compartmentalized office, the urban labyrinth, artificial and natural greeneries and oriental landscapes. The motif of compartmentalization forms the binary of insider and outsider. A close attention to the binaries in this story reveal Melville's critical attitude towards urban culture that threatens the American identity and mocks the American predilection for mobility in open spaces. This story reveals the way social institutions of an urban culture can determine the tragic fate of an out of place individual. Melville, in this story, reveals the consequences of marginalizing nature and indicates his ecological concerns in mid-nineteenth century America. He mourns the fading out of biocentric view of nature and warns against

    Abstract: This article aims to analyze Thomas Hardy's novel, Far from the Madding Crowd, from the perspective of ecocriticism and study where Hardy's ecological consciousness originates from and how it is represented and interwoven in the characters, setting and plot of the novel. It also focuses on such questions as how Gabriel Oak can be the voice of harmony in nature and what does the portrayal of this character tell us about today's ecological crises? Ecocriticism, a newly found theoretical framework, explores the ways in which how environment is illustrated in literature and, by so doing, examines and proposes possible solutions concerning our contemporary environmental situation. In an era where a long-established rustic order are giving way to the giants of technology and industrial capitalism, there remains no more appealing vision than that of England's pastoral and green land. In his Wessex, a part real and a part dream country which is the setting for most of his works, Hardy vivi

    Abstract: This paper sets out to investigate Amy Tan's The Joy Luck Club, a liminal work written in-between cultures, in the light of Homi Bhabha's concept of the third space as a site of transformation and transvaluation. It is argued that Tan's novel is implicated in unexpected forms of resistance as a result of its placement in the borderland of cultures. Thus, exploring the discursive fissures and ideological ruptures inscribed in the novel, the authors seek to bring to fore how the very mainstream accounts of Chinese culture and orientalist archive of knowledge in which the work is embedded are contested in the third-space enounters between subjects of different cultures. Orientalism, Western feminism, American Dream, and multiculturalism are some of the major discourses whose truthfulness and serenity are shown to be precarious and open to questioning, hence the recuperation of the subaltern's voice through this contrapuntal reading

    Abstract: An imitation of the literary styles and modes of expression of the great writers in the post-World War II was the criterion of success for any male or female writer. The conventions of T.S. Eliot and W.H. Auden influenced the poetics and thought of the younger generation poets. For example, Adrienne Rich (1929-2012) was an ardent disciple of these conventions in her early career. She was influenced by the phallogocentric discourse of subject formation. She followed this man-made discourse to be accepted within the literary circle as a successful woman writer, but she realized that this discourse didn’t help women in the expression of their female voices. This study explores the failure of the phallogocentric techniques and modes of writing in the expression of Rich's female voice in An Unsaid Word (1951). The study is conducted in the light of Lacanian Symbolic system of identification. The study concludes that Lacanian system of identification was behind the distortions of meaning

    Abstract: Persian poetry lingered upon the old classical Persian prosody for more than a thousand year that it stagnated and stopped flowering new concepts and forms. However, Nima broke the dull and monotonous routine of Persian poetry by writing the first true modernist poem. When Nima's "Afsaneh" appeared, traditionalist adamantly opposed its new artistic and aesthetic view due to revealing some similarity with great European romantic examples. The similarity can never be considered as a weak point of "Afsaneh" because Nima has masterfully used European romantic elements to refresh the long-standing tradition of Persian poetry. In this respect, Nima has written his poetry consciously or unconsciously in the same poetic style of great European romantic poets. M. H. Abrams has labeled this poetic style "the greater romantic lyric". As a result, it is tried to examine Nima's "Afsaneh" with respect to Abrams's definition of "the greater romantic lyric" so as to prove that Nima's "Afsaneh" clo

    Abstract: People throughout the history have been subject to discrimination from three distinct perspectives of class, race, and gender. Those who were richer used the lower class as a tool in their service to have a comfortable life. The white oppressed the black as the other who was not similar to him in the color of skin. The male dominated the female as she was different in gender lacking the Phallus. The amalgamation of these ideas towards human being has masterly been presented in the story "That Evening Sun", by William Faulkner. The present study, by applying Marxist approach on this story, tends to analyze how human being may be oppressed from different aspects

    Abstract: Antony Pogorelsky (1787-1836) (the pseudonym of А. А. Perovsky) was one of the writers active in the early stages of Russian romantic prose, when romanticism, with its new artistic outlook based on rapt attention towards and keen interest in the inner world of feelings and emotions of its literary heroes, replaced the literary movement of sentimentalism with its orientation toward the ideas of the enlightenment. The current article is aimed at the investigation of the first book by A. Pogorelsky "The Double, or My Evenings in Malorossia", the novelty of which lies not only in the fact that the book is directly correlated with the traditions of West European romanticism (which was undoubtedly well-known to the writer), but also in the introduction of a new principle of composition into Russian literature (the cycle of several stories united through dialogic framing), which was the first experiment of this kind in the Russian literary environment and would soon become one of the favo

    From the 19th century onwards, famous literary trials have caught the attention of readers, academics and the public at large. Indeed it is striking that more often than not, it was the texts of renowned writers that were dealt with by the courts, as for example Gustave Flauberts Madame Bovary and Charles Baudelaires Les Fleurs du Mal in France, James Joyces Ulysses and Henry Millers Tropic of Cancer in the US, D.H. Lawrences Lady Chatterleys Lover in Great-Britain, up to the more recent trials on Klaus Manns Mephisto and Maxim Billers novel Esra in Germany. By bringing together international leading experts, Literary Trials represents the first step towards a systematic discussion of literary trials on a global scale. Beginning by first reassessing some of the most famous of these trials, it also analyses less well-known but significant literary trials. Special attention is paid to recent developments in the relationship between literature and judicature, pointing towards an increasing role for libel and defamation in the societal demarcation of what literature is, and is not, allowed to do.This title was made Open Access by libraries from around the world through Knowledge Unlatched
