Embodying Masculinities Towards a History of the Male Body in U.S. Culture and Literature
T
New York, 2013 . VI, 187 pp .
he body remains the most visibly gendered social and cultural construction . Not only does it classify individuals into two different sexes from the very start of their lives, but some of the most obvious social divisions – such as race and nationality, age and physical appearance, religion, or class – are also written on the body . Although most studies have focused on women’s bodies, the present volume seeks to explore both the construction and deconstruction of the male body in and through U .S . culture and literature from the early twentieth century up to the present . In so doing, this book illustrates not only the changing nature of the male body but also its recurrent use as a political weapon throughout U .S . cultural and literary history . Embodying Masculinities sketches the first history of the male body in modern U .S . culture and literature . The book will be of interest to scholars in the fields of gender and masculinity studies as well as those in American studies .

Women in Nabokov’s Life and Art
D
espite the considerable amount of criticism that Vladimir Nabokov’s literary legacy has produced since the sixties, the studies on his female characters are scarce, except the ones on Lolita . This volume delves into Nabokov’s women from different perspectives and points of view . The contributions are from different parts of the world, some from prominent scholars . These Nabokovians study the gender issue in Nabokov’s life and art, paying tribute to his women . The volume has two closely connected parts . In the first one, the reader can find biographical essays that discuss the role of the real women in Nabokov’s life and how their love, support and suffering are reflected in his prose . The second part deals with Nabokov’s women in his fiction . There is a discussion of the representation of female voices .

The Irish Short Story Traditions and Trends
O
ften hailed as a ‘national genre’, the short story has a long and distinguished tradition in Ireland and continues to fascinate readers and writers alike . Critical appreciation of the Irish short story, however, has laboured for too long under the normative conception of it as a realist form, used to depict quintessential truths about Ireland and Irish identity . This definition fails to do justice to the richness and variety of short stories published in Ireland since the 1850s . This collection aims to open up the critical debate on the Irish short story to the many different concerns, influences and innovations by which it has been formed . The essays gathered here consider the diverse national and international influences on the Irish short story and investigate its genealogy . They recover the short fiction of writers neglected in previous literary histories and highlight unexpected strands in the work of established writers . They scrutinize established traditions and use cutting-edge critical frameworks to discern new trends . Taken together, the essays contribute to a more encompassing and enabling view of the Irish short story as a hybrid, multivalent and highly flexible literary form, which is forever being reshaped to meet new insights, new influences and new realities .

Yellow Fever Years An Epidemiology of Nineteenth-Century American Literature and Culture
E
xploring the nexus of American Studies and the Medical Humanities, this book examines the interdisciplinary interfaces between disease and American cultures and literatures . It traces the appropriation of yellow fever to legitimize the young nation and its embeddedness in discourses of race and gender from the late 18th until the end of the 19th century . Previously untapped textual and visual archives provide a heterogeneous base of canonical as well as previously disregarded works that are analyzed for yellow fever’s metaphorical and actual potential of risk and crisis . As a literary history of yellow fever epidemics, it firmly establishes the ideological, socio-political, visual, and cultural processing of the disease, which figures as invasive, inexplicable Other .

John Harvey
The Poetics of Sight
«
Ut pictura poesis», Horace said, but through the two millennia in which «the sister arts» have been compared, little has been said about the nature of sight itself . What we see in «our mind’s eye» as we read has not been explored, though by following the visual prompts in texts, one can anatomize the process of visualization . The Poetics of Sight analyses the role of sight in memory, dream and popular culture and demonstrates the structure of a complex sight within the metaphors of Shakespeare, Pope and Dickens; and within the visual metaphors of Picasso, Magritte and Bacon . This book explores the difference between the great and the failed works of the supreme poetpainter, William Blake, and tracks the migrations of the Satiric muse between verbal mockery and scabrous images in Persius, Pope, Gillray and Gogol . It records the rise, and partial decline, of the vividly «seen» novel in Dickens, Flaubert, Tolstoy, Proust and Hardy . The key concept throughout this book is visual metaphor, which in the twentieth century acquired overarching importance: in art from Picasso to Kapoor, in poetry from Eliot to Hughes, in aesthetics from Pound to Derrida . The book closes with a far-reaching definition of visual metaphor and with the great visual metaphor of the human body .

«I particularly liked Harvey’s ability to argue his case in lucid, elegant prose […] and there’s his usual mastery of prose rhythm and the well-turned sentence to express his argument with considered authority. His scholarship is judiciously deployed. […] I commend this book: it’ll change the way you read.» (Simon Lavery, Tredynas Days, 1 June 2015)

Playing Games of Sense in Edwin Morgan’s Writing
M
onika Kocot’s book on Edwin Morgan’s literary achievement, both poetry and drama, foregrounds the themes of cultural transgression, dialogism of the author’s creative design, and various, potentially subversive games of sense creation: «verbivocovisual» constellations, mythopoetic «writings-through» and intersemiotic translations . «Edwin Morgan’s unparalleled poetic inventiveness finds its equivalent in Monika Kocot’s similarly inventive critical and analytical work, which makes this book such a pleasure to read. Her interpretations of Morgan’s poetry are always sharp-eyed, precise and highly sovereign. Kocot may use her knowledge of contemporary theory very generously, but poetry is always at the centre of her critical attention. I can only welcome this eloquent study of one of Scotland’s greatest poets coming from one of the most gifted young Polish scholars.» (Jerzy Jarniewicz, University of Lodz) Frankfurt am Main, 2016 . 218 pp ., 3 b/w fig .

«Monika Kocot’s wonderful study of Edwin Morgan’s work is timely and most welcome, coming just a few years after the poet’s death. Impressive in its scholarship, it succeeds in getting to the heart of Morgan’s work, its irrepressible spirit, its sense of play. It casts light on Morgan the mercurial, the trickster, the antisage, endlessly inventive, pushing linguistic boundaries, yet humane, accessible. It’s good too to see Morgan’s plays given their due alongside the poetry. Like their subject matter, the author carries her scholarship lightly and writes with a discerning eye and ear. I think Morgan himself would be delighted by this study, and I can think of no higher praise than that. Message Clear.» (Alan Spence, Professor Emeritus, University of Aberdeen)

Taking black feminist literary criticism as the subject of inquiry, the book focuses on the field’s recent theoretical contributions to literary productions and their impact on other fields .

s well as a highly respected poet and editor, Mick Imlah (1956–2009) was one of the finest literary critics of his generation . He spent most of his twenty-five-year career working for the Times Literary Supplement, reinterpreting familiar writers from Tennyson and Trollope to Larkin and Muldoon, and – as his interest in his Scottish background grew – elucidating those fallen from favour, such as Barrie, Buchan, Muir and Scott . With a preface by Mark Ford, this volume draws together a selection of Imlah’s essays that reveal the formidable breadth of his unique literary insight, and the flair with which he communicated it . The volume also encompasses some of his pieces on miscellaneous subjects such as sport and travel, as well as on his own poetry, in order to provide a rounded sense of Imlah the man and writer . Mick Imlah was born in 1956 and educated at Magdalen College, Oxford, where he taught as a Junior Fellow . He was editor of Poetry Review from 1983 to 1986, Chatto and Windus poetry editor from 1989 to 1993, and worked at the Times Literary Supplement for many years until his death in 2009 . His second collection of poetry, The Lost Leader, won the Forward Prize in 2008 . «Mick Imlah is one of the most original and memorable English-language poets of the late twentieth century – a brilliant talent, brutally curtailed. This volume is a necessary companion to his poems, and full of insights that are fascinating in their own right.» (Sir Andrew Motion, Poet Laureate 1999–2009) «Mick Imlah was not only a meticulous and resourceful reviewer, but he possessed the deep creative perspective of the true poet-critic. His admirers will want this volume.» (John Fuller, poet and Fellow Emeritus at Magdalen College, Oxford)

violência e a sua representação artística têm sido desde sempre objecto de vibrantes debates . Na criação contemporânea, a violência continua a ser um dos mais insistentes refrãos temáticos . Analisa-se aqui um corpus seleccionado da dramaturgia britânica de matriz realista do pós-Segunda Guerra Mundial, incluindo textos de John Whiting (Saints’s Day, 1951), Brendan Behan (The Quare Fellow, 1954), John Osborne (Look Back in Anger, 1956), Harold Pinter (The Birthday Party, 1958), Arnold Wesker (Chicken Soup with Barley, 1958; Roots, 1959; e I’m Talking about Jerusalem, 1960), John Arden (Serjeant Musgrave’s Dance, 1959), David Rudkin (Afore Night Come, 1962), Giles Cooper (Everything in the Garden, 1962), Edward Bond (Saved, 1965) e Charles Wood (Dingo, 1967) . São textos reportados a uma geração de dramaturges conhecidos como «Angry Young Men» e a uma Segunda Vaga de dramaturges dos anos sessenta que reagem às alterações na geometria política e social motivadas pela Segunda Guerra Mundial . Na análise a que se procede é estudada a maneira como cada obra configura as representações de violência, de que resultou a diferenciação nas seguintes tipologias: violência sistémica; sobre o corpo; verbal; e de guerra .

Shockwaves of Possibility Essays on Science Fiction, Globalization, and Utopia
S
hockwaves of Possibility explores the deep utopianism of one of the most significant modern cultural practices: science fiction . The author contends that utopianism is not simply a motif in SF, but rather is fundamental to its narrative dynamics . Drawing upon a rich array of theory and criticism in SF and utopian studies, the book opens with a global periodizing history that shows the inseparability of SF from developments in other cultural fields . It goes on to examine literature, film, television, comics, and animation in order to demonstrate SF’s unique effectiveness for grappling with the upheavals brought about by globalization . Shockwaves of Possibility proves SF’s vitality in the brave new world of the twenty-first century, as it illuminates the contours of the present and educates our desire for a radically other future . CONTENTS: The Modernisms of Science Fiction: Toward a Periodizing History • If Everything Means Something Else: Technology, Allegory, and Events in Roadside Picnic and Stalker • After the End of the World: Pseudo-Apocalypse and Universal History in Paradise and The Windup Girl • Recognizing the Patterns • Part Two: Possible Worlds • The Beat Cops of History: Or, The Paranoid Style in American Intellectual Politics • Popular Dystopias in an Era of Global War • Alan Moore, «Secondary Literacy», and the Modernism of the Graphic Novel • Ken MacLeod’s Permanent Revolution: Utopian Possible Worlds, History, and the Augenblick in the «Fall Revolution» • Alternate Histories, Periodization, and the Geopolitical Aesthetics of Ken MacLeod and Iain M . Banks • Learning to Live in History: Alternate Historicities and the 1990s in The Years of Rice and Salt • «An Unfinished Project that was Also a Missed Opportunity»: Utopia and Alternate History in Hayao Miyazaki’s My Neighbor Totoro . «‘Shockwaves of Possibility’ is a passionate assertion of science fiction’s necessary relationship to utopian thinking. Engaging a range of media, Wegner makes a compelling case for understanding SF, via Alain Badiou, as an «evental genre.» Following Žižek, who contends that to repeat Lenin is to accept that although Lenin’s solution failed it sparked possibilities for new futures, ‘Shockwaves of Possibility’ repeats SF. Wegner shows us how SF can re-educate our desire and demonstrate – contra neoliberal rhetoric or cynical exhaustion – that options for another kind of world endure. Attentive to theme and form, Wegner looks beyond current portents of the end of the world and focuses our desire on the end of a world – the unquestioned hegemony of global capitalism.» (Sherryl Vint, Professor of Science Fiction Media Studies, University of California, Riverside)

his book focuses on contemporary Nevada fiction as one of the most probing and intense literary explorations of the American West as a whole . Recent fictional representations of Nevada possess a revelatory value in relation to the whole West because they encompass some of the most common thematic trends in contemporary western writing . Actually, the thematic maturation of Nevada fiction over the last four decades often parallels the evolution of postfrontier writing, in particular, its growing departure from the overused topics and images of the formula western . Nevada fiction also possesses some unique and distinctive themes, such as its depiction of Basque immigrants, its emphasis on nuclear testing and nuclear waste, and its portrait of such peculiar cities as Reno and Las Vegas . This study discusses contemporary writing set in Nevada both by Nevadans (Robert Laxalt, Frank Bergon, Willy Vlautin, Phyllis Barber, Claire Vaye Watkins…) and by non-resident authors (Joan Didion, Hunter S . Thompson, Larry McMurtry…), drawing new attention to a remarkable literature that has been too often neglected in discussions of the American West . «I am impressed by David Rio’s command of the field of Nevada literature and of Western American literature and theory more broadly. As the first book-length study of Nevada fiction, this book is important and all the more so for situating its topic amidst larger trends in New Western writing. The book will be a valuable milestone in Nevada’s literary coming of age.» (Cheryll Glotfelty, editor of Literary Nevada: Writings from the Silver State)

s the history of British colonialism recedes and a new phase of global integration intensifies, the critical tools of postcolonialism become less useful in reading South Asian diasporic fiction in Britain . A Passage to Globalism: Globalization, Identities, and South Asian Diasporic Fiction in Britain responds to the need for a critical framework that is able to address the relationships between identities and contemporary globality . It examines the politics of representation that are involved in positioning and categorizing South Asian diasporic fiction within such a world and asks questions of who and what are represented and how and to whom in selected works of South Asian diasporic fiction . A secondary aim of A Passage to Globalism addresses how South Asian diasporic fiction might extend and qualify theoretical explanations of globalization . This book asks what role does South Asian diasporic fiction play in constructing narratives of globalization? And how does literary analysis help us understand how «stories» of globalization are told? Testing and extending the utility of concepts from both Marxist and liberal explanations of globalization in this way, it argues for an integrated theoretical approach to a set of texts that operate at the complex intersection between Britain’s colonial past and the complexity of contemporary globality as well as across local, national, and transnational literary contexts .

inda Wagner-Martin’s study of African American writer Toni Morrison’s work, beginning with The Bluest Eye in 1970 and continuing through her 2012 novel Home, describes Morrison as an inherently original novelist who was shaped throughout her career by her role within families . Morrison speaks of herself, compellingly and frequently, as daughter, sister, wife, mother, mentor, and friend . The energy from playing these roles in her life helped to lead to her thoroughly distinctive fiction . The book charts Morrison’s changing vision as well . Morrison’s deeper and deeper involvement in the history of African Americans within the United States leads to her study of the urban in Jazz, of the allblack Western towns in Paradise, of the upper-middle class in Love, as well as her poignant study of the returning Korean War veteran in Home. Morrison’s 2008 A Mercy, set in the seventeenth century, reprises much of the power of the prize-winning Beloved and returns readers to the quintessential theme of parent-child relationships . In Morrison’s fictional world, drawing from the human and spiritual forces in both Africa and the United States provides some hope of a truly satisfying existence .

Seven Essays
George Herbert and Post-phenomenology
Studies in Literature, Drama, and Film In Seven Essays: Studies in Literature, Drama, and Film, Abdulla Al-Dabbagh’s unique approach to literary and cultural issues succeeds in casting new light on these subjects, revealing innovative fields of research and investigation . Expressed in his usual lucid and eloquent style, this collection of essays deals with themes and topics raised in Al-Dabbagh’s first two books, Literary Orientalism, Postcolonialism, and Universalism (Lang, 2010) and Shakespeare, the Orient, and the Critics (Lang, 2010) . These essays also embrace further exploration in the area of literary criticism and literary theory and venture into the area of fi lm studies . Whether discussing the drama of Shakespeare and Ibsen, Kurdish cinema, or issues of contemporary literary criticism and theory, scholars will find Al-Dabbagh’s fresh compilation of literary studies an essential contribution to the field .
Dramatic Minds
A Gift for Our Times
Performance, Cognition, and the Representation of Interiority
This reading of George Herbert’s poetry takes advantage of contemporary philosophical reflection on the givenness of being and of language . The book presents George Herbert’s poetic sequence, The Temple, as the poet’s response to a call which originates in the Word made flesh and at the same time resounds within the depths of an individual self . The focus of this analysis falls on the essential «Englishness» of Herbert’s poetry and its material weight: its visual concreteness, its musical harmonies, and its attention to human flesh made (English) word .

This volume seeks to put drama and its neglected mental dimension into the limelight . While narrative fiction with its intricate ways of rendering consciousness has been deemed an ideal playground for approaches of a cognitivist leaning, the dramatic genre has been all but ignored by cognitive literary studies . Providing insights into such drama-related issues as subject construction, interiority, performativity, empathy, reader manipulation and reception control, the contributions to this collection testify to the richness and variety of the cognitivist enterprise .

The Rise of Bardolatry in the Restoration
Shakespeare’s Tragedies Reviewed
Wonderlands
Paratexts of Shakespearean Adaptations and other Texts 1660–1737
A Spectator’s Role
This book explores from a new perspective the adaptations of Shakespeare in the Restoration, and how they contributed to the rise of the cult of the National Poet in an age where his reputation was not yet consolidated . Adaptations are fully independent cultural items, whose paratexts play a crucial role in the development of Bardolatry; their study initially follows seminal works of Bakhtin and Genette, but the main theoretical background is anthropology, with the groundbreaking theories of Mary Douglas . The many voices that feature the paratexts of the adaptations and the other texts, such as those of John Dryden, Thomas Betterton, William Davenant, Nahum Tate, John Dennis, and many others, create a composite choir where the emerging sacrality of the cult of the Bard was just one of the tunes, in an age when Shakespeare has not yet become Shakespeare .
Shakespeare’s Tragedies Reviewed explores how the recognition of spectator interests by the playwright has determined the detailed character of Shakespeare tragedies . Utilizing Shakespeare’s European models and contemporaries, including Cinthio and Lope de Vega, and following forms such as Aristotle’s second, more popular style of tragedy (a double ending of punishment for the evil and honor for the good), Hugh Macrae Richmond elicits radical revision of traditional interpretations of the scripts . The analysis includes a major shift in emphasis from conventionally tragic concerns to a more varied blend of tones, characterizations, and situations, designed to hold spectator interest rather than to meet neoclassical standards of coherence, focus, and progression . This reinterpretation also bears on modern staging and directorial emphasis, challenging the relevance of traditional norms of tragedy to production of Renaissance drama . The stress shifts to plays’ counter-movements to tragic tones, and to scripts’ contrasting positive factors to common downbeat interpretations – such as the role of humor in King Lear and the significance of residual leadership in the tragedies as seen in the roles of Malcolm, Edgar, Cassio, and Octavius, as well as the broader progressions in such continuities as those within Shakespeare’s Roman world from Julius Caesar and Antony and Cleopatra to Cymbeline. It becomes apparent that the authority of the spectator in such Shakespearean titles as What You Will and As You Like It may bear meaningfully on interpretation of more plays than just the comedies .
The Last Romances of William Morris William Morris’s last romances are strikingly original stories written in his final years, but they remain relatively neglected in both Morris studies and nineteenth-century literary studies . This book provides a full-length critical account of these works and their essential role in promoting the continuing importance of Morris’s ideas . Approaching these romances through the concept of wonder, this book provides a new way of understanding their relevance to his writings on art and architecture, nature and the environment, and politics and Socialism . It establishes the integral connection between the romances and Morris’s diverse cultural, social and political interests and activities, suggesting ways in which we might understand these tales as a culmination of Morris’s thought and practice . Through a comprehensive analysis of these remarkable narratives, this book makes a significant contribution to both work on William Morris and to nineteenth-century studies more generally .

George Moore’s Paris and his Ongoing French Connections The formative influences of Paris and France on the Anglo-Irish writer George Moore (1852– 1933) cannot be underestimated . While the years Moore spent in Paris in the 1870s were seminal for his artistic awakening and development, the associations and friendships he formed in French literary and artistic circles exerted an enduring influence on his creative career . Moore maintained close ties with France throughout his life and his numerous contacts extended to social, musical and cultural spheres . He introduced the Impressionists to a British audience and his importation of French literary innovation into the English novel was remarkable . Exploring Moore’s early years in Paris and his ongoing engagement with the experimental modernity of his French models, these essays offer new insights into this cosmopolitan writer’s work . Moore emerges as a turnof-the-century European artist whose eclectic writings reflect the complex evolution of literature from Naturalism to Modernism through Symbolism and Decadence .

Staging the Other in NineteenthCentury British Drama
Literary Intellectuals
The body of the «Other» – exotic, unfamiliar, fascinating – is the topic of this collection of essays on nineteenth-century British theatre . Arranged chronologically, the volume traces visual representations of the Other across the nineteenth century as well as their legacy in contemporary theatrical culture . Essays explore the concept, politics and aesthetic features of the «exotic» body on stage, be it the actual body of the actor or actress, or the fictional, «picturesque» bodies brought on stage . Far from focusing exclusively on the subaltern, colonial subject, this volume addresses the Other in its wider meaning, focusing on case studies as famous as Edwin Forrest and Ira Aldridge or as neglected as that of the Māori who appeared on the London stage in the 1860s . Written by an international group of scholars, this collection offers an informed, updated insight into the extensive and multifaceted presence of the non-British in both Georgian and Victorian drama, investigated through new lenses and materials to shed light on the complex engagement of nineteenth-century British culture with alterity .
East and West The modernist movement, in literature as well as in criticism, provides a very instructive case of iconoclastic canon-change and subsequent canon-formation, and modern British literary criticism has been remarkably canon-forming in its basic tendency . This is particularly true of the line in British criticism that has revealed strong cultural preoccupations primarily centered on the works of T . S . Eliot and F . R . Leavis . George Orwell is a figure in the history of British cultural criticism who links the prewar and the post-war generations of modernist writers and critics . Raymond Williams is the direct continuator of the line in English literary and cultural criticism formed by Eliot, Lawrence, and Leavis . The first seven of the essays collected in this book deal with Western intellectuals – in fact, with this largely British tradition of cultural criticism . They continue the argument, centered on these main figures, as it has subsequently developed in the works of Christopher Caudwell, E . P . Thompson, Perry Anderson, and John McGrath, among others, and touch upon more contemporary literary and cultural issues . Some of these issues, such as the spread of Islamophobia among a number of contemporary British intellectuals, are also discussed in another chapter in the book, and the division of what may be called the international intelligentsia into radicals, pundits, renegades, and imposters, in another chapter . The last three essays deal with major Arab intellectuals and Arab literary and cultural concerns . They focus mainly on the relationships of these key figures with political power, cultural identity, and exile .

Ireland: Authority and Crisis This volume sets out to investigate how various forms of authority in Irish culture and history have been challenged and transformed by a crisis situation . In literature and the arts, a reappraisal of the authority of canonical authors – and also of traditional forms, paradigms and critical discourses – principally revolves around intertextuality and rewriting, as well as the wider crisis of (authoritative) representation . What is the authority of an author, of a text, of literature itself? How do works of fiction represent, generate or resolve crises on their own aesthetic, stylistic and representational terms? The Irish Republic has faced a number of serious crises and challenges since it came into existence . In recent years, the collapse of the Celtic Tiger has acted as a catalyst for change, revealing various structures of political, religious and economic authority giving way under pressure . In Northern Ireland, the Good Friday Agreement has led to major developments as new authorities endowed with legislative and executive powers have been set up . In its focus on the subject of authority and crisis in Ireland, this book opens up a rich and varied field of investigation .

European Voices in the Poetry of W.B. Yeats and Geoffrey Hill
Alice Munro: Reminiscence, Interpretation, Adaptation and Comparison
«The duty of the present is neither to copy nor to deny the past but to resurrect it», wrote W .H . Auden in 1948 . The European voices that William B . Yeats and Sir Geoff rey Hill choose to resurrect reflect their shared hope in the future of humanity, as the essays in this book demonstrate . From Greek and Roman voices, through the Italian Renaissance and into our troubled present, these poets use myth, as Auden suggested, «to make private experiences public» and «public events personal» . They write about the past to maintain continuity and provide the transmission of cultural values or to avoid the repetition of atrocities . As visionary poets, their talents at reviving the poetic voice captivate and inspire . The essays in this volume elucidate both their poetic vision and resistance . The chapters in this book derive from an international conference on Yeats and Hill that took place at the Institut Catholique de Paris in 2013 . They are preceded by abstracts and a general introduction in French .

Kazuo Ishiguro and Max Frisch: Bending Facts in Unreliable and Unnatural Narration
New Critical Perspectives on Franco-Irish Relations
France and Ireland
Since the late 1990s unreliable narration has garnered popularity in narrative theory and has sparked a lively debate among scholars . This book traces the theoretical discussions surrounding narrative unreliability and examines the relationship of unreliable narration to antimimetic techniques of portraying self-deception . Standing on the border between classical and postclassical narratology, the study analyses Kazuo Ishiguro’s and Max Frisch’s innovative narrative strategies, offering new perspectives on their œuvre and on unreliable narration as a narratological concept . A comparison of the methods Ishiguro and Frisch employ to explore the psychology of their narrators reveals a fascinating parallel in their development as novelists .
This collection of critical essays proposes new and original readings of the relationship between French and Irish literature and culture . It seeks to re-evaluate, deconstruct and question artistic productions and cultural phenomena while pointing to the potential for comparative analysis between the two countries . The volume covers the French wine tradition, the Irish rebellion and the weight of religious and cultural tradition in both countries, seeking to examine these familiar topics from unconventional perspectives . Some contributors offer readings of established figures in Irish and French literature, from Flann O’Brien to Albert Camus; others highlight writers who have been left outside the critical frame, including Sydney Owenson, Jean Giono and Katherine Cecil Thurston . Finally, the volume explores areas such as sport, education, justice and alternative religious practices, generating unexpected and thought-provoking cultural connections between France and Ireland .
Notes and Narratives The rich association between Ireland and France is embodied in music, art and creative writing from both countries and this collection provides a tantalising selection of these interweaving influences . The book presents a vivid picture of interactions between composers, performers, poets and novelists on each side of the Celtic Sea . Surprises abound, with music unexpectedly linking Ireland and France through George Alexander Osborne and Frédéric Chopin, through Thomas Moore and Jean-Jacques Rousseau, through Irish-inspired French opera and a French-directed Irish orchestra . Words and music meet in a Kate O’Brien novel, a musical interpretation of Verlaine and a selection of Paula Meehan’s poetry, while the encounter between wine and music creates new possibilities for artistic and cultural expression . Exploring the works and influence of a wide range of figures including James Joyce, Marcel Proust, Jacques Derrida, J .M . Synge, Hélène Cixous, Eiléan Ní Chuilleanáin, Hector Berlioz, Maurice Ravel, Neil Jordan and John Field, the essays collected here uncover a wealth of artistic interconnections between France and Ireland .

H. G. Wells: The Literary Traveller in His Fantastic Short Story Machine
The Leaving of Ireland
The Uncanny House in Elizabeth Bowen’s Fiction
The book offers a thorough study of the literary tensions and two-world structure of the fantastic short stories by H . G . Wells (1866– 1946) . It exposes trickster games in the storytelling and pinpoints Wells’s staple methods of artistic composition – the mounting of various literary tensions built upon the body of traditional, dexterously combined genre elements and innovative topoi .
Migration and Belonging in Irish Literature and Film The Leaving of Ireland brings together an international group of scholars to reflect critically on the unfolding nature of the experience of Irish cultural identity at a time when Ireland is struggling to adjust to the shattering impacts of globalization and religious scandals of recent decades . Looking back over the last two centuries, the volume considers a range of literary and fi lmic works that have sought to articulate something of this experience and its multiple locations . The essays revisit crucial constituents of Irish history and self-perception at the micro-level, exploring the representation of individual experiences of migration and identification and the definition of a sense of belonging . They also examine these issues at the macro-level, looking at larger politico-historical transformations, national affiliations and changed social and geographical landscapes .

The book focuses on the uncanny in the domestic space of Elizabeth Bowen’s fiction . Providing a psychoanalytic reading of selected works it aims to examine the image of the house in Bowen’s prose and to analyse its uncanniness in relation to the characters’ identity . In her book, Olena Lytovka focuses on an important aspect of Elizabeth Bowen’s fiction – the motif of the uncanny house . By applying the Freudian notion of the unheimlich to the analysis of selected novels and short stories, Lytovka demonstrates how the traumatic experience of loss is mirrored in the characters’ perception of the domestic space as uncanny . The uncanny, she argues, is a reflection of the psychological condition of the perceiving mind in the state of crisis rather than the quality of the space . This insightful and wellresearched study is a valuable contribution to Bowen criticism and will be relevant to literary scholars and students alike .

Family and Dysfunction in Contemporary Irish Narrative and Film
Charles Darwin’s Looking Glass
Irish Literature and the First World War
Institutionalized through religious, moral and political discourses, the family has become an icon of Irish culture . Historically, the influence of the Church and the State fostered the ideal of a nuclear family based on principles of Catholic morality, patriarchal authority, heterosexuality and hierarchy, which acted as the cornerstone of Irish society . However, in recent decades the introduction of liberal policies, the progressive recognition of women’s rights, the secularization of society and the effects of immigration and globalization have all contributed to challenging the validity of this ideal, revealing the dysfunction that may lie at the heart of the rigidly constructed family cell . This volume surveys the representation of the concepts of home and family in contemporary Irish narrative and fi lm, approaching the issue from a broad range of perspectives . The earlier chapters look at specific aspects of familial dysfunction, while the final section includes interviews with the writer Emer Martin and fi lmmakers Jim Sheridan and Kirsten Sheridan .
The Theory of Evolution and the Life of its Author in Contemporary British Fiction and Non-Fiction The book offers a comparative analysis of diverse Darwinism-inspired discourses such as post-modern novels, science fiction, popular science and nature fi lms . Analysing the uses of the evolutionary discourse in recent literature and fi lms, the study demonstrates how natural science influences the contemporary humanities and how literary conventions are used to make scientific and popular-science texts intelligible and attractive . Charles Darwin’s Looking Glass shows how and why today’s culture gazes upon the myth of Darwin, his theory, and his life in order to find its own reflection .
Culture, Identity and Memory This book analyses poetry and prose written by combatant and non-combatant Irish writers during the First World War, focusing on key works influenced by Irish, English and European literary traditions . It highlights the complex positions adopted by writers in relation to the international conflict and to Irish debates about nationhood, which resist reduction to the simple binaries of Unionist/ pro-war and Nationalist/anti-war . The book goes on to discuss the literature of the decades following the war, looking at how the conflict was remembered in the two parts of the now divided island, both by individuals and collectively, and investigating the dynamic interrelationship between personal recollection and public memory . In conclusion, the author discusses contemporary literature about the war, which often examines family memory as well as collective memory, and explores its role in the narrative of nationhood, both north and south of the border .

Stage Histories
Afro-Caribbean Poetry in English
The Ordinary and the Short Story
Post-War British Historical Drama
Cultural Traditions (1970s–2000s)
Short Fiction of T .F . Powys and V .S . Pritchett
The book presents post-war British historical drama not only as a phenomenon within literature and theatre, but also as an alternative form of representing the past, not as much competing with historiography as complementing it . The author shows how some of the central concerns of late twentieth-century methodology of history were also crucial for the historical drama of that time by applying Hayden White’s classification of categories determining the shape of historical writing to the plays of Robert Bolt, David Hare, Howard Barker and Tom Stoppard . The plays discussed in the book offer not only different visions of past events, but also different visions of historiography itself .
This book presents the phenomenon of AfroCaribbean poetry in English from Jamaican classic dub poetry of the 1970s to (Black) British post-dub verse of the 2000s . It showcases the literary continuum, as represented by Jamaican, Jamaican-British, and ultimately (Black) British writers – Mutabaruka, Michael Smith, Linton Kwesi Johnson, Jean Binta Breeze, Benjamin Zephaniah, and Patience Agbabi, respectively . The work of these authors represents a gradual shift from the emphasis on ethics to the preponderance of aesthetics that include social concerns typical of classic dub poetry .
This formalist-narratological study of T .F . Powys’ and V .S . Pritchett’s short fiction reestablishes both authors as important contributors to the history of the short story form . It also discusses how writers, who did not belong to the modernist avant-garde innovation, address the problems of the short story form in the twentieth century . The study takes a close look at the uses of the ordinary and analyses character, setting, and event presentation, narrators, audiences, narrativity, eventfulness, causality, and narrative rhetoric . It presents two kinds of short fiction and two kinds of the ordinary: the ecstatic one, focused on violations of norm, and the static kind that reassures its patterns .

Authority and Wisdom in the New Ireland Studies in Literature and Culture Since the end of the nineteenth century, Ireland has witnessed a profound reconfiguration of its cultural, political, constitutional and religious identities, resulting in an unparalleled questioning of the dominant discourses and narratives that have seemingly defined the nation . The essays in this collection examine the ways in which established Irish socio-cultural structures of authority and their constructs of collective identity have been challenged within literary and cultural discourses of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries . Every challenge to the purported wisdom of these authority structures adds a new facet to the complexity of Irish national identity and contributes to the continuous evolution of the ‘New Ireland’, a phrase often used to signify the momentous transformations of the country in times of change .

The Literary Avatars of Christian Sacramentality, Theology and Practical Life in Recent Modernity
Prag in der amerikanischen Literatur: Cynthia Ozick und Philip Roth
Twelve Anglicists (from France, America, Poland, and Romania) who met in Bucharest to debate Religion and Spirituality in Literature and the Arts at the ACED Conference in June 2015 join their voices in demonstrating the vitally spiritual power of Christianity in the recently modern world (in twentieth and twentyfirst century literature and society) . Poetry (by Eliot, Yeats, Heaney, David Jones, Hill, G .M . Brown) and fiction (Henry James, Lodge, Evelyn Waugh, Flannery O’Connor, Rose Macaulay and Ron Hansen), interpreted with (Thomist and more recent) theology (J .H . Newman’s, Paul Tillich’s, Hans Urs von Balthasar’s, De Certeau’s) and philosophy (from Plato to Gadamer) in mind, give heartening suggestions for transcending, along Catholic, Anglican, and Orthodox lines, the modern secular ethos .
Präsentation und Signifikanz Prags im Erzählwerk von Cynthia Ozick und Philip Roth bilden das zentrale, bislang nicht erforschte Thema dieses Buches . Die Verbindungen, die durch Ozicks Rückgriff auf die Prager jüdische Legendentradition und Roths durch Kafka ausgelöste Befassung mit dem Prag der 1970er Jahre zur amerikanischen Gegenwart hergestellt werden, verdeutlichen die transatlantische Ausstrahlung dieser traditionsreichen europäischen Stadt, die nicht nur als Brücke zwischen den Kontinenten, sondern auch als Vorbild und Gedächtnisort fungiert . Um das überragende Wirkpotenzial dieser zum American Icon erwachsenen Stadt aufzuzeigen, bedient sich die Autorin der Theorien der Imagologie und Ikonologie und erkundet die historischen Grundlagen sowie die vorausgegangenen literarischen Darstellungen .

The Racial Horizon of Utopia Unthinking the Future of Race in Late Twentieth-Century American Utopian Novels Race and utopia have been fundamental features of US American culture since the origins of the country . However, racial ideology has often contradicted the ideals of social and political equality in the United States . This book surveys reimaginings of race in major late twentieth-century US American utopian novels from the 1970s to the 1990s . Dorothy Bryant, Marge Piercy, Samuel Delany, Octavia Butler and Kim Stanley Robinson all present radical new configurations of race in a more ideal society, yet continually encounter an ideological blockage as the horizon beyond which we cannot rethink race . Nevertheless, these novels create productive strains of thinking to grapple with the question of race in US American culture . Drawing on feminist theory and critiques of democracy, the author argues that our utopian dreams cannot be furthered unless we come to terms with the phenomenology of race and the impasse of the individual in liberal humanist democracy .

Poetics and Politics of Place in Pastoral International Perspectives In a time of global environmental crisis, pastoralism may seem beside the point . Yet pastoral ideals are still alive even though they often manifest themselves by ironic indirection . What can the pastoral tradition teach us about our ties to particular places? The contributors to this volume attempt to lay the groundwork for the ongoing concern with pastoral and with its critical revision . This volume brings together new essays that focus on painting, photography, poetry, essay, fiction and fi lm, from the Renaissance to the present . They also take into account an astonishing variety of pastoral places, in Europe, Africa, and North America; country and city; suburbia and industrial zones . Poetics and Politics of Place in Pastoral is not only about reassessing the past, but also provides a sense of future developments as the pastoral reinvents itself for the 21st century .

Playing with Expectations Postmodern Narrative Choices and the African American Novel Playing with Expectations: Postmodern Narrative Choices and the African American Novel explores a merging of works by African American novelists to promote critical acceptance of postmodern literature and advance the legitimacy and usefulness of postmodern literary techniques . This book examines novels by Ishmael Reed, Charles Johnson, and Toni Morrison, and two novels by comparative newcomer Colson Whitehead – all of whom have used postmodern techniques not only to help their work be read, but to gain a racially wide audience that is open, willing, and able to understand . Jean-François Lyotard’s concept of local narratives and grand narratives helps show how African American novels, using postmodern strategies, function as small-scale narratives . Consequently, these narratives, set up in opposition to hegemonic metanarratives, offer readers an alternative mode of thinking to that offered by the larger, more widely diffused and self-distributing grand narratives . By providing realistic characters in ways that defy the typical grand narratives of race, as well as the expectations of storytelling itself, readers are stimulated into new realizations about previously accepted ideas, and become prepared to spread the now-realized truth about the inaccuracies of the racist grand narratives . This book is a vital and thought-provoking addition to the ongoing conversation about storytelling and race, and will engage readers in classroom discussions dealing with race, postmodernism, or twentieth-century literature in a more general sense .

Linguistic and Literary Theories in Reading
Transatlantic Poe
Painter’s Word
Eliot, Williams and Huxley, Readers of the French Poe
Thomas Hart Benton, Marsden Hartley and Ad Reinhardt as Writers
Was Edgar Allan Poe’s work vulgar or a «new specimen of beauty»? Did he represent a critical puzzle for his influential readers or a basis for redefining American literature? This book offers a new understanding of Poe’s literary significance by considering the transatlantic reception of the author in French translation . The translation of Poe into French by Charles Baudelaire ennobled Poe aesthetically and catalysed a wave of critical responses to his work across the Atlantic in the early twentieth century . Readings by T .S . Eliot, William Carlos Williams and Aldous Huxley here become the focus of transatlantic analysis . Contrastive close readings of key essays in which these Anglophone writers engaged with the French Poe set out to achieve two things: first, they shed new light on the constitution of Poe’s commanding critical reputation; secondly, they test comparative methodology as the primary tool of transatlantic enquiry . Situated within an expanding body of Poe scholarship but atypical in design, this book promises to bring about unexpected insights by systematically relating and comparing French and Anglophone discourses .
This book adds a new perspective to the study of American art by reclaiming underrated writings of three 20th century masters, Thomas Hart Benton, Marsden Hartley and Ad Reinhardt . Their rich and diverse literary output was never before studied methodically in and beyond the context of their painting . The book’s first part sets the necessary framework for discussing their texts by outlining the long history of debates about inter-art analogies and rivalries . Through systematic close reading of Benton’s, Hartley’s and Reinhardt’s writings the study reveals novel and unique juxtapositions of visual and verbal elements at work which are present in both their paintings and writings and confirms the existence of a strong link between their painterly and writerly dispositions .
The purpose of this book is to present to scholars, students and enthusiasts in the fields of literature and linguistics a way to study a text analytically . Reading is multi-faceted and shaped by contexts, participants, and technologies . The ways of reading tackled most enthusiastically in this book are interpretations which show active involvement of readers: Each literary or linguistic approach can be compared to a window through which we see, grapple, comprehend, personalize and internalize the text, hence the world .

War Experience and Trauma in American Literature
Ekphrastic Conceptualism in Postmodern British and American Novels
George Orwell Now!
A Study of American Military Memoirs of Operation Iraqi Freedom Walt Whitman wrote: «The real war will never get into the books .» To this day, however, American soldier-authors write about their war and translate traumatic experiences into language accessible to the reader . Veterans of the recent Iraq war do not differ here . Joining the postdraft American military, the selected soldierauthors are thrust into a conflict which soon exceeded governmental, military and public expectations . Focusing on core elements which link the selected military memoirs of Nathaniel Fick, Colby Buzzell, Clint Van Winkle, John Crawford and Matt Gallagher together, this book follows the soldier-authors’ process of soldierization, their loss of innocence, moral responsibility and, finally, coping mechanisms for traumatic experiences sustained in combat .
Don DeLillo, Paul Auster and Tom McCarthy The relationship between the arts has fascinated people for centuries . Discussing the ancient notion of ekphrasis, this study examines the interpenetration of literary and nonliterary art . Traditionally, ekphrasis is defined as a rhetorical device for the poetic description of a painting or a sculpture that has been steadily gaining attention in literary studies since the mid-twentieth century . Taking a close look at the works of Don DeLillo, Paul Auster and Tom McCarthy, the author demonstrates how ekphrasis is useful for reading contemporary novels that feature non-representative, conceptual works of art .
Preface by Richard Blair, Son of George Orwell George Orwell remains an iconic figure today – even though he died in 1950 . His dystopian novel Nineteen Eighty-Four depicts a Big Brother society in which the state intrudes into the most intimate details of people’s lives – and, not surprisingly, it became a constant reference point after Edward Snowden’s revelations . The word «Orwellian» is constantly in the media – used either as a pejorative adjective to evoke totalitarian terror or as a complimentary adjective to mean «displaying outspoken intellectual honesty» . Interest in Orwell’s life and writings – globally – continues unabated . George Orwell Now! brings together thirteen chapters by leading international scholars in four thematic sections .

Queer Eros and Ethos (Ethics) in LGBTQ Young Adult Literature
Minstrel der Moderne
Beyond Borders compiles essays from various authors who explore the queerness of young adult literature that contains lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, queer, and questioning characters, some written by LGBTQ identified authors, while presenting lessons for secondary English classrooms . As queer theorists, the authors ask if young adult literature can imagine other spaces, representations, ways of being, identifications, and inclusion of LGBTQ characters and stories . This collection examines questions of theory as well as classroom literacy practices, while employing new theories in novel and creative intersections with literary texts . The book is perfect for teacher education courses focused on young adult literature, as well as secondary English education courses including methods of teaching English courses, teaching literature methods courses, queer theory in education courses, teaching of writing courses, and content area literacy courses .

Untersuchungen zur inter- und intrakulturellen Übertragbarkeit poetologischer und kunsttheoretischer Prinzipien Das Buch beschäftigt sich mit dem amerikanischen Dichter Ezra Pound, einem der wichtigsten Vertreter der literarischen Moderne . Seine epochalen Theorien des Imagismus und Vortizismus sind die Apizes der Ismen des fin de siècle; seine dichterischen Prinzipien und Methoden der Ausgangspunkt für die Entwicklung einer Kunst und Literatur für das neue 20 . Jahrhundert . Diese Studie untersucht, wie sich seine Lyrik als ein dem Sinnhaften entgegengestellter, extratextlicher Gegenstand fixieren lässt und ob sich eine unmittelbare Verbindung zwischen Pounds Lyrik und physischer Präsenz herstellen lässt . Erstens als Wiederbelebung des klassischen Ideals ut pictura poesis und zweitens als Grundlage der Materialitätsdebatte, die ein zentrales Paradigma der modernen literaturwissenschaftlichen Forschung ist .
The International Turn in American Studies The volume is a contribution to the ongoing debate on the internationalization of American Studies . The essays by European, American and Latin American scholars provide critical evaluations of a wide range of concepts, including trans-national and post-national, international, trans-atlantic, trans-pacific, as well as hemispheric, inter-American and comparative American studies . Combining theoretical reflections and actual case studies, the collection proposes a reassessment of current developments at a time when American nations experience the paradoxical simultaneity of both weakened and strengthened national borders alongside multiple challenges to national sovereignty .

American Literature: 20th–21st Century
Janusz Semrau • Marek Wilczyński (eds.)
Darko Suvin
Jadwiga Węgrodzka (ed.)
Image in Modern(ist) Verse
Metamorphoses of Science Fiction
Characters in Literary Fictions
This collection of essays is a tribute to Andrzej Kopcewicz, the first professor ordinarius of American literature in the history of English studies in Poland . It coincides with the centenary of Imagism and what would have been Professor Kopcewicz’s 80th birthday . The title alludes to his first book which was devoted to the image and the objective correlative in early 20th-century Anglo-American poetry . Image in Modern(ist) Verse opens with a revised and abridged version of that publication . Kopcewicz’s study can be still read as a useful historical, theoretical, and practical introduction to modern poetry . The bulk of the volume is made up of contributions by contemporary academics – Paulina Ambroży, Joseph Kuhn, Paweł Stachura, Jørgen Veisland, and Miłosz Wojtyna – who discuss various facets, strands and sub-strands of Imagism, as well as its ongoing legacy .
On the Poetics and History of a Literary Genre Edited by Gerry Canavan Returning to print for the first time since the 1980s, Metamorphoses of Science Fiction is the origin point for decades of literary and theoretical criticism of science fiction and related genres . Darko Suvin’s paradigm-setting definition of SF as «the literature of cognitive estrangement» established a robust theory of the genre that continues to spark fierce debate, as well as inspiring myriad intellectual descendants and disciples . Suvin’s centuriesspanning history of the genre links SF to a long tradition of utopian and satirical literatures crying out for a better world than this one, showing how SF and the imagination of utopia are now forever intertwined . In addition to the 1979 text of the book, this edition contains three additional essays from Suvin that update, expand and reconsider the terms of his original intervention, as well as a new introduction and preface that situate the book in the context of the decades of SF studies that have followed in its wake .
Frankfurt am Main, 2015 . 170 pp .
The book focuses on the category of character in fiction . It provides a general outline of different approaches to literary character followed by nineteen essays on individual authors from Conrad to Coetzee, on various genres from utopia, fantasy and gothic fiction to academic novel, and on characters’ extra-textual contexts from intertextuality to history and autobiography .

How to Become Jewish Americans?
Little Magazines in Europe, 1921–1938 The book provides a complementary view of modernism by investigating Anglo-American little magazines published in Europe in the 1920s and 1930s . Addressing symbolic and practical aspects of physical location and international themes in the little reviews, it highlights the infrastructure of modernism – networks, finances and genealogies . The authors link activities, strategies and negotiations with the creation of modernism as we know it, as magazine editors are shown to be highly conscious of their role as canon-makers . In this rendition, modernism is intrinsically linked with its agents and practices and pushes the dividing lines between narrow elite culture and wider readerships, as well as between cosmopolites and tourists .

The A Bintel Brief Advice Column in Abraham Cahan’s Yiddish Forverts Created by Abraham Cahan in 1906, the advice column A Bintel Brief ran as the most enduring feature of the New York Yiddish newspaper Forverts for over seven decades . This study takes a closer look at the letters and responses to A Bintel Brief thereby revealing the hardships of uprooted Eastern European Jews . In an uncharted environment they turned to the column for guidance . In his answers, the editor of The Bintel Brief was always sympathetic, yet pragmatic, encouraging assimilation and ethnic group solidarity, thus paving the way for the readers to become accepted Jewish Americans .
Contact and Conflict in English Studies Assistant editors: Christian Grösslinger / Christopher Herzog The book presents contributions to the 2012 conference of the Austrian Association of University Teachers of English in which scholars of various fields of English Studies discuss aspects of contact and conflict in Anglophone literatures, critical theory, cultural studies, interdisciplinary and comparative English studies and English linguistics . The papers reflect current research in these areas and show that disciplinary classifications are no longer as rigid as they used to be: Topics are as widely spread as linguistic variation, Māori English, English as a lingua franca, intergenerational conflict, hip hop discourse, literature and the creative arts, science drama, childhood in crime fiction, and the crisis of «high art» .

The Shadow of Torture: Debating US Transgressions in Military Interventions, 1899–2008 The photographs from Abu Ghraib triggered a debate on torture in the United States that has been led with a significant amount of visibility . What has been noticeably absent, however, is a thorough historical contextualization of US torture following September 11, 2001 . The Shadow of Torture analyzes the debates on torture during the Vietnam War and the Philippine-American War and shows that the current controversy did not arise out of a political vacuum but reflects and draws upon pre-existing discursive contexts and practices .

Family and Kinship in the United States Cultural Perspectives on Familial Belonging The volume takes a close look at the forms and functions of family and kinship in cultural narratives in the United States . It analyzes social and cultural contexts of kinship and family membership, relations of family and nation on a metaphorical level, and the political discourses that regulate sexuality and reproduction . Representations of family and kinship inform all aspects of American life, which is prominently noticeable in politics, legislation, art, and the media . Family discourses are employed to communicate and negotiate constellations of power and they can serve to investigate differences, struggles, alliances, strategic endeavors, and innovative conceptualizations of kinship . The essays collected in this volume provide readings of texts across various genres that highlight the role of cultural production in reconfiguring paradigms of family and kinship in the US .

American Wild Zones
Spatial Perspectives
Space, Experience, Consciousness
Essays on Literature and Architecture
inklings – Jahrbuch für Literatur und Ästhetik
The contributors understand the wild zone as denoting the existence and experience of a group (ethnic, social, sub-cultural, sexual, religious, etc .) which is/was marginalized in American society . Reaching far beyond the boundaries of original agenda (Edwin Ardener’s and Elaine Showalter’s), the term’s applicability has been significantly enlarged . Its fluidity or fuzziness, however, ought to be taken as a blessing: in the rapidly changing contemporary («liquid») world it is the language that needs to keep up with new circumstances and developments, not the other way round .
This interdisciplinary collection explores the dynamic relationship between literature and architecture from the mid-nineteenth century to the present . Contributions take the reader on a journey through unexplored byways, from Istanbul to New York to London, from event spaces to domestic interiors to the fictional buildings of the novel . Topics include the building of imaginary spaces, such as the architectural models of comic book worlds created by the cartoonist Seth and the Museum of Innocence by Orhan Pamuk, which is both novel and building . Real architectural spaces are recontextualized through literature: reading the work of Louis Kahn through his personal library and envisioning the writing haven of James Baldwin through his novels . Another approach links literary style with architectural form, as in the work of the New York School poets, who reformulate the built environment on the page . Architectural landmarks like Robert Stevenson’s Roundhouse (1847), Joseph Paxton’s Crystal Palace for the Great Exhibition and the 2012 Olympic Park are reconsidered as counter-narratives of postcolonialism and empire, and the New York skyline is examined alongside literature and visual culture . This collection demonstrates the reciprocal exchange that exists between the disciplines of literature and architecture and promotes new ways of understanding these interactions .

Imagining Bombay, London, New York and Beyond
Constructing Scottish Identity in Media Discourses
South Asian Diasporic Writing from 1990 to the Present
The Use of Common Sense Knowledge in the Scottish Press
This book examines new literary imaginings of the interconnected city spaces of Bombay, London and New York in South Asian diasporic texts from the 1990s to the present . It charts the transition from London-centric studies on postcolonial city spaces to the new axis of Bombay, London and New York . The book argues that two key dynamics have developed from this shift: on the one hand, London, once the destination of choice for migrants, becomes a «transit zone» for onward movement to New York; on the other, different cities are perceived to coexist and come together in one single location . To investigate these new webs of interactions and power relations, this monograph employs Bakhtin’s model of the chronotope . Serving as a magnifying lens, the chronotope inserts different spatial and temporal segments within wider narratives of urban space . This book promotes a new understanding of the cities of the South Asian diaspora as subversive sites for defining processes of cultural signification .
Scotland’s efforts to establish and assert its distinct national identity have a long tradition . National identity has been a central theme throughout the centuries in a country where economic, political, and social issues have tended to be closely bound up with questions of national mentality and emotion . This book examines the part played by Scottish newspapers in constructing identity during a key period of the devolution process, 1997–2011 . It uses insights from the fields of cultural and media studies, sociology, cognitive science and narratology into the ways in which culturally defined knowledge and the notions of identity emerging from it have been constructed . The study contributes to the understanding of Scottish identity, and its evaluations are relevant beyond the immediate context of Scotland and the United Kingdom .
Writers, their Research, Worlds and Stories Fiction plays a vital role in describing history and transmitting culture . How writers understand and use history can play an equally important role in how they navigate a novel . This book explores the nature of the author’s relationship with history and fiction – often using writers’ own words – as well as the role history plays in fiction . Focusing on genre fiction, this study considers key issues in the relationship between history and fiction, such as how writers contextualise the history they use in their fiction and how they incorporate historical research . The book also addresses the related topic of world building using history, discussing the connections between the science fiction writers’ notion of world building and the scholarly understanding of story space and explaining the mechanics of constructing the world of the novel . This book places the writing of fiction into a wider framework of history and writing and encourages dialogue between writers and historians .

Norman Mailer and the Modernist Turn
New York, New York!
An Introduction to Fictional Worlds Theory
Urban Spaces, Dreamscapes, Contested Territories
This study is a comprehensive scholarly treatment of Norman Mailer’s entire œuvre, including not only his fiction and non-fiction, but also his correspondence, his early journal articles and his interviews . It outlines Mailer’s Entwicklungsgeschichte, illuminating the lines of continuity and discontinuity in his literary achievement and shows Mailer’s work to be firmly ensconced in the tradition of Modernism and inspired by the Pound-Eliot axis . It argues that Mailer’s literary opus is intertwined with his worldview, which, despite its inconsistencies and contradictions, contains a systematic structure .
In collaboration with Björn Bosserhoff Once a center of transatlantic cultural exchange and the avant-garde arts, New York City has transformed into a global metropolis . This book traces a shift that took shape as cultural practices and media underwent dramatic changes: it takes us from modernist visions of urban sublimity to postmodernist cityscapes; from Hart Crane’s Brooklyn Bridge to the Flushing Meadows fairgrounds; from Mina Loy’s poetics to Klaus Nomi’s transgressive musical performances and Jem Cohen’s multimedia experiments; from Martin Scorsese’s Taxi Driver and the Magnum Photos portfolio to post-9/11 cinema and the photo blogs of the internet age . As we visit these urban spaces and dreamscapes, we enter territories that remain contested, dynamic locales in a city that keeps unfolding its transformative force .
The author extensively details, analyses and compares key concepts and strategies of fictional worlds theory: a theory which has, over recent years, developed rather rapidly and is connected with leading scholars in the area of literary studies, such as Lubomír Doležel, Umberto Eco, Thomas Pavel, Ruth Ronen, and Marie-Laure Ryan . The book focuses on theoretical suggestions from which the fictional worlds theory borrows its main ideas, that is, logic, semantics, and linguistics . It also examines areas of literary theoretical investigation, in which the fictional world theory has proven itself to be a significant tool for conducting more detailed research, namely intertextuality, fictional and historical narration .

Partial Visions
Writers and Artists in Dialogue
Feminism and Utopianism in the 1970s
Historical Fiction about Women Painters
Post-9/11 Representations of Arab Men by Arab American Women Writers
What would a good world for women look like? How would we get there from where we are and how would we have to change ourselves in the process? This book examines a critical moment in recent American and western European history when the utopian dimension of political movements was particularly generative and feminism was at their core . The imaginative literature that emerged out of American, French, and German feminisms of the 1970s engaged the dialectic between the actual and the possible in radically new and creative ways . Ranging from conventional utopian and science fictions to avant-garde and experimental texts, they countered the idea of utopia as a pre-set goal with the idea of the utopian as a process of «dreaming forwards .» This book explores the transformative potential of feminist visions of change, even as it sees their ideological blind spots . It does more than simply look back to the 1970s . Instead, it looks ahead, anticipating some of the shifts and changes of feminist thought in the following decades: its transnational scope, its critique of identity politics and the gendered politics of sexuality, and its embrace of affect as an analytical category . The author argues that the radical utopianism of second wave feminisms has not lost its urgency . The transformations they envisioned are still our challenge, as the vital work of social change remains undone .
This unique work of scholarship explores contemporary issues of male spectatorship and the importance of biography for art criticism in the work of Tracy Chevalier, Eunice Lipton, Anna Banti, Kate Braverman, and Susan Vreeland . Drawing upon feminist concepts on the male and female gaze, Dr . Cortney Cronberg Barko perceptively examines how these authors challenge androcentric models of reading by demonstrating women’s powers as readers and writers . This intriguing study reveals that authors working within the genre of fictionalized biographies of women painters reconstruct art history to create a new canon for women artists and invent a rhetoric about art that empowers women . This book is ideal for art history courses and a wide range of literature courses, including fiction, literary theory, literary criticism, feminist literary theory, and women’s literature .

Affirmation and Resistance Post–9/11 Representations of Arab Men by Arab American Women Writers: Affirmation and Resistance examines the portrayals of Arab masculinities in novels published after September 11, 2001, by women of Arab descent in the United States . The book provides a historical account of the mainstream representations of Arab masculinities in the United States, using them as a contrast to the realities experienced by Arab men in the American diaspora . Considering the construction of male and female Arab American identities, this book illustrates the role of feminism in Arab American literature written by women and its influence on women’s depictions of Arab men . Through an analysis of representative works by Diana Abu-Jaber, Laila Halaby, and Randa Jarrar, among others, this volume demonstrates how Arab American women’s anti-racist and anti-sexist struggles inform their nuanced portrayals of Arab men . This book will be essential for professors and students of ethnic American literatures in general and Arab American studies in particular, as well as for those interested in women’s studies and masculinity studies .

Arbitration Discourse in Asia
This volume was conceived as a space to provide visibility for South Asian women writers whose work has not had much exposure in the West . It contributes to the knowledge of South Asian women writers by including scholarship not only on little-known writers but also by scholars from India – in particular, those whose voices do not necessarily find themselves in western academic publications . Many South Asian women writers engage with the overall quest for survival, which can be affi liated with all the themes expressed in this volume: trauma, diaspora, injustice, resistance, place, space, language, and identity . The texts discussed herein contribute to the ongoing discourse related to such themes in postcolonial studies and transnational literature, and could be used in courses on South Asian literature, women’s writing, postcolonial studies and literature, and world or transnational literature .
Arbitration is the most widely used alternative method to resolve commercial disputes between parties . Since arbitration in international contexts is equally applicable to legal traditions across the world, there has been incessant effort on the part of all jurisdictions to harmonize principles and practices to establish a unified system of arbitration . As differences are difficult to reconcile, there has been quite a bit of interest and effort invested in the study of some of the key issues and challenges in the field . This volume reports on one such initiative undertaken by an interdisciplinary project, whose main objective is to investigate the norms and arbitral practices in some important Asian countries from the point of view of discursive practices prevalent in these jurisdictions . The project focuses on the documents used in arbitration in the main Asian countries and compares them with those employed in other continents . The investigated texts include not only norms and awards, but also interviews with professionals in the field so as to gain direct insights into the linguistic and textual choices employed in the drafting of these documents .

From a historical perspective, the full academic establishment of Women’s and Gender Studies is a radical and far-reaching innovation . Decisive impulses have come from the United States, the European unification and globalization . European Women’s and Gender Studies are therefore intimately linked to the English language and Anglophone cultures, as the near untranslatability of «gender» shows . In this volume 25 experts present surveys for their countries with a historical and European contextualization and offer fundamental insights not only for English Studies but also various other disciplines .

Insights Into Medical Communication This book analyses the subject of medical communication from a range of innovative perspectives, covering a broad spectrum of approaches and procedures that are particularly significant in this field . In this volume, medical communication is analyzed from various viewpoints: not only from a merely linguistic angle, with a focus on the description of the genres used in medical and healthcare contexts, but also from a social and cultural standpoint, with an emphasis both on the doctor-patient relationship and on the social relevance of the other types of communicative links existing between the many communities involved in this type of interaction . The study of some of the main fields typical of medical communication has highlighted a considerable variety of themes, data and research methods which are clearly representative of the eclectic interest in this specific domain and of the wide range of approaches developed for its investigation . As the various chapters show, linguistic analysis proves to be highly applicable to textualizations involving multiple interactions and practices, and several kinds of participants, including different healthcare professionals, trainees and patients .

A Variationist Sociolinguistic Study of (th) and (dh) in Urban Western Irish English
Sprechen und Schreiben im Medium fremder Sprachen bereiten schottischen Schülern oft Schwierigkeiten . Interkulturelles Lernen scheint als Unterrichtsprinzip dabei geeignet, Motivation und Selbstbewusstsein zu steigern . Dieses Buch konzentriert sich auf die Erforschung von integrativen Lehr-Lernprozessen zum Schreiben und Sprechen im interkulturellen Unterricht . Die Autorin zeigt auf, wie kommunikative Kompetenz sowie prozessorientiertes und kreatives Schreiben Lehrer und Schüler bei der Verbesserung der Schreibund Sprechfähigkeit im Fachbereich Deutsch als Fremdsprache unterstützen . Eine detaillierte curriculare Analyse geht einher mit quantitativen und qualitativen Forschungsmethoden . Die Autorin präsentiert einen Empfehlungskatalog für den DaF-Unterricht in Schottland .
This volume is a novel approach to the corpus-based variationist sociolinguistic study of contemporary urban western Irish English . Based on qualitative data as well as on linguistic features extracted from the Corpus of Galway City Spoken English, this study approaches the major sociolinguistic characteristics of (th) and (dh) variability in Galway City English . It demonstrates the diverse local patterns of variability and change in the phonetic realisation of the dental fricatives and establishes a considerable degree of divergence from traditional accounts on Irish English . This volume suggests that the linguistic stratification of variants of (th) and (dh) in Galway correlates both with the social stratification of the city itself and with the stratification of speakers by social status, sex/gender and age group .

A Lexical Description of English for Architecture
A Passion for Getting It Right
A Corpus-based Approach This book offers a thorough lexical description of an English for Specific Purposes (ESP) variety, English for Architecture, by means of a selfmade corpus . As other knowledge communities, Architecture practitioners have a distinctive discourse and a linguistic identity of their own . Both are conveyed through specific linguistic realizations, and are of considerable interest in the field of ESP . The corpus used was designed for the purpose of describing and analyzing the main lexical features of Architecture Discourse from three different perspectives: word-formation, loanword neology and semantic neology, which are the three main foundations of lexis . In order to analyze all materials a database of almost three thousand entries was produced, including a description and classification of every word from the corpus considered relevant for the analysis . Thanks to this methodology the lexical character of Architecture language is ultimately revealed in connection with the linguistic identity of its practitioners .
Essays and Appreciations in Honor of Michael J . Colacurcio’s 50 Years of Teaching For 50 years Michael J . Colacurcio has been a leader in the criticism of early and antebellum American literature . In The Province of Piety, New Essays on The Scarlet Letter, Doctrine and Difference, and Godly Letters, as well as editions and often-reprinted reviews and essays, Dr . Colacurcio has continued to defend a rare vision of the political and intellectual depth of America’s serious fiction and the aesthetic power and charm of its religious poetry and prose . In light of many honors such as the Book of the Year Award from the Conference of Christianity and Literature and election in 2007 to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, UCLA raised him to the rank of Distinguished Professor . Yet for all his dedication to research, his students know him as an unforgettable teacher, who has continued to win several teaching awards at both Cornell and UCLA . The present volume aspires to celebrate Dr . Colacurcio’s 50 years of transformative teaching through an exciting bounty of original and classic essays by some of his most talented students and eminent colleagues from his very first years at Cornell up to and including his current students at UCLA .

The impact of socio-cultural learning tasks on students’ foreign grammatical language awareness
Inter- und transkulturelles Lernen im Englischunterricht der Sekundarstufe II
Wortschatzlernen in bilingualen Schulen und Kindertagesstätten
Das didaktische Modell der Transnational Cultural Studies in Theorie und Unterrichtspraxis
Das Buch präsentiert Forschungsergebnisse zur Wortschatzentwicklung bei Lernern in Kindertagesstätten, Grundschulen und weiterführenden Schulen mit bilingualem Unterricht bzw . bilingualer Betreuung . Der Band verdeutlicht, wie sich bilingualer Unterricht/bilinguale Betreuung auf das Wissen um Wörter in mehr als einer Sprache auswirken, und weist gleichzeitig auf Unterschiede und Parallelen zwischen dem Wortschatzerwerb im Erst- und Zweitspracherwerb hin . Einige der Kapitel gehen darüber hinaus der Frage nach, welche Strategien Betreuungs- und Lehrkräfte anwenden sollten, um den Erwerb lexikalischen Wissens kontinuierlich und unter Berücksichtigung inhaltlicher Anforderungen effektiv bei bilingualen Lernern fördern zu können .
A study conducted in German post-DESI EFL classrooms The book introduces an innovative way of teaching grammatical language awareness via socio-cultural learning tasks (SCLTs) . It takes a close look at task-supported teaching/ learning and socio-cultural learning theory and how they are combined to develop challenging and motivating learning tasks . It also presents ways to implement SCLTs in heterogeneous EFL classrooms and evaluates the learning potential of SCLTs against the backdrop of a more traditional teaching and learning approach (PPP) . Besides the illumination of the very promising concept of SCLTs, the applied qualitative and quantitative research methods hope to be a valuable contribution to SLA research .
Dieses Buch leistet einen Beitrag zur Debatte um eine transkulturelle Öff nung der englischen Kultur- und Literaturdidaktik . Es sucht dazu den Dialog mit den American Studies .

Die Transnational Studies untersuchen Amerika im globalen Zeitalter verstärkt hinsichtlich seiner transnationalen und transkulturellen Verbindungen . Basierend auf den Schlüsselkonzepten des Forschungsprogramms der Transnational American Studies sowie auf Ansätzen der Cultural Studies im Englischunterricht entwickelt der Autor ein didaktisches Modell zur Gestaltung inter- und transkultureller Lernprozesse der Sekundarstufe II (Transnational Cultural Studies) .

Ralahine Utopian Studies Edited by Raffaella Baccolini, Antonis Balasopoulos, Joachim Fischer, Michael J. Griffin, Naomi Jacobs, Michael G. Kelly, Tom Moylan and Phillip E. Wegner
ISSN: 1661-5875 www.peterlang.com/?rus
Ralahine Utopian Studies is the publishing project of the Ralahine Centre for Utopian Studies at the University of Limerick in association with the University of Bologna, the University of Florida and the University of Maine . The series publishes high-quality scholarship that addresses the theory and practice of utopianism (including Anglophone, continental European and indigenous and postcolonial traditions, and contemporary and historical periods) . Publications (in English and other European languages) include original monographs and essay collections (including theoretical, textual and ethnographic/institutional research), English-language translations of utopian scholarship in other national languages, reissues of classic scholarly works that are out of print and annotated editions of original utopian literary and other texts (including translations) . While the series editors seek work that engages with the current scholarship and debates in the field of utopian studies, they will not privilege any particular critical or theoretical orientation . They welcome submissions by established or emerging scholars working within or outside the academy . Given the multilingual and interdisciplinary remit of the University of Limerick and the University of Bologna, they especially welcome comparative studies in any disciplinary or transdisciplinary framework .

English Language and Literatures
Reimagining Ireland Edited by Eamon Maher The concepts of Ireland and ‘Irishness’ are in constant flux in the wake of an ever-increasing reappraisal of the notion of cultural and national specificity in a world assailed from all angles by the forces of globalisation and uniformity . Reimagining Ireland interrogates Ireland’s past and present and suggests possibilities for the future by looking at Ireland’s literature, culture and history and subjecting them to the most up-to-date critical appraisals associated with sociology, literary theory, historiography, political science and theology . Some of the pertinent issues include, but are not confined to, Irish writing in English and Irish, Nationalism, Unionism, the Northern ‘Troubles’, the Peace Process, economic development in Ireland, the impact and decline of the Celtic Tiger, Irish spirituality, the rise and fall of organised religion, the visual arts, popular cultures, sport, Irish music and dance, emigration and the Irish diaspora, immigration and multiculturalism, marginalisation, globalisation, modernity/postmodernity and postcolonialism . The series publishes monographs, comparative studies, interdisciplinary projects, conference proceedings and edited books .

Studies on Themes and Motifs in Literature Edited by Virginia L. Lewis, Edward T. Larkin and Hugo Walter The series is designed to advance the publication of research pertaining to themes and motifs in literature . The studies cover cross-cultural patterns as well as the entire range of national literatures . They trace the development and use of themes and motifs over extended periods, elucidate the significance of specific themes or motifs for the formation of period styles, and analyze the unique structural function of themes and motifs . By examining themes or motifs in the work of an author or period, the studies point to the impulses authors received from literary tradition, the choices made, and the creative transformation of the cultural heritage . The series will include publications of colloquia and theoretical studies that contribute to a greater understanding of literature .

Transatlantic Studies in British and North American Culture Edited by Marek Wilczynski The interdisciplinary series Transatlantic Studies in British and North American Culture brings together literary and cultural studies concerning literatures and cultures of the English-speaking world, particularly those of Great Britain, Ireland, the United States, and Canada . The range of topics to be addressed includes literature, theater, film, and art, considered in various twenty-first-century theoretical perspectives, such as, for example (but not exclusively), New Historicism and canon formation, cognitive narratology, gender and queer studies, performance studies, memory and trauma studies, and New Art History . The editors are leaving a broad margin for the innovative and the unpredictable, hoping to attract authors whose approaches will point to new directions of research as regards both thematic areas and methods . Comparative Polish-Anglo-American proposals will be considered, too . Authors are welcome to submit manuscripts of monographs, collected volumes, post-conference volumes as well as dissertations .

Writing and Culture in the Long Nineteenth Century Edited by J.B. Bullen and Isobel Armstrong The long nineteenth century, extending from the Napoleonic Wars to the First World War, is a rich and complex period of cultural interaction . This series aims to publish the work of scholars and critics whose interests lie within this period . Some of the volumes will deal with issues in literature, art, the sciences, philosophy or economics; others will address the intersection between the written word, the visual and decorative arts, architecture, and music . Many scholars are now working on the cultural matrix out of which these forms emerge, and recent critical thinking has shown how important was the prevailing economic, political, scientific, and philosophical climate in creating the appropriate conditions for artistic production . Some volumes focus on specific writers and texts, others deal with the connection between writing and the broader cultural horizon . All will contribute significantly to the widening sphere of nineteenth-century literary studies .

Philology An International Journal on the Evolution of Languages, Cultures and Texts General Editor: Francesco Benozzo
1 issue per year ISSN: 2297-2625 Annual subscription: Print: CHF 59 .– / €D 52 .– / €A 54 .– / € 49 .– / £ 39 .– / US-$ 64 .–
Philology is an international peer-reviewed journal devoted to the study of human traditions as they emerge from oral, written, carved, painted, digital, performed, ancient, contemporary texts . The journal aspires to challenge and reformulate the expression of philological studies in the present day . We propose to understand the contemporary world in its multicultural complexity, and to refound philology as a rele-vant social science . To this end, we encourage constant dialogue with the methodologies of other discip-lines, including linguistics, cultural anthropology, archaeology, paleoethnology, genetics and cultural biology . Philology promotes all efforts to go beyond the traditional boundaries of our habitual fields of enquiry, with the purpose of accomplishing anti-dogmatic and unprejudiced tools for facing the challenges of contemporaneity . The journal is open to a wide variety of interdisciplinary approaches, from the study of linguistic evolution to literary interpretation, from textual criticism to the investigation of texts and ethnotexts, from etymological reconstructions to the cognitive analyses of archaeological facies . Philo-logical problems exist in the grammar of signs inscribed on a prehistoric stone or a shamanic drum no less than they do in the transmission of a text from one old manuscript to another .

T
anz bewegt sich in einem Spannungsfeld formaler Gegensätze: Tanzen impliziert sowohl Regelhaftigkeit als auch Improvisation – Regulierung und Disziplinierung zeichnen ihn ebenso aus wie Schwindel und Ekstase . Auch die Beziehung zwischen Tanz und Literatur wird von einer solchen Doppelung bestimmt, indem sie mit einer hermeneutischen Auseinandersetzung von Festschreibung und Entgrenzung von Sinn korrespondiert . Dabei verweist der Tanz stets auf sein bestimmendes Element: die Körperlichkeit . Im Begriff «Choreographie» finden sich Tanz und Schrift durch choros und graphein wesentlich miteinander verbunden . Mit seinem komparatistischen Anliegen widmet sich der vorliegende Band von Variations nicht nur der Vergleichbarkeit von Tanz und poetischer Schrift, sondern vor allem auch Fragen der Übersetzbarkeit: Wie schreibt sich Tanz in Literatur ein, wie vollzieht sich Schrift tänzerisch? INHALT: Miriam Fischer-Geboers: Philosophie des Tanzes . Stéphane Mallarmés und Paul Valérys Ästhetik(en) des Performativen • Rita Rieger : L’ Âme et la Danse : Littérature et danse comme événement d’entre-espace • Georges Felten: (Um-)Wendung .
