        Theorien und Dinge

        by Willard Van Orman Quine, Joachim Schulte

        Quine vermag uns zu überraschen. Nicht nur, weil er die sonst vielfach trocken wirkenden Probleme von Sprachphilosophie und philosophischer Logik mit anschaulichen Formulierungen, treffenden Beispielen und verblüffenden Bildern lebendig zu machen versteht, sondern weil er überdies imstande ist, längst gesichert und abgetan geglaubten Themen neue Fragen und vor allem unvorhergesehene Antworten abzugewinnen. Neben Erörterungen technischlogischer Begründungsfragen, bei denen Quines mustergültige Klarheit und sein Verzicht auf einschüchterndes Brimborium erfrischend zu unvermuteten Einsichten verhelfen, finden sich in diesen Abhandlungen Auseinandersetzungen mit der Geschichte der Philosophie, namentlich des Empirismus, sowie kritische Darstellungen der Gedankenwelt Russells, Austins, Smarts, Goodmans, Gödels und Lewis Carrolls. Gleichsam nebenbei, doch nie als Nebensache, werden prinzipielle Probleme behandelt, etwa die Kontextabhängigkeit philosophischer Fragestellungen, und es werden ausgefallene Aspekte allgemeiner Begriffe deutlich gemacht, etwa die Rolle von Metaphern bei der Entwicklung wissenschaftlich fruchtbarer Ideen.

        Pastoral Song

        by Dong Hongyou

        This book tells the story of a youth choir in Wuhan during the founding era of New China. The novel could be seen as a "musical novel" for citing many famous Chinese and foreign songs. Just like in Vladimir Korolenko's novel The Blind Musician, where the melodious flute sound of the old groom Joachim has been guiding the growth of the five-year-old blind child, the songs in this book that were created in different eras also play a role as the "spiritual nourishment" for the teenager Jiangnan and his partners in his childhood, leading them to grow from narrow-minded, hesitant, and fragile to broad, firm, and strong.   In this novel, apart from the fact that music forms a great part, it also has another prominent feature, which is the regional culture and folk customs of old Wuhan city. The loud and strong chanting on the pier of the Yangtze River, the mighty sound of the surging river, the melodious bells of Hankow Customs House, the vendor's hawking in the alleys of the old Hankou, as well as various customs, snacks, and dialects, all of which help create a vivid painting of local customs that presents lively daily life and the wharf culture.

        Vertraute Dinge, fremde Dinge

        Essays

        by Teju Cole, Uda Strätling

        Teju Cole betrachtet Kunst, wie er die Welt betrachtet: mit dem Blick eines unsystematischen Historikers, der zunächst beobachtet, beschreibt, das Offensichtliche in den Blick nimmt, um zu dem weniger Sichtbaren vorzudringen, das darunterliegt. Seine Essays handeln von der Erfahrung des Unterwegsseins und von politischer Moral, von Rassismus und davon, warum auch ein Präsident, der die »richtigen« Bücher liest, in seinem Amt Menschen tötet. Und er schreibt über das, was ihn geistig nährt: über Baldwin, Sebald und Tranströmer; über Brasilien, Italien, Palästina; über die Ästhetik westafrikanischer Auftragsfotografie und über Instagram. In bereichernden, betörenden und originellen Essays offenbart Teju Cole den Reichtum seiner Interessen. Immer wieder zieht er erhellende Verbindungen, von der konkreten Gegenwart zur Dichtung, von der Geschichte zur Kunst. Vertraute Dinge, fremde Dinge wird zu einer Schule des Sehens.

        Buch der Dinge

        Gedichte

        by Aleš Šteger, Urška P. Cerne, Matthias Göritz, Matthias Göritz

        »Nicht für jedes Ding gibt es ein Wort«, vermeldet das Große Wörterbuch der slowenischen Sprache. Aleš Šteger, als Reisender in vielen Sprachen und Ländern zu Hause, Autor mehrerer Gedichtbände und einer Reiseprosa über Peru und César Vallejo, stellt diese Einsicht seinem neuen Lyrikband als Motto voran. Doch es fehlt nicht nur an Worten. Wie seine streng gebauten, leichtfüßigen Texte, 50 Gedichte, zeigen, haben wir schon das Selbstverständliche nie richtig kennengelernt: Büroklammer, Seife, Zahnstocher (»dieser kleine Robespierre im Maul des Polyphem «), Regenschirm, Hut und Fußmatte. In Štegers Gedichten werden sie aufgerufen und treten uns, dem Allgemeinbegriff entschlüpft, entgegen; sie stellen Fragen, die zu groß sind für so kleine Dinge. Unklare, sich verwandelnde Seinsformen wie Ei, Wurst und Schokolade machen stutzig. Das Brot offenbart seinen sadomasochistischen Charakter: »Ja, ja, es liebt dich, deshalb nimmt es jetzt dein Messer in sich auf. / Es weiß, daß sich all seine Wunden in deiner Hand verkrümeln. « – Nicht zur Benennung der Dinge fehlen uns die Worte, sondern für die Antworten, die wir ihnen schuldig sind.
