Der vorliegende Beitrag konzentriert sich nicht auf die interessanten, etwas späteren Vorbilder einer italienischen 'hybriden' Rezeption des Gotischen bzw. Phantastischen, die gleichzeitig einer neuen Sensibilität bzw. Ästhetik den Weg ebnete und die das Interesse der Forschung schon erweckte, sondern er verfolgt das Ziel, die weniger erforschten Wurzeln des Genres in Italien zu ergründen. Diese sind unerwartet in 'Fermo e Lucia', d.h. in jener unvollkommenen ersten bzw. 'Ur'-Fassung von Manzonis Prosameisterstück 'I promessi sposi' zu finden.
This article deals with the representation of motherdaughter relationships in novels by Herta Müller, Aglaja Veteranyi, Carmen Francesca Banciu and Gabriela Adamesteanu, all of them born in Romania. Herta Müller and Aglaja Veterani constantly wrote in German, while Carmen Francesca Banciu changed her language after emigrating to Germany and Gabriela Adameºteanu’s language has always been Romanian. Mother-daughter relationships are analysed in regard of female genealogy, but also considering their complexity and ambiguity. It is shown that representations of mother-daughter-relationships are depending rather on individual and psychological criteria than the author’s cultural or ethnic affiliation. Maybe a larger study, which could not be made in this article, could reveal more detailed results.
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.
"[E]s hätte vielleicht genügt zu bemerken, daß die Hölle Dantes die Vorstellung von einem Kerker übersteigert, die Beckfords hingegen die Höhlengänge eines Alptraums", fasst Borges sein Argument in den "Prólogos" zusammen. Indem Borges die beiden Höllenschilderungen ästhetisch und qualitativ voneinander abgrenzt, verweist er implizit auch auf seine eigene Höllenkonzeption, die er im Vorwort zu seiner Anthologie "Libro del Cielo y del Infierno" von 1960, die er zusammen mit Adolfo Bioy Casares herausgab, durchblicken lässt: Seit Swedenborg werde die Hölle nämlich nicht mehr als Ort, sondern als Zustand begriffen. Borges versucht keine große, theologische Wahrheit nachzuzeichnen; vielmehr sieht er die Wahrheit in der Unendlichkeit - im Kleinen, das in Summe ein unerkennbares, großes Ganzes ergibt. Die genaue Unterscheidung zwischen Beckfords und Dantes Höllenkonzeptionen dient hier beispielhaft dem Zweck, die Vielfalt dieses Ganzen sichtbar zu machen.
Der Dichter als Stifter und/ oder Anstifter : deutsch-rumänische Lesarten gegenwärtiger Lyrik
(2007)
The Romanian literature of the 18th century is witnessing a remarkable metamorphosis, whereas step by step the Enlightment’s ideas penetrate the Romanianspeaking soil and through various mechanisms replace the medieval order in society, politics and arts. In this time of the Enlightment the small popular book “Bertoldo” from the late Italian 16th century was adapted in French and then in German and through the German intermediary reached Transylvania at the end of the 18th century (Hermannstadt, 1799). In the centre of our analysis we place the concept of “cultural transfer” and that of the “cultural translation”, concepts that help us illustrate the adaptation strategies of the foreign material and the integration principles of the Enlightment’s ideals on the Romanian soil. Working with eloquent examples from the “Bertoldo”-text in a comparative manner we will try to bring to light the interaction of the poetical and ideological functions of the translations from German and its role in forming and shaping a new kind of Romanian cultural and literary sensibility.
This study intends to analyze the barely known literary personality of Carmen Sylva, the first Romanian queen. Since Carmen Sylva was a German-born princess, yet lived almost her entire life in the Romanian cultural environment, the main point of this paper is to analyze the idea of writing while being split between two different cultures. Carmen Sylva’s self-assumed role of cultural mediator is in this respect obvisouly worth mentioning. However the main question of this study lies not necessarily in the role, but rather in the place of this writer with two homelands. Did she indeed manage to become a cultural mediator or was she her entire life nothing more than an outsider?
On a close examination, the Romanian cultural space suggests the existance of a spiritual and cultural incompatibility between Romanian existential feeling and the Faustian man, endowed with the personality and character of Faustus. The Faustian character, Faustus and his literary myth have been imported in Romanian culture. Under the circumstances, this paper investigates the manner in which Faustian aspects and motives reflect in Romanian literature.
