Stefan Zweig was the only important German writer who chose Brazil for his exile in the 1940s. Before he committed suicide in Brazil, he wrote the frequently cited and more frequently criticized book in which Brazil is called the land of the future. But in Brazil he also finished another book, 'Die Welt von Gestern', a book of memories, an account of the world from which Zweig came, a work of historic, cultural and political relevance, which was immediately published in Spanish (Argentine) and Portuguese (Brazilian) translations. When compared with the German original, these translations contain significant cuts and modifications, which can be understood as interventions of some kind of censorship, and which are prejudicial to the political brisance of the book.
Das Exil war sein Schicksal. Davon ist er zeit seines Lebens nicht losgekommen. Hans Sahl, aus Dresden gebürtig, gehörte zu jenen brillanten Intellektuellen, die bereits im geistigen Leben der Weimarer Republik eine Rolle spielten, vor den Nazis fliehen mußten und als ungeliebte Heimkehrer in der Bundesrepublik lange vergessen blieben. Erst in seinen letzten Lebensjahren, die der fast erblindete Autor in Tübingen verbrachte, wurde er mit Preisen überschüttet, wurden seine Gedichte und Romane neuaufgelegt. “Wir sind die Letzten“, hieß eine Gedichtsammlung, die 1941 erschien, in der sich dieser „Trödler des Unbegreiflichen“, wie er sich nannte, als Moralist und Wahrheitsfanatiker von hohen Graden zu erkennen gab.
This paper deals with the image of Spain and how it is misrepresented in the German historical narratives written during the exile period. This misrepresentation is due on the one hand to the writers' lack of knowledge of the historical context in which their works were set and on the other hand to the individual motivation of the authors themselves. Through an examination of the two novels which Lion Feuchtwanger set in Spain, "Die Jüdin von Toledo" and "Goya", this article will try to analyse how in both cases the Spanish context offered the author the perfect frame to build the plot and the scenes and relate it to the historical moment Germany was experiencing. Furthermore, literary images and motifs will also be taken into consideration in order to prove how the reality of Spain in two very particular moments of its history was distorted in both novels.
This paper presents some of the major aspects of the history of German exile after 1933 and the history of the exile of German-speaking writers and intellectuals in Brazil. The second part of the title is focused on the works of exile written by Ulrich Becher and Hugo Simon in Brazil.
Karl Lieblichs Lebengeschichte ist die eines weitgehend vergessenen, deutsch-jüdischen Dichters, der das nationalsozialistische Deutschland verließ, um ins brasilianische Exil zu gehen, und nach dem Krieg nach Deutschland zurückkehrte. Dieser Artikel setzt sich das Ziel, sein Leben nachzuzeichnen, seine literarischen und kulturphilosophischen Werke zu analysieren und in die Zeit einzubetten.
This essay considers the present state of U.S. scholarship on German exile Literature, focusing on the recent move from a purely literary toward a social and cultural perspective. This move becomes evident in research projects on refugee children as well as in the growing interest for women in exile. The article presents the abundant research opportunities in the U.S., but mentions also voices of frustration and fatigue. Perhaps the generational replacement among North-American Germanists contributes to bring forth a different attitude toward the subject of literary exile. In view of political shifts and technological changes, some reorientation in literary exile studies may be inevitable.
Der Aufsatz nimmt die literarisch-publizistischen Lebenswelten der österreichischen Exilanten Leopold von Andrian, Paul Frischauer und Otto Maria Carpeaux in den Blick. Sie hatten ähnliche politische Sozialisationen im Österreich der Zwischenkriegszeit, mussten aufgrund ihrer ethnischen Zugehörigkeit und ihres politischen Engagements Österreich verlassen und lebten in oder nahe Rio de Janeiro. Was Carpeaux, Frischauer und Andrian von Tausenden anderer Flüchtlinge unterschied, waren ihr Status und ihre politischen Kontakte. Sie waren materiell privilegierter, der harte Überlebenskampf vieler anderer blieb ihnen erspart; trotzdem waren sie Vertriebene und Heimatlose. Frischauer und Andrian kehrten nach dem Ende des Zweiten Weltkriegs über Umwege in ihre Heimatländer zurück, Carpeaux blieb, wurde zum Brasilianer und hinterließ ein starkes Vermächtnis. Dieser Aufsatz beleuchtet ihre Haltung, ihre Rollen und Arbeiten im brasilianischen Exil kritisch und analytisch. Er bietet und verknüpft drei biographische Erzählungen. Während der Monarchist Leopold von Andrian an der Restauration der Habsburgermonarchie festhielt, öffnete sich der jüngere, opportunistische Flüchtling Paul Frischauer als Biograph des Diktators Vargas Türen zur Macht. Otto Maria Carpeaux hingegen, der wie Andrian ein Theoretiker des autoritären österreichischen Ständestaats gewesen war, transformierte sich zum Brasilianer, zum heimischen Literaturpapst und transatlantischen Brückenbauer.
1881 Viyana doğumlu olan Stefan Zweig, savaş ortamını bizzat yaşamış ve eserlerinde daima savaş karşıtı bir tutum sergilemiştir. Zweig'ın tek isteği, yaşanılan savaş sonrasında, insanların huzuru ve barışı yakalamasıdır. 1938-1942 yılları arasında Brezilya'da sürgündeyken kaleme aldığı "Satranç" adlı son eseri de göstermek istediği değerler açısından büyük bir öneme sahiptir. Zweig, insan ruhunun derinliklerine inerek, betimlemelerle ve benzetmelerle Nazizm'in/ Nazi Almanya'sının ülke ve insanlar üzerinde bıraktığı sosyal ve psikolojik etkileri yansıtmaya çalışır. Savaşın insanlığı getirdiği noktada, yazarın intiharından önce bıraktığı bir veda mektubu niteliği taşıyan bu eserde, Hitler iktidarının toplama kamplarının haricinde aydınlar için kullandığı başka bir yönteme dikkat çekilir. Zweig'e göre kullanılan bu yöntem, belki de toplama kamplarındaki insanların yaşadıklarından bile daha ağır bir zulümdür.
Alman Edebiyatı'nda önemli bir yere sahip olan Stefan Zweig, "Satranç" adlı eserinde, satranç oyunu üzerinden, yaşanılan tüm olumsuzluklara rağmen savaş döneminde bireylerin ayakta kalma/ var olmaya çalışma süreçlerini aktarır. Otobiyografik özellik gösteren eserde, savaş döneminde Naziler tarafından tutuklandıktan sonra yersiz-yurtsuzluğa mahkûm edilen bir karakterle, dünya satranç şampiyonu olan bir karakterin satranç mücadelesi ele alınır. 20. yüzyılın acımasızlığı gözler önüne serilirken, tarihsel olayların bıraktığı izlere ve o izlerle yaşamaya çalışmanın ne demek olduğuna yakından tanık olmak mümkündür. Bu çalışmada, eserden hareketle (metne bağlı/werkimmanent yaklaşımla) Nasyonal Sosyalizmin toplumda ve insanlar üzerinde bıraktığı izler, yarattığı yıkımlar ve Nasyonal Sosyalizm dönemi aktarılmaya çalışılmıştır.
During the 1930s through the 1940s and into the 1950s, Spanish and German presentations in opposition to ardent nationalism share strikingly common aesthetic and ideological strategies supporting claims to a transnational, international space. Specific examples of common geography, identity and language in German and Spanish presentations (theater, short stories, reports, essays, speeches and poetry) in Spain and Latin America by German (Regler, Renn, Uhse), Spanish (J. Bergamin, R. Alberti, M. Aub) and Latin American (D. Rivera, P. Neruda, C. Vallejo) intellectuals, artists and activists during the 1930s through the 1950s will be explored. For example, German-speaking audiences and artists in Spain and Mexico shared a common lived and aesthetic space as Spanish-speaking audiences and artists. Further, many German presentations were translated into Spanish and visa versa. Here, presentations in “Das Wort” and “El Mono Azul” in Spain as well as “Freies Deutschland/Alemania libre” in Mexico will be referenced in developing a sense of re-definition of the concept of ‘foreign’ and ‘commonness’ beyond simply nationality (tradition, history and geography) and language. The impetus for an alternative, international and even revolutionary ‘space’ (as defined by Henri Lefebvre in The Production of Space) was produced in and through common Spanish and German strategies and realizations in their presentations. This Spanish-German example from the early/mid-part of the 20th century is a significant contribution to contemporary interdisciplinary discussions in the 21st century.
There are many aspects of Haas' life and experiences in India which deserve greater attention. I would like to refer briefly only to his attempts as a litterateur to come to terms with 'India' as presented in his autobiographical recollection and to some comparative cultural reflections in his essays. Like all reconstructions his autobiographical recollection of India is also a construct in which the site of India as a place of exile is justified by an achieved awareness between conscious individual choice and inevitability. An individual acts out a personal history, the prefiguration of which he only becomes aware of in the form of a subsequent epiphanic realization. Given Haas' literary background, it is not surprising that this is articulated through a literary association.
