"Замок" Франца Кафки: постмодернистский дискурс в современной австрийской литературе

Author(s): E.M. Shastina,G. F. Frolov / Language(s): Russian / Issue: 1/2018

The purpose of the paper is to follow the reception of F. Kafka’s “The Castle” in contemporary Austrian literature based on the following novels: “The Peaches Killers” (“Die Pfirsichtöter”, 1972) by Alfred Kolleritsch, “Among the Bieresch“ (“Bei den Bieresch”, 1979) by Klaus Hoffer, and “Into the Castle” (“Ins Schloss”, 2004) by Marianne Gruber. The attention has been focused on the writers, whose creative manner reflects the tendencies in contemporary Western European literary process – from avant-gardism (A. Kolleritsch) to postmodernism (K. Hoffer, M. Gruber). The intertextual links between the works under the consideration and F. Kafka’s novel have been established. The “Kafkaesque discourse” suggests that there exist direct and inverse links between the author and the reader, the extra-textual tradition and reality. The comparative methodology has been used to reveal the mechanism of reception of the “Kafkaesque discourse” in contemporary Austrian literature, as well as to draw conclusions about the ways the authors treat ontological questions. Particular emphasis has been placed on the narrative strategies of Austrian literary avant-gardism, postmodern discourse of the second half of the 20th and the beginning of the 21st centuries, typological similarity of the analyzed novels, which seems productive for understanding of the influence of literature during the period of modernism on the emergence of a postmodern paradigm in the German-speaking literary space.

(Psiho)patološki fenomeni u Ekstazama Mele Hartwig

(Psiho)patološki fenomeni u Ekstazama Mele Hartwig

Author(s): Eldi Grubišić Pulišelić / Language(s): Croatian / Issue: 2/2021

The focus of this paper is on (psycho)pathological phenomena that connect female heroines from four literary works by the Austrian writer Mela Hartwig. The link between them is the position of protagonists in relation to social values, standards and expectations, i.e. their outsider status. In the novellas The Crime, The Records of an Ugly Woman, and The Fantastical Paragraph, the heroines must confront different paradigms of the misogynist Austrian culture of the early twentieth century. In The Witch, a novella set in the seventeenth century, the social constellation is somewhat different, hence the heroine is confronted with modified concepts of power. Hartwig examines various (psycho)pathological phenomena that occur in her female characters and discovers (extra)institutional mechanisms that establish or erase the boundary between normal/acceptable and sick/unacceptable behavior. Her heroines react to oppression by attempting suicide, promiscuous behavior, delusions, retreating into a parallel world of fantasies, constructing supernatural experiences, and even by murder. Psychopathological phenomena that become an integral part of their identity and accompany their physical and mental expression, project their desperate call for help. Their struggle ends in defeat because as lonely individuals, they cannot triumph over the power embodied by institutional authorities. In her texts, the author shows the anxious, depressive, and even psychotic reality of women, the shocking and/or bizarre situations she literarizes allow readers to reconstruct the atmosphere of an era that is, paradoxically, in written sources and collective memory known under the phrase The Golden Twenties.

ADALBERT STIFTER’İN DER HOCHWALD ADLI YAPITINDA İZLEKSEL ÖĞELER: DOĞA VE ORMAN

ADALBERT STIFTER’İN DER HOCHWALD ADLI YAPITINDA İZLEKSEL ÖĞELER: DOĞA VE ORMAN

Author(s): Yıldız Aydın / Language(s): Turkish / Issue: 07/2016

Adalbert Stifter (1805-1868) is one of the controversial authors of the 19th century. Underappreciated in his time, he was praised and his works listed as one of the most important works of German literature by Friedrich Nietzsche and Thomas Mann whereas Friedrich Hebbel and Hugo von Hofmannsthal find him boring. The criticism towards him is usually centered around his focus on nature and forest depictions and a disregard for the inner worlds of his characters. In German literature, discussed in the context of realism and the Biedermeier era, the author follows the reflection theory of the realist era by representing his observations directly and in terms of content, he reflects the Biedermeier era’s features such as depictions of familial settings, peaceful life, commitment to nature and religious belief and patriotism. As in all of his works, nature and forest hold a special place in Stifter’s Der Hochwald: he shares his observations about trees, leaves, soil, animals of the forest, meteorological events such as rain and storm in great detail. In this study, we analyze how nature was represented, its importance for the narrator and the characters, predominant theme of loneliness in the novel, shelter and maturation themes in the context of thematic criticism. On the other hand, does the author actually not take heed of the emotional and psychological aspects as per the criticisms towards his work or does he envision it in a different manner? We are searching for answers to these kinds of questions via historical and autobiographical references.

Alexander Sacher-Masoch -  Maslinici u plamenu

Alexander Sacher-Masoch - Maslinici u plamenu

Author(s): Nadira Puškar / Language(s): Bosnian / Issue: 7/2010

Austrijski pisac Alexander Sacher- Masoch rođen je 18. studenoga 1901. godine u Wittkowitzu, Moravska. U Moravskoj se rodio igrom slučaja. Njegov otac, Arthur Wolfgang Ritter von Sacher- Masoch, po profesiji časnik, često je mijenjao odredišta službovanja. Alexanderova ljubav prema književnosti i pisanju nije slučajna. Njegov otac se također okušao u spisateljskim vodama i bio poprilično uspješan. Pisao je pod pseudonimom Michael Zorn i objavio nekoliko romana i niz kratkih priča. Po njegovom romanu Izmedu rijeke i stepe (1936), 1938. godine je snimljen film sa Attilom Hörbiger u glavnoj ulozi.

Anđeo Devinskih elegija

Anđeo Devinskih elegija

Author(s): Jelena Knežević / Language(s): English / Issue: 1-2/2010

The angel of Rilke’s Duino Elegies is a multiple symbol. As a human and a poet, Rilke strives to move from the despair of his time toward the ideal. He is a human who shares the same fate on the earth with his contemporaries, but he is also an aware poet, who, possessed by existential fear, sees and feels more deeply than others. As a poet, he is sentenced to struggle with a lack of creative power and inspiration. As with Holderlin, two levels of meaning overlap at the point where the poetry and the existence meet. The angel is therefore at least a double symbol: it represents an ideal harmonious being that gives itself over unconditionally to its own feelings (a distant and unrealizable ideal to the people of poet’s indifferent age).

ANDREAS OKOPENKO, DIE ÖSTERREICHISCHE NACHKRIEGSLITERATUR UND DAS POLITISCHE

ANDREAS OKOPENKO, DIE ÖSTERREICHISCHE NACHKRIEGSLITERATUR UND DAS POLITISCHE

Author(s): Arno Herberth,Laura Tezarek / Language(s): German / Issue: 18/1/2017

Art and literature have always played a subordinated function in autocratic types of government, fostering the doctrines laid down by a central power. In the literary era of enlightenment, romanticism and modernity, strong eruptive forces appeared that oppose traditional literary genres of the classical representative system. Surrealistic plays on words took those counter movements to extremes by claiming equal status for linguistic signs, regardless of their semantic content. After the catastrophe of the Second World War, Austrian writers adopted these radical concepts of classical modernity. However, Andreas Okopenko’s (1930–2010) position is not easy to define and does not fall into a particular literary trend or school of thought. He does not affiliate with a more radical avant-garde, such as the “Wiener Gruppe”, but also distances himself from conservative and unprogressive trends in Austrian literature in the 1950s and 60s. Although his work is provocative with regard to formal aspects it does reflect socio-critical and political awareness.

Austrijska književna scena 2019.

Austrijska književna scena 2019.

Author(s): Vahidin Preljević / Language(s): Bosnian / Issue: 1-4/2020

Nema sumnje da će za austrijsku kao i književnost njemačkog govornog područja u cjelini 2019. godina sigurno biti zabilježena kao jedna od značajnijih u njenoj novijoj historiji. Protekle godine je Peter Handke kao drugi Austrijanac, nakon Elfriede Jelinek, dobio Nobelovu nagradu za književnost. Dakako Elias Canetti, inače rođen kao sefardski Jevrej u bugarskom Ruseu, također se ponekad pribraja austrijskoj književnosti, iako se u Nobelovom komitetu vodio kao britanski državljanin. Handkeova nagrada je zbog političkog djelovanja autora u bivšoj Jugoslaviji izazvala kontroverze i veliku književnu debatu svjetskih razmjera, dakako i u njemačkom govornom području, te je podsjetila na staro pitanje šta književnost zapravo smije, gdje su granice umjetnosti u odnosu na historijsku istinu i političko-ideološku manipulaciju. O toj raspravi, u kojoj je i u našim i u austrijskim i njemačkim medijima sudjelovao i potpisnik ovih redova, već se dosta pisalo, a vjerovatno će njeni efekti uključujući i paralelne reakcije na govor Saše Stanišića na Frankfurtskom sajmu knjiga, sada preći na akademsku razinu i postati predmet književnopovijesnih proučavanja.

Bancbanus – ungarisch, österreichisch, kroatisch

Bancbanus – ungarisch, österreichisch, kroatisch

Zur Inszenierung eines umstrittenen historischen Stoffes im 19. Jahrhundert

Author(s): Marijan Bobinac / Language(s): German / Issue: 24/2015

This article presents three dramatics adaptations of the same historic material: the medieval Hungarian aristocrat Bánk (ger. Bancbanus, cro. Benko Bot) appears as the hero in historical plays by the Hungarian author József Katona, German-Austrian Franz Grillparzer and Croatian Franjo Marković. Although these three authors differ greatly in their aesthetic and political positions, they nevertheless share a joint goal: to prompt reflection on the joint (super)national state design against the backdrop of nation building in the Danube Monarchy and the related strengthening of centripetal tendencies.

BECOMING THE POSTHUMAN: THE DESTABILISATION OF THE SUBJECT IN THOMAS GLAVINIC’S NIGHT WORK

Author(s): Branka B. Ognjanović / Language(s): English / Issue: 2/2020

The paper provides an insight into the destabilisation of the subject and the emergence of the posthuman condition in the novel Night Work (Die Arbeit der Nacht, 2006) by Austrian writer Thomas Glavinic. The first part briefly discusses previous analyses of the novel and the definitions of posthumanism as an umbrella term for a heterogeneous theory dedicated to the questions of what follows after the re-consideration of the humanist ideals and after decentring the human. The posthuman is interpreted as non-fixed, in the state of constant reconstruction as opposed to the humanist subject’s fixedness and integrity. The analysis examines the ‘uncanny’ setting of the novel and the power of survival in the face of death, which becomes the protagonist’s point of demise and divergence from consciousness and rationality. The urban environment devoid of all organic life replaces the Other applied traditionally to other humans. The Sleeper as the nightly doppelgänger and the filming of the environment further add to the transgression of the boundaries between material and immaterial, the living and the non-living, the real and the dreamlike/artificial, and ultimately determine the protagonist’s posthuman existence in the state of ‘becoming’ rather than ‘being’.

Colloquia Comparativa Litterarum

Colloquia Comparativa Litterarum

Frequency: 1 issues / Country: Bulgaria

Colloquia Comparativa Litterarum is published by Sofia University St. Kliment Ohridski and edited by the literary scholars of the Balkan Studies Masters and Doctoral Studies Program (Department of General, Indo-European, and Balkan Linguistics with the Faculty of Slavic Studies). This journal aims to encourage the study of Comparative Literature. The similarities and overlaps between less popular literatures and the well-researched canonical phenomena remain rather unexplored. Colloquia Comparativa Litterarum wants to give priority to such issues; to reconsider the clichéd notions of centres and peripheries, of one-way influences, temporary delays and topic deficiencies. It makes sense to seek the meaning of common affinities and trends, in other words – to look at what is positive, stimulating, and creative about the communication between literary and cultural phenomena. In fact, the Balkans are home to just a small share of the less researched literatures in the field of Comparative Literature. In Europe, we often know too little about our neighbours, unless they happen to be the French, German or British literatures.

Colloquia Comparativa Litterarum expresses itself in three languages: Bulgarian, French and English. It provides new opportunities for communication between scholars of Comparative Literature with the aim of a complete, conceptual and terminological understanding of new ideas within our field of research.

Corona ve Paul Celan Ya da Aşk ve Pandemi

Corona ve Paul Celan Ya da Aşk ve Pandemi

Author(s): Funda Kızıl Emer / Language(s): Turkish / Issue: 103/2020

The year 2020 has already taken place in history pages as a year of pandemic in which the coronavirus outbreak has taken millions of lives all over the world. This year also coincides with the 50th anniversary of the death of Paul Celan (1920-1970), one of the well-known poets of the post-war Austrian lyric. Interestingly, Celan named his poem Corona, which he wrote seventy-two years ago. The year 1948 corresponds to three years after the end of the Second World War in world history. In Celan’s personal history these years coincide with tough times, when he emigrated to Czernowitz, Bucharest and then Vienna after surviving the Nazi death camp where his parents were sacrificed. The friendships that Celan built here with the writers around the literature in Vienna, especially meeting the Austrian poet Ingeborg Bachmann (1926-1973), constitute a turning point in his life. Two great poets experience passionate love. This poem of Celan carries traces of this stormy love in 1948. The main purpose of this study is to analyze this poem and also to investigate whether there is a relationship between Corona and Celan’s poem with the same title, which is known as the name of the pandemic virus that has killed millions of people today. In this way, it is aimed to draw attention to both the poetry of the master poet, who entered the 50th year of his death in 2020, and the epidemic of the Corona virus that threatened all humanity. In this study, an eclectic method including “close reading”, historical positivist, biographical critism and hermeneutic methods has been used.

DAS PATRIARCHAT ALS ORT MÄNNLICHER MACHT IN DEN ERZÄHLUNGEN VON MARIE VON EBNER-ESCHENBACH

DAS PATRIARCHAT ALS ORT MÄNNLICHER MACHT IN DEN ERZÄHLUNGEN VON MARIE VON EBNER-ESCHENBACH

Author(s): Eldi Grubišić Pulišelić / Language(s): German / Issue: 18/1/2017

In a patriarchal society, a woman is an object subordinated to the power of men, without any rights and without significance as an individual. Marie von Ebner-Eschenbach shows various forms of patriarchy as a space of male power in her three short stories “Die Totenwacht”, “Mašlans Frau” and “Das tägliche Leben”. The female figures come from different social backgrounds: Anna from “Die Totenwacht” comes from a poor family and is subjected not only to male dominance, but above all to its tyranny and becomes a victim of rape. For the man, the status of the woman is reduced to possession and he believes that his crime can be corrected by marriage. The heroine is morally superior to him and she refuses his marriage proposal. Evi, a rich peasant daughter from “Mašlans Frau” rebels against double mourning and is determined not to forgive the violation of female dignity.

Das Verhältnis zwischen der kulturellen Identität & Religion des Mittelmeerraumes im Reisebericht Reise ins Heilige Land von Anton Prokesch von Osten

Das Verhältnis zwischen der kulturellen Identität & Religion des Mittelmeerraumes im Reisebericht Reise ins Heilige Land von Anton Prokesch von Osten

Author(s): Martina Lučić / Language(s): German / Issue: 22/2019

At the end of the March 1829, Anton Prokesch von Osten went on another journey to the Orient; this time to the Holy Land. This country is not only considered as one of the most popular Christian pilgrimage sites, but also as a meeting point between the East and the West in the cultural and the religious sense.Therefore, we will try to explain in this article what is meant by the terms identity, culture and religion, what is the relationship between the cultural identity and the religion of the Mediterranean, whether they influence each other and if so, in which way, which ethnic, cultural and religious identity groups of the Mediterranean can be identified in the Prokesch´s travelogue and also in which way the concept of Camus' "noonday thought" can be applied to this travelogue. The main focus of this article is put on the analysis of the relationship between the different cultural and religious identity groups of the Mediterranean from the point of view of this Austrian diplomat and writer.
