        Die Rückkehr der Iphigenie und andere Monologe

        by Jannis Ritsos, Asteris Kutulas, Jannis Ritsos, Asteris Kutulas, Ina Kutulas, Asteris Kutulas, Ina Kutulas

        Aus dem facettenreichen Werk des Griechen Jannis Ritsos (1909 – 1990) werden drei Prosamonologe vorgestellt, die sich antiken Stoffen zuwenden und doch nicht historisierend sind. Die Zeiten verschwimmen, wenn die altbekannten Figuren Agamemnon, Iphigenie und Chrysothemis in heutiger Gestalt wiederkehren, von Ereignissen einer zeitlosen Gegenwart sprechen. In Haltung, Gestus und Erleben gleichen sie ganz ihren antiken Vorbildern, und doch zeigen die Antiken-Monologe (entstanden zwischen 1967 und 1972) einen klaren politischen Bezug. Die Maskierung, das Hineinschlüpfen in andere, zumal mythologische Gestalten, war während der Diktatur der Militär-Junta für den Dichter Ritsos die einzige Möglichkeit, Dinge auszusprechen, die er sonst nicht aussprechen zu können glaubte. Die Ausgabe wird durch farbige Zeichnungen auf Stein aus dem bildnerischen Werk Jannis Ritsos' ergänztzt.

        Monovassiá

        Gedichte. Griechisch und deutsch

        by Jannis Ritsos, Klaus-Peter Wedekind, Klaus-Peter Wedekind

        Monovassiá ist ein Zyklus von 36 Gedichten, geschrieben 1974–1977. Nach dem Ende der Diktatur 1974 bekam Jannis Ritsos, neben Kavafis, Seferis und Elytis der bedeutendste griechische Dichter des 20. Jahrhunderts, die volle Bewegungsfreiheit zurück und stattete seinem Kindheitsort Monovassiá – einem Ort von großer symbolischer Bedeutung in der Geschichte Griechenlands, gelegen auf einer Felseninsel an der Westküste des Peloponnes – mehrere Besuche ab. Mit seinen byzantinischen, venezianischen, osmanischen und nationalgriechischen Denkmälern steht Monovassiá exemplarisch für das nachantike Griechenland – und evoziert Ritsos’ Kindheit, die Geschichte seines Lebens. »Über etwas, das man staunend bewundert, kann man sprechen, wenn man Abstand zu ihm hat. Monovassiá ist, was ich auf dem Leib trage – ja, es ist mein Körper, ich existiere im Innern von Monovassiá.«

        La hermandad de la Casa Grande (The brotherhood of the Big House)

        Una novela negra sobre el juicio del Estado a los brujos de Chiloé (A detective novel about the state's trial of the witches of Chiloé)

        by Eduardo Pérez Arroyo

        It's 1879. To the north, Chile defends foreign investment in the Pacific War. To the south, beyond the already invaded Araucania, from a large, almost unexplored island, rumors of violence, superstition and a state incapable of enforcing its law spread. The elite would be at ease if some “elements” that are not occupied at the border with Peru penetrated Chiloé. They need evidence to condemn those criminals who terrorize the population with old indigenous beliefs. They call themselves witches. They are organized as La Recta Provincia or La Hermandad de la Casa Grande. They lie to scare and change the names of the cities on the island –Achao, Dalcahue or Quicaví–, confusing them with others: Buenos Aires, Villarrica, Salamanca. If they were only myths, it would be enough for the government to forget that secret place. But the one who calls himself the Greatest Liar in the World claims to have escaped the sorcerers and travels the north glimpsing the aliens: he talks to them of malice, monsters and murders; of the bloody clans' struggles to become a decaying reign. For these lies, or to secure an unstable national pride, coronels and tenants decide to put an end to things that a mortal has no power to finish.

        Devouring Himself, Starting with His Feet

        by Abdallah Al-Zioud

        Despite its small size, it managed to take its place among the best modern literature books in recent years. From the title and cover, going through its amazing preface and eloquent language, and to the element of surprise and unexpected ending. Abdallah Al-Zioud was able to make the reading journey of this novel a meaningful journey despite its shortness; a journey introduces readers to new terms that manipulate their imaginations and puts them in the eye of the event through a visual language that conveys the reader from paper to the visual world of the novel. It teaches them some of writing tricks and simplifies what seems complicated at the beginning so that the reader believes in its ordinary before discovering that he has fallen victim to fraud.I can say that the most beautiful thing about this novel is that it was not written in a style and did not follow a context. it rebelled against the ordinary, uniquified in style, and combined simplicity and complexity in a way predicting an amazing ability and counted in its writer favor.
