Am Wortgrund: Zur Poetik im Werk Göran Tunströms

Göran Tunström (1937-2000), der 1983 für seinen in viele Sprachen übersetzten Roman Juloratoriet (dt. Solveigs Vermächtnis) den Literaturpreis des Nordischen Rats erhielt, ist vor allem als begnadeter Erzähler und als ,fantastischer Realist' in die Literaturgeschichte Schwedens eingegangen. In den Feuilletons wurde er unter anderem "Garcia Márquez des Nordens" genannt. Die vorliegende Studie belegt, dass er nicht nur Geschichten entwirft, sondern dass er in all seinen Texten, ob in der Lyrik, Essayistik, Prosa oder Dramatik, vom Debut an Passagen der Sprachreflexion eingeflochten hat. Durch eine genaue Lektüre dieser Passagen versucht die Arbeit, die buchstäbliche Ästhetik des Worts im Gesamtwerk Tunströms zu rekonstruieren, die von einer Auseinandersetzung mit dem (göttlichen oder biblischen) Wort, über die Frage nach dessen Herkunft und (richtigem) Gebrauch, dem kindlichen Spracherwerb bis hin zum Nachweis bei literarischen Vorbildern reicht. Anhand dieser Rekonstruktion werden Autorgenese und Genealogie des Schreibens bei Tunström erfahrbar.

Marginal Modernity:The Aesthetics of Dependency from Kierkegaard to Joyce

Two ways of understanding the aesthetic organization of literary works have come down to us from the late 18th century and dominate discussions of European modernism today: the aesthetics of autonomy, associated with the self-sufficient work of art, and the aesthetics of fragmentation, practiced by the avant-gardes. In this revisionary study, Leonardo Lisi argues that these models rest on assumptions about the nature of truth and existence that cannot be treated as exhaustive of modern experience. Lisi traces an alternative aesthetics of dependency that provides a different formal structure, philosophical foundation, and historical condition for modernist texts. Taking Europe's Scandinavian ...

Comics and Power

  • Categories: Art

Many introductions to comics scholarship books begin with an anecdote recounting the author’s childhood experiences reading comics, thereby testifying to the power of comics to engage and impact youth, but comics and power are intertwined in a numbers of ways that go beyond concern for children’s reading habits. Comics and Power presents very different methods of studying the complex and diverse relationship between comics and power. Divided into three sections, its 14 chapters discuss how comics interact with, reproduce, and/or challenge existing power structures – from the comics medium and its institutions to discourses about art, subjectivity, identity, and communities. The contributors and their work, as such, represent a new generation of comics research that combines the study of comics as a unique art form with a focus on the ways in which comics – like any other medium – participate in shaping the societies of which they are part.
