Handbook of Autobiography / Autofiction

Autobiographical writings have been a major cultural genre from antiquity to the present time. General questions of the literary as, e.g., the relation between literature and reality, truth and fiction, the dependency of author, narrator, and figure, or issues of individual and cultural styles etc., can be studied preeminently in the autobiographical genre. Yet, the tradition of life-writing has, in the course of literary history, developed manifold types and forms. Especially in the globalized age, where the media and other technological / cultural factors contribute to a rapid transformation of lifestyles, autobiographical writing has maintained, even enhanced, its popularity and importanc...

Inside Concentration Camps

Terror was central to the Nazi regime, and the Nazi concentration camps were places of horror where prisoners were dehumanized and robbed of their dignity and where millions were murdered. How did prisoners cope with the brutal and degrading conditions of life within the camps? In this highly original book Maja Suderland takes the reader inside the concentration camps and examines the everyday social life of prisoners - their daily activities and routines, the social relationships and networks they created and the strategies they developed to cope with the harsh conditions and the brutality of the guards. Without overlooking the violence of the camps, the contradictions of camp life or the e...

New Directions in Jewish American and Holocaust Literatures

What does it mean to read, and to teach, Jewish American and Holocaust literatures in the early decades of the twenty-first century? New directions and new forms of expression have emerged, both in the invention of narratives and in the methodologies and discursive approaches taken toward these texts. The premise of this book is that despite moving farther away in time, the Holocaust continues to shape and inform contemporary Jewish American writing. Divided into analytical and pedagogical sections, the chapters present a range of possibilities for thinking about these literatures. Contributors address such genres as biography, the graphic novel, alternate history, midrash, poetry, and third-generation and hidden-child Holocaust narratives. Both canonical and contemporary authors are covered, including Michael Chabon, Nathan Englander, Anne Frank, Dara Horn, Joe Kupert, Philip Roth, and William Styron.

Lot auf der Terrasse des Kempinski oder Der tapfere Pessimist Imre Kertész

Die Monografie »Lot auf der Terrasse des Kempinski« über den ungarischen Autor Imre Kertész (1929-2016) ergänzt die Dissertation »Ein Leben als Artikulation. Die anthropologische Ikonographie der Schriften von Imre Kertész« (Potsdam, 2010), bei deren Fertigstellung Kertész' späte Tagebücher und sein Tagebuchroman »Letzte Einkehr« (2014, dt. 2015) noch nicht vorlagen. Als neue Quellen werden neben diesen Veröffentlichungen, mit denen Kertész sein Lebenswerk abgeschossen hat, auch die 2022 aus seinem Nachlass herausgegebenen frühen Arbeitstagebücher und eine größere Auswahl von Interviews der Jahre 1989-2015 hinzugezogen. Es ist zu sehen, dass Kertész mit dem Schreiben stet...
