And German- Language Poetry 1960-1975 Landscape, space and place in English- and German- language poetry 1960-1975 Nicola omas esis submied to the University of Noingham for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy July 2017 Abstract is thesis examines representations of space, place and landscape in English- and German-language poetry of the period 1960-1975, a key transitional phase between modernity and postmodernity. It proposes that the impact certain transnational spatial revolutions had on contemporary poetry can only be fully grasped with recourse to comparative methodologies which look across national borders. is is demonstrated by a series of paired case studies which examine the work of J. H. Prynne and Paul Celan, Sarah Kirsch and Derek Mahon, and Ernst Jandl and Edwin Morgan. Prynne and Celan’s Sprachskepsis is the starting point for a post-structuralist analysis of meta-textual space in their work, including how poetry’s complex tectonics addresses multifaceted crises of representation. Mahon and Kirsch’s work is read in the context of spatial division, and it is argued that both use representations of landscape, space and place to express political engagement, and to negotiate fraught ideas of home, community and world. Jandl and Morgan’s representations of space and place, which oen depend on experimental lyric subjectivity, are examined: it is argued that poetic subject(s) which speak from multiple perspectives (or none) serve as a means of reconguring poetry’s relationship to space at a time when social, literary and political boundaries were being redened. e thesis thus highlights hitherto underexplored connections between a range of poets working across the two language areas, making clear that space and place is a vital critical category for understanding poetry of this period, including both experimental and non-experimental work. It reveals weaknesses in existing critical taxonomies, arguing for the use of ‘late modernist’ as category with cross-cultural relevance, and promotes methodological exchange between the Anglophone and German traditions of landscape, space and place-oriented poetry scholarship, to the benet of both. i Acknowledgements Writing this thesis was a pleasure thanks to the support I received from colleagues, friends and family.

Introduction On 12 September 1962, in a speech which was widely reported around the world, President John F. Kennedy explained his ambition to land a man safely on the moon before the end of the decade. We set sail on this new sea because there is new knowledge to be gained[.] […] ere is no strife, no prejudice, no national conict in outer space as yet. Its hazards are hostile to us all. Its conquest deserves the best of all mankind, and its opportunity for peaceful cooperation may never come again. But why, some say, the Moon? Why choose this as our goal? And they may well ask, why climb the highest mountain? Why, 35 years ago, y the Atlantic? […] We choose to go to the Moon!1 is speech marked a key moment in the Space Race and, indeed, in the cultural history of space more broadly. Although the rhetoric of his speech suggested continuity with the daring spatial explorations of the past, the introduction of extraterrestrial space as a potential realm of human conquest demanded a radical expansion of people’s understanding of the spaces which surrounded them. e US’s technological ambition was informed by changing geopolitical contexts much closer to home, which also exerted signicant inuence over 1 John F. Kennedy, quoted in Arlin Cros, e New Moon: Water, Exploration, and Future Habitation (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2014), p. 68. 1 1. Introduction 2 contemporary understandings of global space. e speech’s allusions to the threat of intergalactic conict were a reminder of the military need for new space technology. A month aer Kennedy’s speech, the Cuban Missile Crisis began, ushering in a new phase of the Cold War. Such was the impact of the Cold War on global spatial consciousness that by 1967 commentators had begun to speak of the world itself not as one contiguous domain, but rather as divided into ‘First’, ‘Second’ and ‘ird World’ countries, as if the three geopolitical groupings belonged on dierent planets entirely.2 ese terms form part of a new vocabulary of space which emerged in the 1960s and early 1970s. e OED records the rst use of the term ‘space race’ as occurring in 1955.3 Google’s Ngram viewer, which charts the frequency of chosen terms in a large corpus of published texts over time, can be used to assess the extent to which the public discourse shied throughout the twentieth century.4 e phrase ‘outer space’, rst recorded in the mid-nineteenth century, also entered the public consciousness at this time: instances of its use rose over 600% between 1950 and 1960.5 An Ngram of the most common adjectives associated with the noun ‘space’ between 1930 and 1980 shows that ‘outer space’ even overtook ‘open space’ in terms of frequency 2 e terms themselves originated in an article by the French anthropologist Alfred Sauvy, rst published in 1952.

  • Awardee: Fuad Rifka Poet, Philosopher
    Awardee: Fuad Rifka Poet, Philosopher, Translator The Lebanese poet, philosopher and translator Fuad Rifka has translated pivotal works of German poetry by Goethe, Hölderlin, Novalis, Rilke and Trakl into Arabic. His encounter with German culture and philosophy had tangible impacts on his own works of poetry. Fuad Rifka is being awarded the Goethe Medal for his impressive life’s work as a translator. Fuad Rifka’s passionate interest in German poets and thinkers began with a coincidental discovery at the Goethe-Institut Beirut more than forty years ago. It was there that Rifka found an English edition of Rainer Maria Rilke’s Duino Elegies. This volume of poetry made a lasting impression on him and awakened his desire to translate German poetry into Arabic, “to make it accessible to the entire Arabic world.” He was the first to translate Rilke’s poems directly from his mother tongue into Arabic without detours via English or French translations. Fuad Rifka was born in Syria in 1930. In the 1940s his family moved to Lebanon. He studied philosophy in Beirut and in 1965 completed his doctorate in Tübingen on the aesthetic of Martin Heidegger with a scholarship from the DAAD. When he returned to Lebanon he taught philosophy at the Lebanese American University Beirut from 1966 until 2005. German philosophers always had a fixed place in his syllabus. A number of teaching and research opportunities took Rifka to the United States, the United Kingdom, Italy and Germany. Fuad Rifka was a founding member of the Lebanese avant-garde poetry journal Shi’r (Poetry), which aimed to revolutionize traditional Arabic verse and move towards freer, experimental poetry.

  • Critical Responsei. Paratext and Genre System: a Response to Franco Moretti
    Critical Response I Paratext and Genre System: A Response to Franco Moretti Katie Trumpener In the 1970s, as a teenage browser in West Germany’s remarkably well- stocked bookstores, I noted with astonishment that many German title pages included generic designations. German plays old and new tended to announce their dramatic status in idiosyncratic subtitles that seemed to push at the limits of the genre, even question the possibility of theater itself: Friedrich Schiller, Don Carlos. Infant of Spain. A Dramatic Poem (1783–87); O¨ do¨n von Horva´th, Faith, Love, Hope: A Little Dance of Death in Five Acts (1932); Wolfgang Borchert, Outside the Door: A Play No Theater Wants to Perform and No Public Wants to See (1947); Peter Weiss, The Investigation. An Oratorio in Five Songs (1965). Works in hybrid, documentary genres often had equally idiosyncratic subtitles; East German poet Sarah Kirsch named her 1975 oral history The Panther Woman. Five Unkempt Tales from the Tape Recorder. More occasionally, a work of fiction used its subtitle to play tricks on its reader. Robert Walser published his 1908 novel, for instance, as Jakob von Gunten. A Diary (although the work that follows is not exactly a fictional diary either). Yet most books of prose fiction and of poetry, I found, bore accurate if rudimentary generic designations: Heinrich Bo¨ll’s The Bread of the Early Years. Narrative (1955); Gu¨nther Grass’s The Tin Drum. Novel (1959); Reiner Kunze’s with the volume turned down. poems (1972); Karin Struck’s Class Love. Novel (1973).

Richard A. Zipser: Während der Tauwetterphase, die der Berufung Erich Honeckers zum ersten Parteisekretär der SED im Jahre 1971 folgte, wollte ich soviel unmittelbare Informationen wie möglich sammeln über die Bedingungen für das Schreiben in der DDR, über Stellung und Anliegen der Schriftsteller und über die Rolle, die die Literatur in diesem Staate spielt. Dieses ursprüngliche Ziel erhielt jedoch ab Herbst 1976 durch die unerwartete kulturpolitische Kursänderung eine neue, unvorhergesehene, geschichtliche Dimension. Schoeps: Wann wurden die Interviews durchgeführt? Zipser: Vom Herbst 1975 bis zum Sommer 1976, also in einer Zeit der Ruhe und des Optimismus, die der Ausbürgerung Wolf Biermanns im November 1976 vorausging, konnte ich zweiunddreißig DDR-Autoren [Jurek Becker, Uwe Berger, Jurij Brezan, Günter de Bruyn, Adolf Endler, Fritz Rudolf Fries, Franz Fühmann, Günter Görlich, Peter Hacks, Stephan Hermlin, Stefan Heym, Karl-Heinz Jakobs, Bernd Jentzsch, Hermann Kant, Uwe Kant, Rainer Kirsch, Sarah Kirsch, Günter Kunert, Reiner Kunze, Karl Mickel, Irmtraud Morgner, Erik Neutsch, Eberhard Panitz, Siegfried Pitschmann, Ulrich Plenzdorf, Benno Pludra, Klaus Schlesinger, Rolf Schneider, Max Walter Schulz, Helga Schütz, Martin Stade und Paul Wiens.] befragen.

    Writing from the Periphery: W. G. Sebald and Outsider Art by Melissa Starr Etzler A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in German and the Designated Emphasis in Film Studies in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Winfried Kudszus, Chair Professor Anton Kaes Professor Anne Nesbet Spring 2014 Abstract Writing from the Periphery: W. G. Sebald and Outsider Art by Melissa Starr Etzler Doctor of Philosophy in German and the Designated Emphasis in Film Studies University of California, Berkeley Professor Winfried Kudszus, Chair This study focuses on a major aspect of literature and culture in the later twentieth century: the intersection of psychiatry, madness and art. As the antipsychiatry movement became an international intervention, W. G. Sebald’s fascination with psychopathology rapidly developed. While Sebald collected many materials on Outsider Artists and has several annotated books on psychiatry in his personal library, I examine how Sebald’s thought and writings, both academic and literary, were particularly influenced by Ernst Herbeck’s poems. Herbeck, a diagnosed schizophrenic, spent decades under the care of Dr. Leo Navratil at the psychiatric institute in Maria Gugging. Sebald became familiar with Herbeck via the book, Schizophrenie und Sprache (1966), in which Navratil analyzed his patients’ creative writings in order to illustrate commonalities between pathological artistic productions and canonical German literature, thereby blurring the lines between genius and madness. In 1980, Sebald travelled to Vienna to meet Ernst Herbeck and this experience inspired him to compose two academic essays on Herbeck and the semi-fictionalized account of their encounter in his novel Vertigo (1990).

Provokasyondan çekinmeyen Endler’in ihracına birden çok bakış açısıyla bakmak, konunun arka planını ayrıntılı bir biçimde belirlemeye olanak sağlar. Dolaysıyla bu makalede Endler’in muhalif sanatı ele alınacaktır. Diğer yandan da ADC tarafından sakıncalı görülen kişilerle ilgili yaptığı üç eylem irdelenecektir.
