Staging Memory: The Drama Inside the Language of Elfriede Jelinek Abstract This essay focuses on Jelinek's problematic relationship to her native Austria, as it is reflected in some of her most recent plays: Ein Sportstück (A Piece About Sports), In den Alpen (In the Alps) and Das Werk (The Plant). Taking her acceptance speech for the 2004 Nobel Prize for Literature as a starting point, my essay explores Jelinek's unique approach to her native language, which carries both the burden of historic guilt and the challenge of a distinguished, if tortured literary legacy. Furthermore, I examine the performative force of her language. Jelinek's "Dramas" do not unfold in action and dialogue, rather, they are embedded in the grammar itself.

    Urban Opera: Navigating Modernity through the Oeuvre of Strauss and Hofmannsthal by Solveig M. Heinz A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Germanic Languages and Literatures) in the University of Michigan 2013 Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Vanessa H. Agnew, Chair Associate Professor Naomi A. André Associate Professor Andreas Gailus Professor Julia C. Hell i For John ii Acknowledgements Writing this dissertation was an intensive journey. Many people have helped along the way. Vanessa Agnew was the most wonderful Doktormutter a graduate student could have. Her kindness, wit, and support were matched only by her knowledge, resourcefulness, and incisive critique. She took my work seriously, carefully reading and weighing everything I wrote. It was because of this that I knew my work and ideas were in good hands. Thank you Vannessa, for taking me on as a doctoral rookie, for our countless conversations, your smile during Skype sessions, coffee in Berlin, dinners in Ann Arbor, and the encouragement to make choices that felt right. Many thanks to my committee members, Naomi André, Andreas Gailus, and Julia Hell, who supported the decision to work with the challenging field of opera and gave me the necessary tools to succeed. Their open doors, email accounts, good mood, and guiding feedback made this process a joy. Mostly, I thank them for their faith that I would continue to work and explore as I wrote remotely. Not on my committee, but just as important was Hartmut. So many students have written countless praises of this man. I can only concur, he is simply the best.

  • Heinrich Von Kleist
    Heinrich von Kleist: Das gescheiterte Genie (Paper VIII, Paper X) Tue 2-3 (wks: 5-8), Taylor Institution Rm 2 This four-week lecture will cover the life and selected writings of Heinrich von Kleist. Besides the prescribed text for paper X, the play ‘Prinz Friedrich von Homburg’, the course will focus on the modernity and openness of Kleist’s work, making him up until the present day one of the most eminent authors in German language. His reputation becomes apparent in the continuous presence of his plays on German stages. While none of his works is autobiographic in a narrow sense, his narrative prose and his plays in many ways reflect the author’s personal struggle with emotions, sexuality and his failure ever to pursue a satisfactory career. To a certain extent, Kleist can be regarded as the contemporary counterpart to Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, the omnipotent embodiment of artistic genius. Finally, the lecture will address Kleist’s unabated relevance, exploring the ambiguities of justice and violence in texts like ‘Michael Kohlhaas’ and ‘die Hermannsschlacht’. This course will be held in German, which makes it particularly suitable for 2nd year students intending to spend their year abroad at a German university and for finalists who would like to improve their German language skills, in particular with relation to literature. To support language learning alongside the lecture’s literary subject matter, specific vocabulary will be addressed and the content will be recapitulated regularly throughout the lecture. Lecture plan: Week 5: Kleist: Leben – Themen – Rezeption Week 6: Widersprüche der Lektüre: Das Erdbeben in Chili Week 7: Die Geburt des Partisanen aus dem Geist der Poesie: Michael Kohlhaas / Die Hermannsschlacht Week 8: Traum und Wirklichkeit: Prinz Friedrich von Homburg Letters in German Literature: From Goethe's ‚’Werther’ to Kafka's 'Brief an den Vater' (Paper VIII, Paper X) Tue 9-10 (wks:1-8), 47 Wellington Square, Grnd Flr Lec Rm 1 This seminar will address the role of the letter in the history of German literature through selected examples.

  • Austria and China in Hofmannsthal and Kafka's Orientalist Fictions
    Eastern Empires and Middle Kingdoms: Austria and China in Hofmannsthal and Kafka’s Orientalist Fictions Robert Lemon, Harvard University. Apart from the title of “empire”, Habsburg Austria and Manchu China would seem to have little in common. Yet nineteenth-century satirists used China as a metaphor for Austria in order to critique the decadence, authoritarianism and political stagnation of Europe’s “middle kingdom”. While the German poet Ludwig Börne was the first to condemn Austria as “the European China”,1 it was, not surprisingly, a native son, Franz Grillparzer, who produced the first sustained allegory on this theme, disguising various Habsburg Emperors as Oriental despots in order to lampoon their regimes.2 However, the Sino-Austrian connection represented more than the Enlightenment ruse of masking social critique as exotic travelogue. In his book Franz Kafka aus Prag, Jiri Grusa stresses this political analogy, claiming that Kafka’s Chinese metaphors are nothing exotic given “the ‘Confucian’ institutions of the Habsburg Empire,” “its mandarin civil service” and “almost ‘Chinese’ idolatry of the state” (10). I should stress at this stage that I do not intend to examine whether Manchu China really epitomized anachronistic and corrupt despotism, as much of contemporary Europe believed.3 Instead I will contextualize within contemporary political and racial discourses two Orientalist texts from the Habsburg fin-de-siècle, Hugo von Hofmannsthal’s poem “The Emperor of China speaks” (1897) and Franz Kafka’s story “The Great Wall of China” (1917). For these works invoke the Sino-Austrian connection not merely for satirical effect, but rather to critique received notions of national and ethnic identity and thus question the fundamental legitimacy of their own “eastern empire” (the literal meaning of Österreich in German.) Although “The Emperor of China speaks” is a monologue by a monomaniacal speaker, Hofmannsthal deftly subverts the Emperor’s pretensions.

  • The Work of Hofmannsthal, Rilke and Celan (3 Credits)
    Love, Death, Politics, and Selfhood: The Work of Hofmannsthal, Rilke and Celan (3 credits) Spring 2012 01:470:387:01 Index: 73118 MW4 - 1:10 pm - 2:30 pm SC 116 Salvatore Pappalardo German House 172 College Avenue 732-932-7201 [email protected] Office Hours, Mondays 11.30 am – 12.30 pm or by appointment Course description: This course has two main goals. First, we will explore the poetry of three major literary figures: Hugo von Hofmannsthal, Rainer Maria Rilke, and Paul Celan. We will read their poetry against the background of the aesthetic and political transformations of their time, and study their literary and critical production in prose. These poets take us on a journey that brings the reader to several places formerly located in the Habsburg Empire: Vienna, Prague, the Bukovina region, and Duino near Trieste. In covering the poetic production from the 1890s to the 1970s, we will focus our discussions on the themes of love, death, politics and selfhood. We will see how these poets represented the relationship between the subject and the world and how they participated in philosophical debates by mixing faint echoes of an epic tradition with lyrical and elegiac tones. Another important goal of this course is learning how to approach and read a poetic text. Over the course of the semester students will read German literature in the original language, and improve their grammar skills by writing and revising their weekly response papers. All readings, discussions, and writing in German. Prerequisites : Successful completion of 232, or placement Required texts: Rainer Maria Rilke.

  • Zur Kulturpoetik Des Briefs Um 1900 - Korre- Spondenzen Hugo Von Hofmannsthals Und Rainer Maria Rilkes / Jörg Schuster
    B KULTURWISSENSCHAFTEN BD LITERATUR UND LITERATURWISSENSCHAFT BDBA Deutsche Literatur Personale Informationsmittel Hugo von HOFMANNSTHAL; Rainer Maria RILKE Brief Poetik 16-1 "Kunstleben" : zur Kulturpoetik des Briefs um 1900 - Korre- spondenzen Hugo von Hofmannsthals und Rainer Maria Rilkes / Jörg Schuster. - Paderborn : Fink, 2014. - 429 S. : Ill. ; 24 cm. - Zugl.: Marburg, Univ., Habil.-Schr., 2012. - ISBN 978-3-7705- 5602-1 : EUR 58.00 [#3688] Wenn in dem berühmten Brief an Lord Chandos der Befund formuliert wird, daß die Worte wie modrige Pilze im Mund zerfallen, erscheint es nahelie- gend, den Brief der Jahrhundertwende als „Ausdruck einer Krisenstimmung“ (S. 20) zu werten. Daß dieses Urteil jedoch deutlich zu differenzieren ist, hat Jörg Schuster in seiner Habilitationsschrift anhand ausgewählter Briefwech- sel von Hugo von Hofmannsthal und Rainer Maria Rilke fundiert dargelegt. Beide Dichter waren professionelle Briefschreiber und haben „jeweils weit über 10.000 Briefe“ (S. 19) hinterlassen. Schuster demonstriert in seiner Darstellung, wie das „Sich-Einrichten“ und „Sich-Arrangieren mittels Briefen“ (S. 24) zum kennzeichnenden Merkmal der Gattung ‚Brief‘ um 1900 avan- ciert. Mit dem Begriff „Kunstleben“ (S. 26), der Lou Andreas-Salomés Brief vom 10. August 1903 an Rilke entnommen ist, erfaßt Schuster die Entwick- lungsbewegung vom Leben zur Kunst, aus der bei Hofmannsthal und Rilke spezifische epistolare Selbstinszenierungen resultieren. Die Arbeit ist in vier Teile gegliedert und setzt mit einem einleitenden Über- blick über die Kulturpoetik des Briefs um 1900 ein.1 Den eigentlichen Gehalt der Monographie machen jedoch die facettenreichen Untersuchungen der Korrespondenzen von Hofmannsthal und Rilke aus. Werden im Falle Hof- mannsthals die Briefwechsel mit Stefan George, Marie von Gomperz, Ru- dolf Borchardt, Richard Beer-Hofmann und Harry Graf Kessler behandelt, stehen im Falle Rilkes die Briefwechsel mit Magda von Hattingberg, Lou Andreas-Salomé und Marina Zwetajewa im Vordergrund.

Students opting to take comprehensive examinations will be responsible for a total of 50 works. This will consist of 40 works (the total of the minimum number of works from each period/subject) plus 10 elective works from the students’ periods or subjects of interest. Students opting to write a thesis are only responsible for 40 works (representing the minimum from each period/subject). Works marked by a * are required both for the comprehensive examination and for the oral examination of the M.A. thesis; they can however be replaced by another work from that period or author in consultation with the student’s adviser. The student may in general tailor the list according to his/her own interests by focussing on certain periods and by selecting different works, which may include films, operas, operettas, radio plays, essays, or major works on linguistics and philology. The student’s individualized reading list will have to be approved by student’s adviser. Students in German who do a thesis choose a director from among the graduate faculty in German. If one cannot be found, but can be found in another specialty within Modern Languages, the student may petition the Graduate Program Coordinator for French, German, and Spanish, for an exception. Primary Literature MEDIEVAL (minimum 2; works from this period can be read in English or Modern German) Das Nibelungenlied (1200) Wolfram von Eschenbach: Parzival (1200/10) Gottfried von Straßburg: Tristan und Isolt (1210) Hartmann von Aue: Erec or Iwein *Lyric poems by Walther von der Vogelweide and other Minnesänger (selections in Middle High German) EARLY MODERN (minimum 2) Johannes von Tepl: Der Ackermann aus Böhmen (1401) Martin Luther: An den christlichen Adel deutscher Nation (1520) *Hans Sachs: Fastnachtsspiele (selections) H.
