  • Exile and Holocaust Literature in German and Austrian Post-War Culture
    Religions 2012, 3, 424–440; doi:10.3390/rel3020424 OPEN ACCESS religions ISSN 2077-1444 www.mdpi.com/journal/religions Article Haunted Encounters: Exile and Holocaust Literature in German and Austrian Post-war Culture Birgit Lang School of Languages and Linguistics, The University of Melbourne, Parkville 3010 VIC, Australia; E-Mail: [email protected] Received: 2 May 2012; in revised form: 11 May 2012 / Accepted: 12 May 2012 / Published: 14 May 2012 Abstract: In an essay titled ‗The Exiled Tongue‘ (2002), Nobel Prize winner Imre Kertész develops a genealogy of Holocaust and émigré writing, in which the German language plays an important, albeit contradictory, role. While the German language signified intellectual independence and freedom of self-definition (against one‘s roots) for Kertész before the Holocaust, he notes (based on his engagement with fellow writer Jean Améry) that writing in German created severe difficulties in the post-war era. Using the examples of Hilde Spiel and Friedrich Torberg, this article explores this notion and asks how the loss of language experienced by Holocaust survivors impacted on these two Austrian-Jewish writers. The article argues that, while the works of Spiel and Torberg are haunted by the Shoah, the two writers do not write in the post-Auschwitz language that Kertész delineates in his essays, but are instead shaped by the exile experience of both writers. At the same time though, Kertész‘ concept seems to be haunted by exile, as his reception of Jean Améry‘s works, which form the basis of his linguistic genealogies, shows an inability to integrate the experience of exile.

Road network of Nepal is categorized into the strategic road network (SRN), which comprises of highways and feeder roads, and the local road network (LRN), comprising of district roads and Urban roads. Nepal’s road network consists of about 64,500 km of roads. Of these, about 13,500 km belong to the SRN, the core network of national highways and feeder roads connecting district headquarters. (Picture : Nepal Road Standard 2070) The network density is low, at 14 kms per 100 km2 and 0.9 km per 1,000 people. 60% of the road network is concentrated in the lowland (Terai) areas. A Department of Roads (DoR’s) survey shows that 50% of the population of the hill areas still must walk two hours to reach an SRN road. Two of the 77 district headquarters, namely Humla, and Dolpa are yet to be connected to the SRN. Page 1 (Source: Sector Assessment [Summary]: Road Transport) Primary Roads in Nepal S. Rd.

Ramamoorthy, Ph.D. Assistant Managing Editor: Swarna Thirumalai, M.A. Development and Communication for the Deprived Radheshyam Jadhav, M.A., M.J.C., Ph.D. ===================================================== Abstract The contribution deprived people make to the social, spiritual and material advancement of their nations, communities, families and the next generation sets the scene for the redefining and reconceptualising of the model of development which propels the focus from the generalized concept of development, to the development of the deprived. Certain creative individuals and communities reject traditional values and prefer / pave a new innovative path. In South Asian countries the women, religious minorities, those coming from exploited classes and castes suffering at the hands of institutionalized oppressive structures are retaliating with affirmative action to the structural oppression and developmental discontent. The development models/ paradigms that have emerged from practical life situation are innovations of the deprived and have grown mostly out of people’s participation and people’s thirst for satisfaction. The ingredients of the above models are – a sense of emotional satisfaction to have actively participated, a sense of pride evolving solutions to the problems on hand and a sense of mental and physical achievement. Development here is assumed as a popular participatory process of sustainable social, spiritual and material advancement for emancipation and empowerment.
