Cinema depicts its worlds, stories, and characters through images. Its form of expression is figurative, like that of dreams. Don’t dreams fascinate you, scare you, thrill you, disturb you, and nurture you with images? It seems to me that words and dialogue in movies serve to inform you, to permit you to rationally follow the event and give it a sense of verisimilitude according to the reali- ty we’re accustomed to; but it’s precisely this operation, references to so-called everyday reality echoing on the images, that takes away at least in part that unreal aspect of the dreamed image, that visual aspect of dreams. In fact, silent cinema has its own mysterious beauty, an evocative power of seduction that makes it more real than sound film because it’s closer to the images in dreams; they’re always more alive and real than anything we can see and touch. So why Satyricon? Why Petronius? You have to have an excuse to begin, and who knows why this time I chose Satyricon. I read Petronius’ book for the first time many years ago, back when I was in high school, an edition of the text with illustrations so inten- tionally chaste and ugly that it made them all the more erotic. The memory of that reading long ago has always been particularly vivid in my mind, and over time that in- terest slowly became a constant and obscure temptation. I just reread Satyricon after so many years, maybe less vo- raciously than before, but it was just as entertaining, and 1 this fresh reading made the temptation to base a film on it more intriguing. Satyricon is a mysterious text because it’s fragmen- tary. Although its fragmentary nature is emblematic in a certain sense. It’s emblematic of the way the ancient world appears to us today. This is the true appeal of the book and the world it depicts. It’s like an unfamiliar land- scape wrapped in dense fog that you catch glimpses of when it unveils itself now and then. Renaissance Human- ists used antiquity to justify and explain themselves, pro- jecting their preconceived notion of antiquity onto it. But I can’t project anything; I don’t have preconceptions. For me the ancient world is a lost world and my ignorance of it leaves me with no connection to it other than a fantas- tic, imaginative one, nurtured by hypotheses and impres- sions severed from facts and historical knowledge. School, or at least the school I attended, almost al- ways drowns out and freezes the content it aims to cover; it impoverishes it and reduces it to an interminable series of meaningless, abstract notions with no point of refer- ence in the end. The discovery and knowledge of the an- cient world you acquire in school, for example, is the ca- dastral or nomenclatural sort, it encourages a relationship to that world made up of mistrust, boredom, and disin- terest, at best a morbid, abject, or rather racist curiosity, in any case it doesn’t concern you and is disagreeable like math or chemistry, irrelevant like the training you under- go before national military service. The ruins? The Appian Way? Or better yet the pho- tos of ruins and the Appian Way you see in history books or on postcards? Watered-down ghosts, lifeless features, cemetery perspectives soaked in funereal sadness for 2 smug photographers’ exhibitions, especially the German ones who take pictures of these ruins against the light at sunset with a couple of little fluffy clouds in the fore- ground. The frescoes in Pompeii? Herculaneum? What I saw of the Capitoline Museums didn’t impress me much; it was obscured by the dullness it acquired from those gloomy readings and lectures in school. The splendid un- changed state of the exhibits that fill the museums is about as familiar as those scholastic notions or the casu- alness of personal suggestions. At a certain point I thought I recognized the sickly, frightened little face of a cousin of mine from the countryside in a marble bust with empty eyes. Her name was Jole and she had red hair. She was always sick in bed when I saw her and she had to drink constantly. For a moment I felt like there was an imper- ceptible contact, a fleeting understanding between us; that bust had Jole’s face, I caressed its braided stone hair, “Who knows if you can help me a little..

  • Mapping Topographies in the Anglo and German Narratives of Joseph Conrad, Anna Seghers, James Joyce, and Uwe Johnson
    MAPPING TOPOGRAPHIES IN THE ANGLO AND GERMAN NARRATIVES OF JOSEPH CONRAD, ANNA SEGHERS, JAMES JOYCE, AND UWE JOHNSON DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Kristy Rickards Boney, M.A. ***** The Ohio State University 2006 Dissertation Committee: Approved by: Professor Helen Fehervary, Advisor Professor John Davidson Professor Jessica Prinz Advisor Graduate Program in Professor Alexander Stephan Germanic Languages and Literatures Copyright by Kristy Rickards Boney 2006 ABSTRACT While the “space” of modernism is traditionally associated with the metropolis, this approach leaves unaddressed a significant body of work that stresses non-urban settings. Rather than simply assuming these spaces to be the opposite of the modern city, my project rejects the empty term space and instead examines topographies, literally meaning the writing of place. Less an examination of passive settings, the study of topography in modernism explores the action of creating spaces—either real or fictional which intersect with a variety of cultural, social, historical, and often political reverberations. The combination of charged elements coalesce and form a strong visual, corporeal, and sensory-filled topography that becomes integral to understanding not only the text and its importance beyond literary studies. My study pairs four modernists—two writing in German and two in English: Joseph Conrad and Anna Seghers and James Joyce and Uwe Johnson. All writers, having experienced displacement through exile, used topographies in their narratives to illustrate not only their understanding of history and humanity, but they also wrote narratives which concerned a larger global ii community.

  • Yiddish and the Negotiation of Literary Legacy in Germany After 1945
    FOLK FICTION: YIDDISH AND THE NEGOTIATION OF LITERARY LEGACY IN GERMANY AFTER 1945 Emma Woelk A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and Duke University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Carolina Duke Graduate Program in German Studies. Chapel Hill/Durham 2015 Approved by: Ruth von Bernuth William Donahue Kata Gellen Jonathan Hess Richard Langston © 2015 Emma Woelk ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Emma Woelk: Folk Fiction: Yiddish and the Negotiation of Literary Legacy in Germany after 1945 (Under the direction of Ruth von Bernuth) Following the Holocaust, when Eastern European Yiddish-language culture was all but destroyed and millions of Yiddish speakers were murdered, the language took on new significance in German culture. Whether it be as a symbol of proletarian solidarity in East German theater or as part of West German literary engagement with American Jewish culture, Yiddish shows up all over postwar German literature and performance. Building on scholarship from German Studies, Yiddish Studies, and cultural and political history, the following study connects the study of Yiddish in German literature after 1945 both to discourses from the early 20th century and to broader discussions on German identity and literary legacy in the postwar era. I am primarily interested in the reinvention of the folk tradition following the Nazi era and the creation of a usable literary past at a time in which the German political and geographic present was in flux. This dissertation explores these issues by looking at the ways in which German-language authors on both sides of the Berlin Wall, and those writing after its fall, relied on Yiddish to negotiate national literary identities.

While the most advanced technology has been used to photograph and reproduce this document, the quality of the reproduction is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help clarify markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark, it is an indication of either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, duplicate copy, or copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed. For blurred pages, a good image of the page can be found in the adjacent frame.

  • Works of James Joyce
    Guide to James Joyce holdings in the Rosenbach Museum & Library 14 May 2021 HISTORICAL NOTE Dr. A.S.W. Rosenbach was well known as a collector of English literature but is perhaps best known for owning Joyce’s original manuscript for Ulysses. Joyce had sold the manuscript shortly before the book was published in 1922, to John Quinn, an Irish American lawyer and collector who had defended the publishers of The Little Review when they were prosecuted for obscenity in 1920. Quinn sold the manuscript with many others from his collection in January 1924, and Dr. Rosenbach purchased it for $1,975, slightly below the reserve price of $2,000. Joyce attempted to buy back his manuscript, but Rosenbach refused to sell. Rosenbach did, however, offer to buy the corrected page proofs of Ulysses. Dr. Rosenbach and Joyce never met. Dr. Rosenbach also owned a handful of other Joyce works, including a first edition of Ulysses, given to him by the publisher and auctioneer Mitchell Kennerley in 1922, when it was still banned in the United States. All these objects are marked below with an asterisk (*). The Rosenbach has expanded these holdings considerably, and continues to collect works by and about Joyce. The guide is updated as new material is acquired. Objects acquired since 2014 are marked with a “+”. SCOPE & CONTENT This collections guide serves as an overview of the Joyce holdings, providing titles and call numbers. For complete catalog information and to view the materials in person, please make a research appointment and use the call number for reference.

A/8fJ s/o. niH EDUCATION THROUGH ALIENATION: ELEMENTS OF GESTALTIST LEARNING THEORY IN SELECTED PLAYS OF BERTOLT BRECHT DISSERTATION Presented to the Graduate Council of the North Texas State University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of DOCTOR OF EDUCATION By Ted Duncan Starnes Denton, Texas December, 1982 Cj Copyright by Ted Duncan Starnes 1982 Starnes, Ted Duncan, Education Through Alienation; Elements of Gestaltist Learning Theory in Selected Plays of Bertolt Brecht. Doctor of Education (College Teaching of Theatre), December, 1982, 191 pp., bibliography, 184 titles. This study explored the relationship between the dramatic and the educational theories developed by Bertolt Brecht and selected twentieth-century theories of pedagogy. A survey of Brecht's life and works revealed that although the stimulus-response theories of the associationist psy- chologists were inappropriate to Brecht's concepts, the three principal aspects of Gestaltism—perception, insight, and life space, as formulated by Max Wertheimer, Kurt Koffka, Wolfgang Kohler, and Kurt Lewin—seemed profoundly related to Brecht's concern with man's ability to perceive and to learn about his environment. Brecht strove to create perceptual images of historical environments. The characters, who represented various ideologies and philosophies in situations which stimulated insightful learning, struggled with life spaces that accu- rately resembled life outside the theatre. Thus, Brecht utilized elements of the theories of perception, insight, and life space in his dramas as he strove to force his audiences to perceive the characters' environments, to grasp the significance and relationships between the characters' environments and their own social milieu, and to recognize those influences in one's life space which attract or repel the individual.
