Pain and Affect in German Drama
Issue Six, Winter 2005 Anatomy and Poetics home current issue archives gallery contact Return to Contents Grotesque images and sardonic humour: pain and affect in German drama Denise Varney University of Melbourne In Art and Pain 1 2003 I discussed language that injures and causes pain. I looked in particular at ‘injurious speech’ and ‘linguistic vulnerability’ in German dramatist Heiner Müller’s play Germania 3 Ghosts at Dead Man. I suggested that in Germania 3 speeches uttered by dramatic personas mimicked the operations of hate-speech in the social sphere, with the addition that the effects of the speech are also shown. I suggested that Müller’s writing transforms a painful history into the discursive practices of the theatrical text and that the play’s impact and its importance reside in symbolic accounts of the pain and suffering of modern German history. This paper turns from language to images that evoke a painful history. In particular, it considers theatrical images whose effect is to call up or hail the real or metaphoric pain that circulates around historical events. These images belong to the symbolic or semiotic order but also, as I hope to show, the affective domain where feeling is provoked alongside cognition. Pursuing the theme once again through the work of Heiner Müller, the paper considers his direction of Bertolt Brecht’s The Resistible Rise of Arturo Ui, which opened at the Berliner Ensemble on 3 June 1995. The Berliner Ensemble, as many know, was the theatre founded by Bertolt Brecht and Helene Weigel in 1949 in East Berlin, and which became the flagship theatre company of the German Democratic Republic (GDR). -

In my analyses, I demonstrate how Müller exposes the various myths surrounding German identity by combining historical elements with the literary techniques of collage, intertextuality, metaphors, allegorical figures, political songs, ballads, and fairy tales. Germania Tod covers the time spectrum from the first to the mid-twentieth century as the author looks for clues to help explain the evolution of German identity which led to Hitler's reign of terror and Germany’s ultimate defeat by the Allied Forces in 1945, the division of Germany, and the formation of the GDR in 1949. -
