Marching Into History
Marching into History: From the Early Novels of Joseph Roth to Radetzkymarsch and Die Kapuzinergruft Kati Tonkin B.A. (Hons), M.A. (Dist.) This thesis is presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of The University of Western Australia School of Humanities German and European Studies February 2005 Acknowledgements I wish to express my gratitude to the Österreichischer Austauschdienst for an Österreich-Stipendium and to the University of Western Australia for a Fay Gale Fellowship. These two awards enabled me to spend the period September 2001 to February 2002 in Vienna conducting the initial research for this thesis. Emeritus Professor Leslie Bodi gave me the benefit of his expertise in Austrian literature and culture in stimulating conversations over a period of several years. I am indebted to him also for providing me with many contacts in Vienna whose assistance in the early stages of my research was invaluable. In Vienna I was fortunate to meet with a number of scholars who have written on the work of Joseph Roth. I would like to thank Professor Moritz Csáky of the Österreichische Akademie der Wissenschaften; Professor Wendelin Schmidt- Dengler from the Universität Wien; and Dr. Heinz Lunzer, director of the Literaturhaus Wien for their interest in my project and their academic advice. Dr. Lutz Musner kindly enabled me to attend lectures at the Internationales Forschungszentrum Kulturwissenschaften of which he is the director. My supervisor, colleague and friend Associate Professor Peter Morgan has been a wonderful mentor and an inspiration since I first attended his classes as an undergraduate. I have greatly appreciated, enjoyed and benefited from our supervision meetings over the years, and I cannot thank him enough for his unfailing support and encouragement while I have been combining work and study. -
Awardee: Fuad Rifka Poet, Philosopher
Awardee: Fuad Rifka Poet, Philosopher, Translator The Lebanese poet, philosopher and translator Fuad Rifka has translated pivotal works of German poetry by Goethe, Hölderlin, Novalis, Rilke and Trakl into Arabic. His encounter with German culture and philosophy had tangible impacts on his own works of poetry. Fuad Rifka is being awarded the Goethe Medal for his impressive life’s work as a translator. Fuad Rifka’s passionate interest in German poets and thinkers began with a coincidental discovery at the Goethe-Institut Beirut more than forty years ago. It was there that Rifka found an English edition of Rainer Maria Rilke’s Duino Elegies. This volume of poetry made a lasting impression on him and awakened his desire to translate German poetry into Arabic, “to make it accessible to the entire Arabic world.” He was the first to translate Rilke’s poems directly from his mother tongue into Arabic without detours via English or French translations. Fuad Rifka was born in Syria in 1930. In the 1940s his family moved to Lebanon. He studied philosophy in Beirut and in 1965 completed his doctorate in Tübingen on the aesthetic of Martin Heidegger with a scholarship from the DAAD. When he returned to Lebanon he taught philosophy at the Lebanese American University Beirut from 1966 until 2005. German philosophers always had a fixed place in his syllabus. A number of teaching and research opportunities took Rifka to the United States, the United Kingdom, Italy and Germany. Fuad Rifka was a founding member of the Lebanese avant-garde poetry journal Shi’r (Poetry), which aimed to revolutionize traditional Arabic verse and move towards freer, experimental poetry. -
Andreas Gryphius - Poems
Classic Poetry Series Andreas Gryphius - poems - Publication Date: 2012 Publisher: Poemhunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive Andreas Gryphius(11 October 1616 – 16 July 1664) German lyric poet and dramatist, was born on the 11th of October 1616, at Grossglogau in Silesia, where his father was a clergyman. The family name was Greif, latinized, according to the prevailing fashion, as Gryphius. Left early an orphan and driven from his native town by the troubles of the Thirty Years’ War, he received his schooling in various places, but notably at Fraustadt, where he enjoyed an excellent classical education. In 1634 he became tutor to the sons of the eminent jurist Georg von. Schonborn (1579—1637), a man of wide culture and considerable wealth, who, after filling various administrative posts and writing many erudite volumes on law, had been rewarded by the emperor Ferdinand II. with the title and office of imperial count-palatine (Pfalzgraf). Schonborn, who recognized Gryphius’s genius, crowned him poela laureatus, gave him the diploma of master of philosophy, and bestowed on. him a patent of nobility, though Gryphius never used the title. A month later, on the 23rd of December 1637, Schonborn died; and next year Gryphius went to continue his studies at Leiden, where he remained six years, both hearing and delivering lectures. Here he fell under the influence of the great Dutch dramatists, Pieter Cornelissen Hooft (1581—1647) and Joost van den Vondel (1587—1679), who largely determined the character of his later dramatic works. After travelling in France, Italy and South Germany, Gryphius settled in 1647 at Fraustadt, where he began his dramatic work, and in 1650 was appointed syndic of Glogau, a post he held until his death on the 16th of July 1664. -

Kracauer At least since Plato's seventh letter (esp. 344c), European writers have observed that written words are at the mercy of the recipient. This situation creates anxiety for those who wish to have meanings neatly pinned down, and inspires them to adopt restrictive strategies of exegesis. Such anxiety is probably due in part to the current situation in literary scholarship. In the United States, although paradigms derived from the close reading ofthe New Critics tend to dominate, texts are interpreted according to a huge variety ofapproaches, often representing the fashions reigning when the practioner passed through professional training. Given the wide range of possible interpretative strategies, critics are faced with an audience bringing astonishingly varied standards to bear on their efforts. -

Introduction
© Copyright, Princeton University Press. No part of this book may be distributed, posted, or reproduced in any form by digital or mechanical means without prior written permission of the publisher. INTRODUCTION NO NOVELIST has better described the dissolution of the Haps burg empire than Joseph Roth. Of course it did not collapse with a shudder at the death of the emperor and the end of the Great War, but had been rotting away for years, and the rot created its own luster, which Roth captured with an uncanny accuracy. He caught the rustling silks and sword hilts, the gutted nostalgia, the unwritten and impenetrable rules, the aimless ness and hollow laughter, the Prater and masquerades, the military maneuvers and opera boxes. He described it all as a dying candle, flickering, golden, consumed by the very liquid it had created. I lived in the cheerful, carefree company of young aristo crats whose company, second only to that of artists, I loved best under the old Empire. With them I shared a skeptical frivolity, a melancholy curiosity, a wicked insouciance, and the pride of the doomed, all signs of the disintegration which at that time we still did not see coming. Above the ebullient glasses from which we drank, invisible Death was already crossing his bony hands. We swore without malice and blasphemed without thought. Alone and old, distant and at the same time turning into stone, but still close to us all and omnipresent in the great and brilliant pattern of the Empire, lived and ruled the old Emperor, For general queries, contact [email protected] © Copyright, Princeton University Press. -

Critical Responsei. Paratext and Genre System: a Response to Franco Moretti
Critical Response I Paratext and Genre System: A Response to Franco Moretti Katie Trumpener In the 1970s, as a teenage browser in West Germany’s remarkably well- stocked bookstores, I noted with astonishment that many German title pages included generic designations. German plays old and new tended to announce their dramatic status in idiosyncratic subtitles that seemed to push at the limits of the genre, even question the possibility of theater itself: Friedrich Schiller, Don Carlos. Infant of Spain. A Dramatic Poem (1783–87); O¨ do¨n von Horva´th, Faith, Love, Hope: A Little Dance of Death in Five Acts (1932); Wolfgang Borchert, Outside the Door: A Play No Theater Wants to Perform and No Public Wants to See (1947); Peter Weiss, The Investigation. An Oratorio in Five Songs (1965). Works in hybrid, documentary genres often had equally idiosyncratic subtitles; East German poet Sarah Kirsch named her 1975 oral history The Panther Woman. Five Unkempt Tales from the Tape Recorder. More occasionally, a work of fiction used its subtitle to play tricks on its reader. Robert Walser published his 1908 novel, for instance, as Jakob von Gunten. A Diary (although the work that follows is not exactly a fictional diary either). Yet most books of prose fiction and of poetry, I found, bore accurate if rudimentary generic designations: Heinrich Bo¨ll’s The Bread of the Early Years. Narrative (1955); Gu¨nther Grass’s The Tin Drum. Novel (1959); Reiner Kunze’s with the volume turned down. poems (1972); Karin Struck’s Class Love. Novel (1973). At the same time, German publishers and German literary culture seemed to place great weight on generic subdis- Critical Inquiry 36 (Autumn 2009) © 2009 by The University of Chicago. -
