        Imagining Caribbean womanhood

        Race, nation and beauty competitions, 1929–70

        by Pamela Sharpe, Rochelle Rowe, Penny Summerfield, Lynn Abrams, Cordelia Beattie

        Over fifty years after Jamaican and Trinidadian independence, Imagining Caribbean womanhood examines the links between beauty and politics in the Anglophone Caribbean, providing a first cultural history of Caribbean beauty competitions, spanning from Kingston to London. It traces the origins and transformation of female beauty contests in the British Caribbean from 1929 to 1970, through the development of cultural nationalism, race-conscious politics and decolonisation. The beauty contest, a seemingly marginal phenomenon, is used to illuminate the persistence of racial supremacy, the advance of consumer culture and the negotiation of race and nation through the idealised performance of cultured, modern beauty. Modern Caribbean femininity was intended to be politically functional but also commercially viable and subtly eroticised.

        Eine Monstretragödie

        by Frank Wedekind

        Es handelt sich um die 1894 fertiggestellte Urfassung der Lulu-Tragödie. Sie besteht aus fünf Akten, die später, aus Zensur- und anderen Gründen mehrfach umgearbeitet, auf die beiden Stücke »Erdgeist« und »Die Büchse der Pandora« verteilt wurden. Der Text wurde zum ersten Mal 1988 im Zusammenhang mit der Uraufführung durch Peter Zadek am Deutschen Schauspielhaus in Hamburg veröffentlicht. »Eine Nachtwandlerin der Liebe, die erst ›fällt‹, wenn sie angerufen wird, ewige Verliererin – von der ein philosophischer Strolch im Drama sagt: ›Die kann von der Liebe nicht leben, weil ihr Leben die Liebe ist.‹ Daß der Freudenquell in dieser engen Welt zur Pandora-Büchse werden muß: diesem unendlichen Bedauern scheint mir die Dichtung zu entstammen«, sagte und schrieb Karl Kraus 1905 zu der von ihm organisierten Uraufführung des zweiten Teils in einer einmaligen, geschlossenen Vorstellung in Wien.
