This paper intends to show how and to what extent the practices of postmemory (Hirsch) and “cumulative heroization” (Welzer), which are typical of the so-called generation of grandchildren in Germany, are embedded in Nora Krug’s graphic novel Heimat. Ein deutsches Familienalbum [Heimat. A German Family Album] (2018). It will be shown how these practices contribute to creating a work that in the end idealizes the German and family (Nazi) past rather than coming to terms with it, thus also reiterating a Germano-centric concept of Heimat.
本文旨在展示后记忆(Hirsch)和“累积英雄化”(Welzer)的实践是如何以及在多大程度上嵌入诺拉·克鲁格的平面小说《海马特》中的,这是德国所谓一代孙子的典型。德国家庭专辑〔Heimat.A German Family Album〕(2018)。它将展示这些实践如何有助于创作一部作品,最终将德国人和家庭(纳粹)的过去理想化,而不是接受它,从而也重申了以德国人为中心的Heimat概念。

Theodor Johann Quistorp was among the regular contributors to Gottsched’s Deutsche Schaubühne (1741-1745). In addition to his published works as a playwright, he tried his hand at writing non-fiction, taking a stand against Baumgarten’s theories, and engaging in a heated debate with Georg Friedrich Meier. Quistorp’s comedies are actually based on a conception of the comic effect that is far removed from Gottschedian rationalism. In his Hypochondrist (1745), melancholy and depression are not represented as evil and morally deviant, but as a physiological expression of human nature, which is to be linked to all other aspects of individual identity.
Theodor Johann Quistorp是Gottsched的《Deutsche schaub hne》(1741-1745)的定期撰稿人之一。除了作为剧作家出版作品外,他还尝试过写非虚构作品,反对鲍姆加滕的理论,并与乔治·弗里德里希·迈耶进行了激烈的辩论。基斯托普的喜剧实际上是基于一种喜剧效果的概念,这与戈特谢德式的理性主义相去甚远。在他的《疑病者》(1745)中,忧郁和抑郁并没有被描绘成邪恶和道德上的偏差,而是作为人性的一种生理表现,与个人身份的所有其他方面联系在一起。

This article aims at highlighting the metatextual relationships between the works of Yoko Tawada and Paul Celan. The analysis concentrates on Das Tor des Übersetzers oder Celan liest Japanisch and Paul Celan und der chinesische Engel and is carried out in the light of transtextual practices, starting from theoretical premises related to the act of reading (symptomatic reading – surface reading) and including the dimension of transculturality. The encounter between Tawada and Celan generates a multi-faceted textual space, in which texts from different cultures, having the German language as a common denominator, enter into dialogue with each other.

This study focuses on Musil’s contributions to Heimat, a propaganda newspaper published by the k.u.k. Kriegspressequartier during the last months of World War I. As the authorship of the Heimat articles is controversial, we performed a series of stylometric analyses, which allowed us to attribute ten texts to the Austrian writer. Our approach introduces new elements and data into the debate on authorship, thus opening a productive dialogue between computational, archival and stylistic research.

The Other Side narrates the story of an anachronistic regime built up in Asia with remains of Decadent Europe. Before its collapse, due to the impossibility of existing against history and nature, the narrator concludes: «The demiurge is a hybrid». This paper studies the identity of the demiurge in order to clarify the meaning of this alienating statement. In doing so, it recognizes that the extraordinary regime reflects many features of the Habsburg myth; and also, that as an “experiment of Austria” it needs to take place elsewhere, where the western repressed dreams of power can be fulfilled: in a colony.

This article attempts to explore the intimate yet complicated friendship between Stefan Zweig and Joseph Roth through their exchange of letters. Their personal correspondence has always been regarded as a valuable resource for interpreting their works and for documenting the life of intellectuals during the National Socialist period. However, the relevance of their correspondence does not lie only in its literary and historical testimony, since it is also strictly related to its auto/biographical aspects. Adopting this perspective, the article offers a reading of the letters both as an autobiographical portrait of Zweig and Roth and as a distant narrative of their friendship, conceived as the only possible homeland for the two writers in exile.

In the light of the profound changes that have affected both the political scenario and the political role and forms of engagement of literature over the past thirty years, Monika Maron’s novel Munin oder Chaos im Kopf (2018) seems particularly topical. If analysed through Hannah Arendt’s remarks on the nature of politics and Zygmunt Bauman’s thoughts on our “besieged” society, the narrator’s shocking experience can be seen as both the consequence and the reflection of a failure of our democratic systems, as well as of our traditional idea of politics itself.

This article deals with literary constructions of masculinity in Wolfgang Herrndorf’s novel Tschick. The focus is on male adolescence as represented by the characters in the text. The study is guided by the question of how the male socialisation of adolescents is narrated in the novel. Themes such as the search for identity, friendship, sexuality and being an outsider are addressed. The analysis is based on theoretical perspectives offered by masculinity studies, intersectional approaches of identity research as well as genre-related reflections on young adult fiction.
