Literature: history & criticismMarch 2010Reading, writing and the influence of Harold Bloom
by Alan Rawes and Jonathon Shears
Reading, writing and the influence of Harold Bloom takes the work of the world's best-known living literary critic and discovers what it is like to read 'with', 'against' and 'beyond' his ideas. The editors, Alan Rawes and Jonathon Shears, introduce the collection by assessing the impact of Bloom's brand of agonistic criticism on literary critics and its ongoing relevance to a discipline attempting to redefine and settle on its collective goals. Firmly grounded in, though not confined to, Bloom's first specialism of Romantic Studies, the volume contains essays that examine Bloom's debts to high Romanticism, his quarrels with feminism, his resistance to historicism, the tensions with the 'Yale School' and his recent work on Shakespeare and genius. Crucially, chapters are also devoted to putting Bloom's anxiety-themed ratios into practice on the poetry of Wordsworth, Shelley, Keats and D. H. Lawrence, amongst others. The Harold Bloom that emerges from this collection is by turns divisive and unifying, marginalised and central, radical and conservative.

Business, Economics & LawApril 2022Youth and the Rural Economy in Africa
Hard Work and Hazard
by James Sumberg, Jordan Chamberlin, Barbara Crossouard, Máiréad Dunne, Justin Flynn, Marjoke Oosterom, Carolina Szyp, Dorte Thorsen, Felix Kwame Yeboah, Thomas Yeboah
This book brings together recent findings from quantitative and qualitative research from across Africa to illuminate how young men and women engage with the rural economy, imagine their futures and how development policies and interventions find traction (or not) with these realities. Through framing, overview and evidence-based chapters, it provides a critical perspective on current discourse, research and development interventions around youth and rural development. It is organised around commonly-made foundational claims: that large numbers of young people are leaving rural areas; have no interest in agriculture; cannot access land; are stuck in permanent waithood; that the rural economy provides (or can provide) a wealth of opportunity; and that they can be the engine of rural transformation. It draws from existing literature and new analysis arising from several multi-country and multi-disciplinary studies, focusing on gender and other aspects of social difference. It is a major contribution to current debates and development policy about youth, agriculture and employment in rural Africa.

June 1984The Jewishness of Mr. Bloom
Englisch/Deutsch
by Wolfgang Hildesheimer
Wolfgang Hildesheimer wurde am 9. Dezember 1916 als Sohn jüdischer Eltern in Hamburg geboren und starb am 21. August 1991 in Poschiavo in der Schweiz. 1933 emigrierte er über England nach Palästina, wo er eine Schreinerlehre absolvierte. 1937 begann er an der Central School of Arts and Crafts (London) Malerei, Textilentwurf und Bühnenbildnerei zu studieren und nahm von London aus am Sommerkurs für Bühnenbild bei Emil Pirchan in Salzburg teil. Anfang 1939 gestaltete er in London am Tavistock Little Theatre sein erstes Bühnenbild. Nach dem Ausbruch des Zweiten Weltkriegs kehrte er nach Palästina zurück, arbeitete als Information Officer, war Englisch-Lehrer am British Institute und leitete zusammen mit einem Freund einige Zeit die Werbeagentur »HW«. Er beteiligte sich an Kunstausstellungen und veröffentlichte einige Gedichte, Essays und Kritiken. 1946 kehrte er nach London zurück, um Bühnenbildner zu werden, wurde aber für die Nürnberger Prozesse engagiert. Im Januar 1947 reiste er nach Nürnberg, dolmetschte für die amerikanische Besatzungsmacht und beteiligte sich wieder an Kunstausstellungen. 1949 zog er nach Ambach am Starnberger See, um als freier Maler und Grafiker zu arbeiten, schrieb im Januar 1950 aber eine Geschichte für Kinder – der Beginn seiner literarischen Karriere. Bereits 1951 wurde er zur Gruppe 47 eingeladen, 1955 erhielt er den Hörspielpreis der Kriegsblinden und im selben Jahr wurde zudem sein erstes Theaterstück von Gustav Gründgens uraufgeführt; ebenfalls in diesem Jahr begann er auch wieder zu malen. Nachdem er 1953 nach München gezogen war, übersiedelte er 1957 nach Poschiavo und widmete sich einer neuen Art von Theaterstücken, deren Besonderheiten er 1960 mit der Rede Über das absurde Theater fundierte. Anlässlich der Internationalen Theaterwoche der Studentenbühnen in Erlangen gehalten, sorgte diese für Aufsehen. Sein Prosabuch Tynset wurde 1966 mit dem Georg-Büchner-Preis und dem Bremer Literaturpreis ausgezeichnet. Sein Bestseller Mozart (1977) beeinflusste das Theaterstück und den Film Amadeus. Seit 1961 beteiligte er sich wieder an Ausstellungen, seit 1965 wurde sein bildkünstlerisches Werk in rund fünfzig Einzelausstellungen gezeigt. 1980 hielt Hildesheimer die Eröffnungsrede der Salzburger Festspiele Was sagt Musik aus. Neben seinen literarischen Werken verfertigte Hildesheimer auch Collagen, die er in mehreren Bänden sammelte. Spektakulär war 1984 seine Ankündigung, angesichts der drohenden Umweltkatastrophe nicht mehr zu schreiben, sondern zur bildenden Kunst zurückzukehren.
