Zwiebel ~ / 0.35 H 7 1'1~3 C-~ Introduction: A Shared Enthusiasm This List is born out of a shared enthusiasm for reading and out of a conviction that a love for books is at the heart of both a liberal education and a happy life .. The project took root two years ago in informal conversations after introductory meetings with the faculty shortly after I arriv­ ed at Holy Cross, and it developed gradually - along with other larger and smaller projects, from the new curriculum to expan­ ding the paperback section in the book store - as the conversa­ tions continued. From the beginning, this has never been either a list of the 100 "greatest" classics, or an artificially "balanced" list representing the various academic disciplines, centuries, coun­ tries or literary, philosophical or religious traditions. Yet, we did try to have it reflect, in some ways, the intellec­ tual climate of Holy Cross today: these are books our faculty en­ joy - that they care enough about to recommend and write about, with confidence that the larger Holy Cross community - students, fellow-faculty, parents, alumni and friends - can pick up these books and share in the same discovery. _,Each of us will find in these essays his or her own unifying themes. These struck me: an emphasis on the fundamental classics of Western literature, works which could well give a unifying thread to anyone's education; an emphasis on the search for God as the central task of anyone's life; a commitment to the struggle for a just society. How were the 100 chosen? First each member of the committee drew up a personal 100 list, which we combined and chiseled down to Version One. This we published in the Crusader and circulated to all the faculty for sug­ gested changes. From over 400 titles we settled on about 95, then circulated that list again to a few faculty for more suggestions. Finally, we wrote to various faculty members, and one alumnus­ author, asking for the brief essays. In all, over 75 members of the Holy Cross community have contributed, in one way or another, to the list. I will always remember them with gratitude and I suspect that you, as you read on, will also.

  • WG Sebald and Outsider
    Writing from the Periphery: W. G. Sebald and Outsider Art by Melissa Starr Etzler A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in German and the Designated Emphasis in Film Studies in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Winfried Kudszus, Chair Professor Anton Kaes Professor Anne Nesbet Spring 2014 Abstract Writing from the Periphery: W. G. Sebald and Outsider Art by Melissa Starr Etzler Doctor of Philosophy in German and the Designated Emphasis in Film Studies University of California, Berkeley Professor Winfried Kudszus, Chair This study focuses on a major aspect of literature and culture in the later twentieth century: the intersection of psychiatry, madness and art. As the antipsychiatry movement became an international intervention, W. G. Sebald’s fascination with psychopathology rapidly developed. While Sebald collected many materials on Outsider Artists and has several annotated books on psychiatry in his personal library, I examine how Sebald’s thought and writings, both academic and literary, were particularly influenced by Ernst Herbeck’s poems. Herbeck, a diagnosed schizophrenic, spent decades under the care of Dr. Leo Navratil at the psychiatric institute in Maria Gugging. Sebald became familiar with Herbeck via the book, Schizophrenie und Sprache (1966), in which Navratil analyzed his patients’ creative writings in order to illustrate commonalities between pathological artistic productions and canonical German literature, thereby blurring the lines between genius and madness. In 1980, Sebald travelled to Vienna to meet Ernst Herbeck and this experience inspired him to compose two academic essays on Herbeck and the semi-fictionalized account of their encounter in his novel Vertigo (1990).

  • The Thyroid in Art
    THE THYROID IN ART Luigi Massimino SENA Clinical Pathology Faculty of Medicine University of Turin (Italy) 1 TAKE ART AND PUT IT IN SCIENCE Art and science are different aspects of human creativity. Over the centuries, artists have made use of the expressive power of images to awaken both emotions and empathy, which are often universal. 2 The thyroid gland (tireos, oblong "shield" , but which in reality meant big stone used as a door or for shutting the wooden door: cover, defend with the shield) is located in a part of the human body, i.e., in the neck, making it clearly visible in the throat when enlarged (goiter from Latin guttur). The prevalence of goiter was already known in ancient times, but the writings that described it were almost always devoid of explanatory drawings. The representation of the goiter is illustrated in the numerous depictions of goitrous men, women and children in coins, sculptures, paintings, simple craft objects and even in forms of folklore that involved persons not engaged in the medical art. The depictions were the works of artists living in endemic areas, or of travelers who illustrated the reality they encountered. The size of the goiter has always provoked amazement or fear, feelings that are associated with the mystery surrounding its origin and function. Over the centuries, it has stimulated the imagination of people, while at the same time it has paved the way to understanding the historical relationship between disease and society (pathocoenosis). 3 PATHOCOENOSIS In 1969, Mirko Drazen Grmek (1924-2000) created the neologism pathocenose or pathocoenosis , that is a “community of diseases”: “the collection of pathological states present in a given population in a certain time and space”.

    College of the Holy Cross Mission Statement The College of the Holy Cross is,by tradition and choice,a Jesuit liberal arts college serving the Catholic community, American society, and the wider world. To participate in the life of Holy Cross is to accept an invitation tojoin in dialogue about basic human questions: Whatis the moral character of learning and teaching? How do we find meaning in life and history? What are our obligations to one another? Whatis our special responsibility to the world's poor and powerless? As a liberal arts college,Holy Cross pursues excellence in teaching,learning, and research. All who share its life are challenged to be open to new ideas, to be patient with ambiguity and uncertainty,to combine a passion for truth with respectfor the views of others. Informed by the presence of diverse interpretations of the human experience, Holy Cross seeks to build a community marked by freedom, mutual respect,and civility. Because the search for meaning and value is at the heart of the intellectual life,critical examination offundamental religious and philosophical questions is integral to liberal arts education. Dialogue about these questions among people from diverse academic disciplines and religious traditions requires everyone to acknowledge and respect differences. Dialogue also requires us to remain open to that sense of the whole which calls us to transcend ourselves and challenges us to seek that which might constitute our common humanity. The faculty and staff of Holy Cross,now primarily lay and religiously and culturally diverse, also affirm the mission of Holy CIDSS as a Jesuit college.

  • Vergangenheitsbewältigung and the Danzig Trilogy
    vergangenheitsbewältigung and the danzig trilogy Joseph Schaeffer With the end of the Second World War in 1945, Germany was forced to examine and come to terms with its National Socialist era. It was a particularly difficult task. Many Germans, even those who had suspected the National Socialist crimes, were shocked by the true barbarity of the Nazi regime. Günter Grass, who spent 1945 in an American POW camp listening to the Nurem- berg Trials, was one of those Germans. How could the Holocaust have arisen from the land of poets and philosophers? German authors began to seek the answer to this question immediately following the end of WWII, and this pursuit naturally led to several different genres of German post-war literature. Some authors adopted the style of Kahlschlag (clear cutting), in which precise use of language would free German from the propaganda-laden connotations of Goebbel’s National Socialist Germany. Others spoke of a Stunde Null (Zero Hour), a new beginning without reflec- tion upon the past. These styles are easily recognizable in the works of early post-war authors like Alfred Andersch, Günter Eich, and Wolfgang Borchert. However, it would take ten years before German authors adopted the style of Vergangenheitsbewältigung, an analysis and overcom- ing of Germany’s past.1 In 1961 Walter Jens wrote that only works written after 1952 should be considered part of the genre of German post-war literature (cited in Cunliffe 3). Without a distanced analysis of the Second World War an author would be unable to produce a true work of art.
