August 1988Gedichte für Städtebewohner
Herausgegeben und mit einem Nachwort von Franco Buono
by Bertolt Brecht, Franco Buono, Franco Buono
Seit den Anfängen der Massengesellschaft im 19. Jahrhundert ist sie nicht mehr aus der ›lyrischen‹ Produktion wegzudenken: die Stadt. Vervielfältigung wie Zerstörung menschlicher Beziehungen, Befreiung von (dörflicher) Naturbornierung und Zerstörung natürlicher Bedürfnisse, kurz: Faszination und Grauen sind die Pole dieses genuin ›modernen‹ Motivs. Seine raffiniertesten Versionen verschränken beides: entdecken die Trauer des Berauschenden großer Städte und die Faszination noch ihres Unmenschlichen. Auch Brechts Stadt-Gedichte sind, obwohl gewiß das Trostlose und Unmenschliche akzentuierend, nicht ohne eine solche dialektische Kehrseite. Denn ihre gesellschaftliche Hoffnung wie ihre didaktische Maxime ist, daß »die tiefste Verzweiflung die Bedingung für die Rettung« ist – so Franco Buono, der diese Auswahl zusammengestellt hat. Buonos Nachwort hebt das Besondere von Brechts Stadt-Gedichten hervor und skizziert die Geschichte des Stadt-Motivs in Brechts Werk.

Abstrakte Modelle für die Literaturgeschichte
by Franco Moretti, Florian Kessler, Alberto Piazza
Man könne auch als Literaturwissenschaftler durchaus über Bücher reden, ohne jemals eines gelesen zu haben – mit solch provokanten Thesen bringt Franco Moretti seit Jahren die internationale Literaturtheorie durcheinander. In seinem neuen Buch demonstriert Moretti, der ob seiner innovativen Verve bereits mit Umberto Eco verglichen wird, wie eine »abstrakte Literaturwissenschaft« aussehen könnte: Anstatt sich mit einzelnen kanonischen Texten auseinanderzusetzen, kartographiert er die Landschaft englischer Dorfgeschichten oder erprobt die Anwendbarkeit evolutionstheoretischer Konzepte auf die Entwicklung des Detektivromans.

Literature & Literary StudiesJuly 2023Prueba olímpica (Olympic Trial)
by Lorena Huitrón
"Prueba olímpica" test demystifies what is in front of him. Here prose poems are explored, there are verses that become epigraphs of a following poem, obsessions that open a process that can be endless, wounds that discover, themselves, that it makes sense to mock their existence. Lorena has a natural force that disturbs those who read her, like that bird that murmurs near our ear. This book is inserted in the tradition to modify it.

The ArtsJanuary 2019Spanish cinema 1973–2010
Auteurism, politics, landscape and memory
by Maria M. Delgado, Robin Fiddian
This collection offers a new lens through which to examine Spain's cinema production following the isolation imposed by the Franco regime. The seventeen key films analysed in the volume span a period of 35 years that have been crucial in the development of Spain, Spanish democracy and Spanish cinema. They encompass different genres (horror, thriller, melodrama, social realism, documentary), both popular (Los abrazos rotos/Broken Embraces, Vicky Cristina Barcelona) and more select art house fare (En la ciudad de Sylvia/In the City of Sylvia, El espíritu de la colmena/Spirit of the Beehive) and are made in English (as both first and second language), Basque, Castilian, Catalan and French. Offering an expanded understanding of 'national' cinemas, the volume explores key works by Guillermo del Toro and Lucrecia Martel alongside an examination of the ways in which established auteurs (Almodóvar, José Garci, Carlos Saura) and younger generations of filmmakers (Cesc Gay, Amenábar, Bollaín) have harnessed cinematic language towards a commentary on the nation-state. The result is a bold new study of the ways in which film has created new prisms that have determined how Spain is positioned in the global marketplace.

June 1995Die Kunst, Recht zu behalten
In achtunddreißig Kunstgriffen dargestellt
by Arthur Schopenhauer, Franco Volpi
Organ der natürlichen Boshaftigkeit des Menschen, unverzichtbares Instrument, um Diskussionen erfolgreich zu führen und auf diese Weise dem Hang zur Rechthaberei nachzukommen, mithin der Wille, Recht zu behalten, gleichviel ob man im Recht ist oder nicht - dies und nichts anderes ist für Schopenhauer Dialektik.

The ArtsJune 2021The war that won't die
The Spanish Civil War in cinema
by David Archibald
The war that won't die charts the changing nature of cinematic depictions of the Spanish Civil War. In 1936, a significant number of artists, filmmakers and writers - from George Orwell and Pablo Picasso to Joris Ivens and Joan Miró - rallied to support the country's democratically-elected Republican government. The arts have played an important role in shaping popular understandings of the Spanish Civil War and this book examines the specific role cinema has played in this process. The book's focus is on fictional feature films produced within Spain and beyond its borders between the 1940s and the early years of the twenty-first century - including Hollywood blockbusters, East European films, the work of the avant garde in Paris and films produced under Franco's censorial dictatorship. The book will appeal to scholars and students of Film, Media and Hispanic Studies, but also to historians and, indeed, anyone interested in why the Spanish Civil War remains such a contested political topic.
