The present interview is rooted in the diverse aspects of interculturalism and of Romanian-German literary convergence – landmarks of both the works of fiction and non-fiction of the German author hailing from Sibiu. Special emphasis is placed upon the collection of essays Einen Halt suchen (En. In search of stability) and upon its translations from the Romanian into German, the main scope of the interview being to highlight the author’s opinions about the aforementioned aspects.
The present study researches the literary materializations of the Heimat visions as they emerge from Herta Müller’s Atemschaukel and Aglaja Veteranyi’s Warum das Kind in der Polenta kocht. The Heimat concepts are narratologically constructed both as Erinnerungsräume and as imaginary geographies. Usage of these notions will be made according to the definitions of Aleida Assmann respectively Doris Bachmann-Medick. Heimat is seen as a space from the past, which is projected with the force of the memories in the present having an imaginary geography, that can be articulated on three aspects associated with this concept: shelter, food and possessions.
Two Romanian authors, Nora Iuga and Carmen Francesca Banciu have published their impressions about the German capital Berlin. Nora Iuga stayed there twice for a limited period of time (in 2000 and in 2010), whereas Carmen Francesca Banciu decided to live in Berlin after her scholarship there ended in 1991. This is why Carmen Francesca Banciu’s writing changed together with the changing city, which was then under construction not only literally but also in a figurative way integrating new influences due to the opening of Eastern Europe after the end of its isolation during the Cold War. She is one of those new elements which reshape Berlin adding new and different perspectives to its cultural life. Banciu publishes her impressions in Berlin ist mein Paris. Nora Iuga, on the other hand, remains nothing but a visitor. Her ideas about the City and about the Germans in general change a lot during her stays in Berlin. In the end, she leaves for Bucharest with new impressions, which are released in Romania in her book Berlinul meu e un monolog.

Who has any doubt nowadays that our past is the key to our present, and by articulating this past, verbalizing it to a therapist, we can divest ourselves of its debilitating weight? Memory liberates, narration heals, history redeems […]. […] to remember is to heal. Heal from what? From the amnesia that 'dissociates' the psyche, from the forgetting that breaks the continuity of my history and therefore keeps me from being my self. Ever since (and because of) Anna O.'s miraculous cure, forgetting has ceased to be a simple lapse of memory […].
Soll die in Erzählung gegossene Erinnerung aber nicht nur befreiende, sondern gar heilende und erlösende Kräfte besitzen, muß Vergessen von der Gedächtnislücke (lapse of memory) zum Sündenfall überhöht werden. Die Wiener Jüdin Bertha Pappenheim (1859-1936), von Freud und Breuer in den 1895 publizierten "Studien über Hysterie" sorgsam unter dem Decknamen Anna O. verborgen, gilt Mikkel Borch-Jacobsen daher sowohl als Kronzeugin für die das 20. Jahrhundert beherrschende Macht der Erinnerung wie auch für die Verwissenschaftlichung der Beichte durch die Psychoanalyse.
Translation exercises have always played an important role in teaching/learning foreign languages, ever since the Grammar-Translation method was developed. However, with the emergence of the communicative language teaching in the 70s which focussed on communicative competence as the ultimate goal of language learning, they were considered to be obsolete and inefficient. The present article suggests that the utility of translation – not only where teaching foreign languages is concerned, but also within the field of German studies – should be reassessed, showing that both ”pedagogical” as well as ”communicative” translation can support and improve the study of German language, literature and culture, increase students‘ awareness of both German language and their mother tongue and furthermore contribute to the enrichment of their general knowledge.
Im Geleitwort zu Ralph Stöwers Bonner Dissertation von 2009 ‚Erich Rothacker. Sein Leben und seine Wissenschaft vom Menschen‘ erklärt der Psychologie-Historiker Georg Rudinger über den Stand der Rothacker-Forschung: "Was in Sachen Rothacker vor allem zu tun bleibt, ist eine intensivere Geschichte seiner Rezeption"; und er fügt folgende These hinzu: "Die Geschichte der Nichtrezeption ist hier ähnlich interessant wie die der Rezeption." Mein Beitrag greift diese zweite Aussage auf und zeigt erstens, inwiefern tatsächlich von einer Nichtrezeption Rothackers gesprochen werden kann, und zweitens, was diese Nichtrezeption über das deutsche theoretische Feld der unmittelbaren Nachkriegszeit und über die Position Rothackers innerhalb desselben offenbart.
The paper discusses the request of the Jewish Middle/ Middle-East-European immigrants for images, impressions, feelings and memories from their native lands, which Aaron Lebedeff masterfully captured in his American-Jewish musicals. The paper focuses on multiculturalism and multilingualism in overlapping regions of extended cultural areas, particularly in territories along the borders of Middle/Middle-East-European states, which don’t form any abrupt cultural barriers. Using the example of a in our time in Jewish milieus worldwide frequently played quadrilingual song from Aaron Lebedeff about Romania (with the German translation of the complete version from 1925), the paper conveys the role of Yiddish as a major dialect of the German as a worldwide carrier of this language as well.
This paper proposes to analyse contrastively the phraseological expressions which include proper names in German and Romanian languages and also, to interpret them as cultural elements that generate problems when trying to translate them. It is intended to establish equivalence relations between the onimical expressions of the two languages, suggesting, where it will be the case, the translation strategies.
