Bos Kirkland A. Fulk Sabine Hake Jan Uelzmann The Marxisms of West Germany's "1968": Remaking a Public Critique through Literary Magazines by Josch Lampe Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Texas at Austin May 2021 Acknowledgements First of all, I would like to thank my supervisor and committee, without whom this dissertation would not have been possible. The University of Texas at Austin and its Department of Germanic Studies have been crucial for this research project in both intellectual and financial ways. Research grants for the summers of 2018 and 2019 from the Department and a University Graduate Continuing Fellowship from the Graduate School for the academic year 2019–20 made it possible for me to devote my energies to my project and to complete it despite the disruptions of 2020. I would also like to thank the American Friends of Marbach, who granted me a dissertation fellowship to conduct research at the German Literature Archive in Marbach, Germany, in the summer of 2018. Vast parts of this dissertation are based on data that I was able to access thanks to the archivists, researchers, and staff in Marbach, especially Jan Bürger, Christoph Hilse, Gerhild Kölling, Petra Weiß, and Robert Zwarg. Special thanks also to Hans Christoph Buch, Hans Magnus Enzensberger, the heirs to the Karl Markus Michel estate, and everyone at Rowohlt Verlag and Suhrkamp Verlag for granting me access to their archives at Marbach and permission to reproduce excerpts in my text. iv Abstract The Marxisms of West Germany's "1968": Remaking a Public Critique through Literary Magazines Josch Lampe, Ph.D. The University of Texas at Austin, 2021 Supervisor: Katherine Arens My dissertation focuses on two of West Germany's preeminent literary magazines—Kursbuch (founded in 1965) and Literaturmagazin (founded in 1973)—and the ways in which they sought to shape and redefine a literary public sphere as a site of intellectual, cultural, and political critique during the long '68, as well as their role in the reevaluation and dissemination of different, global Marxisms. It combines archival research on the editorial correspondence and conceptualization of these respective magazines with a detailed analysis of their content in order to better understand the intellectual event "1968" and its immediate aftermath as part of a larger contested history of publishing practices in West Germany after 1945. My work outlines how these two publications not only trafficked in different Marxisms at different times and to different ends, but also took part in the (re)constitution of an engaged literary public sphere through the creation, design, and circulation of competing conceptions of literary magazines. More critically, I argue that Kursbuch and Literaturmagazin suggest clear evidence of a continuation of Marxist debates from earlier eras about the links of aesthetic judgment and political action (such as the so-called v Realism-Modernism Debate), indicating that "1968" is a mere interim stage in an unfinished debate on Marxist aesthetics. My project therefore recoups a set of West German and international voices that have been too often overlooked as viable experiments in Western Marxisms within an international framework, not just as part of West Germany's nation-(re)building and World War II recovery. In other words, these magazines brought to public discussion a broader spectrum of leftist thought. I illustrate how the journals' editorial staffs were assessing West Germany by addressing its weaknesses through the lenses of an inherently international, multilayered, and often incoherent set of Marxist agendas in the making. vi Table of Contents Introduction: Setting the Argument .....................................................................................1 Chapter 1: FRG Contexts for Two Literary Magazines .....................................................24 Historicizing Postwar Germany: Why the Nation Took a Left Turn .......................25 Enzensberger's Path to Kursbuch ..............................................................................34 Historicizing the Rebellion's Aftermath and Literaturmagazin ................................40 Buch's Path to Literaturmagazin ..............................................................................49 Some Concluding Remarks ......................................................................................61 Chapter 2: Kursbuch and Literaturmagazin at Their Origins ............................................63 Definition(s) of Literary Magazines: Periodicals and the Public Sphere .................64 Functions of a Literary Magazine .............................................................................68 Kursbuch Emerges ....................................................................................................75 Literaturmagazin Emerges .......................................................................................84 Some Concluding Remarks ......................................................................................94 Chapter 3: The Politics of Culture in a Broken Political Culture ....................................100 Abstract Materiality or Material Abstraction?

This documentary turn equates commitment and literary realism with political engagement (Roberts 1989, xv). It aims to be a "discovery process" of the "the new and the hitherto unreported, unrepresented, and unseen," and understands itself as a "conquest of reality and a weapon in cognitive struggle" (Jameson 2012, 476). This politicized paradigm shift, however, did not come out of nowhere. During the 1960s, certain changed social and political circumstances led to a corresponding adaptation of reading practices and, consequently, to a changed status of Marxism (Sepp 2019, 232). In search of a Western-oriented postwar identity, West Germany's (FRG) political administration of the 1950s was linked to Chancellor Konrad Adenauer's (1876–1967) Restaurationspolitik [politics of postwar restoration], military rearmament, demarcation 1 of the FRG against the Eastern bloc states, and anti-communist policies.1 In the 1960s, Adenauer's conservative course developed into a new centrism, following numerous controversial events: the Marxist Left of the SDS (Sozialistischer Deutscher Studentenbund [Socialist Student Association of Germany]) was

  • When Fear Is Substituted for Reason: European and Western Government Policies Regarding National Security 1789-1919
    WHEN FEAR IS SUBSTITUTED FOR REASON: EUROPEAN AND WESTERN GOVERNMENT POLICIES REGARDING NATIONAL SECURITY 1789-1919 Norma Lisa Flores A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY December 2012 Committee: Dr. Beth Griech-Polelle, Advisor Dr. Mark Simon Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Michael Brooks Dr. Geoff Howes Dr. Michael Jakobson © 2012 Norma Lisa Flores All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Dr. Beth Griech-Polelle, Advisor Although the twentieth century is perceived as the era of international wars and revolutions, the basis of these proceedings are actually rooted in the events of the nineteenth century. When anything that challenged the authority of the state – concepts based on enlightenment, immigration, or socialism – were deemed to be a threat to the status quo and immediately eliminated by way of legal restrictions. Once the façade of the Old World was completely severed following the Great War, nations in Europe and throughout the West started to revive various nineteenth century laws in an attempt to suppress the outbreak of radicalism that preceded the 1919 revolutions. What this dissertation offers is an extended understanding of how nineteenth century government policies toward radicalism fostered an environment of increased national security during Germany’s 1919 Spartacist Uprising and the 1919/1920 Palmer Raids in the United States. Using the French Revolution as a starting point, this study allows the reader the opportunity to put events like the 1848 revolutions, the rise of the First and Second Internationals, political fallouts, nineteenth century imperialism, nativism, Social Darwinism, and movements for self-government into a broader historical context.

  • Descrizione Storica Delle Carte (ITA)
    PRIMA DECADE I. Russian Tanks (DDR 1953) Nel maggio 1953, il Politburo del Partito di Unita’ Socialista della Germania (SED) innalzo’ le quote di lavoro dell'industria del 10 %. Il 16 giugno, una sessantina di operai edili di Berlino Est iniziarono a scioperare quando i loro superiori annunciarono un taglio di stipendio in caso di mancato raggiungimento delle quote. La loro manifestazione del giorno seguente fu la scintilla che causò lo scoppio delle proteste in tutta la Germania Est. Lo sciopero portò al blocco del lavoro e a proteste in praticamente tutti i centri industriali e in tutte le grandi città del Paese; le richieste iniziali dei dimostranti, come il ripristino delle precedenti (e inferiori) quote di lavoro, si tramutarono in richieste politiche. I lavoratori chiesero le dimissioni del governo della Germania Est che, per contro, si rivolse all'Unione Sovietica per schiacciare la rivolta con la forza militare. 1. Land Reform (DDR 19451945----1948)1948) Le riforme agrarie ("Bodenreform") prevedevano l'espropriazione di tutte le terre appartenenti agli attivisti del nazismo. Circa 500 proprietà degli Junker furono convertite in fattorie collettive, e più di 30.000 km² vennero distribuiti tra mezzo milione di contadini. Inoltre vennero costituite le prime fattorie statali, chiamate Volkseigenes Gut. 2. Forced Merger of KPD and SPD (DDR 1946) Un decreto del 10 giugno 1945 da parte delle autorità sovietiche permise la formazione di partiti democratici antifascisti; le prime elezioni vennero indette a ottobre 1946. Nel luglio 1945 si costituì una coalizione di partiti democratici antifascisti, formata da KPD, SPD, CDU, LDPD. Nell'aprile 1946 il KPD (il partito comunista tedesco e la SPD si fusero dietro grandi pressioni da parte dei sovietici, formando la SED (Sozialistische Einheitspartei Deutschlands, Partito di Unità Socialista).

  • From Humiliation to Humanity Reconciling Helen Goldman’S Testimony with the Forensic Strictures of the Frankfurt Auschwitz Trial
    S: I. M. O. N. Vol. 8|2021|No.1 SHOAH: INTERVENTION. METHODS. DOCUMENTATION. Andrew Clark Wisely From Humiliation to Humanity Reconciling Helen Goldman’s Testimony with the Forensic Strictures of the Frankfurt Auschwitz Trial Abstract On 3 September 1964, during the Frankfurt Auschwitz trial, Helen Goldman accused SS camp doctor Franz Lucas of selecting her mother and siblings for the gas chamber when the family arrived at Birkenau in May 1944. Although she could identify Lucas, the court con- sidered her information under cross-examination too inconsistent to build a case against Lucas. To appreciate Goldman’s authority, we must remove her from the humiliation of the West German legal gaze and inquire instead how she is seen through the lens of witness hospitality (directly by Emmi Bonhoeffer) and psychiatric assessment (indirectly by Dr Walter von Baeyer). The appearance of Auschwitz survivor Helen (Kaufman) Goldman in the court- room of the Frankfurt Auschwitz trial on 3 September 1964 was hard to forget for all onlookers. Goldman accused the former SS camp doctor Dr Franz Lucas of se- lecting her mother and younger siblings for the gas chamber on the day the family arrived at Birkenau in May 1944.1 Lucas, considered the best behaved of the twenty defendants during the twenty-month-long trial, claimed not to recognise his accus- er, who after identifying him from a line-up became increasingly distraught under cross-examination. Ultimately, the court rejected Goldman’s accusations, choosing instead to believe survivors of Ravensbrück who recounted that Lucas had helped them survive the final months of the war.2 Goldman’s breakdown of credibility echoed the experience of many prosecution witnesses in West German postwar tri- als after 1949.

This year alone has seen sustained media interest in events in the Persian Gulf, including protests, the Iran plane crash and ongoing diplomatic conflicts. To comprehend this vibrant geographical area and its politics, one must gain insight into the region's history, the construction and interconnectedness of its different societies and cultures, the role of religion and the political bodies that exist in the Gulf. As such, the Council Library has compiled this reading list relating to the Persian Gulf. This extensive list has been created both for people who are new to the complex geopolitics of the Persian Gulf, and for those already familiar with the region and its geopolitics. It consists of various books and e-books, articles, podcast episodes, videos and think tank publications, varying from two-minutes' reading, listening or viewing time to more immersive material that can be accessed via the Council Library's online catalogue, Eureka.

Greg Garrard) The contrast between the largely enthusiastic response to ecocriticism in the Anglophone academy and its relative invisibility in the German-speaking world is a puzzle. Why has it yet to gain wider recognition as a field of literary study in Germany, Austria and Switzerland, countries in whose philosophy and cultural tradition nature features so prominently, whose people are shown by international surveys of public opinion to show a high degree of environmental concern, and where environmental issues rank consistently high on the political agenda? One reason may be that German scientists, political thinkers and philosophers have been pioneers in ecology since Humboldt and Haeckel, and non-fiction books have served as the primary medium of public debate on environmental issues in Germany.

  • Chapter 6. the Voice of the Other America: African
    Chapter 6 Th e Voice of the Other America African-American Music and Political Protest in the German Democratic Republic Michael Rauhut African-American music represents a synthesis of African and European tradi- tions, its origins reaching as far back as the early sixteenth century to the begin- ning of the systematic importation of “black” slaves to the European colonies of the American continent.1 Out of a plethora of forms and styles, three basic pil- lars of African-American music came to prominence during the wave of indus- trialization that took place at the start of the twentieth century: blues, jazz, and gospel. Th ese forms laid the foundation for nearly all important developments in popular music up to the present—whether R&B, soul and funk, house music, or hip-hop. Th anks to its continual innovation and evolution, African-American music has become a constitutive presence in the daily life of several generations. In East Germany, as throughout European countries on both sides of the Iron Curtain, manifold directions and derivatives of these forms took root. Th ey were carried through the airwaves and seeped into cultural niches until, fi nally, this music landed on the political agenda. Both fans and functionaries discovered an enormous social potential beneath the melodious surface, even if their aims were for the most part in opposition. For the government, the implicit rejection of the communist social model represented by African-American music was seen as a security issue and a threat to the stability of the system. Even though the state’s reactions became weaker over time, the offi cial interaction with African-American music retained a political connotation for the life of the regime.

Despite the growing number of works addressing the black experience in and with Imperial Germany, Nazi Germany, West Germany, and contemporary Germany, few studies have devoted attention to the black experience in and with East Germany. In this work, the outline of this transatlantic relationship is defined, detailing who was involved in the friendship, why they were involved, and what they hoped to gain from this alliance.
