        Nostalgia

        by Mircea Cărtărescu, Gerhardt Csejka

        Nostalgia, das geniale Prosadebüt von Mircea Cartarescu, erzählt von Kindheit und Jugend im Bukarest der sechziger und siebziger Jahre. Im Licht der Erinnerung, die aus den Empfindungen aller Sinne aufersteht, gewinnen die Schauplätze eine überwältigende Präsenz. Da ist das zerklüftete, morastige Gelände hinter dem Wohnblock am Stefan-cel-Mare Boulevard, wo der geheimnisvolle Knabe Mendebilus eine ganze Kinderbande mit somnambuler Akrobatik und tiefsinnigen Geschichten in Bann schlägt. Oder der glitschige unterirdische Tunnel, durch den Gina und Andrei ins Naturhistorische Museum geraten, wo sie ihre erste Liebesnacht erleben. Schließlich der bizarre, melancholische Turm am Stadtrand und seine riesenhaften Bewohner. Zu Recht hat der Spiegel Mircea Cartarescu einen „Proust des Plattenbaus“ genannt. Die unerhörte Intensität, mit der er die Dinge und Geschöpfe der äußeren Welt schildert, gibt ihnen die magische, mystische Aura zurück. Meisterhaft versteht er es, die aus dem Traum, dem Wahnsinn und der poetischen Ekstase geborenen Bilder auf die Bühne unserer vermeintlich festgefügten Wirklichkeit zu schieben.

        Spanish visual culture

        Cinema, television, internet

        by Paul Julian Smith, Susan Williams

        This book is the first to explore three visual media in contemporary Spain: cinema, television and the internet. It also examines cultural products in each of these media in terms of three vital themes: emotion, location and nostalgia. The first two chapters focus on emotion. They analyze the 'emotional imperative' in a recent Almodóvar feature film and in Spanish television's top-rated period drama, and investigate the politics of affect in TV drama in the last decade. The next pair of chapters deal with location. They use cultural geography to re-read contradictory accounts of the movida (the post-Franco cultural boom) and examine an attempt to anchor a US-derived genre (the youth movie) in the urban landscape of Madrid. The fifth and sixth chapters introduce the theme of location into nostalgia. They treat the unique cases of a successful Spanish heritage movie and a contemporary Spanish thriller remade in Hollywood. The peunultimate chapter investigates electronic artists and the virtual universe, and the book ends with a look at the implications of Hispano-Mexican co-productions and the interconnectedness of economic and aesthetic cultural forms. ;

        Material masculinities

        Men and goods in eighteenth-century England

        by Ben Jackson

        Material Masculinities examines the material and consumer practices of over 1000 men from the middling and upper ranks of eighteenth-century society, c.1650-1850. It draws upon evidence from over 35 archives and museum collections to detail how material objects were integral for men in forming identities and shaping experiences. For men of all social ranks, ages, and geographic locations, material knowledge was imperative for masculine social identities to operate in a commercial society. Before the centralised factory and widespread mass-produced goods, men personalised and repaired their goods; products were shaped by men's attitudes and concerns. Objects were tools in men's identity formation and the exercise of social and gendered power. There was a reciprocal relationship between men and goods in this period; men were active agents of material and commercial change driving product and aesthetic innovation.

        British Women Modernists and the National Imaginary

        by Jane Garrity

        Jane Garrity shows how four British women modernists - Dorothy Richardson, Sylvia Townsend Warner, Mary Butts and Virginia Woolf - used experimental literary techniques in order to situate themselves as national subjects. Reading literary texts through the lens of material culture, this book makes a major contribution to the new modernist studies by arguing that women's imaginative work is inseparable from their ambivalent and complicated relation to Britain's imperial history. Drawing on extensive archival research, Garrity takes as her point of departure the ubiquitous maternal and racial link to national identification during the interwar period. Each chapter foregrounds a different range of cultural developments that coincided with the rise of modernism, such as emerging visual techniques, the revival of British neo-medievalism, ethnographic work on primitive mysticism, and nostalgia for English ruralism. By locating both canonical and non-canonical works of female literary modernism within broader cultural discourses, Garrity demonstrates the intersections among nationalism, imperialism, gender and sexuality in the construction of English national culture.

        Max Frisch. Citoyen

        by Max Frisch, Matthias Gunten

        »Wir riefen Gastarbeiter, und es kamen Menschen.« Mit Sätzen wie diesem griff Max Frisch immer wieder in das öffentliche Leben der Schweiz ein. Als politischer Intellektueller war er auch in anderen Ländern ein gefragter Gesprächspartner: Er diskutierte mit Henry Kissinger über den Krieg in Vietnam, war 1977 in der Nacht, in der die »Landshut« gestürmt wurde, bei Helmut Schmidt in Bonn. Dem Citoyen, dem engagierten Bürger Max Frisch hat Matthias von Gunten sein Porträt gewidmet. Zu Wort kommt, neben Kissinger und Schmidt sowie Schriftstellerkollegen wie Christa Wolf, Günter Grass und Peter Bichsel, auch der Autor Max Frisch selbst – seine Tagebucheinträge und Reden werden gelesen von Reto Hänny. »Solche Stimmen fehlen heute in der Schweiz«, sagte von Gunten dazu der Neuen Zürcher Zeitung. Man möchte ergänzen: und anderswo.

        Writing power

        Intellectuals, legitimacy, and the making of knowledge

        by Sarah Victoria Alexandra Burton

        Writing power radically rethinks the place of the canon and canonicity as objects and concepts in contemporary academia and the everyday intellectual practices of academics. It is distinctive in its demonstration of how academics' engagements with canons shape their writing practices but also how scholars' writing practices, spaces, proclivities, and desires shape the canon and changing ideas of value in canonicity. The book thinks through frequently discussed problems of legitimacy and knowledge production from fresh perspectives of lived experience and the everyday to offer new insights into the politics of knowledge in contemporary social sciences.

        British culture after empire

        Race, decolonisation and migration since 1945

        by Josh Doble, Liam Liburd, Emma Parker

        British culture after Empire is the first collection of its kind to explore the intertwined social, cultural and political aftermath of empire in Britain from 1945 up to and beyond the Brexit referendum of 2016, combining approaches from the fields of history, English and cultural studies. Against those who would deny, downplay or attempt to forget Britain's imperial legacy, the various contributions expose and explore how the British Empire and the consequences of its end continue to shape Britain at the local, national and international level. As an important and urgent intervention in a field of increasing relevance within and beyond the academy, the book offers fresh perspectives on the colonial hangovers in post-colonial Britain from up-and-coming as well as established scholars.

        Why women won't be driven out of the Catholic Church

        by Elisabeth Zoll (ed.)

        — The book beyond the synodal path — Leaving is not an option for the authors of this book — 17 credible examples of consistency and daring Can the Catholic Church still be saved? There have been huge numbers of resignations; the reasons for them are well known. And yet! Committed Catholics from the worlds of politics, business, culture and society oppose this. They share how, despite their disappointments, even their anger, they are still able to find their way in the Church, walking tall and with inner freedom. These are encouraging examples of decidedly critical women who assert themselves – and who are not going anywhere: "Now, more than ever before, we need women – and men – who are prepared to confess their faith with confidence." Not out of nostalgia or any diffuse incense feelings, but out of conviction, because their faith means a lot to them.

        Soviet materialities

        Socialist things, environments and affects

        by Mollie Arbuthnot, Christianna Bonin, Gabriella Ferrari

        Soviet materialities explores how material transforms our understanding of Soviet culture, from the textures of domestic space in 1960s apartment blocks to Gulag labour on the Moscow canal, and from avant-garde literary theory in the 1920s to conceptual art under perestroika. It starts from the ethos that the material world shapes people and society. Taking a material approach-or a range of material approaches-can therefore illuminate aspects of the cultural production and lived experiences of Soviet socialism that are not reflected in other kinds of historical records. This edited volume brings cutting-edge research by emerging scholars together with the established voices who have broken the ground in this sub-field over the last twenty years and promises to make a major intervention in the study of Soviet history and culture.

        Negotiating the auteur

        Dominique Cabrera, Noémie Lvovsky, Laetitia Masson and Marion Vernoux

        by Julia Dobson, Diana Holmes, Robert Ingram

        This book provides the first detailed analysis of the work of four important contemporary directors whose work falls between the reductive labels of 'auteur cinema' and 'popular cinema'. Their work is contextualised within this timely investigation into the shifting relationship between the privileged status of the auteur and questions of genre, gender and cinematic production in France today. This important contribution to understanding the shifting landscapes of contemporary French film identifies an essential intermediacy in the films of these directors, which works to undo a series of dominant oppositions, generic template and contestation, public collectivity and personal intimacy, to offer a new perspective on the location of the political in contemporary French cinema. The four chapters provide detailed critical analysis of films by Dominique Cabrera, Laetitia Masson, Noémie Lvovsky and Marion Vernoux, and present common thread including the possible construction of social intimacy, the political demystification of romance narratives and the role of nostalgia, to argue that their work uses popular genres in order to challenge dominant cultural representation that resonates beyond the immediate parameters of contemporary French cinema. This book will be of interest to researchers working in French and European cinema, to students of Film Studies and French and Francophone Studies, and to film enthusiasts. ;
