Nina Franoszek, Stephanie Parker, Danna Hansen, Judith Scott. www.ninafranoszek.com 1 Nina Franoszek Press Reviews - Villa Aurora Foundation for European - American Relations The Villa Aurora Foundation is dedicated to freedom of expression and creativity and brings European artists and intellectuals to Los Angeles, to work and interact with interested communities within Southern California. Since 1995, the Villa has been home to nearly one hundred visual artists, composers, filmmakers, and writers who are chosen by peer review to pursue their own projects for a period of three months. Every year the villa, in cooperation with PEN, also awards the Feuchtwanger Fellowship for up to twelve month to a writer who is being persecuted or forced to love in exile. We offer a wide range of public lectures, debates, panel discussions, symposia, film screenings, concerts and performances. The villa’s web site, located at www.villa-aurora.org , provides extensive information about current and upcoming events. History of Villa Aurora "A veritable castle by the sea" is what German author Thomas Mann once called Villa Aurora, the former home of Mann's fellow countryman and writer Lion Feuchtwanger and his wife Marta. The Villa was built in 1927 by the Los Angeles Times as a demonstration home on the picturesque hills of Pacific Palisades. Lion and Marta Feuchtwanger purchased the home in 1943, after having fled their first exile in the South of France. During the following years and until the early 1950s, Villa Aurora was the preferred meeting place for German and European exiles in Los Angeles, making it a unique crossroad of European and American culture in the twentieth century. Thomas and Heinrich Mann, Bertolt Brecht, Alfred Döblin, Franz Werfel, Aldous Huxley, Ludwig Marcuse, Kurt Weill, Hanns Eisler, Arnold Schoenberg, Bruno Frank, Fritz Lang, and Charlie Chaplin, were regular guests at Villa Aurora. They and their hosts would gather for readings and musical evenings, celebrations and discussions. After Mr. Feuchtwanger's death, his widow Marta kept his memory and spiritual inheritance alive. When Marta Feuchtwanger passed away in 1987, German journalist and Feuchtwanger biographer, Volker Skierka, organized an initiative to save Villa Aurora from sale into private hands. He had been warned by his American friend and executor of the Feuchtwanger estate, Professor Harold von Hofe, that the Villa Aurora might be sold by the University. Michael Naumann, publisher of German Rowohlt Verlag at the time, journalist Fritz J. Raddatz, and member of the German Parliament, Freimut Duve, were supporters from the very beginning. They were joined in their efforts by numerous public officials and the media in Germany and Los Angeles. The Tagesspiegel Foundation in Berlin took up the cause as well. In 1988 both initiatives merged into Friends of Villa Aurora, Inc. In Los Angeles, the Foundation for European-American Relations came into being, with its Advisory Board, composed of representatives from the arts and letters as well as academic and cultural organizations. With the financial help of the Berlin Lottery Foundation and the German Foreign Office, the Friends of Villa Aurora under the chairmanship of attorney Lothar Poll and later, journalist Marianne Heuwagen-were able to purchase the house from USC in 1990. After extensive renovation under the direction of architect Frank Dimster, the Villa has been restored to its original splendor and has achieved historical landmark status. In 1996 the City of Los Angeles bestowed its Historic Preservation Award of Excellence on the Villa and Mr. Dimster. Twenty-two thousand volumes from Lion Feuchtwanger's extensive personal library are still housed in the Villa; an additional eight thousand books from his library comprise USC's Lion Feuchtwanger Memorial Library. Since 1995 Villa Aurora has been an international meeting place for artists. www.ninafranoszek.com 2 Nina Franoszek Press Reviews - Villa Aurora Foundation for European - American Relations The Villa Aura stands as a monument in remembrance of the past, as well as a space dedicated to contemporary issues of human rights, international cooperation and creative expression. Internationally known German authors Berthold Brecht, Thomas Mann, Franz Werfel, Lion Feuchtwanger, Bruno Frank, Alfred Neumann, Friedrich Torberg, Leonhard Frank, Alfred Döblin, fellow German émigre´s Ernst Gottlieb and Felix Guggenheim all found exile in Los Angeles during World War II. and while there, they participated in a remarkable literary endeavor, that gave testimony to the eminent cultural force that was expelled by Hitler and which found a future in America. As these writers-in exile, Charly Chaplin and many others gathered at the Villa in the early 1940s in the past seven years more than 80 European artists and six writers from Africa and Asia have continued the tradition of living and creating at this house, and engaging with the citizens of Los Angeles. Villa Aurora has become a place where people connect with others to form an artistic and intellectual community. Thousands of guests have met the residents an have attended the public events. The villa has enriched the cultural life of Los Angeles and become an energetic part of it. In spite of the fact that the Villa itself can only accommodate small gatherings, it is through partnership with the finest arts and cultural institutions in Southern California, that Villa Aurora has touched the lives of so many Angelenos. © Volker Corell PARTNERS – PROGRAM CO SPONSORS California Institue of the Arts /School of Music, Department of Germanic Languages at UCLA, Department of Musicology at UCLA, Export Union of the German Cinema, Feuchtwanger Memorial Library at USC, Getty Research Institute, Goethe Institut Inter Nationes Los Angeles, Green Integer / Sun and Moon Press, PEN Center USA West / Freedom- to Write Program, 18th Street Arts Complex Santa Monica, ACE Gallery Los Angeles, American Academy Berlin, American Council on Germany, American Jewish Committee, Arno Schmidt Foundation, Atlantik- Brücke Foundation, Axel Springer Verlag, Consulate General of Austria in Los Angeles, Consulate General of France in Los Angeles, Consulate General of Sweden in Los Angeles, Consulate General of Germany in Los Angeles, DAAD Art Programm Berlin, Directors guild of America, Ernst Toch Society, European Film Academy, FFA (Federal Film Board), Foundation Mittelsten Scheid, Friedrich Ebert Foundation, German American Cultural Society, Heinrich Boell Foundation, Highways Performance Space, Institut Francais Berlin, Institute for the Humanities at USC, Ivri-NASAWI,Japanese American Cultural & Community Center, Knitting Factory, Konrad Adenauer Foundation, KunstSalon Köln, Los Angeles County Museum of Art, Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra, Los Angeles Public Library, MAK Center / Schindler House, Max Kade Institute, MOCA Contemporaries, Motion Picture Association of America, New Mastodon Books and Fine Arts, Pacific Palisades Historical Society, Prinz Medien, Santa Monica Museum of Art, The Claremont Colleges, The Odysee Theater, UCLA Hammer Museum, Victoria Daily Publishing. www.ninafranoszek.com 3 .

  • 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.

  • The House of Wittgenstein: a Family at War Pdf, Epub, Ebook
    THE HOUSE OF WITTGENSTEIN: A FAMILY AT WAR PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Alexander Waugh | 333 pages | 20 Apr 2010 | Random House USA Inc | 9780307278722 | English | New York, United States The House of Wittgenstein: A Family at War PDF Book Paul did not expect his debut to sell out. The book is a family history and is a times a bit slow to read. Waugh has an excellent section on the third suicide in the family — that of Kurt, who shot himself, for reasons that remain a mystery, at the end of the war — but of the remaining members of the family, the three sisters, Hermine, Helene and Gretl, he says comparatively little. When Hitler moved into Austria, he was greeted with cheers and salutes. To see what your friends thought of this book, please sign up. The treatment was the female hormone estrogen. Waugh is While it isn't too easy to sympathize much with a fantastically wealthy family that probably made their fortune from some dealings of a patriarch that if they had gone bad would have landed him a jail, Waugh somehow pulls it off. He left the clinic to die at home. Want to Read Currently Reading Read. And it certainly doesn't do the rest of the Wittgenstein's justice. Depression certainly was a hereditary curse: three of the five sons of Karl and Leopoldine Wittgenstein committed suicide—Hans simply disappeared; Kurt, an officer in the Austrian army, shot himself at the end of the Great War; Rudi theatrically drank potassium cyanide at a cafe, after requesting his favorite song.

  • The German Literature in American Exile – Great Writers and Their Wives: Perspectives from Russian Scholars
    SHS Web of Conferences 55, 04018 (2018) https://doi.org/10.1051/shsconf/20185504018 ICPSE 2018 The German literature in American exile – great writers and their wives: perspectives from Russian scholars Svetlana Averkina1,*, Angelika Kalinina1, and Tatiana Suchareva1 1Linguistics University of Nizhny Novgorod, 603115, 31-a Minina str., Nizhniy Novgorod, Russia Abstract. The article focuses on the life and art of the famous Germane writers, namely Thomas Mann, Lion Feuchtwanger, and Franz Werfel. After the outbreak of WWII, when the Nazi forces invaded these lands, a lot of emigres managed to leave for the USA. For many of them, the escape route was extremely turbulent. The German writers in the USA settled closely together in California, forming a tight community. The famous Germane writers had to decide upon two principal questions: what they could do for the culture of their home country while staying in exile, and how to interact with the culture of the country where they live. In this connection, it is of great importance to analyze not their works, but the books of their wives. They took care of the house and children on a daily basis, as well as became secretaries, councilors, and closest associates of their great husbands. The authors also propose the main perspectives on a future research on this topic, focusing on the social and political phenomenon of “the community of German writers in American exile”, analyzing how the intellectual community was formed, discussing the documents of this age, studying the memories about their time in America in the context of the contemporary gender theory.

  • Images of the Golem in 20Th Century Austrian Literature
    HEIMAT'S SENTRY: IMAGES OF THE GOLEM IN 20TH CENTURY AUSTRIAN LITERATURE A Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Georgetown University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in German By Jason P. Ager, M.A. Washington, DC December 18, 2012 Copyright 2012 by Jason P. Ager All Rights Reserved ii HEIMAT'S SENTRY: IMAGES OF THE GOLEM IN 20TH CENTURY AUSTRIAN LITERATURE Jason P. Ager, M.A. Thesis Advisor: Peter C. Pfeiffer , Ph.D . ABSTRACT In his collection of essays titled Unheimliche Heimat , W.G. Sebald asserts that, "Es ist offenbar immer noch nicht leicht, sich in Österreich zu Hause zu fühlen, insbesondere wenn einem, wie in den letzten Jahren nicht selten, die Unheimlichkeit der Heimat durch das verschiedentliche Auftreten von Wiedergänger und Vergangenheitsgespenstern öfter als lieb ins Bewußtsein gerufen wird" (Sebald 15-16). Sebald's term "Gespenster" may have a quite literal application; it is unheimlich to note, after all, how often the Golem makes unsettling appearances in twentieth-century Austrian-Jewish literature, each time as a protector and guardian of specific communities under threat. These iterations and reinventions of the Golem tradition give credence to Sebald’s description of Heimat as an ambivalent and often conflicted space, even in a relatively homogenous community, because these portrayals of Heimat juxtapose elements of innocence and guilt, safety and threat, logic and irrationality. In the face of the Holocaust's reign of death and annihilation, it seems fitting that Austrian-Jewish writers reanimated a long- standing symbol of strength rooted in religious tradition to counter destruction and find meaning in chaos and unexampled brutality.

  • Villa Aurora and Thomas Mann House in Los Angeles by Kerstin Zilm
    Villa Aurora and Thomas Mann House in Los Angeles by Kerstin Zilm Kerstin Zilm: During the Nazi Regime, German artists, scientists, and other intellectuals found refuge in Southern California. Lion Feuchtwanger and Thomas Mann were two of the more prominent “exiles in paradise.” Their new surroundings reminded them of the Mediterranean while they were constantly thinking about the country, friends, and family they had to leave behind. Exile, transatlantic relationships, and debates about pressing global issues — those themes fill Feuchtwanger’s and Mann’s former homes again today. Take a trip to the Villa Aurora and the Thomas Mann House in Pacific Palisades. Margit Kleinman: Feuchtwanger himself was then under the Vichy government interned in the South of France for about six months, in Les Milles, an internment camp. And she, Marta, was only interned for a couple of weeks in a women’s camp. Kerstin Zilm: Margit Kleinman, director of the Villa Aurora, tells the story about how Lion and Marta Feuchtwanger came to Los Angeles. She leads a spontaneous tour through the maze of rooms, staircases, and hallways, across creaky wooden floors, past black and white pictures, drawings, and busts. About 15 visitors follow her through the last home that the Feuchtwangers created for themselves. Lion died in California in 1958, his wife almost thirty years later, in 1987. Lion Feuchtwanger had been a critic of Adolf Hitler since the 1920s. The Nazis took away his German citizenship and publicly burned his books. The couple first fled to Southern France, which proved to not be safe. Margit Kleinman: ..
