A History of Poetics
Since the 1990s, following the end of postmodernism, literary theory has lost much of its dynamics. This book aims at revitalising literary theory exploring two of its historical bases: German poetics and aesthetics. Beginning in the 1770s and ending in the 1950s, the book examines nearly 200 years of this history, thereby providing the reader with a first history of poetics as well as with bibliographies of the subject. Particular attention is paid to the aesthetics and poetics of popular philosophy, of the Hegel-school, empirical and psychological tendencies in the field since the 1860s, the first steps towards a plurality of methods (1890-1930), theoretical confrontations during the Nazi-...

…a unique experiment of ekphrastic poetry where paintings decode poetry and poetry explains paintings in an artistic way.The poems in the collection demystify the paintings and the paintings demythologize the poems which gives a clear comprehension of this artistic collection of the ekphrastic poetry. - Rising Kashmir ...her paintings and sketches stand side by side with Mondal’s words, adding yet another layer to the book. - The Hindu There is no direct anger or nostalgia in the poems, but a hurt expressed as a result of abrasions with life. Mondal has a way of twisting words out of seemingly unrelated contexts, and make things happen in his verse- a foreboding melody of love, recalcitrance, faith and even mistrust. The paintings by Sukrita Paul Kumar representing each poem sustain the poems with the melody- seeking here in life and hereinafter. - Shillong Times
Die Zwischensprache
Im mündlichen Vortrag sieht die französische Lyrikerin Michèle Métail die kreative Endstufe des Schreibens, die vollendete Reflexion über die Sprache. Literatur und Performance sind eng verbunden, viele ihrer Gedichte existieren nicht in geschriebener Form und werden ausschließlich auf Lesungen vorgetragen. Zentrales Thema ihrer Lyrik ist die Erforschung von Sinnesgrenzen. Métail war im Jahr 2000 Gast des Berliner Künstlerprogramms des DAAD, war Stipendiatin im Künstlerhaus Schloss Wiepers-dorf und hatte im Sommersemester 2005 die Samuel-Fischer-Gastprofessur für Literatur am Peter Szondi-Institut der FU Berlin inne. Sie lebt in Südfrankreich.
The Routledge Handbook of Cultural Legal Studies
This handbook provides a comprehensive introduction to the cutting-edge field of cultural legal studies. Cultural legal studies is at the forefront of the legal discipline, questioning not only doctrine or social context, but how the concerns of legality are distributed and encountered through a range of material forms. Growing out of the interdisciplinary turn in critical legal studies and jurisprudence that took place in the latter quarter of the 20th century, cultural legal studies exists at the intersection of a range of traditional disciplinary areas: legal studies, cultural studies, literary studies, jurisprudence, media studies, critical theory, history, and philosophy. It is an area ...
Moving Words
In the decades since the fall of the Berlin Wall, Berlin has re-emerged as a global city in large part thanks to its reputation as a literary city – a place where artists from around the world gather and can make a life. Moving Words foregrounds the many contexts in which life in the city of Berlin is made literary – from old neighbourhood bookshops to new reading circles, NGOs working to secure asylum for writers living in exile to specialized workshops for young migrant poets. Highlighting the differences, tensions, and contradictions of these scenes, this book reveals how literature can be both a site of domination and a resource for resisting and transforming those conditions. By att...

Authors and the World
Authors and the World traces how four core 'modes of authorship' have developed and inflect one another in modern Germany through a series of twenty different case studies, including the work of Thomas Mann, Günter Grass, Anna Seghers, Walter Höllerer, Felicitas Hoppe and Katja Petrowskaja, and original interview material with contemporary writers Ulrike Draesner, Olga Martynova and Ulrike Almut Sandig. 'Modes of authorship' are attitudes taken towards being an author that can be seen both in what an individual author does and in how a particular literary tradition or trend is perceived and mediated by others both within and beyond Pierre Bourdieu's literary field. Consequently, they delib...

Literaturpreise, Stipendien und Dozenturen, Lesereihen und Festivals – die Förderung von Literatur als wesentlicher Bestandteil unserer Kultur, in der sich unsere Gesellschaft widerspiegelt und durch die sie geprägt wird – sind unverzichtbar. Aber wie leben Autorinnen und Autoren mit Stipendien und Auszeichnungen, wie verändern diese ihr Schreiben oder ermöglichen es erst? Was ist kanonbildend an der Hervorhebung Einzelner und ihrer Werke durch Preise oder wo wird diese selbst zum Thema? Verschiedene, auch kritische Stimmen aus Wissenschaft und Literatur geben Einblicke in die Geschichte und die Praxis der Förderungskultur, unternehmen eine Bestandsaufnahme und versuchen einen Ausblick auf die Zukunft.
