Neoliberal Governmentality in the Red-Green Era
Neoliberal Governmentality in the Red-Green Era: Tracing Facets of the Entrepreneurial Self in Three Contemporary German Novels by Myriam Léger A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfilment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in German Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2012 © Myriam Léger 2012 Author’s Declaration I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii Abstract This dissertation examines three contemporary German novels and their respective representations of the Red-Green era. It focuses on the discourses to which these novels refer in order to shed light on the consequences and implications of Red-Green politics for the subjectification of individuals during this time. When Gerhard Schröder replaced Helmut Kohl in 1998 as Chancellor of Germany, there was a noticeable shift towards neoliberal policies that has since received much attention in scholarly studies and public-political debates about its impact on Germany’s economy, social security system, political party system, and institutional structure. Taking a new approach to understanding the politics of the Red-Green coalition, I argue that its impact is noticeable not only in the political sphere, but that this impact also permeates all levels of society, in particular concepts of selfhood, and that it has found its way into contemporary literary works. As my particular interest lies in investigating how these literary works process the consequences and implications of Red-Green politics for the subjectification of individuals during this time, the novels I selected situate themselves explicitly within the Red-Green era mostly through references to some of its most well-known labour market measures, namely the Ich-AG, the Mittelstandsoffensive, and employability training programs. -

Shattering Fragility: Illness, Suicide, and Refusal in Fin-De-Siècle Viennese Literature Abstract How fragile is the femme fragile and what does it mean to shatter her fragility? Can there be resistance or even strength in fragility, which would make it, in turn, capable of shattering? I propose that the fragility embodied by young women in fin-de-siècle Vienna harbored an intentionality that signaled refusal. A confluence of factors, including psychoanalysis and hysteria, created spaces for the fragile to find a voice. These bourgeois women occupied a liminal zone between increased access to opportunities, both educational and political, and traditional gender expectations in the home. Although in the late nineteenth century the femme fragile arose as a literary and artistic type who embodied a wan, ethereal beauty marked by delicacy and a passivity that made her more object than authoritative subject, there were signs that illness and suicide could be effectively employed to reject societal mores. -
Modern Prussian History, 1830-1947'
H-German Steinhoff on Dwyer, 'Modern Prussian History, 1830-1947' Review published on Saturday, March 1, 2003 Philip G. Dwyer, ed. Modern Prussian History, 1830-1947. New York: Longman, 2001. xviii + 315 pp. $59.95 (cloth), ISBN 978-0-582-29271-0. Reviewed by Anthony J. Steinhoff (Department of History, University of Tennessee-Chattanooga) Published on H-German (March, 2003) As German Europe's largest state after 1815 and the driving force behind German unification, Prussia's influence on the course of German history has been considerable. Indeed, Prussia's special position within the Second German Empire (Kaiserreich) established a certain identity between Prussia and Germany, an image that has lingered and powerfully shaped both scholarly and popular understandings of Germany. Yet, as the essays in Modern Prussian History, 1830-1947 argue, this image has not done justice to our appreciation either of the Prussian or the German past. Modern Prussian History is the second volume in a two-part reappraisal of Prussian history edited by Philip Dwyer. Its twelve essays take a topical rather than a comprehensive approach to the period's major phases: monarchy, empire, republic, NS-state. In choosing the themes, Dwyer has Selected topics that not only promote a reappraisal of the relationship between Prussia and Germany but also highlight current research trends. The book begins with two introductory essays. First, Dwyer establishes the framework for the volume, presents its major themes, and summarizes the essays' findings. Then, Stefan Berger discusses the image of Prussia in German historiography. Much of this story is well known to students of German history. -
Eduard Thöny
Eduard Thöny *9. Februar 1866 in Brixen/Südtirol +26. Juli 1950 in Holzhausen am Ammersee Gästebücher Schloss Neubeuern Band IV mit Rudolf Wilke Aufenthalt Schloss Neubeuern: 15. – 19. Oktober 1902 Eduard Thöny war ein österreichischer Zeichner und Karikaturist. Thöny war langjähriger und sehr produktiver Mitarbeiter der Zeitschriften Simplicissimus und Jugend, für die er unter anderem viele Karikaturen aus dem Militär- und Gesellschaftsleben erstellte. Bekannt war er auch für seine Karikaturen aus dem Studentenleben („Jaja, vor dem Krieg war das ein Katerfrühstück – jetzt ist’s ein Mittagessen!“ 1920) und als impressionistischer Maler von Jagd- und Reitsportbildern. Mit Ludwig Thoma und Rudolf Wilke verband ihn eine enge Freundschaft. Quelle: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eduard_Th%C3%B6ny LYONEL FEININGER & EDUARD THÖNY Berlin - München. Der Kampf um demokratische Werte 13. 11. 2005 bis 19. 03. 2006 Mit dieser Ausstellung schildert das Karikaturmuseum Krems die für die Entwicklung der europäischen Karikatur wichtigste Zeit um die Jahrhundertwende. Der gebürtige Amerikaner Feininger und der Südtiroler Thöny führten von den beiden Schauplätzen - Berlin und München - mit dem Zeichenstift ihren Kampf für die Demokratie im wilhelminischen Deutschland. Anhand von ca. 100 äußerst seltenen Skizzen, Illustrationen und Originalzeitschriften aus Privatbesitz wird die bornierte, sozial gnadenlose Haltung des preußischen Junkertums und der modischen, wohlhabenden Gesellschaft demaskiert und deren Hineintaumeln in den I. Weltkrieg geschildert. Feiningers und Thöny gewaltige satirische Kraft kritisierte die Kaiserlichen, die Militärs und die höheren Klassen, die Großindustrie, die preußischen Großgrundbesitzer, die Junker, die Studentenverbindungen und machte auch nicht vor Polizei, Justiz, Innen- und Außenpolitik sowie der geistigen Macht halt. Aber auch der Mittelstand, dessen Spießer und das Kleinbürgertum wurden aufs Korn genommen. -

The number of Reichstag seats held by these parties fell from 22I to I40, out of the total of397; they never again achieved more than I69. To the multitude of problems left by Bismarck to his successorswas there- fore added one of parliamentaryarithmetic: how was the chancellor to organize a Reichstag majority when the traditional governmental parties by themselves were no longer large enough, and the intransigently anti-governmental SPD was constantly increasing its representation? It was in this situation that the role of the Centre party in Wilhelmine politics became decisive, for between I890 and I9I4 the party possessed a quarter of the seats in the Reichstag, and thus held the balance of power between Left and Right. -

THOMAS MANN's INTERPRETATIONS of DER TOD in VENEDIG and TMEIR RELIABILITY by Herbert Lehnert
THOMAS MANN'S INTERPRETATIONS OF DER TOD IN VENEDIG AND TMEIR RELIABILITY by Herbert Lehnert One of the last comments by Thomas Mann on his Der Tod in Venedig is found in a letter to Franz H. Mautner, the author of a valuable study on the Greek elements in Mann's st0ry.l In this letter Mann claimed his memory to be the source of an Odyssey quotation in the text. Homer's verses, he writes, had been well preserved in his memory from his days as a boy. There is ample evidence, however, that the source for the Homer quotation in the text was Erwin Rohde's Psyche, a book from which Mann also took other material for Der Tod in Venedig.2 Why did he not name Rohde's book as a source of Der Tod in Venedig? Psyche is a most respectable book, written in a beautiful style rarely found among German scholars, and it is still recognized as the standard work on the topic, namely the Greek beliefs concerning the existence of the soul after death. Could he have forgotten the rather elaborate process, that we can reconstruct, of not only reading the book, but also pencil-marking some passages, excerpting some of these, and then using them in the story? This is quite possible after forty years, although he still owned the book when living in his last home in Switzerland, and placed it in his library among works on mythology which he used for Joseph. He had mentioned his early knowledge of classical legends much earlier in "Kinderspiele" (1904). -

Their very particular kind of intensely colorful, expressive paint- ing, using a dense formal idiom that was moving toward abstraction, was based on a unique spiritual approach that opened up completely new possibilities for expression, ranging in style from a height- ened realism to abstraction. -
