View Rights Portal“Your biggest problem,” shouts a sadistic instructor at a confused group of writers, “is that you’re too mass-market!” The first story in Bighead Horse’s How to Write a Worstseller tells of an unusual workshop whose participants learn how to curb their sales appeal. This book generates from this story and fictionalises a writing contest with prize of 30 million RMB. The stories touch upon a rich range of topics and display a diverse spectrum of styles, while the author is concealed in the elaborated stories and hidden behind the different writer identities. This collection of stories demonstrates the author's command of writing novels in different styles and themes.
1791 revoltierten die Sklaven von Saint Domingue, dem heutigen Haiti, unter Absingen der Marseillaise gegen die französischen Kolonialherren. Die »schwarzen Jakobiner« bewiesen so die Unteilbarkeit der Aufklärung. Diese im Okzident verdrängte Geschichte Haitis wird derzeit angesichts zunehmender weltweiter Ungleichheit wiederentdeckt. Anknüpfungspunkte dafür finden sich ausgerechnet bei Hegel, der die Ereignisse in der Karibik verfolgte. Seine Überlegungen zum Verhältnis von Herrschaft und Knechtschaft lesen sich wie ein Kommentar zum Geschehen – ohne daß Haiti mit einem Wort erwähnt würde. Susan Buck-Morss konfrontiert Hegels Interesse mit seiner Philosophie und skizziert die Grundlinien einer neuen Universalgeschichte.
