  • RILKE and the MODERNIST TRADITION: a BRIEF LOOK at “ARCHAIC TORSO of ••• APOLLO”* Pyeaam ABBASI**
    Uluslararası Sosyal Araştırmalar Dergisi The Journal of International Social Research Cilt: 6 Sayı: 24 Volume: 6 Issue: 24 Kış 2013 Winter 2013 www.sosyalarastirmalar.com Issn: 1307-9581 RILKE AND THE MODERNIST TRADITION: A BRIEF LOOK AT “ARCHAIC TORSO OF ••• APOLLO”* Pyeaam ABBASI** Abstract The twentieth century is associated with drastic changes as well as disintegration of old beliefs and grand narratives. Modern poets felt that it was high time they searched for new potentialities of language and made changes in form in order to express and explore changes the world was experiencing. The oneness of the world within and the world without is not peculiar to Rilke. He explores human consciousness as well as the interaction between human and the non-human world. This paper argues that his poetry is an invitation to the reader to participate and create. In “Archaic Torso of Apollo” the transfixed poet finds the torso full of life and vitality, a complete work of art and suggestive of the modernist tradition. As a modern poet Rilke would see the world within and the world without as the same aspects of each other. He believes that existence consists of interactions between things and the perceiving selves and that the inner world, familiar to our consciousness, is continuous with, even identical to, the material world we think of as exterior to our conscious selves. The interaction between the poet (subject) and the torso (subject) creates the sense of transformation. The article concludes that transformation seems to be the most critical change that the modern man needs to experience in the chaotic and disjointed world of the 20 th century.

  • Modernist Permabulations Through Time and Space
    Journal of the British Academy, 4, 197–219. DOI 10.5871/jba/004.197 Posted 18 October 2016. © The British Academy 2016 Modernist perambulations through time and space: From Enlightened walking to crawling, stalking, modelling and street-walking Lecture in Modern Languages read 19 May 2016 ANNE FUCHS Fellow of the Academy Abstract: Analysing diverse modes of walking across a wide range of texts from the Enlightenment period and beyond, this article explores how the practice of walking was discovered by philosophers, educators and writers as a rich discursive trope that stood for competing notions of the morally good life. The discussion proceeds to then investigate how psychological, philosophical and moral interpretations of bad prac- tices of walking in particular resurface in texts by Franz Kafka, Thomas Mann and the interwar writer Irmgard Keun. It is argued that literary modernism transformed walking from an Enlightenment trope signifying progress into the embodiment of moral and epistemological ambivalence. In this process, walking becomes an expression of the disconcerting experience of modernity. The paper concludes with a discussion of walking as a gendered performance: while the male walkers in the modernist texts under discussion suffer from a bad gait that leads to ruination, the new figure of the flâneuse manages to engage in pleasurable walking by abandoning the Enlightenment legacy of the good gait. Keywords: modes of walking, discursive trope, Enlightenment discourse, modernism, modernity, moral and epistemological ambivalence, gender, flâneuse. Walking on one’s two legs is an essential but ordinary skill that, unlike cycling, skate-boarding, roller-skating or ballroom dancing, does not require special proficiency, aptitude or thought—unless, of course, we are physically impaired.

  • Halliwell, Martin. "Modernism and Adaptation."
    6 MARTIN HALLIWELL Modernism and adaptation Film adaptation has always had a love–hate relationship with literary mod- ernism. A creative union seemed almost certain in the 1910s and 1920s, though. Modernist writers were fascinated with visual media; German the- orist Walter Benjamin proclaimed film the definitive modern form; and the modernist magazine Close Up (1927–33) was forging aesthetic links between film and literary culture ‘‘from the angles of art, experiment, and possibi- lity.’’1 The energies of literary and cinematic modernism in the years either side of World War I promised an imaginative movement beyond the limits of written and visual forms. Many modernist writers could be ‘‘profoundly cinematic even when not fully cognizant of it’’; filmmakers such as D. W. Griffith, Georges Me´lie`s and Eric von Stroheim were drawn to the written word because it lent early cinema aesthetic validity; and two 1928 versions of The Fall of the House of Usher by French director Jean Epstein and American team James Sibley Watson Jr. and Melville Webber showed what could be achieved by transforming Edgar Allan Poe’s gothic tale into visually provo- cative cinema.2 However, when it comes to cinematic adaptations of modernist fiction filmmakers have often found themselves faced with major technical pro- blems. Critics Gilberto Perez and Sam Girgus have argued that these pro- blems derive from the way in which modernist culture exacerbates the tension between film as a ‘‘reflective’’ form (representing and documenting) and a ‘‘creative’’ medium (reworking and transforming).3 This tension is true of all adaptations, but is particularly acute within the framework of modern- ism for three main reasons.

  • A Surrealist Reading: Formlessness and Nondifferentiation in Yitzhak Orpaz’S the Hunting of the Gazelle (Tseyd Ha-Tsviyah, 1966) a Cycle of Three Stories*
    A SURREALIST READING: FORMLESSNESS AND NONDIFFERENTIATION IN YITZHAK ORPAZ’S THE HUNTING OF THE GAZELLE (TSEYD HA-TSVIYAH, 1966) A CYCLE OF THREE STORIES* GIULIA F MILLER** Introduction The research for this paper was initiated by the following question: Why is it that avant-gardes literary trends such as Futurism and Expressionism have been evidently incorporated into Modern Hebrew poetry and prose – alongside detailed and comprehensive critical discourse regarding this incorporation – whereas the same cannot be said of Surrealism? There is no official Hebrew or Israeli Surrealist movement or extensive critical study of Hebrew Surrealism either in literature or in the visual arts and – as I shall demonstrate – this particular absence is true in only a few other countries and consequently Israel stands out in being one of these countries.1 The question thus raised two concerns: the first, which cannot be denied, is the complete absence of a collective, national Israeli affiliation with Surrealism and the second, which is more problematic, is the seeming lack of a Surrealist influence upon Modern Hebrew literature.2 The latter concern is not as relevant to other national literatures simply because so many countries have or have had nationally affiliated Surrealist movements, which in turn suggests an impact. The fact that there has never been a Hebrew or Israeli equivalent renders the concern more pertinent. My question then developed into something of a more historicist nature: is it possible that there are instances of Hebrew Surrealism within literature that are the result of an inner poetic need rather than any conscious affiliation with the movement? If so, how would we define this particular Surrealism and what would it signify? My response to these questions was originally twofold: first I analysed a selection of little known Modern Hebrew texts from the nineteen thirties that do surprisingly suggest a direct influence by the French Surrealist movement in particular on Modern Hebrew literature.

  • Style in Death in Venice: Mann, Visconti, Britten
    1 ‘What could art and virtue mean to him now, when he might reap the advantages of chaos?’ Style in Death in Venice: Mann, Visconti, Britten Jonathan Rees An appreciation of the intricacies of style is fundamental to a modernist reading of Death in Venice in its iterations as novella (1911), film (1971) and opera (1973). Yet, it is problematic to assume that the styles adopted by Thomas Mann, Luchino Visconti and Benjamin Britten are intrinsically modernist. Indeed, critics including Ernst Grabovszki, Hans Rudolf Vaget and Gary Schmidgall have all commented on the conservative approach of these artists.1 Furthermore, the very idea of a modernist style is often anachronistic. As Michael Bell outlines ‘a central paradox of Modernism [is that] the most sophisticated achievement of the present is a return to, or a new appreciation of, the archaic.’2 Coupled with these initial difficulties is that the three texts originate from different parts of Europe, at different ends of the twentieth-century. As a result, there are logistical and temporal challenges involved in identifying an overarching modernist style that is discernible in them. And of course, there are the mediums in which the texts appear to consider also. Nonetheless, a more nuanced understanding of modernist style, which may alleviate some of these tensions, can be accomplished. As Malcolm Bradbury and James 1 See Ernst Grabovszki, ‘Literary Movements of the 1890s: Impressionism, Symbolism, and fin-de- siecle Austria’, in German Literature of the Nineteenth Century, 1832-1899, ed.

  • Old and New in Modernist Art
    Chapter 2: Old and New in Modernist Art Mr. Thomas T. Baxter presents what appears to be a figure of Christ teaching a dickey-bird to chew worms. This work is labelled "St. Francis" (D‟Asise). I cannot concede his background but the face is remarkable; it is painted with very great skill, and the frenetic modernist who rushes by the picture merely because of the demoded subject-matter will miss one of the best pieces of detail in the exhibition. (Ezra pound, writing as B. H. Dias, in The New Age for January 17, 1918--22.12.235, emphasis added) Among the many kinds of artists, it may be that there are some who are hybrid. Some, that is to say, bore deeper and deeper into the stuff of their own art; others are always making raids into the lands of others. Sickert, it may be, is among the hybrids, the raiders. But . he is probably the best painter now living in England. (Virginia Woolf, writing in 1933, The Captain's Death Bed and Other Essays, 201-202, emphasis added) In 1918, we find Ezra Pound worrying about "the frenetic modernist" who will miss something of great beauty because its subject matter, which Pound himself has mocked, is "demoded." And, as late as 1933, we find Virginia Woolf, reporting on a conversation in "Bloomsbury" about Walter Sickert, in which a consensus is reached that this derivative painter, whose work is often naturalistic in its content, and might well have been associated by Woolf with her despised Edwardians, is the best that England has to offer.

  • Baudelaire's Influence on the Modernist Poetry of T.S. Eliot
    Baudelaire’s Influence on the Modernist Poetry of T.S. Eliot Tuğçe Kaptan1 Abstract This study explores the transformation of Paris and its effect on the new movement Symbolism which influences American modernism. This movement is explained through the works of Charles Baudelaire who has an enormous impact on T.S. Eliot, W.B. Yeats and Ezra Pound. Since symbolism was the only movement that modernist writers of America found close to their era. They could not break off; on the contrary they took some essential parts of it which was a main source of inspiration. Therefore, as a symbolist poet, Charles Baudelaire influenced T.S. Eliot and like Baudelaire T.S. Eliot focused on the brokenness and falseness of modern experience and he found symbolism close to his era, therefore he took some essential parts as an inspiration. For this reason, the influence of symbolism on Modernist literature cannot be ignored. Keywords: Modernism, Symbolism, Brokenness, Falseness, Modern Experience, Modernist Literature, Transformation Özet Bu çalışma, Paris’in dönüşümünü ve Amerikan Modernizmine tesir eden Sembolizmin bu dönüşüm üzerindeki etkisini inceler. Bu akım T.S. Eliot, W.B. Yeats ve Ezra Pound gibi yazarlar üzerinde etkili olan Charles Baudelaire’in eserleri ile açıklanmıştır. Amerikan yazarlar sembolizmi kendi çağlarına yakın buldukları için, sembolizmden bağlarını koparamamışlardır, tam tersine sembolizmi ilham kaynağı olarak almışlardır. Bu sebepten dolayı Charles Baudelaire’in T.S. Eliot üzerinde olan etkisi büyüktür ve T.S Eliot da Baudelaire gibi modern hayatın getirmiş olduğu parçalanmışlık ve sahteliğe odaklanmıştır. Sembolizmi ise kendi dönemine daha yakın gördüğü için temel kısımlarını almıştır. 1 Öğr.

The X-ray portrait penetrates through the surface layers of clothes and skin, and reveals an inner world of delicate bones, internal organs, and ghostlike flesh. The X-ray keepsake is a new form of memory, mediated by technology. In this smart and engaging book, Sara Danius brings a historicizing approach and close textual analysis to key passages in the modernist canon. The ques- tions she asks of Mann’s Magic Mountain, Marcel Proust’s Remembrance of Things Past, and James Joyce’s Ulysses are difficult and intelligent ones. How did photography, gramophones, motion pictures, city trams, automobiles, and airplanes affect modern- ist culture? How did modernist writers engage these perception-changing technolo- gies? Why is the obvious presence of technology in their works hard to see? How can we conceptualize these changes in technology, culture, and aesthetics? To begin, she suggests that a deep-seated antitechnological bias accounts for the great silence about technology in the standard interpretations of literary modernism. The bias began with the modernists themselves (making intellectual space in a technol- ogy saturated culture) and it continued with the legion of critics and interpreters who followed in their wake.
