  • Yiddish in Joseph Rothâ•Žs Juden Auf Wanderschaft
    In 2000, W.W. Norton and Company released a new English -language edition of Joseph Roth’s 1927 compilation of essays entitled, Juden auf Wanderschaft . The edition’s dustcover proclaims in large, bold typeface: “A masterpiece of Jewish identity emerges in English 70 years after it was first written.” While it can’t be denied that Roth’s tale documenting the mass movement of eastern Jews ( Ostjuden )1 westward across the European continent in the early twentieth century has captured both public and scholarly i nterest in German -2 and English -speaking lands, the quotation still begs the question: Why are we reading Roth again now? Even the most tentative answer to this question should include the fact that Roth’s concerns in Juden auf Wanderschaft , including the forcible displacement of a people and their subsequent dispersal throughout the world, and Roth’s suggestion of an inherent tyranny in Western culture, find remarkable resonance in our contemporary reality. Global migrations and Westernization inform curre nt research, not just on identity politics, but also on topics that seek to move beyond or reinvigorate discussions of identity —topics such as mobility, diaspora, and migration.3 Written by one who was both an assimilated Viennese and a Galician Jew born i n the eastern -most reaches of the Hapsburg Empire, Roth’s work offers an extraordinarily complex and informative perspective on issues that remain topical today. Nevertheless, Roth’s Juden auf Wanderschaft is rarely analyzed in a manner reflecting this complexity. Most reviewers, in celebratory response to the work’s themes, see it as a poignant declaration of love for the vanishing eastern Jewish culture with which Roth came of age.

  • The Cultural Politics of Lao Literature, 1941-1975
    INVOKING THE PAST: THE CULTURAL POLITICS OF LAO LITERATURE, 1941-1975 A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts by Chairat Polmuk May 2014 © 2014 Chairat Polmuk ABSTRACT This thesis examines the role of Lao literature in the formation of Lao national identity from 1945 to 1975. In the early 1940s, Lao literary modernity emerged within the specific politico-cultural context of the geopolitical conflict between French Laos and Thailand. As a result, Lao literature and culture became increasingly politicized in colonial cultural policy to counter Thai expansionist nationalism that sought to incorporate Laos into Thai territorial and cultural space. I argue that Lao literature, which was institutionalized by Franco-Lao cultural campaigns between 1941 and 1945, became instrumental to the invention of Lao tradition and served as a way to construct a cultural boundary between Laos and Thailand. Precolonial Lao literature was revitalized as part of Lao national culture; its content and form were also instrumentalized to distinguish Lao identity from that of the Thai. Lao literature was distinguished by the uses of the Lao language, poetic forms, and classical conventions rooted in what was defined as Laos’s own literary culture. In addition, Lao prose fiction, which was made possible in Laos with the rise of print capitalism and an emergent literate social class, offered another mode of “invented tradition.” Despite its presumed novelty in terms of form and content, early Lao prose fiction was highly conventional in its representation of idealized traditional society in opposition to a problematic modern one.

  • Lithuanian Literature and Shakespeare: Several Cases of Reception
    366 INTERLITT ERA RIA 2019, 24/2: 366–379 KETURA KIENĖ Lithuanian Literature and Shakespeare: Several Cases of Reception EGLĖ KETURAKIENĖ Abstract. The article is based on the reception theory by Hans Robert Jauss and analyses how Shakespeare’s works were read, evaluated and interpreted in Lithuanian literature in the 19th to 21th centuries. Some traces of Shakespeare’s works might be observed in letters by Povilas Višinskis and Zemaitė where Shakespearean drama is indicated as a canon of writing to be followed. It is interesting to note that Lithuanian exodus drama by Kostas Ostrauskas is based on the correspondence between Višinskis and Zemaitė. The characters of the play introduce the principles of the drama of the absurd. Gell’s concept of distributed personhood offered by S. Greenblatt is very suitable for analysing modern Lithuanian literature that seeks a creative relationship with Shakespeare’s works. The concept maintains that characters of particular dramas can break loose from the defined interpretative framework. Lithuanian exodus drama reinterprets Shakespeare’s works and characters. The plays by Ostrauskas and Algirdas Landsbergis explore the variety of human existence and language, the absurd character of the artist, meaningless human existence and the critique of totalitarianism. Modern Lithuanian poetry interprets Shakespeare‘s works so that they serve as a way to contemplate the theme of modern writing, meaningless human existence, the tragic destiny of an individual and Lithuania, miserable human nature, the playful nature of literature, the clownish mask of the poet, the existential silence of childhood, the topic of life as a theatrical performance, the everyday experience of modern women in theatre.

The Swerve is Renaissance historian Stephen Greenblatt’s dramatic account of the origins of Lucretius’ work, its tenuous survival in a hostile world, the dramatic moment of its rediscovery—and its remarkable afterlife. Putting forward a radically human- oriented ethic, a theory of knowledge based squarely on perceptual experience, and an atomistic and mechanistic account of reality, in which individuals, species, institutions and worlds coalesce and disintegrate by turns, since its rediscovery On the Nature of Things has attracted the admiration of a disparate group of artists, historians, heretics, scientists and political theorists, among them Da Vinci, Botticelli, Giordano Bruno, Hume, Newton, Einstein, Jefferson—all convinced of having found an ancient source for their most important ideas.

  • Anecdotal Evidence and Questions of ''Historical Realism'
    Recuperating the Archive: Anecdotal Evidence and Questions of ‘‘Historical Realism’’ Sonja Laden Porter Institute for Poetics and Semiotics, Tel Aviv Abstract This essay argues that the critical practice of New Historicism is a mode of ‘‘literary’’ history whose ‘‘literariness’’ lies in bringing imaginative operations closer to the surface of nonliterary texts and briefly describes some of the practice’s lead- ing literary features and strategies. I further point out that the ostensible ‘‘arbitrary connectedness’’ (Cohen 1987) of New Historicist writing is in fact aesthetically coded and patterned, both stylistically and in terms of potential semantic correspondences between various representations of the past. I then move on to address the ques- tion of why anecdotal evidence features centrally and has come to play a key role in New Historicist writing. Here, I contend that, as components of narrative discourse, anecdotal materials are central in enabling New Historicists to make discernible on the surface of their discourse procedures of meaning production typically found in literary forms. In particular, anecdotal materials are the fragmented ‘‘stuff ’’ of his- torical narratization: they facilitate the shaping of historical events into stories and more or less formalized ‘‘facts.’’ This essay examines how the New Historicist anec- dote remodels historical reality ‘‘as it might have been,’’ reviving the way history is experienced and concretely reproduced by contemporary readers of literary history. Finally, the essay confirms how the textual reproduction of anecdotal evidence also enables the New Historicist mode of ‘‘literary’’ history to secure its links to literary artifacts, literary scholarship, and conventional historical discourse. I would like to thank the editors of Poetics Today for their challenging and thoughtful sugges- tions to earlier versions of this essay, especially Meir Sternberg, Brian McHale, and James Knapp.

  • T M Barnwell Phd Thesis. Missionaries and Changing Views of the Other
    Missionaries and Changing Views of the Other from the Ninth to the Eleventh Centuries Timothy Mark Barnwell Submitted in accordance with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Leeds School of History August 2014 The candidate confirms that the work submitted is his own and that appropriate credit has been given where reference has been made to the work of others. This copy has been supplied on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. The right of Timothy Mark Barnwell to be identified as Author of this work has been asserted by him in accordance with the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988. © 2015 The University of Leeds and Timothy Mark Barnwell ‘Difference and variety are what is right with the world.’ G. K. Chesterton. To the many people who have supported me before, during and after this thesis, thank you. I would not have been able to begin the project without the support of Julia Smith, Stuart Airlie, Rosamond McKitterick and Ian Wood. The whole process was made far more pleasant and intellectually stimulating by the company of Leeds’ early medievalists and the CMRP and T&I groups, as well as a very gracious examination by Julia Barrow and Stuart Airlie. Many errors still remain and, while I am uncertain whether I can be held wholly responsible for all of them, they certainly do not belong to any of these fine people. This thesis explores the varying ways in which otherness was imagined and constructed in two clusters of medieval missionary texts: Rimbert’s Vita Anskarii and Adam of Bremen’s Gesta Hammaburgensis ecclesiae pontificum, from the archdiocese of Hamburg-Bremen; and Bruno of Querfurt’s Passio Sancti Adalberti episcopi et martyris, Vita vel passio Benedicti et Iohannis sociorumque suorum and Epistola ad Heinricum Regem.

  • Summer Reading Assignment- Honors 12- 2018-1
    Honors English 12 Ms. Ferrone Honors English 12 Summer Reading Assignment One of the objectives of Honors English 12 is that you will learn to analyze literature from various cultures – including our own – in order to consider abstract ideas about values, beliefs, priorities, and cultural systems. You will compare and contrast these cultures based on these aspects. You will be expected to open your mind toward others’ views, to see things from unique perspectives, and to challenge your own perceptions. Your summer reading assignment reflects these goals. As students entering your final year of high school English, I expect you are already reading all the time. For that reason, and the fact that it is summer, I want to leave some of the choice of what you read this summer up to you. All I ask is that you read something contemporary and of literary value (either fiction or non-fiction). What does that mean, you ask? Novels and books of literary merit are often identified by scholars and writers who use myriad criteria by which to judge whether a book is notable in some way. These people consider aspects like the style and quality of writing, the nature of the topic and themes, and the originality of the work. One of the sources that feature notable contemporary books of literary merit is The New York Times. Each week The Times features a list of bestselling hardcover fiction and ​ non-fiction. This is one of the lists from which you could choose a summer reading book for ​ this year. You are not limited to choosing only from this week’s list.
