Download or read book As German as Kafka written by Lene Rock and published by Leuven University Press. This book was released on 2019-12-10 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the turn of the 21st century, countless literary endeavors by 'new Germans' have entered the spotlight of academic research. Yet 'minority writing', with its distinctive renegotiation of traditional concepts of cultural identity, is far from a recent phenomenon in German literature. A hundred years previously, the intense involvement of German-Jewish intellectuals in cultural and political discourses on Jewish identity put a clear stamp on German modernism. This book is the first to unfold literary parallels between these two riveting periods in German cultural history. Drawing on the philosophical oeuvre of Jean-Luc Nancy, a comparative reading of texts by, amongst others, Beer-Hofmann, Kermani, Özdamar, Roth, Schnitzler, and Zaimoglu examines a variety of literary approaches to the thorny issue of cultural identity, while developing an overarching perspective on the ‘politics of literature’.

Download or read book Migration und Innovation um 1900 written by Elisabeth Röhrlich and published by Böhlau Verlag Wien. This book was released on 2016-05-09 with total page 530 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In den Jahrzehnten um 1900 entwickelte sich Wien zu einer der größten Städte Europas. Die Zuwanderung aus allen Teilen der Habsburgermonarchie bedingte jene Diversität, welche die Großstadt Wien erst zur Metropole werden ließ. Viele Protagonisten des kulturellen Booms der Jahrhundertwende waren Zuwanderer der ersten und zweiten Generation. Der Band versammelt Beiträge von österreichischen und internationalen Forschern und Forscherinnen, die sich dem Zusammenhang von Migration und Innovation während der Wiener Jahrhundertwende widmen. Sie beleuchten die diversen Entwicklungen in Kunst, Kultur, Theater, Musik, Wissenschaft, Wirtschaft und Politik und geben detaillierte Einblicke in die unterschiedlichen Zuwanderungsgeschichten, welche das Fin de Siècle prägten. Dabei werden Fragen von Identitätskonstruktionen, Netzwerken und kulturellen Transfers neu in den Blick genommen.

Download or read book A Critical Introduction to Translation Studies written by Jean Boase-Beier and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2011-04-07 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jean Boase-Beier's Critical Introduction To Translation Studies demonstrates a keen understanding of theoretical and practical translation. It looks to instances where translation might not be straightforward, where stylistics play an important role. Examples are discussed from works of literature, advertisements, journalism and others, where effects on the reader are central to the text, and are reflected in the style. It begins by setting out some of the basic problems and issues that arise in the study of translation, such as: the difference between literary and non-literary translation; the role of language, content and style; the question of universals and specifics in language and the notion of context. The book then goes on to focus more closely on style and how it enables us to characterise literary texts and literary translation. The final part looks at the translation of poetry. Throughout, it is conscious of the relationship between theory and practice in translation. This book offers a new approach to translation, grounded in stylistics, and it will be an invaluable resource for undergraduates and postgraduates approaching translation studies.
