  • The Author's Ethical Responsibility and the Ethics of Reading Jakob
    The Author’s Ethical Responsibility and the Ethics of Reading Jakob Lothe University of Oslo In Thinking Literature across Continents, Ranjan Ghosh, who teaches at the University of North Bengal in India, and J. Hillis Miller, UCI Distinguished Professor Emeritus at the University of California, Irvine, engage in a generative dialogue on a range of important topics in literary studies, including ‘The Matter and Mattering of Literature’ (Part I), ‘Poem and Poetry’ (Part II), ‘Literature and the World’ (Part III), and ‘Teaching Literature’ (Part IV). Inspired by their collaborative, fruitfully dialogical, intervention, and by ‘Ethics and Literature’ (Part V) in particular, this essay will discuss the narrative ethics of two narratives: Olga Horak’s testimony about the Holocaust and W. G. Sebald’s novel Austerlitz [2001]. While Sebald is a well-known and internationally acclaimed author, Horak is a Holocaust survivor whose story, orally transmitted to me in Sydney in 2013, is presented as written text in Time’s Witnesses: Women’s Voices from the Holocaust (Time’s Witnesses: 116–32). Even though these narratives are very different, both are possessed of a strong ethical dimension that not only highlights the authors’ sense of ethical responsibility but also, in a manner at once compelling and demanding, that of the reader. My thesis consists of three linked elements. First, even in narratives as different as these two, one non-fictional and one fictional, the author’s sense of ethical responsibility is closely linked to the reader’s ethical obligation. Second, as an integral part of the reader’s interest in and engagement with the narrative text, this kind of obligation is generated and shaped by the narrative as textual structure: the author’s ethical responsibility is manifested in, and presented through, narrative form (Toker 2010).

    1 Alexander Lorenz Rezension zu Olga Horak: Von Auschwitz nach Australien. Erinnerungen einer Holocaust-Überlebenden an ihre Kindheit in Bratislava, die Deportation nach Auschwitz, den Todesmarsch von Kurzbach nach Dresden und an die Befreiung in Bergen-Belsen. Aus dem Englischen übersetzt von Gudrun Piater, Konstanz: Hartung-Gorre Verlag, Oktober 2007, 130 S., ISBN 3-86628-163-3, EUR 12.80. Im Laufe der Zeit wird es immer dringlicher, die Berichte der Shoa-Überlebenden schriftlich niederzulegen. Die Zeit macht vor den letzten lebenden Erniedrigten nicht halt, die Verbindungen der nachkommenden Generationen zu den Geschehnissen dieser Epoche werden folglich immer schwächer. Nach wie vor sind die Zeugnisse und Berichte der Shoa-Überlebenden eine der wichtigsten Quellen für unsere Kenntnis und für unser Verständnis über eben jenes singuläre Menschheitsverbrechens. Eine solche ist auch das hier liegende Zeugnis von Olga Horak. Olga Horaks Odyssee, geborene Rosenberger, beginnt mit Ausbruch des Zweiten Weltkrieges. Es ist ihr 13. Lebensjahr. Die politische Ausgangssituation in der Slowakei bildet die hlinkafaschistische und antijüdische Regierung Titos, die seit den Jahren 1940/41 auch die »Nürnberger Rassengesetze« in ihrer Justiz verankert hat. Mit der Unterstützung und Direktion Berlins beginnen ab 1941 die ersten Deportationen slowakischer Jüdinnen und Juden in Richtung der Konzentrations- und Vernichtungslager. Die Familie Rosenberg ist in der Landeshauptstadt Bratislava von Anfang an durch die staatlichen Repressionen und der daraus resultierenden Verschlechterung der Lebenssituation betroffen. Olgas Schwester Judith sowie mehrere Cousinen und Cousins sind unter den ersten Jugendlichen, die aus der Slowakei deportiert werden. Unter dem zunehmenden Druck beschließen die Eltern 1942 ins benachbarte Ungarn zu entfliehen. Ein Jahr lang gelingt es ihnen, unerkannt und mit Heft 2 | 2008 © Medaon – www.medaon.de Nachdruck nur mit Genehmigung von Medaon erlaubt 2 Hilfe Bekannter in der Illegalität zu leben und sich in Budapest zu verstecken.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 ONV ivDîinod dO ^ S5H Thesis abstract The subject is the post-communist state, examined through an analysis of the break-up of Czechoslovakia. The thesis argues that the separation was not merely a symptom of the transition, of the multiple stresses afflicting the state, but that it was manufactured by the Czech right as a technocratic partition and sold to the Czech electorate as the cost of continuing reform. The thesis considers the Czech right’s definition of a ‘functioning federation’, its basic insensibility to Slovak national grievances, its roots in neo-liberal conceptions of economic reform, and the impact of this definition in blocking constitutional negotiations. The research charts how Slovak party politics developed in response to this dominating Czech vision of the future state. Persistent, broad-based public opposition to separation is found to have been deflected and neutralised by the under-developed nature of party competition, by the profound weakness of the federal parliament and by the absence of constitutional norms.
