Forms of List-Making: Epistemic, Literary, and Visual Enumeration

This open access book attempts to show that an examination of the list’s formal features has the potential to produce genuine insights into the production of knowledge, the poetics of literature and the composition of visual art. Following a conceptual introduction, the twelve single-authored chapters place the list in a variety of well-researched contexts, including ancient Roman historiography, medieval painting, Enlightenment periodicals, nineteenth-century botanical geography, American Beat poetry and contemporary photobooks. With its interdisciplinary approach, this book is a unique contribution to an emerging field dedicated to the study of lists.

Abolitionist Cosmopolitanism: Reconfiguring Gender, Race, and Nation in American Antislavery Literature

  • Publisher: BRILL

Abolitionist Cosmopolitanism redefines the potential of American antislavery literature as a cultural and political imaginary by situating antislavery literature in specific transnational contexts and highlighting the role of women as producers, subjects, and audiences of antislavery literature. Pia Wiegmink draws attention to locales, authors, and webs of entanglement between texts, ideas, and people. Perceived through the lens of gender and transnationalism, American antislavery literature emerges as a body of writing that presents profoundly reconfigured literary imaginations of freedom and equality in the United States prior to the Civil War.

Denn die Nacht bringt das Meer. Nordsee-Thriller

Ein Leuchtturm an der Nordsee – hier versucht Marit, ihrem Alltag zu entfliehen. Doch nachts rauben nicht nur der tosende Sturm und die um den Turm peitschenden Wellen ihr den Schlaf. Sie fühlt sich beobachtet, als würde jemand in dem alten Gemäuer herumschleichen. Auch werden in ihr düstere Erinnerungen wach. Vor Jahren wäre ihre Tochter Janna hier beinahe ertrunken. Im Dorf trifft sie auf kauzige Küstenbewohner, die von Geistern und Meermännern sprechen. Marit steht vor einem Rätsel: Was hat es mit den vielen ertrunkenen Kindern an diesem Ort auf sich? Warum fuhr Janna damals ganz allein aufs Meer hinaus? Und dann kommt erneut ein junges Mädchen zu Tode ...
