Download or read book Negotiations of Migration written by Annimari Juvonen and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2021-08-23 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At a time when migration is mostly discussed in terms of “conflict” and “crisis”, it is decidedly important to acknowledge the discursive traditions, narrative patterns, and conceptual categories that continue to inform how migration is represented, analyzed and theorized in contemporary Europe. This volume focuses on the potential of artistic and critical practices to challenge hegemonic framings of migration and embrace the ambivalence inherent in migration as a conflictual, often violent, yet also liberating uprooting. By placing special emphasis on “peripheral” perspectives and subject positions, the volume provides new insights into topics such as belonging and exclusion, the “migrant crisis”, and memory. By bringing into dialogue creative practices and academic discourses, it explores how new modes of seeing and theorizing may emerge through experiences and representations of migration. Situated within the field of literary and cultural studies, it complements historical and social analyses in the emerging interdisciplinary field of migration studies.
Download or read book Theatre in the Context of the Yugoslav Wars written by Jana Dolečki and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-11-19 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book assembles texts by renowned academics and theatre artists who were professionally active during the wars in former Yugoslavia. It examines examples of how various forms of theatre and performance reacted to the conflicts in Serbia, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Slovenia, and Kosovo while they were ongoing. It explores state-funded National Theatre activities between escapism and denial, the theatre aesthetics of protest and resistance, and symptomatic shifts and transformations in the production of theatre under wartime circumstances, both in theory and in practice. In addition, it looks beyond the period of conflict itself, examining the aftermath of war in contemporary theatre and performance, such as by considering Ivan Vidić’s war trauma plays, the art campaigns of the international feminist organization Women in Black, and Peter Handke’s play Voyage by Dugout. The introduction explores correlations between the contributions and initiates a reflection on the further development of the research field. Overall, the volume provides new perspectives and previously unpublished research in the fields of theory and historiography of theatre, as well as Southeast European Studies.
Download or read book Making German Jewish Literature Anew written by Katja Garloff and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2022-12-06 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Making German Jewish Literature Anew, Katja Garloff traces the emergence of a new Jewish literature in Germany and Austria from 1990 to the present. The rise of new generations of authors who identify as both German and Jewish, and who often sustain additional affiliations with places such as France, Russia, or Israel, affords a unique opportunity to analyze the foundational moments of diasporic literature. Making German Jewish Literature Anew is structured around a series of founding gestures: performing authorship, remaking memory, and claiming places. Garloff contends that these founding gestures are literary strategies that reestablish the very possibility of a German Jewish literature several decades after the Holocaust. Making German Jewish Literature Anew offers fresh interpretations of second-generation authors such as Maxim Biller, Doron Rabinovici, and Barbara Honigmann as well as of third-generation authors, many of whom come from Eastern European and/or mixed-religion backgrounds. These more recent writers include Benjamin Stein, Lena Gorelik, and Katja Petrowskaja. Throughout the book, Garloff asks what exactly marks a given text as Jewish—the author's identity, intended audience, thematic concerns, or stylistic choices—and reflects on existing definitions of Jewish literature.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Palgrave Handbook of Theatre and Migration provides a wide survey of theatre and performance practices related to the experience of global movements, both in historical and contemporary contexts.

The book is structured in six sections, the first of which is dedicated to the major theoretical concepts related to the field of theatre and migration including exile, refuge, displacement, asylum seeking, colonialism, human rights, globalization, and nomadism. The subsequent sections are devoted to several dozen case studies across various geographies and time periods that highlight, describe and analyse different theatre practices related to migration. The volume serves as a prestigious reference work to help theatre practitioners, students, scholars, and educators navigate the complex field of theatre and migration.

Successes in partnerships with unequal cultural institutions are analyzed, and concrete strategies for action are shown on the basis of eleven documented productions.

Download or read book Public Spheres of Resonance written by Anne Fleig and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-10-08 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To understand the profound changes in the modes of public political debate over the past decade, this volume develops a new conception of public spheres as spaces of resonance emerging from the power of language to affect and to ascribe and instill collective emotion. Political discourse is no longer confined to traditional media, but increasingly takes place in fragmented and digital public spheres. At the same time, the modes of political engagement have changed: discourse is said to increasingly rely on strategies of emotionalization and to be deeply affective at its core. This book meticulously shows how public spheres are rooted in the emotional, bodily, and affective dimensions of language, and how language – in its capacity to affect and to be affected – produces those dynamics of affective resonance that characterize contemporary forms of political debate. It brings together scholars from the humanities and social sciences and focuses on two fields of inquiry: publics, politics, and media in Part I, and language and artistic inquiry in Part II. The thirteen chapters provide a balanced composition of theoretical and methodological considerations, focusing on highly illustrative case studies and on different artistic practices. The volume is an indispensable source for researchers and postgraduate students in cultural studies, literary studies, sociology, and political science. It likewise appeals to practitioners seeking to develop an in-depth understanding of affect in contemporary political debate.

Download or read book Migration written by Doris Bachmann-Medick and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2018-07-23 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent debates on migration have demonstrated the important role of concepts in academic and political discourse. The contributions to this collection revisit established analytical categories in the study of migration such as border regimes, orders of belonging, coloniality, translation, trans/national digital culture and memory. Exploring notions, images and realities of migration in their cultural framings, this volume sheds light on the powerful work of these concepts. Including perspectives on migration from history, visual studies, pedagogy, literary and cultural studies, cultural anthropology and sociology, it explores the complex scholarly and popular notions of migration with particular focus on their often unspoken assumptions and political implications. Revisiting established analytical tools in the study of migration, the interdisciplinary contributions explore new approaches and point to the importance of conceptual nuance extending beyond academic discourse.
Download or read book Theatre and Internationalization written by Ulrike Garde and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-10-29 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Theatre and Internationalization examines how internationalization affects the processes and aesthetics of theatre, and how this art form responds dramatically and thematically to internationalization beyond the stage. With central examples drawn from Australia and Germany from the 1930s to the present day, the book considers theatre and internationalization through a range of theoretical lenses and methodological practices, including archival research, aviation history, theatre historiography, arts policy, organizational theory, language analysis, academic-practitioner insights, and literary-textual studies. While drawing attention to the ways in which theatre and internationalization might be contributing productively to each other and to the communities in which they operate, it also acknowledges the limits and problematic aspects of internationalization. Taking an unusually wide approach to theatre, the book includes chapters by specialists in popular commercial theatre, disability theatre, Indigenous performance, theatre by and for refugees and other migrants, young people as performers, opera and operetta, and spoken art theatre. An excellent resource for academics and students of theatre and performance studies, especially in the fields of spoken theatre, opera and operetta studies, and migrant theatre, Theatre and Internationalization explores how theatre shapes and is shaped by international flows of people, funds, practices, and works.

Download or read book The Many Voices of Europe written by Gisela Brinker-Gabler and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2020-01-20 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume explores the rich, evolving body of contemporary cultural practices that reflect on a European project of diversity, new dynamics between and across cultures in Europe, and its interactions with the world. There have been calls across Europe for both traditional national identities and new forms of identity and community, assertions of regionalized identity and declarations of multiculturalism and multilingualism. These essays respond to this critical moment by analyzing the literature of migration as a (re)writing of European subjects. They ask fundamental questions from a variety of theoretical and critical standpoints: How do migrants write new identities into and against old national (meta)narratives? How do they interrogate constructions of identity? What kinds of literary experiments are emerging in this unstable context, e.g. in the graphic novel and avant-garde film?This collection makes a unique contribution to contemporary European literary studies by taking an interdisciplinary, transnational and comparative perspective, thereby addressing readers from diverse disciplinary backgrounds and stimulating new research on the ambitious writing and thinking taking place across the borders of Europe today.
Download or read book Postmigration written by Anna Meera Gaonkar and published by transcript Verlag. This book was released on 2021-09-30 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept of »postmigration« has recently gained importance in the context of European societies' obsession with migration and integration along with emerging new forms of exclusion and nationalisms. This book introduces ongoing debates on the developing concept of »postmigration« and how it can be applied to arts and culture. While the concept has mainly gained traction in the cultural scene in Berlin, Germany, the contributions expand the field of study by attending to cultural expressions in literature, theatre, film, and art across various European societies, such as the United Kingdom, France, Finland, Denmark, and Germany. By doing so, the contributions highlight this concept's potential and show how it can offer new perspectives on transformations caused by migration.
Download or read book Postmigration Transculturality and the Transversal Politics of Art written by Anne Ring Petersen and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-11-16 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book to develop a postmigrant analytical perspective for the study of art, concentrating on how postmigration reopens the study of contemporary art and migration. The book introduces art historians and other scholars with a methodological interest in cultural analysis to the innovative concept of postmigration, offering a comprehensive introduction to the various meanings and uses of the term as well as translating it methodologically to an art historical context. The book analyses art projects from Denmark, Germany and Great Britain, which address some of the current challenges to European societies of immigration, and by drawing on theory from fields such as migration studies, transcultural studies and feminist, postcolonial and political theory, as well as re-engaging established concepts such as imagination, commemoration, belonging, identity, racialization, community, public space and participation. The book will be of interest to scholars working in art history, art and politics, migration studies, and transcultural studies.

Download or read book Wir und die Anderen written by Anna Schober and published by Herbert von Halem Verlag. This book was released on 2020-12-02 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bildmedien wie Filme, Skulpturen, Fotografien, Comics oder die verschiedenen, im Internet zirkulierenden visuellen Inszenierungen stellen Orte dar, wo nahe an den Sinnen emotional aufgeladene und oft ambivalente Bilder in Bezug auf Identität und Andersheit verbreitet werden. Dabei werden sowohl Selbst- als auch Fremdbilder figuriert, zelebriert oder auch problematisiert. Zugleich fungiert Fremdheit vor allem in jüngerer Zeit vermehrt als Spiegel des Eigenen – wovon zum Beispiel Bilder des exotischen oder pittoresken Nomaden Zeugnis geben. Der Band setzt sich in pluraler Weise mit Sichtbarkeiten in Zusammenhang mit Identitätskonstitutionen auseinander und vereint demensprechend Beiträge aus verschiedensten kulturwissenschaftlichen Diskursschulen. Er zeichnet nach, wie Vorstellungen und Gewissheiten in Bezug auf Selbst und Andersheit und darauf, was als das Eigene und das Fremde gilt, auch über Artefakte der Visuellen Kultur entstehen und in Zirkulation gehalten werden. Die Beiträge thematisieren aber auch, wo und in welcher Weise Bildmedien an diesbezüglichen Auseinandersetzungen und Verschiebungen beteiligt sind. Denn Bilder können zu Ereignissen werden, die Konflikte anstoßen und Übergänge ("Konversionen") zwischen Weltsichten provozieren. Sie können unsere Vorstellungskraft aber auch anregen und das Gestalten weiterer Bilder in Gang setzen. Ein Fokus des Bandes liegt darauf, wie Bildmedien an aktuellen politischen und kulturalisierten Auseinandersetzungen beteiligt sind.
