This article analyses the ways in which fraternity is imagined in Victor Hugo’s introductory essay to Paris guide (1867) and Danton und Robespierre (1871), by the Austrian poet Robert Hamerling. Both texts use the French Revolution as a pretext to articulate a cosmopolitan vision that has to be understood as a reaction to the political tensions in the prelude to and aftermath of the Franco-Prussian War (1870-71). By reconstructing how Hugo and Hamerling intervene in a broader debate on the question of nationalism and internationalism, this article sheds more light on how literature was a vehicle for cosmopolitan views.

Even though Robert Menasse claims, through the words of his alter ego Roman Gilanian, the protagonist of Sinnliche Gewissheit [Sensual Certainty], that he does not know what to say about the Brazilians, this novel displays a certain portrait of Brazil. As a land of blatant social injustice, of sensuality, hedonism and irrationality, Brazil is at the same time fascinating and repulsive for a novelist who sees it through European eyes. For Menasse, Brazil remains foreign and mysterious, a land full of contradictions and paradoxes that seem to pose a threat to his philosophical concepts. This article highlights three themes that play a key role in the plot of Sinnliche Gewissheit: colonialism, regression and sensuality which, at the same time, challenge the idea of Heimat.

Elfriede Jelinek’s Die Schutzbefohlenen [Charges (The Supplicants)] shows how the fact that those without (acknowledged) rights speak, even though their language is not the language acknowledged by those who are privileged, nonetheless gives them a right to have rights. As a consequence, the privilege is to be doubted, according to which rights would not be universal. This will be explored in the following.

This paper investigates home videos made by Hojda Stojka, the son of Ceija Stojka (1933-2013), artist and survivor of Auschwitz, Ravensbrück, and Bergen-Belsen. Based on a close reading of significant video sequences, a narrative interview with the videographer, and Ceija Stojka’s publications and films, it analyses how the auto/biographical videos relate to the persecution of the parents’ generation. The paper focuses on the importance of spaces like kitchens, cars and stages, on the value assigned to auto/biographical audiovisual recordings, and the recontextualization and integration of photographs and television recordings into the family memory.

The Austrian novelist, essayist and journalist Maria Lazar (1895-1948), only recently rediscovered, who was a contemporary of Thomas Mann and an acquaintance of Bertolt Brecht, wrote many different types of texts. Considered a promising talent back in Vienna, the reception of her works decreased during Lazar’s years in exile. The following contribution aims to reconstruct the dynamics of her marginalization and takes a closer look at the socially critical dimension of No Right to Live and Die Eingeborenen von Maria Blut [The Natives of Maria Blood].

Women play a specific and analogous role in the narrative of Elias Canetti and Thomas Bernhard. Such characters never appear as the only protagonists, but provide a counterpart to male figures, by whom they are often subjugated and marginalized. It is therefore the aim of this article to examine and compare the different ways in which the male characters of Canetti’s Die Blendung and Bernhard’s Das Kalkwerk and Ja dominate and exploit female figures, in an attempt to emphasize similarities and differences in the works of the two authors.
在Elias Canetti和Thomas Bernhard的叙事中，女性扮演着一个特殊而相似的角色。这些角色从来都不是唯一的主角，而是与男性人物相对应的角色，他们经常被男性人物征服和边缘化。因此，本文的目的是考察和比较Canetti的《Die Blendung》和Bernhard的《Das Kalkwerk and Ja》中男性角色支配和利用女性形象的不同方式，试图强调两位作者作品中的异同。

This essay explores one of the films which dealt with the above-mentioned topics and had its cinematic release in the period under discussion – Kassbach, an adaptation of Helmut Zenker’s novel, which was made by Peter Patzak, a prominent Austrian director who passed away in 2021. In this respect, Kassbach would be a work that preceded numerous other Austrian films with a cinematic release in the 1980s and which, even before the Waldheim affair, would touch upon Austria’s difficult past. This article focuses on the film’s message that the lack of de-Nazification at the time, understood not only as a political and bureaucratic, but also as a psychological and social process, facilitates the establishment of right-wing radicalism.
