        Endlose Nacht

        Träume im Jahrhundert der Gewalt

        by Barbara Hahn

        Mithilfe von Träumen skizziert Barbara Hahns großer Essay eine Unheilsgeschichte des 20. Jahrhunderts. Ihre Untersuchung widmet sich Träumen, die eine Welt aus Verfolgung, Not, Zwang und Leiden erschreckend direkt vorwegnehmen, schildern, in Bilder fassen. Sowie Berichten von Überlebenden, die in einer dauerhaft beschädigten Realität weiterexistieren – denen Wirklichkeit nur mehr ein Schatten ist – die nur in den Träumen toter Anderer sich noch ‚am Leben‘ wähnen. Im 20. Jahrhundert haben sich Traumaufzeichnungen als eine eigene literarische Gattung etabliert – durch eine Fülle (oft entlegener) Veröffentlichungen. Nachforschend, aufstöbernd, einkreisend, ebenso sorgsam wie behende führt die Autorin durch diesen bislang wenig erschlossenen Kosmos. Es treten Anna Achmatowa, Theodor W. Adorno, Walter Benjamin, Charlotte Beradt, Jean Cayrol, Hélène Cixous, Franz Fühmann, Graham Greene, Wieland Herzfelde, Otto Dov Kulka, Primo Levi, Paula Ludwig, Elsa Morante, Heiner Müller, Georges Perec, Jorge Semprún, Vercors, Marguerite Yourcenar und viele andere auf.

        Negotiating the auteur

        Dominique Cabrera, Noémie Lvovsky, Laetitia Masson and Marion Vernoux

        by Julia Dobson

        This book provides the first detailed analysis of the work of four important contemporary directors whose work falls between the reductive labels of 'auteur cinema' and 'popular cinema'. Their work is contextualised within this timely investigation into the shifting relationship between the privileged status of the auteur and questions of genre, gender and cinematic production in France today. This important contribution to understanding the shifting landscapes of contemporary French film identifies an essential intermediacy in the films of these directors, which works to undo a series of dominant oppositions, generic template and contestation, public collectivity and personal intimacy, to offer a new perspective on the location of the political in contemporary French cinema. The four chapters provide detailed critical analysis of films by Dominique Cabrera, Laetitia Masson, Noémie Lvovsky and Marion Vernoux, and present common thread including the possible construction of social intimacy, the political demystification of romance narratives and the role of nostalgia, to argue that their work uses popular genres in order to challenge dominant cultural representation that resonates beyond the immediate parameters of contemporary French cinema. This book will be of interest to researchers working in French and European cinema, to students of Film Studies and French and Francophone Studies, and to film enthusiasts.

        Selbstverteidigung

        Eine Philosophie der Gewalt

        by Elsa Dorlin, Andrea Hemminger

        Vom Sklavenwiderstand bis zum Jiu-Jitsu der Suffragetten, vom Aufstand im Warschauer Ghetto bis zu den Black Panther und den Queer-Patrouillen zeichnet Elsa Dorlin in ihrem preisgekrönten Buch eine Genealogie der politischen Selbstverteidigung nach. Diese Geschichte der Gewalt wirft ein neues Licht auf die Definition der modernen Subjektivität und die zeitgenössische Sicherheitspolitik. Sie führt zu einer Neuinterpretation der politischen Philosophie, in deren Rahmen Hobbes und Locke mit Frantz Fanon, Michel Foucault, Malcolm X, June Jordan und Judith Butler in ein faszinierendes Streitgespräch geraten.

        Italian women writing

        by Sharon Wood

        How has it happened that from being politely ignored or marginalized just half a century ago, women writers in Italy are now at the centre of literary activity? To what extent does writing by women reflect the successes and failures of Italy in the post-war period? What form did the feminist movement in Italy take, and how did this affect what - and how - women wrote? And how are women who write responding to a more fragmented post-modern age? These are just some of the questions asked of the relationship between women and fiction in post-war Italy in this anthology. It includes stories by Cialente, Ginzburg, Ortese, Morante, Romano, Maraini and Duranti as well as Bompiani, Sanvitale, Mizzau, Scaramuzzino, Capriolo and Petrignani. The thirteen stories presented offer a range of style and content indicative of the wealth and diversity of writing by women, and their reading is supported by critical notes and an extensive vocabulary. This is a clear and challenging introduction to the rich field of women and fiction in Italy. ;
