Als methodisches Rüstzeug bieten sich im Falle des hier verfolgten Themas vier Zugänge an: Erstens eine ideengeschichtliche Rekonstruktion der jüdischen Neuromantik, gegliedert nach verschiedenen Phasen (Vorgeschichte, zionistische Auslegung, ästhetische Kontroversen). Zweitens ein kulturwissenschaftlich ausgerichteter Konstellationsforschungsansatz. [...] Drittens bietet sich das Thema jüdische Neuromantik geradezu dafür an, die jüngst im englisch-amerikanischen Theoriefeld wieder aufgegriffenen methodischen Überlegungen zu kulturwissenschaftlich ausgerichteten "translation studies" einzubeziehen; [...] Und schließlich erscheint eine begriffliche Differenzierung nützlich. Im Blick auf die kulturpolitisch ausgerichtete zionistische Bewegung dürfte es angemessen sein, von einer "Wiederaufnahme" romantischer Vorgaben aus der Zeit um 1800 zu sprechen. Der zeitgenössische kulturpoetisch-ästhetische Versuch einer genaueren Charakterisierung neuromantischer Gattungen und Schreibweisen dürfte allerdings treffsicherer mit dem Begriff "gesteigerte Wiederkehr" umschrieben werden können.
Undoubtedly, the episode referring to the ,Minnegrotteʼ contains the most different interpretative approaches from the entire Tristan narrative. It is nevertheless possible that many motives and methods of procedure specific to various traditions (antique and Christian, in particular) merge into one unity, in order to legitimize the extramarital relationship between Tristan and Isolde in a secluded space which subordinates itself to a completely different view of the world. When contemplating the parallelization to the sacred love, Gottfried implies that the lovers find themselves in a place, which serves them as shelter, and within this place only the harmony generated by love may prevail. This creates an alternative reality in the Minnegrotte, where the transition between Marke’s court and the ,Lustortʼ can be observed. Providing a detailed description of the latter (with the main focus on the food miracle and the autobiographical excursus), the author has succeeded in bringing together the conceptual topological features of the locus amoenus, the ,love cathedralʼ, and the paradisus, in order to include the real ,minneʼ in the memoria.
Auf Wolke Siebenbürgen … : eine Kindheit voller Gefahren. Die „Deportation“ und Rettung der Mutter
(2017)
Transylvania is a region that frequently appears in the texts of the German speaking writers from Romania. Walther Gottfried Seidner‘s story makes no exception. In the center is the narrator, a kindergarten child, who explores the history of Europe experienced from a subjective point of view. His attention is directed especially to the mother, who is in danger of being deported to the Soviet Union. The red thread of the narrative is interrupted by retrospectives, which complete the image of Transylvania at the beginning of the year 1945. This analysis refers to several aspects within the original text: the Cibin River and its significance to the community of Sibiu, the Christian cross and the swastika, the German National Socialism and the Communism, the deportation of the German minority.
It is well known that the media has strongly shaped the life of the people in many respects and that it exerts a sustained influence on our value systems and ways of thinking. Thus it also shows a clear extension of the human life. By far less famously however is the fact that nowadays media is the basis for all forms of mental development. This is why the relation between the people and the media is extremely tightened. Nevertheless, this ambivalent relation offers multi-complex material for the literary inspiration. Addressing the topic of the media in the literature combines two aspects ritically: On the one hand it reflects the human behaviour compared with the media and, on the other hand, it underlines emphatically the intermedial writing itself. My speech will be dedicated to the question: how these both aspects interact with each other. The narrative text of Alfred Andersch’s Erinnerte Gestalten will serve the answers to my topic. In this three prosaic texts Andersch shows the subject of the intermedial writing from different perspectives and he discusses certain human reactions to the media.
Erwin Neustädter was a novellist and poet of the German minority in Romania, who published two novels and some poems in the period between the two World Wars. After WW II he has been inprisoned several times. I want to present in my text his report about the time in prison between 1961 and 1963. The typoscript of about 200 pages has been found after his and his wife’s death in 1995 and has been published by the family in 2015. I want to present this book to a larger audience, because it is an authentic report on the situation during the 1950s and 1960s in communist Romania, which doesn’t focus on the political aspects of detention but on the psychological ones.
Fiktion und Fakten am Beispiel Carmen Elisabeth Puchianus Prosaband "Amsel – schwarzer Vogel"
(2017)
Literary productions live in a multi-dimensional context. On the one hand, the author and his/her reality play a significant role in the creation of the text; on the other hand, the reference to reality takes place through reception, that is, in a dimension where the author and the text are powerless. I would like to research on Carmen Elisabeth Puchianu’s stories Amsel–schwarzer Vogel (München 1995) from this point of view, as some texts have triggered outrageous reactions. These can be explained to some extent as a confusion between fact and fiction as well as a rejection of new literary discourses both in the German literature in Romania and Romanian literature after the political changes in 1989.
The present contribution deals with the three most recent novels of the Romanian-born Swiss Author Catalin Dorian Florescu: Zaira [Zaira] (2008), Jacob beschließt zu lieben [Jacob Decides to Love] (2011) and Der Mann, der das Glück bringt [The Man who Brings Happiness] (2016). The author unfolds in these novels family sagas spanning centuries which make the destiny of migrants between the poles of east and west a subject of discussion. In contrast to Florescu’s three former novels the reader can detect in these family novels the tendency towards a folkloristic presentation of a multicultural ambience at the expense of an intercultural involvement in the narrative depiction.
The fulfillment of a century since the birth of writer and philologist Georg Scherg (1917-2002) is a good opportunity to recall his life and work. Born in Brasov, Scherg arrived in Sibiu only accidentally. Only later in his life he stated here for a longer time. He was appointed Head of the German Department at the recently established University of History and Philology in Sibiu in 1970. For two decades, until 1990, he had a fruitful activity, both as a teacher and as a prolific author and laborious translator of Romanian literature. He participates in research projects and symposiums of philological literary history, his efforts in this field being rewarded by his appointment as doctor honoris causa of the University „Lucian Blaga“ (1997). He was also involved in Sibiu’s literary life, leading for a long period of time a circle of artists attracted to
the poetic creation.
