Book excerpt: Good housing proved to be the savior of the working world in the last pandemic. The term "family" could also be understood much more broadly today: Neighborhoods, co-living, working groups have taken on much of the characteristics of a close-knit, jointly socialized group. Three presented projects reflect three different rhythms of life of three families between their privacy and the public. Three different ambiences, open and closed spaces, offer a range of uses lived through self-determination.

Download or read book A Nation of Victims written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2015-06-29 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The re-emergence of the issue of wartime suffering to the fore of German public discourse represents the greatest shift in German memory culture since the Historikerstreit of the 1980s. The (international) attention and debates triggered by, for example, W.G. Sebald’s Luftkrieg und Literatur, Günter Grass’s Im Krebsgang, Jörg Friedrich’s Der Brand testify to a change in focus away from the victims of National Socialism to the traumatic experience of the ‘perpetrator collective’ and its legacies. The volume brings together German, English and Israeli literary and film scholars and historians addressing issues surrounding the representation of German wartime suffering from the immediate post-war period to the present in literature, film and public commemorative discourse. Split into four sections, the volume discusses the representation of Germans as victims in post-war literature and film, the current memory politics of the Bund der Vertriebenen, the public commemoration of the air raids on Hamburg and Dresden and their representation in film, photography, historiography and literature, the impact and reception of W.G. Sebald’s Luftkrieg und Literatur, the representation of flight and expulsion in contemporary writing, the problem of empathy in representations of Germans as victims and the representation of suffering and National Socialism in Oliver Hirschbiegel’s film Der Untergang.
Download or read book The EU German Turkish Triangle written by Funda Tekin and published by Nomos Verlag. This book was released on 2022-11-11 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Um eine solide Bewertung der Beziehungen zwischen der EU und der Türkei und ihrer Zukunftsaussichten zu ermöglichen, konzentriert sich dieser Band auf die Dreiecksbeziehung zwischen dem Block und der Türkei einerseits und den bilateralen Beziehungen zwischen Deutschland und der Türkei andererseits. Auf der Grundlage des historischen Institutionalismus geht er von der Annahme aus, dass eine grundlegende Umstrukturierung der Beziehungen zwischen der EU und der Türkei "kritische Wendepunkte" erfordert, die einen "Paradigmenwechsel" nach sich ziehen. Es wird der politische Diskurs über die Beziehungen zwischen der EU und der Türkei dekonstruiert, um die wichtigsten Wahrnehmungen und Narrative der Beziehungen zwischen der EU und der Türkei nicht nur in Deutschland und der Türkei, sondern auch auf EU-Ebene in Brüssel zu identifizieren, zu analysieren und zu bewerten. Die analytischen Beiträge zielen auf die Beantwortung der allgemeinen Fragen ab, ob und zu welchem Zeitpunkt ein Paradigmenwechsel zu erkennen ist; wenn ja, was die treibenden Faktoren eines solchen Wechsels sind; und ob sich die Narrative der EU-Türkei-Beziehungen im Laufe der Zeit verändern. Mit Beiträgen von Esra Çengel, Atila Eralp, Denise Ersoy, Hanna-Lisa Hauge, Ebru Ece Özbey, Ardahan Özkan Gedikli, Moritz Rau, Anke Schönlau, Mirja Schröder, Nurdan Selay Bedir, Özgehan Şenyuva, Funda Tekin, Helena Weise und Wolfgang Wessels.

Book excerpt: With the opening up of the East in the autumn of 1989 claims were being made, on the one hand, that German literature had never, in fact, been divided, while others were proclaiming the end of East and West German literatures as they had existed, and the beginning of a new era.
Download or read book Beyond the Biblical Horizon written by J.Cheryl Exum and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2023-12-28 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent years have witnessed an upsurge of interest in relating the Bible to the worlds of literature and the visual arts. How is the Bible portrayed in the arts and how do the arts affect what we know, or think we know, about the Bible? In this provocative and wide-ranging collection, the eight contributors engage in a lively and fruitful conversation with the work of novelists, artists, filmmakers, and critics. Topics treated in this collection include the Bible and film, from Frank Capra movies of the 30s and 40s to such Hollywood epics as The Robe and The Ten Commandments; the Bible and literature, focusing particularly on the story of David and Bathsheba in recent fiction; and the Bible and painting, with specific studies of Rembrandt as painter and etcher and the twentieth-century German artist Lovis Corinth and more generalized discussion of paintings of King David throughout the centuries and the representation of the sexuality of Jesus in Renaissance art. Contributors include Joel Rosenberg, Erica Sheen, Martin O'Kane, Ilse Müllner, Johannes Taschner, Clive Marsh, J. Cheryl Exum, and David Jasper.

Download or read book New Music New Allies written by Amy C. Beal and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2006-07-04 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New Music, New Allies documents how American experimental music and its practitioners came to prominence in the West German cultural landscape between the end of the Second World War in 1945 and the reunification of East and West Germany in 1990. Beginning with the reeducation programs implemented by American military officers during the postwar occupation of West Germany and continuing through the cultural policies of the Cold War era, this broad history chronicles German views on American music, American composers’ pursuit of professional opportunities abroad, and the unprecedented dissemination and support their music enjoyed through West German state-subsidized radio stations, new music festivals, and international exchange programs. Framing the biographies of prominent American composer-performers within the aesthetic and ideological contexts of the second half of the twentieth century, Amy C. Beal follows the international careers of John Cage, Henry Cowell, Earle Brown, Morton Feldman, David Tudor, Frederic Rzewski, Christian Wolff, Steve Reich, Pauline Oliveros, Conlon Nancarrow, and many others to Donaueschingen, Darmstadt, Cologne, Bremen, Berlin, and Munich.

Download or read book The Turns of Translation Studies written by Mary Snell-Hornby and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2006-06-09 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What’s new in Translation Studies? In offering a critical assessment of recent developments in the young discipline, this book sets out to provide an answer, as seen from a European perspective today. Many “new” ideas actually go back well into the past, and the German Romantic Age proves to be the starting-point. The main focus lies however on the last 20 years, and, beginning with the cultural turn of the 1980s, the study traces what have turned out since then to be ground-breaking contributions (new paradigms) as against what was only a change in position on already established territory (shifting viewpoints). Topics of the 1990s include nonverbal communication, gender-based Translation Studies, stage translation, new fields of interpreting studies and the effects of new technologies and globalization (including the increasingly dominant role of English). The author’s aim is to stimulate discussion and provoke further debate on the current profile and future perspectives of Translation Studies.
Download or read book African Thoughts on Colonial and Neo Colonial Worlds written by Anaïs Angelo and published by Neofelis Verlag. This book was released on 2015-10-16 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book shows the many facets of African engagements with the world. It starts from the premise that current global asymmetries ascribing Africa to a marginalized position are the effects of colonial and imperial pasts still lingering on. The decolonization process of the post-war structure which privileges the West in both political and economic terms. While new dependencies emerged, several old bonds were maintained and continue to influence African affairs quite strikingly. It is appropriate, then, to call these continued unequal relations between Africa and the West frankly 'neo-colonial'. This designation applies all the more as the post-colonial states of Africa inherited a complex legacy of foreign rule – colonial frontiers, colonial languages, colonial infrastructure and authoritarian institutions, as well as the social intricacies and imbalances so characteristic of the 'colonial situation'. The contributions to this volume look at various aspects of these complex processes from intellectual history perspectives. The topics dealt with are manifold. Contributions deliberately attack key themes, ideas and discourses of an intellectual history of Africa ('state', 'modernity', 'development', 'dependency', 'art', etc.), and introduce important engaged public intellectuals from Africa and the African diaspora. What is Africa, and how is she related to the rest of the world? How can she overcome her internal problems and her external dependencies? – These are perennial questions critically tackled by Africans throughout the 20th century. Dealing with various cases looked at from a variety of perspectives, the contributions to this book offer original insights into the intellectual history of Africa.
Download or read book What Remains written by Gerald Fetz and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2022-06-10 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arguably the most important—and influential—German woman writer of the last century, Christa Wolf was long heralded as "die gesamtdeutsche Autorin," an author for all of Germany; but, after 1989 in unified Germany, Wolf found herself suddenly embroiled in controversies that challenged her integrity and consigned her to an ideologically suspect identity as "DDR Schriftstellerin” (GDR writer) or “Staatsdichterin” (state poet). What Remains: Responses to the Legacy of Christa Wolf asks the question of what truly remains of her legacy in the annals of contemporary German culture and history. Unlike most of what appeared in the wake of Wolf’s death, however, the contributions to this international volume seek neither to monumentalize her nor to dismantle her stature, but to employ a range of methodologies—comparative, intertextual, psychoanalytic, historical, transcultural—to offer sensitive assessments of Wolf’s major literary texts, as well as of her lesser known work in genres such as film and essay.
