© 2010 Julia Silvia Feldhaus ALL RIGHTS RESERVED Between Commodification and Emancipation: Image Formation of the New Woman through the Illustrated Magazine of the Weimar Republic By Julia Silvia Feldhaus A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School – New Brunswick Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Program in German Written under the direction of Martha B. Helfer And Michael G. Levine And approved by ____________________________ _____________________________ _____________________________ _____________________________ New Brunswick, New Jersey October 2010 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Between Commodification and Emancipation: Image Formation of the New Woman through the Illustrated Magazine of the Weimar Republic By JULIA SILVIA FELDHAUS Dissertation Directors: Martha B. Helfer Michael G. Levine This dissertation investigates the conflict between the powerful emancipatory image of the New Woman as represented in the illustrated magazines of the Weimar Republic and the translation of this image into a lifestyle acted out by women during this era. I argue that while female journalists promote the image of the New Woman in illustrated magazines as a liberating opening onto self-determination and self- management, this very image is simultaneously and paradoxically oppressive. For women to shake off the inheritance of a patriarchal past, they must learn to adjust to a new identity, one that is still to a large extent influenced by and in the service of men. The ideal beauty image designed by female journalists as a framework for emancipation in actuality turned into an oppressive normalization in professional and social markets in which traditional rules no longer obtained. -
To Children I Give My Heart Vasily
TO CHILDREN I GIVE MY HEART VASILY SUKHOMLINSKY (Translated from the Russian by Holly Smith) From the Publishers Vasily Alexandrovich Sukhomlinsky (1918-1970) devoted thirty-five years of his short life to the upbringing and instruction of children. For twenty-nine years he was director of a school in the Ukrainian village of Pavlysh, far away from the big cities. For his work in education, he was awarded the titles of Hero of Socialist Labour and Merited Teacher of the Ukrainian SSR; and elected Corresponding Member of the Academy of Pedagogical Science of the USSR. What is the essence of Vasily Sukhomlinsky's work as an educator? Progressive educators have long tried to merge upbringing and instruction into one educational process. This dream was realized in the educational work of Sukhomlinsky. To see an individual in every school child - this was the essence of his educational method and a necessary requirement for anyone who hopes to raise and teach children. Vasily Sukhomlinsky showed in theory and practice that any healthy child can get a modern secondary education in an ordinary public school without any separation of children into group of bright and less bright. This was no new discovery. But he found the sensible mean that enable, the teacher to lead the child to knowledge in keeping with the national educational programme. The main thing for Sukhomlinsky was to awaken the child's desire to learn, to develop a taste for self-education and self-discipline. Sukhomlinsky studied each of his pupils, consulting with the other teachers and with the parents, comparing his own thoughts with the views of the great educators of the past and with folk wisdom. -
Complete Stories by Franz Kafka
The Complete Stories by Franz Kafka Back Cover: "An important book, valuable in itself and absolutely fascinating. The stories are dreamlike, allegorical, symbolic, parabolic, grotesque, ritualistic, nasty, lucent, extremely personal, ghoulishly detached, exquisitely comic. numinous and prophetic." -- New York Times "The Complete Stories is an encyclopedia of our insecurities and our brave attempts to oppose them." -- Anatole Broyard Franz Kafka wrote continuously and furiously throughout his short and intensely lived life, but only allowed a fraction of his work to be published during his lifetime. Shortly before his death at the age of forty, he instructed Max Brod, his friend and literary executor, to burn all his remaining works of fiction. Fortunately, Brod disobeyed. The Complete Stories brings together all of Kafka's stories, from the classic tales such as "The Metamorphosis," "In the Penal Colony" and "The Hunger Artist" to less-known, shorter pieces and fragments Brod released after Kafka's death; with the exception of his three novels, the whole of Kafka's narrative work is included in this volume. The remarkable depth and breadth of his brilliant and probing imagination become even more evident when these stories are seen as a whole. This edition also features a fascinating introduction by John Updike, a chronology of Kafka's life, and a selected bibliography of critical writings about Kafka.

Isak Dinesen iii 1 Saltwater One of the things I loved about the ocean was being able to hold my mother in my arms. Like I was grown and my mother was a baby or a bride. I would badger her to put her book down on her towel and take a dip. Together we would walk past the little waves toward the horizon, our bodies growing buoyant and more buoyant still. My sisters Molly and Sam dove and surfaced, seal-like, now beside us, now in front, shouting watch me mom watch me. When my mother could lift her feet and float but I could still touch, she would circle her arms around my neck and hook her knees over my outstretched arm. I’d wrap my other arm around her back and grip her side. Menemsha Pond was still. -
“Mute Misery”: Speaking the Unspeakable in L
Chapter Six “Mute Misery”: Speaking the unspeakable in L. M. Montgomery’s Anne Books Hilary Emmett “Anne, you have talked even on for ten minutes by the clock,” said Marilla. “Now, just for curiosity’s sake, see if you can hold your tongue for the same length of time.” ~ Anne of Green Gables (93) “I was often very hungry before I came to Green Gables—at the orphanage…and before. I’ve never cared to talk of those days.” ~ Anne of Ingleside (245) When the orphaned Anne has mistakenly, but fortuitously, been left at Bright River station, the very first thing we learn about her is that she has, in the words of the stationmaster, “a tongue of her own, that’s for certain” (11). From this moment, Anne’s interaction with every new person she meets is characterized by her ceaseless chatter and her comical employment of all sorts of “big words” to express her even bigger ideas (15). Yet while Lucy Maud Montgomery’s series of Anne novels continually draw attention to her heroine’s prodigious gifts of verbal and written expression, there are some notable scores on which Anne remains if not precisely silent, then, at the very least, tongue-tied. In this chapter, I explore that which is repressed by the irrepressible Anne. Although repressed, ideas and events deemed unspeakable by Anne and her intimates nevertheless insinuate their way into their discourse and are eventually given textual enunciation. Traumatic events in the Anne novels present particular obstacles to free expression. Much is left unsaid in Montgomery’s rendering of such circumstances as Anne’s miserable childhood before she came to Green Gables, and her responses to the deaths which frame the series: that of her beloved father-figure Matthew in the first novel, and that of her son Walter, in the series’ final installment, Rilla of Ingleside.
