Ein Europäer in Berlin Als Georg Brandes im Juni 1914 nach New York kam, mußte die Polizei Tau­ sende von Menschen zerstreuen, für die in dem Theatersaal, in dem der däni• sche Kritiker seine Vorlesung über William Shakespeare hielt, kein Platz war. 1 Brandes wurde gehört, in der Alten wie in der Neuen Welt. In Skandi­ navien aber wurde er mehr als gehört, er wurde ein Begriff, fast mythisch: der unchristlich rastlose Intellektuelle, der Aufklärer selbst. Auch in unserem Jahrzehnt erscheinen seine Schriften in Dänemark. 1986 trafen sich einige hundert Philologen aus der ganzen Welt in Göteborg mit Brandes als Thema. Vor ein paarJahrenveröffentlichte ein führender schwedischer Literaturkriti­ ker einen Roman, in dem ein fiktiver Georg Brandes in einem heutigen Kon­ text die Hauptrolle spielt. Eine englischsprachige Einführung in die aktuelle Forschung um Georg Brandes erschien 1980 unter dem treffenden Titel The Activist Critic. 2 In Deutschland war es nicht anders. In der Kaiserzeit wurde er als der ohne Zweifel bedeutendste Kritiker der Epoche betrachtet. In der heutigen deutschen Wirklichkeit aber und in der heutigen deutschen Literaturge­ schichte ist Georg Brandes ein vergessener Mann.

  • Hermann Cohens Heine Und Der Kampf Um Spinoza1
    Hermann Cohens Heine und der Kampf um Spinoza1 Von Myriam Bienenstock, Tours und Paris Dass Hermann Cohen (1842–1918), die spätere Zentralgestalt des Marburger Neu- kantianismus und ein Hauptvertreter der deutsch-jüdischen Philosophie2, bereits 1867 einen seiner ersten Aufsätze Heinrich Heine widmen sollte, ist seit langem bekannt, obgleich sein Artikel »Heinrich Heine und das Judentum«3 in der For- schung bislang nur ein geringes Interesse gefunden hat.4 In diesem kurzen Bei- trag soll, nach einigen Bemerkungen zum Kontext von Cohens Hinwendung zu Heine, der Rückgriff beider Autoren auf Spinoza behandelt werden. Das positive Bild von Spinoza, das Cohen in seinem frühen Aufsatz von Heine übernimmt, scheint auf den ersten Blick im Widerspruch zu seinen reifen Schriften der spä- teren Jahre zu stehen, in denen sich Cohen als virulenter Kritiker Spinozas zeigt. Ein Ausblick auf Cohens spätere Schriften soll indessen zeigen, dass Cohen sich weniger wandelte und sich damit weniger von Heine entfernte, als gemeinhin angenommen wird. Es scheint mir nicht besonders schwierig zu verstehen, warum sich der junge Hermann Cohen im Jahre 1867 dazu entschieden hat, einen seiner ersten Auf- sätze Heinrich Heine zu widmen, denn gerade zu dieser Zeit erwachte ein neues Interesse an dem rund zehn Jahre zuvor verstorbenen Dichter, das sich insbe- sondere in der ersten vollständigen Gesamtausgabe seiner Werke und der ersten gründlichen Biographie dokumentiert – beide von Adolf Strodtmann getragenen Unternehmen zeugen von dessen Verehrung für Heine und stellen diesen in überaus positiven Farben dar.5 Cohen fühlte sich durch diese Veröff entlichun- gen wohl dazu ermutigt, seine Religionsgenossen, für die sein Aufsatz in erster Linie bestimmt war – er veröff entlichte ihn in der Zeitschrift »Die Gegenwart«, die sich an jüdische Leser richtete –, davon zu überzeugen zu suchen, in ihrer Sympathie für Heine noch einen Schritt weiter zu gehen.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 ABSTRACT This thesis focuses on the reorganisation in exile of the African National Congress (ANC) and Pan-Africanist Congress (PAC) of South Africa during the 1960s. The 1960s are generally regarded as a period of quiescence in the historiography of the South African liberation struggle. This study partially challenges such a view. It argues that although the 1960s witnessed the progressive silencing of all forms of opposition by the apartheid government in South Africa, this was also a difficult time of experimentation and change, during which the exiled liberation movements had to adjust to the dramatically altered conditions of struggle emerging in the post-Sharpeville context.

His father was a well-to-do Jewish merchant, and his mother, the daughter of the famous physician and Aulic Counlor Von Geldern, was, according to her son, a "femme distinguee." His early childhood fell in the days of the occupation of Diisseldorf by the French revolutionary troops; in the opinion of his biographer Strodtmann the influence of the French rule, thus brought directly to bear upon the formation of his char­ acter, can scarcely be exaggerated.

The investigation covers the time from when Ibsen’s dramas were first attempted to be introduced to the time when they broke through in each of the three countries spanning the period 1852-1893. In this way, the thesis offers both a synchronic and diachronic view of the process. The thesis’ approach builds on theories of cultural transfer and investigates the agents that carried out the transfer, the cultural markets through which the plays were disseminated and finally how they were integrated into local culture. Through the three case studies, the thesis offers a transnational scope on the transfer of Ibsen’s drama as well as incorporating a plurality of perspectives to show how the transfer was contested and negotiated locally.
