Ingardeniana II
This Ingardenia volume is the second in the Analecta Husserliana series that is entirely devoted to the phenomenology of Roman Ingarden. The first was volume IV (1976). Twenty years after Ingarden's death, this volume demonstrates that the Polish phenomenologist's contribution to philosophy and literary scholarship has received world-wide attention. His ideas have proven especially fruitful for the definition of the structure of the literary work of art and the subsequent recognition of its characteristic features. Of all the early phenomenologists who were students of Husserl, it is Ingarden whose work has faithfully pursued the original tenet that language "holds" the essence of the life-w...
Escaping Kakania
Escaping Kakania is about fascinating characters—soldiers, doctors, scientists, writers, painters—who traveled from their eastern European homelands to colonial Southeast Asia. Their stories are told by experts on different countries in the two regions, who bring diverse approaches into a conversation that crosses disciplinary and national borders. The 14 chapters deal with the diverse encounters of eastern Europeans with the many faces of colonial southeast Asia. Some essays directly engage with post-colonial studies, contributing to an ongoing critical re-evaluation of eastern European “semi-peripheral” (non-)involvement in colonialism. Other chapters disclose a range of perspectiv...
Studies on Western Esotericism in Central and Eastern Europe
These papers examine how occult and esoteric themes appear in visual and verbal media, connecting to intellectual history, literature, the arts, present day pop culture, and religious practices. The topics range from the witchcraft motives in the love poetry of the 15th-century Humanist poet, Conrad Celtis; through the activities of Polish and Russian theosophists; Croatian, Greek, Polish painters of the spiritual; the philosophy of wine by the Hungarian esoteric philosopher Béla Hamvas; to contemporary Serbian magic and neo-shamanism. Two studies touch upon the influence of Freemasonry and the Kabbalah in Western esotericism, and, although these are not specifically Central European topics, they provide parallel perspectives to what the other papers of the collection are investigating.

Der weibliche Blick auf den Orient
Der von Edward Said angeregte Orientalismus-Diskurs über den westlichen Blick auf den Orient weist auf die überwiegend durch Stereotype und Vorurteile geprägte Betrachtungsweise des Okzidents hin. Dabei geht Said stillschweigend von einem männlichen Diskurs aus, gestützt auf zumeist von Männern verfasste Texte und Bilder - wie etwa der Topos von Feminisierung und Sexualisierung des Orients als des unterlegenen, exotischen Anderen. Wie aber nehmen Frauen den Orient wahr? Verstärken und unterstützen sie die männliche Sichtweise oder konterkarieren oder variieren sie sie? Forschungsgegenstand dieses Bandes sind Aufzeichnungen europäischer Frauen, die in Begleitung ihrer Männer oder a...
