Om Ikonoklasmen Hos Birgitta Trotzig
Studia Litteraria Universitatis Iagellonicae Cracoviensis 10 (2015), z. 4, s. 275–297 doi:10.4467/20843933ST.15.025.4584 www.ejournals.eu/Studia-Litteraria zeszyt 4 KRZYSZTOF BAK Uniwersytet Jagielloński w Krakowie e-mail: [email protected] Om ikonoklasmen hos Birgitta Trotzig Abstract On Brigitta Trotzig’s Notion of Iconoclasm The Swedish writer Birgitta Trotzig (1928–2011) defi nes her own process of literary creation in interart terms as a translation of pictures into verbal signs. She often comments on the in- tersemiotic diffi culties involved in this transformation by referring to the Byzantine iconoclas- tic controversy. Using Trotzig’s notion of the iconoclastic controversy as a starting point, the present article investigates her understanding of the picture-word-transformation problems. The line of argument comprises fi ve stages. In the fi rst stage, the main issue of the article is presented and specifi ed. In the second stage, it is argued that previous critical approaches to Trotzig’s Byzantinism in most cases have been based on misleadingly anachronistic and mainly Occidental categories. In the third stage, the Byzantine iconoclastic controversy is related to the distinctive character of the theological thought of the Eastern Church. In the fourth stage, the Byzantine iconophile and iconoclast theories are applied to Trotzig’s literary works. A close reading of a representative prose poem of hers, “Teologiska variationer” (“Theological vari- ations”), demonstrates that her works unequivocally support the icon theology of the icono- dules. In the closing fi fth stage, Trotzig’s notion of the Byzantine iconoclastic controversy is reconstructed on the basis of her essays and interviews in which she explains her own as well as other authors’ intersemiotic diffi culties. -
Marc Brennan Thesis
Writing to Reach You: The Consumer Music Press and Music Journalism in the UK and Australia Marc Brennan, BA (Hons) Creative Industries Research and Applications Centre (CIRAC) Thesis Submitted for the Completion of Doctor of Philosophy (Creative Industries), 2005 Writing to Reach You Keywords Journalism, Performance, Readerships, Music, Consumers, Frameworks, Publishing, Dialogue, Genre, Branding Consumption, Production, Internet, Customisation, Personalisation, Fragmentation Writing to Reach You: The Consumer Music Press and Music Journalism in the UK and Australia The music press and music journalism are rarely subjected to substantial academic investigation. Analysis of journalism often focuses on the production of news across various platforms to understand the nature of politics and public debate in the contemporary era. But it is not possible, nor is it necessary, to analyse all emerging forms of journalism in the same way for they usually serve quite different purposes. Music journalism, for example, offers consumer guidance based on the creation and maintenance of a relationship between reader and writer. By focusing on the changing aspects of this relationship, an analysis of music journalism gives us an understanding of the changing nature of media production, media texts and media readerships. Music journalism is dialogue. It is a dialogue produced within particular critical frameworks that speak to different readers of the music press in different ways. These frameworks are continually evolving and reflect the broader social trajectory in which music journalism operates. Importantly, the evolving nature of music journalism reveals much about the changing consumption of popular music. Different types of consumers respond to different types of guidance that employ a variety of critical approaches. -

Valuing Subjectivity in Journalism: Bias, Emotions, and Self-Interest As Tools in Arts Reporting
Original Article Journalism Valuing subjectivity in journalism: Bias, emotions, and self-interest as tools in arts reporting Phillipa Chong McMaster University, Canada Abstract This article examines the meanings and norms surrounding subjectivity across traditional and new forms of cultural journalism. While the ideal of objectivity is key to American journalism and its development as a profession, recent scholarship and new media developments have challenged the dominance of objectivity as a professional norm. This article begins with the understanding that subjectivity is an intractable part of knowing (and reporting on) the world around us to build our understanding of different modes of subjectivity and how these animate journalistic practices. Taking arts reporting, specifically reviewing, as a case study, the analysis draws on interviews with 40 book reviewers who write for major American newspapers, including The New York Times, The Los Angeles Times, The Washington Post, and prominent blogs. Findings reveal how emotions, bias, and self-interest are salient – sometimes as vice and sometimes as virtue – across the workflow of critics writing for traditional print outlets and book blogs and that these differences can be conceptualized as different epistemic styles. Keywords Blogs, emotion, literary journalism, newspapers, online media, practice, subjectivity/ objectivity Introduction Objectivity has long been the gold standard in American journalism and was key to its development into a profession (Benson and Neveu, 2005; Schudson, 1976). Yet Corresponding author: Phillipa Chong, Department of Sociology, McMaster University, 609 Kenneth Taylor Hall, 1280 Main Street West, Hamilton, ON L8S 4M4, Canada. Email: [email protected] Chong 2 scholars have complicated the picture by pointing to the unattainability of objectivity as an ideal with some noting the increasing acceptance of subjectivity across different forms of journalism (Tumber and Prentoulis, 2003; Wahl-Jorgensen, 2012, 2013; Zelizer, 2009b). -

Howwas Ibsen's Modern Drama Possible?
Journal of World Literature 1 (2016) 449–465 brill.com/jwl How Was Ibsen’s Modern Drama Possible? Narve Fulsås University of Tromsø—The Arctic University of Norway [email protected] Tore Rem University of Oslo [email protected] Abstract One of the major renewals in the history of drama is Henrik Ibsen’s “modern tragedy” of the 1880s and 1890s. Since Ibsen’s own time, this renewal has been seen as an achievement accomplished in spite, rather than because, of Ibsen’s Norwegian and Scandinavian contexts of origin. His origins have consistently been associated with provinciality, backwardness and restrictions to be overcome, and his European “exile” has been seen as the great liberating turning point of his career. We will, on the contrary, argue that throughout his career Ibsen belonged to Scandinavian literature and that his trajectory was fundamentally conditioned and shaped by what happened in the intersection between literature, culture and politics in Scandinavia. In particular, we highlight the continued association and closeness between literature and theatre, the contested language issue in Norway, the superimposition of literary and political cleavages and dynamics as well as the transitory stage of copyright. Keywords Ibsen – tragedy – printed drama – The Modern Breakthrough – Georg Brandes – national literature – copyright On several occasions, Franco Moretti has highlighted the reverse relation between the geography of the novel and the geography of “modern tragedy.” Ibsen, whom he holds to be the key figure in this respect, is seen as belonging “to a Scandinavian culture which had been virtually untouched by the novel,” © koninklijke brill nv, leiden, 2016 | doi: 10.1163/24056480-00104003 Downloaded from Brill.com09/26/2021 08:35:18AM via free access 450 fulsås and rem and as causing the most heated controversies exactly in the “great powers” of novelistic production, France and England (Moretti “Moment” 39). -

Art to Commerce: the Trajectory of Popular Music Criticism
Art to Commerce: The Trajectory of Popular Music Criticism Thomas Conner and Steve Jones University of Illinois at Chicago [email protected] / [email protected] Abstract This article reports the results of a content and textual analysis of popular music criticism from the 1960s to the 2000s to discern the extent to which criticism has shifted focus from matters of music to matters of business. In part, we believe such a shift to be due likely to increased awareness among journalists and fans of the industrial nature of popular music production, distribution and consumption, and to the disruption of the music industry that began in the late 1990s with the widespread use of the Internet for file sharing. Searching and sorting the Rock’s Backpages database of over 22,000 pieces of music journalism for keywords associated with the business, economics and commercial aspects of popular music, we found several periods during which popular music criticism’s focus on business-related concerns seemed to have increased. The article discusses possible reasons for the increases as well as methods for analyzing a large corpus of popular music criticism texts. Keywords: music journalism, popular music criticism, rock criticism, Rock’s Backpages Though scant scholarship directly addresses this subject, music journalists and bloggers have identified a trend in recent years toward commerce-specific framing when writing about artists, recording and performance. Most music journalists, according to Willoughby (2011), “are writing quasi shareholder reports that chart the movements of artists’ commercial careers” instead of artistic criticism. While there may be many reasons for such a trend, such as the Internet’s rise to prominence not only as a medium for distribution of music but also as a medium for distribution of information about music, might it be possible to discern such a trend? Our goal with the research reported here was an attempt to empirically determine whether such a trend exists and, if so, the extent to which it does. -

Criticism As a Form of Cognition
Filozofski vestnik | Volume XL | Number 3 | 2019 | 161–179 Curtis L. Carter* Criticism as a Form of Cognition I. Erlebnis and Erkenntnis and Art Criticism Erlebnis, here refers to as knowledge by acquaintance, is knowledge attained in the presence of an object or event, for our purposes here a work of art. Erlebnis is not a vague or content less gesture toward the inefable. Rather, Erlebnis con- sists of an ordered, intelligible, symbolic process through which the producer artist sends out as information consisting of feeling, form, or ideas that com- prise the work of art, which is then received by an observer such as the art crit- ic. Erkenntnis is knowledge about something and consists of a description and interpretation of an object or event. It is based on internalizing perceptual ob- servation and reasoning processes such as analysis, association, comparison, appeal to prior knowledge, as well as judgment which may include assessment. In the case of art, however, a critic’s description, interpretation, or evaluation based solely on Erkenntnis seldom, if ever amounts to an exhaustive charac- terization of the work. It is necessary to supplement Erkenntnis with Erlebnis which is supplied by seeing, hearing, or undergoing, in the actual presence of the visual or performative artwork. Hence both Erkenntnis and Erlebnis have a major place in the creation of art criticism. My intent is not, therefore, to propose that Erkenntnis and Erlebnis constitute a dualism of knowledge with respect to art criticism. There are in fact elements 161 of both at work in the responses to a work of art whether a painting, a musical composition, theater performance or a dance.
