    Die Studie bearbeitet anhand der Themenverknüpfung "Sexualität und Tod" ein im engeren Sinne literaturwissenschaftliches, im weiteren Sinne kulturwissenschaftliches Problemfeld: das der Interdependenz literarischer und soziokultureller Phänomene im historischen Wandel. Den Untersuchungsbereich bildet die englische Kultur vom späten 18. bis zum ausgehenden 19. Jahrhundert, bzw. die englische Schauer- und Sensationsliteratur dieser Zeit. Die Arbeit stellt aber auch allgemein die bisher umfassendste Behandlung der Themenverknüpfung "Sexualität und Tod" in Literatur und soziokulturellem Kontext dar. Methodisch geht die Untersuchung weit über traditionelle Motivgeschichte hinaus und verbindet Ansätze des Strukturalismus (Jakobson, Lodge), der Soziologie (Parsons, Meyer/Ort), der Psychologie (Freud) und der Kulturtheorie (Bataille, Foucault). Inhaltlich untersucht sie zum einen die historischen Manifestationen und Wandlungen der Diskurse "Sexualität" und "Tod", und andererseits - in einem ausführlichen textanalytischen Teil - literarische Werke von Horace Walpole, M.G. Lewis, Mary Shelley, John W. Polidori, Emily Brontë, Wilkie Collins, Sheridan Le Fanu, Oscar Wilde und Bram Stoker. Im Zuge der Analyse und Korrelation allgemein kultureller, gesellschaftlicher und literarischer Diskurse entwickelt die Arbeit u.a. ein Typenschema möglicher Themenverknüpfungen, ein bipolares Modell soziokultureller Tabufunktionen und die literarhistorische Hypothese vom "Pendel der Verknüpfungsmodi"

    Preliminary Material -- Introduction: As the End Approaches -- 1. Wang Yi on Integrity and Loyalty -- 2. A Young Lady on Yellow Pongee Silk -- 3. Ruan Ji on Apocalypse -- 4. Tao Qian on His Deathbed -- 5. Xie Lingyun on Awakening -- 6. Composed on the Verge of Unnatural Death -- 7. Epilogue: The Fisherman in Reclusion -- Works Cited -- Index. This book focuses on the representation of human mortality in early medieval Chinese literature. This theme is observed and reconstructed through the contextual and intertextual analysis of the work of eminent writers of the period, texts that have never been examined from an eschatological perspective. Through this perspective, and the careful use of research from the fields of religion and anthropology, the book offers a fresh view of commentator Wang Yi (fl. 89–158), well-known poets Ruan Ji (210–63), Tao Qian (365?–427), and Xie Lingyun (385–433), and also brings into the discussion relevant works by several previously neglected authors. The book contributes a new angle from which to appreciate literature of this and other periods in Chinese history

    "Surveys the traditions of Native American elegiac expression over several centuries. Krupat covers a variety of oral performances of loss and renewal, including the Condolence Rites of the Iroquois and the memorial ceremony of the Tlingit people known as koo'eex, examining as well a number of Ghost Dance songs, which have been reinterpreted in culturally specific ways by many different tribal nations. Krupat treats elegiac "farewell" speeches of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries in considerable detail, and comments on retrospective autobiographies by Black Hawk and Black Elk. Among contemporary Native writers, he looks at elegiac work by Linda Hogan, N. Scott Momaday, Gerald Vizenor, Sherman Alexie, Maurice Kenny, and Ralph Salisbury, among others. Despite differences of language and culture, he finds that death and loss are consistently felt by Native peoples both personally and socially: someone who had contributed to the People's well-being was now gone. Native American elegiac expression offered mourners consolation so that they might overcome their grief and renew their will to sustain communal life"--

    "The noble wives in María de Zayas's Desengaños suffer terrible fates: one is beheaded, another poisoned, one is cemented into a chimney, while yet another is locked into a tiny wall closet where she dies. The hallmark of Zayas's aesthetics, these characters are the central reason why her fiction has increased in popularity through the ages. Yet their stories pose an apparent contradiction between the author's pro-female rhetoric and her gusto for killing model women, then beautifying their mutilated cadavers

    Dressed to Kill reconciles Zayas's Desengaños with the age in which it was written, contextualizing the book in baroque poetics, the Spanish honour code, and fifteenth-century martyr saints' lives. Elizabeth Rhodes elegantly uncovers Zayas's intention to reform the Spanish nobility by displaying noble misbehaviour and its deadly consequences. Her book concludes by detailing the Desengaños' intriguing influence on the aesthetic base of Gothic literature by revealing that its authors were avid readers of Zayas."--Pub. desc

Krupat covers a variety of oral performances of loss and renewal, including the Condolence Rites of the Iroquois and the memorial ceremony of the Tlingit people known as koo'eex, examining as well a number of Ghost Dance songs, which have been reinterpreted in culturally specific ways by many different tribal nations. Krupat treats elegiac "farewell" speeches of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries in considerable detail, and comments on retrospective autobiographies by Black Hawk and Black Elk. Among contemporary Native writers, he looks at elegiac work by Linda Hogan, N. Scott Momaday, Gerald Vizenor, Sherman Alexie, Maurice Kenny, and Ralph Salisbury, among others. Despite differences of language and culture, he finds that death and loss are consistently felt by Native peoples both personally and socially: someone who had contributed to the People's well-being was now gone. Native American elegiac expression offered mourners consolation so that they might overcome their grief and renew their will to sustain communal life"-- Publisher's Web site.

    Die Arbeit setzt bei der Frage ein, warum es der Literatur im ausgehenden 19. und beginnenden 20. Jahrhundert möglich war, sich dem Tod verstärkt zuzuwenden, während er aus dem Öffentlichkeitsbewusstsein zunehmend verdrängt wurde. Dabei richtet sich das Erkenntnisinteresse vor allem auf die ästhetischen Verfahrensweisen, die der Literatur eine Verarbeitung der neuen Endlichkeitserfahrung erlauben. An exemplarischen Interpretationen deutschsprachiger Texte macht die Untersuchung deutlich, inwiefern die Erzählstrukturen durch die neuen Bewusstseinsstrukturen affiziert und verändert werden. The study sets out from an inquiry into why in the late 19th and early 20th century literature turned more and more to the subject of death although this phenomenon was increasingly repressed and negated in public awareness. The bias of this inquiry is slanted towards the aesthetic procedures enabling literature to embark on this new engagement with the experience of finiteness and mortality. Interpretations of selected texts in German demonstrate the extent to which narrative structures are suffused, affected and changed by new structures of awareness.

    Die Arbeit beschäftigt sich anhand der Themenverknüpfung "Sexualität und Tod" mit der funktional-strukturalen Interdependenz literarischer und soziokultureller Diskurse im historischen Wandel. Den Untersuchungsbereich bildet die englische Kultur vom späten 18. bis zum ausgehenden 19. Jahrhundert, bzw. die englische Schauer- und Sensationsliteratur dieses Zeitraums. Analysiert werden nach einer theoretischen Grundlegung zunächst die kulturgeschichtlichen Diskurse von Sexualität und Tod in dieser Zeit und dann u.a. Texte von Walpole, Lewis, Mary Shelley, Emily Brontë, Collins, Le Fanu, Wilde und Stoker. The study deals with the thematic combination of 'sexuality and death' in order to explore the functional-structural relationship between literary and cultural discourses and its historical changes. The areas of investigation are English culture between the late 18th and the late 19th century as well as the gothic and sensation narratives of the time. A thorough theoretical foundation is followed first by an investigation of historical developments in the cultural discourses of sexuality and death, and then by extensive analyses of texts by Walpole, Lewis, Mary Shelley, Emily Brontk, Collins, Le Fanu, Wilde, Stoker and others. Review text: "Meier's book impresses the reader by its broad approach, excellent structure, thorough reflections, balanced judgements, and last but not least its comprehensive documentation with a wealth of information and discussion in the footnotes."Michael Meyer in: Germanisch-Romanische Monatsschrift 4/2008

Tao Qian on His Deathbed -- 5. Xie Lingyun on Awakening -- 6. Composed on the Verge of Unnatural Death -- 7. Epilogue: The Fisherman in Reclusion -- Works Cited -- Index. This book focuses on the representation of human mortality in early medieval Chinese literature. This theme is observed and reconstructed through the contextual and intertextual analysis of the work of eminent writers of the period, texts that have never been examined from an eschatological perspective. Through this perspective, and the careful use of research from the fields of religion and anthropology, the book offers a fresh view of commentator Wang Yi (fl. 89–158), well-known poets Ruan Ji (210–63), Tao Qian (365?–427), and Xie Lingyun (385–433), and also brings into the discussion relevant works by several previously neglected authors. The book contributes a new angle from which to appreciate literature of this and other periods in Chinese history
