    Abstract ; Die Promotionsarbeit untersucht ca. 600 Stücke aus der Zeit von den ersten Vorläufern des Sturm und Drang bis zur Märzrevolution auf die Darstellung und die dramaturgische Funktion des Todes. Nachdem sie zunächst klärt, auf welche Weise der Tod dem Publikum bzw. dem Leser vermittelt wird, folgt eine Untersuchung im Hinblick auf vier verschiedene Aspekte: Struktur, Sprechakte, Szenenbilder und Figuren. Dabei werden unter anderem der Einfluss der Position des Todes im Stück auf dessen Darstellung geklärt, die typischen Merkmale des Sterbemonologs erläutert, das Arrangieren von Leichen im Szenenbild beschrieben und das Verhältnis des Todes von Haupt- und Nebenfiguren untersucht. In einem abschließenden Teil werden die einzelnen Ergebnisse zu einer Dramaturgie des Sterbens verknüpft und deren Leitlinien herausgearbeitet. ; Abstract ; The dissertation examines about 600 plays from the time of the first precursors of the Sturm und Drang up to the March Revolution on the depiction and dramaturgical function of death. After first clarifying the way in which death is conveyed to the public or the reader, an investigation follows with regard to four different aspects: structure, speech acts, scene images and characters. Among other things, it clarifies the influence of the position of death in the play on its representation, explains the typical features of the death monologue, describes the arrangement of corpses in the scene and examines the relationship between the death of main and minor characters. In a concluding part, the individual results are linked to a dramaturgy of dying and its guidelines are explained.

    Abstract: Schoolgirls writing short stories have surrendered themselves to some rules of a game, which, according to Ricoeur and Gadamer, delimits a field where everything ’is played’, and thereby, ’shatters the seriousness’ of ’the self-presence of a subject’. This article proposes that this field has a serious side of its own that reveals something true about the everyday reality of being a girl. The proposed worlds in the girls’ short stories are places from which research on women’s lives should begin is a central argument, along with the contention that for the researcher to be able to take the seriousness of this playful writing into account, she also has to assume the position of a playful figure. The article suggests that the empirical data of schoolgirl writing invited the researcher to think Ricoeur and feminist epistemology together. Further, a suggestion is that the roles of reading given by the texts have consequences for a ’new’ process-oriented writing pedagogy and the teacher

    Finalist, 2019 Locus Award for Nonfiction, presented by the Locus Science Fiction FoundationTraverses the history of imagined futures from the 1890s to the 2010s, interweaving speculative visions of gender, race, and sexuality from literature, film, and digital mediaOld Futures explores the social, political, and cultural forces feminists, queer people, and people of color invoke when they dream up alternative futures as a way to imagine transforming the present. Lothian shows how queer possibilities emerge when we practice the art of speculation: of imagining things otherwise than they are and creating stories from that impulse. Queer theory offers creative ways to think about time, breaking with straight and narrow paths toward the future laid out for the reproductive family, the law-abiding citizen, and the believer in markets. Yet so far it has rarely considered the possibility that, instead of a queer present reshaping the ways we relate to past and future, the futures imagined in the past can lead us to queer the present. Narratives of possible futures provide frameworks through which we understand our present, but the discourse of "the" future has never been a singular one. Imagined futures have often been central to the creation and maintenance of imperial domination and technological modernity; Old Futures offers a counterhistory of works that have sought-with varying degrees of success-to speculate otherwise. Examining speculative texts from the 1890s to the 2010s, from Samuel R. Delany to Sense8, Lothian considers the ways in which early feminist utopias and dystopias, Afrofuturist fiction, and queer science fiction media have insisted that the future can and must deviate from dominant narratives of global annihilation or highly restrictive hopes for redemption.Each chapter chronicles some of the means by which the production and destruction of futures both real and imagined takes place: through eugenics, utopia, empire, fascism, dystopia, race, capitalism, femininity, masculinity, and many kinds of queerness, reproduction, and sex. Gathering stories of and by populations who have been marked as futureless or left out by dominant imaginaries, Lothian offers new insights into what we can learn from efforts to imaginatively redistribute the future

    Die Studie setzt sich mit der Fiktionalisierung der Gewalterfahrung der haitianischen Gesellschaft nach dem Sturz der Duvalier-Diktatur im Jahr 1986 auseinander. Nach fast drei Jahrzehnten diktatorialer Repression waren die Hoffnungen in Haiti auf ein Ende der Gewalt nach 1986 zunächst groß. Doch auch in der Post-Duvalier-Ära hielten die politisch-gesellschaftlichen Auseinandersetzungen an und es kam zu einer zunehmenden Veralltäglichung der Gewalt. Trotz einer beachtlichen Zahl an Romanen zur Thematik wurde der haitianischen Literatur als Ort der kulturellen Verhandlung dieser Erfahrung bislang kaum Aufmerksamkeit zuteil. Die Studie schließt diese Lücke und erörtert vor der Folie einer kritischen Bestandsaufnahme der Diskurse über Gewalt in Haiti, wie diese verstörende Gewalterfahrung im zeitgenössischen haitianischen Roman in französischer Sprache aufgegriffen und narrativ inszeniert wird. Der Fokus liegt hierbei auf den beiden Romanen "Rue des pas-perdus" (1996) von Lyonel Trouillot und "La couleur de l’aube" (2008) von Yanick Lahens. Es wird die erinnerungsstiftende Funktion von Literatur herausgearbeitet, die die ausufernde Gewalt im symbolischen Raum der Fiktion über ein Narrativ des Traumas erfahrbar macht und sie so im kollektiven Gedächtnis bereithält. Zudem zeigt die Untersuchung auf, wie über die Literatur zum einen gesellschaftliche Aufarbeitungsprozesse angeregt und zum anderen aus der Perspektive einer marginalisierten Kultur einseitige Stigmatisierungen subversiv aufgebrochen werden können. ; Cette étude porte sur la fictionnalisation de l’expérience de la violence dans la société haïtienne après la chute de la dictature des Duvalier en 1986. Malgré un nombre important de romans qui traitent du sujet de la prolifération de la violence dans la vie quotidienne des Haïtiens durant l’ère post-Duvalier, la littérature en tant qu’espace culturel abordant ce sujet n’a pas encore été suffisamment étudiée. Tout en dressant un bilan critique des discours sur la violence en Haïti qui existent dans l’opinion publique, cette thèse de doctorat comble cette lacune et répond à la question de savoir comment des romans haïtiens contemporains traitent de cette expérience traumatique de la violence et la mettent en scène dans leurs discours narratifs. L’étude, qui met l’accent sur les deux romans "Rue des pas-perdus" (1996) de Lyonel Trouillot et "La couleur de l’aube" (2008) de Yanick Lahens, souligne que les textes permettent un travail de mémoire sur ce trop-plein de violence à travers un discours narratif qui souligne la dimension traumatique de cette expérience et inspire une réflexion critique collective. This study focuses on how the violence experienced by Haitian society after the overthrow of the Duvalier dictatorship in 1986 has been fictionalized in Haitian literature. Although numerous novels exist that grapple with the issue of the proliferation of violence in everyday life of Haitians in the post-Duvalier-era, literature discussing this traumatic experience has not yet been adequately studied. To close this gap, this thesis examines how contemporary Haitian novels narrate violence and which particular esthetics the texts use to discursively and symbolically display this disturbing experience. By analyzing the novels "Rue des pas-perdus" (1996) by Lyonel Trouillot et "La couleur de l’aube" (2008) by Yanick Lahens, this study shows that fiction allows for articulating excessive violence and dealing with this traumatic experience on a symbolic and cultural level. The novels are read as encouraging Haitian society to engage in a collective process of working through this trauma from the perspective of a globally marginalized culture.

    Attention to the elusiveness of violence opens up a rich landscape of analysis, whereby social scientists can examine the often-overlooked transformative dimensions of violent acts. Theories of violence are numerous today, but because of the mysterious nature of violence, and how each individual or group may endure it uniquely, its study cannot be limited to one specialized and highly restricted field. A Hermeneutics of Violence seeks to remedy this problem by placing in dialogue various theories of violence from the disciplines of anthropology, sociology, international relations, and philosophy. This study uses a four-dimensional lens to examine the many facets of violence, including its instrumental, linguistic, mimetic, and transcendental dimensions. Far from irreconcilable, these positions, when placed within a four-dimensional outlook, open up new avenues for the study of particular cases of violence. Exploring the complex interactions, for instance, of "enemy-siblings," Mark M. Ayyash reveals "postures of incommensurability" that continuously produce conflictual positions across a spectrum of time and space and demand the release of violence. The book concludes that these postures must be understood and deconstructed before we can have a legitimate chance to achieve peace and justice, the conceptions of which must come with the intent of not necessarily opposing violence but rather replacing our conceptions of what the violences have come to constitute as "real."

    This volume examines the issue of violence in Xenophon's works, who lived in circumstances of war for many years. All the papers address issues of violence from different aspects. The exclusive focus on this issue is justified, since no previous detailed study exists on the subject. Most of the chapters focus on the Hellenica, because this work records more aspects of violence than the rest of his works. The volume is more concerned with examining violence in practice rather than the theory of violence, and violent practices are more frequently recorded in the Hellenica, which is the main historical work of Xenophon.This volume attempts to provide a comprehensive study of the subject of violence in Xenophon's works and to demonstrate the coherence and consistency of his thought on it. This work aspires to be a contribution to classical scholarship since it attempts to: (1) shed further light on the literary character of Xenophon's oeuvre; (2) offer new interpretation of passages and themes; and (3) put emphasis on passages that scholars have not pointed out and which offer important insights to the thought of Xenophon

    Since World War II, French and Francophone literature and film have repeatedly sought not to singularize the Holocaust as the paradigm of historical trauma but rather to connect its memory with other memories of violence, namely that of colonialism. These works produced what Debarati Sanyal calls a "memory-in-complicity" attuned to the gray zones that implicate different regimes of violence across history as well as those of different subject positions such as victim, perpetrator, witness, and reader/spectator. Examining a range of works from Albert Camus, Primo Levi, Alain Resnais, and Jean-Paul Sartre to Jonathan Littell, Assia Djebar, Giorgio Agamben, and Boualem Sansal, Memory and Complicity develops an inquiry into the political force and ethical dangers of such implications, contrasting them with contemporary models for thinking about trauma and violence and offering an extended meditation on the role of aesthetic form, especially allegory, within acts of transhistorical remembrance. What are the political benefits and ethical risks of invoking the memory of one history in order to address another? What is the role of complicity in making these connections? How does complicity, rather than affect based discourses of trauma, shame and melancholy, open a critical engagement with the violence of history? What is it about literature and film that have made them such powerful vehicles for this kind of connective memory work?As it offers new readings of some of the most celebrated and controversial novelists, filmmakers, and playwrights from the French-speaking world, Memory and Complicity addresses these questions in order to reframe the way we think about historical memory and its political uses today

    Comic und Gewalt teilen eine lange Geschichte. Über Jahrzehnte hinweg hatte der Comic ein Image als gewaltaffines Medium. Diese konstruierte Nähe zur Gewalt hat sein Selbstverständnis nachhaltig geprägt. Die Studie geht davon aus, dass Inszenierungen von Gewalt im Comic zu untersuchen heißt, dass man dessen formale Aspekte nicht ignorieren kann und legt exemplarische Fallstudien vor. Dabei gilt: Die Form bestimmt den Inhalt. Gewaltdarstellungen im Comic lassen sich nicht verstehen ohne Berücksichtigung der Formbedingungen ihrer Darstellung. Als Teil einer Auseinandersetzung mit der Bildlichkeit der Welt geht der Comic von einem visuellen Kern von Kultur aus und setzt dies konsequent um. Dazu nutzt er vor allem Techniken der Überzeichnung und des Spektakels – was früher als Zeichen seiner „Primitivität“ galt, stellt eine besondere Kompetenz des Comic dar.Dies ist die erste Monographie zum Thema.Mit Studien zu ‚Sin City‘, ‚Helden ohne Skrupel‘, ‚100 Bullets‘, ‚DMZ‘, Baru, Joe Sacco, Hermann Huppen und Winshluss. Comics and violence share a long history. For decades the comics medium was regarded as being closely related to violence. Such made up closeness had huge influence on the medium’s self-understanding. This study stems from the assumption that studying the production of violence in comics means that its formal aspects can’t be ignored. Therefore, it analyzes a number of case studies, considering that content is following form. The production of violence in comics cannot be understood without acknowledging its formal conditions for representation. Being part of a broader reflection on the visuality of the world, comics do refer to a visual core of culture. For its production the medium of comics is mostly making use of techniques of exaggeration and spectacle. What has been regarded as proof for its ‘primitiveness’ has now become a particular competence of comics.This is the first monography on this subject.Containing analyses of ‚Sin City‘, ‚Les immomables‘, ‚100 Bullets‘, ‚DMZ‘, Baru, Joe Sacco, Hermann Huppen, and Winshluss.

    Schwertkampf, Blutrache, Folter - es sind Bilder voller Grausamkeit und Drastik, die dem >dunklen< Mittelalter anhaften. Doch wie verhalten sie sich zur realen Gewaltpraxis der Epoche? Welchen Status besass physische Gewalt für die verschiedenen Gruppen der mittelalterlichen Gesellschaft? Und wie imaginierte das Mittelalter selbst seine Gewalt? Eine Geschichte der Gewalt des Mittelalters lässt sich nicht einfach den Text- und Bilddokumenten entnehmen, denn diese folgen bestimmten Darstellungskonventionen. Ein adäquates Verständnis mittelalterlicher Gewaltpraxis setzt die Kenntnis jener Vorstellungen und Phantasmen voraus, die ihre Akteure - Fehdeherren, Kreuzfahrer, Geissler - zu Akten der Gewalt gegen sich und andere angetrieben haben. Im interdisziplinären Zusammenwirken von Archäologie, Geschichte, Kunstgeschichte und Ethnologie entfaltet das Buch eine neue Geschichte der mittelalterlichen Gewalt

    Since World War II, French and Francophone literature and film have repeatedly sought not to singularize the Holocaust as the paradigm of historical trauma but rather to connect its memory with other memories of violence, namely that of colonialism. These works produced what Debarati Sanyal calls a "memory-in-complicity" attuned to the gray zones that implicate different regimes of violence across history as well as those of different subject positions such as victim, perpetrator, witness, and reader/spectator. Examining a range of works from Albert Camus, Primo Levi, Alain Resnais, and Jean-Paul Sartre to Jonathan Littell, Assia Djebar, Giorgio Agamben, and Boualem Sansal, Memory and Complicity develops an inquiry into the political force and ethical dangers of such implications, contrasting them with contemporary models for thinking about trauma and violence and offering an extended meditation on the role of aesthetic form, especially allegory, within acts of transhistorical remembrance. What are the political benefits and ethical risks of invoking the memory of one history in order to address another? What is the role of complicity in making these connections? How does complicity, rather than affect based discourses of trauma, shame and melancholy, open a critical engagement with the violence of history? What is it about literature and film that have made them such powerful vehicles for this kind of connective memory work?As it offers new readings of some of the most celebrated and controversial novelists, filmmakers, and playwrights from the French-speaking world, Memory and Complicity addresses these questions in order to reframe the way we think about historical memory and its political uses today

    Finalist, 2019 Locus Award for Nonfiction, presented by the Locus Science Fiction FoundationTraverses the history of imagined futures from the 1890s to the 2010s, interweaving speculative visions of gender, race, and sexuality from literature, film, and digital mediaOld Futures explores the social, political, and cultural forces feminists, queer people, and people of color invoke when they dream up alternative futures as a way to imagine transforming the present. Lothian shows how queer possibilities emerge when we practice the art of speculation: of imagining things otherwise than they are and creating stories from that impulse. Queer theory offers creative ways to think about time, breaking with straight and narrow paths toward the future laid out for the reproductive family, the law-abiding citizen, and the believer in markets. Yet so far it has rarely considered the possibility that, instead of a queer present reshaping the ways we relate to past and future, the futures imagined in the past can lead us to queer the present. Narratives of possible futures provide frameworks through which we understand our present, but the discourse of "the" future has never been a singular one. Imagined futures have often been central to the creation and maintenance of imperial domination and technological modernity; Old Futures offers a counterhistory of works that have sought-with varying degrees of success-to speculate otherwise. Examining speculative texts from the 1890s to the 2010s, from Samuel R. Delany to Sense8, Lothian considers the ways in which early feminist utopias and dystopias, Afrofuturist fiction, and queer science fiction media have insisted that the future can and must deviate from dominant narratives of global annihilation or highly restrictive hopes for redemption.Each chapter chronicles some of the means by which the production and destruction of futures both real and imagined takes place: through eugenics, utopia, empire, fascism, dystopia, race, capitalism, femininity, masculinity, and many kinds of queerness, reproduction, and sex. Gathering stories of and by populations who have been marked as futureless or left out by dominant imaginaries, Lothian offers new insights into what we can learn from efforts to imaginatively redistribute the future

    Vladimir Sorokin is the most prominent and the most controversial contemporary Russian writer. Having emerged as a prose writer in Moscow's artistic underground in the late 1970s and early 80s, he became visible to a broader Russian audience only in the mid-1990s, with texts shocking the moralistic expectations of traditionally minded readers by violating not only Soviet ideological taboos, but also injecting vulgar language, sex, and violence into plots that the postmodernist Sorokin borrowed from nineteenth-century literature and Socialist Realism. Sorokin became famous when the Putin youth organization burned his books in 2002 and he picked up neo-nationalist and neo-imperialist discourses in his dystopian novels of the 2000s and 2010s, making him one of the fiercest critics of Russia's "new middle ages," while remaining steadfast in his dismantling of foreign discourses
