Julius Fučík – Egon Erwin Kisch – Franz Carl Weiskopf – Jiří Weil

Julius Fučík – Egon Erwin Kisch – Franz Carl Weiskopf – Jiří Weil

Edice textů (1927–1937)

Author(s): / Language(s): Czech Issue: 3-4/2020

The edition brings a commented selection of texts from reportage publications and travelogues of four Czechoslovak writers, which reflect their experiences gathered during their trips to and stays in “exotic” non-European regions of the Soviet Union between the two world wars. They are: Julius Fučík (1903–1943), a journalist, literary critic and columnist, Egon Erwin Kisch (1885–1948), a Czech-German journalist, reporter and writer from Prague, the Czech-German writer and diplomat Franz Carl Weiskopf (1900–1955), also born in Prague, and the Czech-Jewish writer, newsman and translator Jiří Weil (1900–1959). All of them were organized Communists (Weil was expelled from the Communist Party in 1935), travelling at an invitation of Soviet authorities, and their texts, which were published in Czechoslovakia and Germany between 1927 and 1937, presented a more or less idealized picture of the Soviet reality with a propagandistic air. The selected texts capture the authors’ impressions mainly from Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan, but also from other regions of Soviet Central Asia, the Caucasus, and the Altai Mountains. Julius Fučík and Jiří Weil were specifically interested in the Czechoslovak cooperative of emigrant workers and farmers, Interhelpo, established in 1925 and operating until the late 1930s off the town of Frunze (now Bishkek).

Editors’ Note

Author(s): / Language(s): English Issue: 2/2021

Welcome to our spring 2021 issue of The Agonist: “The Antichrist.” We would like to thank all of our contributing writers and dedicated editorial team. We would also like to express our enormous gratitude to our new publishers, Ibrahim Sirkeci and the Transnational Press London. We look forward to working with you! In this issue our writers present four essays that once again rethink our relationship with Nietzsche’s controversial, later writings. Robert Malka explores the ways in which a story can find its basis in both the self and the world in Nietzsche's works. Gary Shapiro reimagines Nietzsche as a proto-ecologist or prophet of environmentalism. Bradley Kaye mines the strange affinities between Nietzsche and Pelagianism. And finally, Thomas Steinbuch treats us to “Cursing the Curse: Nietzsche on the Machiavellianism of Pity” in the early sections of The Antichrist.

Пътуване и превод: Маргьорит Юрсенар като преводачка на Вирджиния Улф

Пътуване и превод: Маргьорит Юрсенар като преводачка на Вирджиния Улф

Author(s): Francheska Zemyarska / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 1/2022

The core topic of this paper is Marguerite Yourcenar’s translation (1937) of Virginia Woolf's novel The Waves. I also trace back the major debate in France in 1993 when a second translation of The Waves by Cécile Wajsbrot appeared in French. In conclusion, the paper provides Marguerite Yourcenar's reflection on Virginia Woolf. By outlining the genealogy of Marguerite Yourcenar's writing, it goes beyond the obvious predecessors like Marcel Proust and Thomas Mann, in order to unmask Woolf as a possible precursor.

Stratégies d’adaptation de La vie devant soi : fonctions éthiques et transformations filmiques

Stratégies d’adaptation de La vie devant soi : fonctions éthiques et transformations filmiques

Author(s): Antoaneta Robova / Language(s): French Issue: 1/2022

The paper analyses two film adaptations (1977, 2020) of Romain Gary’s novel The Life Before Us exploring the transformation strategies originating from the transition from page to screen as well as different forms of (re)contextualisation in the 20th and 21st century. The comparative case study examines the evolution of dominant adaptation approaches going from fidelity to the source text to intertextuality and reinvention. We aim to reveal the relevance of the author’s humanist views through the strong visual thematisation of universal values and empathic figures’ interactions.

Breakfast at Tiffany’s. From Page to Screen. The Making of a Classic. Transformation of Gender Relations

Breakfast at Tiffany’s. From Page to Screen. The Making of a Classic. Transformation of Gender Relations

Author(s): Ioana Pankova / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2022

The aim of this article is to explore how the film adaptation of Truman Capote’s novella Breakfast at Tiffany’s translated the literary original into cinematic language. My claim is that the essential transfigurations ensued in terms of gender relations. The question of what motivated them, and how they impacted the cult status which the movie work acquired, is approached by focusing on the transformations from the perspective of the dramatic structure. Through the use of script development tools: type of narration, thematic premise, central question, controlling idea, mediation, protagonists, setting, and the ways in which casting, style of cinematography and music interact with them, I will attempt to pinpoint and analyse the key differences.

Места на празнота в романа Спящият човек на Жорж Перек и неговата екранизация

Места на празнота в романа Спящият човек на Жорж Перек и неговата екранизация

Author(s): Rennie Yotova / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 1/2022

This text examines George Perec's novel The Man Who Sleeps and its adaptation through a young man's existential crisis in search of the meaning of his existence. The disintegrated time and space introduce the reader to the labyrinth of wandering consciousness through the “rhetorical places”, the delight of emptiness, on the border between dream and reality. The work is close to the experiment of the literary movement “New Novel”, approaching in the film the “camera-pen” embodied in the New Wave of French cinema.

Ема – това съм аз (Вазов и Флобер)

Author(s): Julian Zhiliev / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 1/2022

The article aims to answer a few questions related to the autobiographical and literary basis of Vazov’s short story Emma, its hidden correlation and opposition to Flaubert’s Emma from the novel Madame Bovary, as well as to trace some “bovarystic” plots in the prose of the antibovaryst Vazov.

Le jeu de la feuillée d’Adam de la Halle: une sournoise noise contre la pathologie virale de l’idéologie courtoise féodale

Le jeu de la feuillée d’Adam de la Halle: une sournoise noise contre la pathologie virale de l’idéologie courtoise féodale

Author(s): Diokel SARR / Language(s): French Issue: 39/2022

The present study provides a better understanding of the affinities between literature and history. This is to say more explicitly that the defects assimilated to viral pathologies which have infected the populations of Arras, the authorities (political, religious, paternal) in particular, are similar to that which the world has known for a few months, to namely the Coronavirus pandemic, also called the COVID-19. The new social order, which the latter requires, justifies the focus on the aristocratic elite who happens to be in perfect connivance with the clergy. The structural or hierarchical rearrangement of social relations accounts for a certain weakening or annihilation of the unconditional supremacy of which this elite claims the prerogative through courtly ideology. The downfall of the said elite infected with viral defects allows Adam de la Halle to initiate, through his main character Adam, a healing odyssey, under the prism of generic subversion.This translates, moreover, in a dramatic form tested positive which rubs shoulders and harmoniously forms one with many other literary genres of the medieval period, considered in turn as contact cases.

A Brief History of the Nekrasovite Cossacks and an Analysis of the Cossack Heritage in Romania

A Brief History of the Nekrasovite Cossacks and an Analysis of the Cossack Heritage in Romania

Author(s): Cristian ȘCHIOPU / Language(s): English Issue: 39/2022

The purpose of this paper is to make a contribution to the clarification of certain aspects regarding the origins of the Lipovans, the Russian-speaking minority group found on the territory of Romania, which have been long rumoured to be of Cossack origin. Despite having emigrated and cut off contact with their native lands, they have managed to maintain a distinct identity, culture and language over the centuries of separation from their ancestral lands, whilst also managing to integrate well into the new cultural context initially encountered in Ottoman-ruled Dobruja, and in Romania, later. The paper comprises a presentation of the historical contexts that have led to the migration of Russian speakers westwards, reaching the territory of modern-day Romania and the influence they have exerted on said territories. It includes specific cultural and linguistic exemplifications supporting the Cossack origin thesis of the Lipovan population of Dobruja.

The Heroine with 1001 Faces by Maria Tatar, Liveright Publishing Corporation, USA, 2021, 368 p.

The Heroine with 1001 Faces by Maria Tatar, Liveright Publishing Corporation, USA, 2021, 368 p.

Author(s): Raluca-Marina NICOLAE / Language(s): English Issue: 39/2022

This book explores the notion of heroism from the feminist point of view by tackling notions such as curiosity and knowledge, deeds (masculine approach) vs stories (feminine approach), creativity (at the beginning limited to the domestic area) and inquisitiveness. It also reveals uncomfortable truths about how abuse, abduction, mutilation and torture forced women into silence. Moreover, the author points out that words have the power to resist injustice and that feminine heroism means the courage to break the silence and start telling ‘your’ story through different channels (weavings, books, social media etc).

Покръстването на българите в една барокова музикална драма от Виена

Author(s): Slavia Barlieva / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 65-66/2022

From the Middle Ages to the Modern Age and its Age of Enlightenment, the conversion to Christianity is the most common motif in Western historical sources about Bulgarian history. Baroque literature does not deviate from this tradition and frequently uses this motif – in hagiographic, homiletic, and very often in dramatic works performed in educational institutions of the Jesuit Order. This article presents a musical drama titled The Fruitful, Free and Wonderful Baptism by God’s Providence of Bogor, King of the Moesians that was performed on an uncertain date in 1716 at the Royal Academic Jesuit College in Vienna. Twenty-three dramatic works of the eighteenth century, dedicated to the Bulgarian Christianization, were known until now. They have been investigated and published by Nadezhda. Andreeva in 2004. The play introduced here is another one, the earliest drama on the subject. It is a musical work composed by Johann Georg Reinhart, a well-known court musician in Vienna. The author of the text is unknown. The play has come down to us in the form of a booklet, called in the Baroque theatrical tradition periocha, containing a bilingual Latin-German summary of the drama. The booklet contains nineteen pages: an Argumentum in Latin with parallel content (Geschichts-Inhalt) in German, as well as a bilingual prologue, three acts, and an epilogue. Between the acts are two chorus parts, also bilingual. The narrative is indicated as being based on the Chronicles of Sigebert of Gembloux and Skylitzes–Kedrenos. The periocha presented here does not list all dramatis personae, noting only some of them. Still, the number of participants in the performance speaks of a monumental spectacle: 187 participants are listed by name in the cast list, along with their nationality, status, and profession or faculty. Through participation in the musical drama about the Bulgarian conversion to Christianity, the educated Baroque public acquired knowledge, albeit with quite a few historical errors, that represented the Bulgarians as bearers of the values of Christian Europe. The article concludes with an Appendix containing a Bulgarian translation of the Latin text of the periocha.

„Ustawiania” odbioru dzieła na przykładzie wybranych prezentacji niemieckiego wydania powieści Artura Daniela Liskowackiego

„Ustawiania” odbioru dzieła na przykładzie wybranych prezentacji niemieckiego wydania powieści Artura Daniela Liskowackiego

Author(s): Katarzyna Taborska / Language(s): Polish Issue: 1/2022

The article aims to discuss the selected presentations of the German translation of Artur Daniel Liskowacki’s novel. The author analyzes the publisher’s strategies of presenting the novel in Germany and interprets the vision of the novel shown on a website dedicated to books published in German-speaking countries. The article suggests introducing terms that would specify the roles of literary figures that influence the readers’ opinions of given books. Moreover, certain selected actions of the “setters” of the German translation of Eine kleine are discussed and some differences are demonstrated between Polish and German adjusting of the “setting” of the novel in the media space.

Cognitive Dissonance in Online Shopping in an Emerging 
E-tailing Market

Cognitive Dissonance in Online Shopping in an Emerging E-tailing Market

Author(s): Haritha S.,Bijuna C Mohan / Language(s): English Issue: 3/2022

The paper investigates cognitive dissonance in the context of online shopping of electronic products. The study attempts to analyze the influence of product involvement and perceived risks on cognitive dissonance. To the best of the authors' knowledge, this is one of the first studies to assess the impact of perceived risks on cognitive dissonance in the online purchase of electronic products in an emerging and thriving market like India. This study contributes significantly in understanding online buying behavior in electronics product category which is currently growing exponentially due to the pandemic. The study further analyzes the impact of cognitive dissonance on satisfaction. It also attempts to address the impact of satisfaction on repurchase intention and Electronic Word of Mouth (EWOM). The study analyzed the reaction of 716 respondents to a structured self-administered questionnaire. Data were analyzed using Partial Least Squares-Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM).The study reveals that cognitive dissonance significantly impacts satisfaction and satisfaction largely impacts repurchase intention and EWOM. The study further shows that product involvement influences cognitive dissonance. On the other hand, perceived risks did not have a significant relationship with cognitive dissonance.

Narratives of Hegemony and Marginalization: Deconstructing the History Legends of India

Author(s): Sabina Zacharias / Language(s): English Issue: 12/2022

Myths and legends as local sources of history reveal their implicit assumptions and demonstrate the way in which events are filtered through the interpretations of their authors. By examining a variety of these interpretations, we might piece together a refracted image of the past which will ultimately present a history of “what actually happened”. There is also an attempt to create a single narrative supported by various sources that claim to reveal the truth in political and social terms about what may have happened there. I have substantiated my arguments by drawing examples from the compilation of legends, Aithihyamala (Garland of Legends), a pioneering and exhaustive collection of 126 legends of Kerala (India), compiled and published between 1909 and 1934 by the Sanskrit-Malayalam scholar Kottarathil Sankunni. My contention in this paper is that there is a politics behind the subversion of “other histories” (local or subaltern) to establish a hegemonic history. One finds a "politics" behind the legend-making, a deliberate attempt at compiling an elitist record of legends and through it the homogenizing of the cultural past of a region.

Rukopisi rječnika i leksikografska tradicija u Bosni od 16. do 19. stoljeća

Rukopisi rječnika i leksikografska tradicija u Bosni od 16. do 19. stoljeća

Author(s): Dželila Babović / Language(s): Bosnian,English Issue: 27/2022

Dictionaries in Arabic, Turkish, Persian, and Bosnian that were created and used in Bosnia from the 16th to the 19th century are an indispensable segment of the Bosnian lexicographic tradition. Based on the researchers and analysis of the form, language, methodology, questions of authorship, and reception of the dictionaries stored in the institutional manuscript collections of Bosnia and Herzegovina, it is possible to talk about the dominant lexicographic trends and practices during the Ottoman rule in these areas and to determine the contribution of these manuscripts works and their authors to the development and continuity of the lexicographical tradition. The research base for this work was manuscript collections stored in public cultural and scientific institutions of Bosnia and Herzegovina: Gazi Husrev-bey Library, National and University Library of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bosniak Institute – Adil Zulfikarpašić Foundation, Oriental Institute of the University of Sarajevo, Sarajevo Historical Archives, The Cantonal Archives Travnik, The Cantonal Archives Tuzla, The General Library of Tešanj, Herzegovina Museum Mostar and Herzegovina Archives Mostar.

Author(s): / Language(s): Turkish Issue: 2/2022

Unfortunately, instead of celebrating the end of the pandemic, 2022 have brought probably the largest refugee crisis we have faced since the 2nd World War. Since Russia's invasion of Ukraine began in February, some 7 million Ukrainians have taken to the roads and sought refuge in neighbouring countries. At the same time, we have seen a large segment of the population displaced within the country during the invasion, which affected especially the northern and eastern regions of the country.

Göç Dergisi Mülteciler Günü Özel Sayısı

Author(s): / Language(s): Turkish Issue: 3/2022

Türkiye, coğrafi konumu sebebiyle, tarih boyunca göç hareketleriyle karşı karşıya kalmış bir ülkedir. Son yıllarda artan göç ve özellikle de 2011 sonrası, Suriye’den gelen göçle beraber, gerek göçmen sayısı gerekse göç üzerine yürütülen çalışmaların sayısı hızla artmıştır. Birleşmiş Milletler Genel Kurulu’nun göç ve sığınma hareketleri konusunda farkındalığın artmasını amaçlayarak 2001 tarihinden itibaren 20 Haziran’ı Dünya Mülteciler Günü olarak benimsemiştir. Türkiye de, bu karar çerçevesinde, mültecilerin hakları konusunda farkındalık oluşturmak amacıyla 20 Haziran’da Dünya Mülteciler Günü’nü çeşitli etkinliklerle kutlamaktadır.

Moverse en ciudades que arrinconan: las personas con discapacidad frente al urbanismo capacitista de la Ciudad de México

Moverse en ciudades que arrinconan: las personas con discapacidad frente al urbanismo capacitista de la Ciudad de México

Author(s): Laura Paniagua Arguedas / Language(s): Spanish Issue: 2/2022

Este artículo presenta las experiencias de las personas con discapacidad al moverse en la Ciudad de México frente al urbanismo capacitista, un sistema de dominación en el que las formas, usos y gestión de la ciudad dan privilegios y atención a las necesidades de las personas consideradas “capaces”, con “cuerpos completos”, “inteligentes” o “sanas”. Se presenta un estudio de casos con información que se recolectó por medio de entrevistas móviles y observación participante de las movilidades. El análisis se realizó utilizando la Teoría Crip y referentes de los estudios críticos en discapacidad. Entre los hallazgos se encuentra que el urbanismo capacitista afecta a diversidad de cuerpos, incluidos los de las personas con discapacidad, pero, además, a muchas otras poblaciones. Esto evidencia que las ciudades benefician la habitabilidad de ciertos grupos en función de su clase y género.

El capital inmobiliario, actor preponderante de la producción del espacio en las ciudades contemporáneas. Elementos teóricos para un análisis marxista: la renta urbana y el ambiente construido

El capital inmobiliario, actor preponderante de la producción del espacio en las ciudades contemporáneas. Elementos teóricos para un análisis marxista: la renta urbana y el ambiente construido

Author(s): Manuel Ortega Herrera / Language(s): Spanish Issue: 2/2022

Los incontables problemas urbanos de la actualidad encuentran una explicación en la racionalidad del funcionamiento capitalista, en específico en la personificación del capital inmobiliario, pues su reproducción en los últimos años ha sido sumamente significativa. Esto nos obliga a situar en el centro del análisis urbano, algunas categorías económicas específicas ligadas a la Economía Política marxista; nos refererimos puntualmente a los conceptos de Renta Urbana (y su determinante princicipal, el Precio del suelo) y al ambiente construido, el cual incide directamente en aquélla para cerrar un círculo virtuoso de valorización y obtención de sobre-ganancias a partir de altos precios de las mercancías bienes inmuebles que inundan gran parte de la oferta edilicia de la ciudades contemporáneas. Un entendimiento sistemático y teóricamente articulado a actividades del sector inmobiliario (la vivienda, las oficinas y el retail) y de su funcionamiento dentro del sistema capitalista, nos puede ayudar a comprender los actuales procesos urbanos.
