Literature & Literary StudiesDecember 2010In Strange Countries: Middle English Literature and its Afterlife
Essays in memory of J. J. Anderson
by Anke Bernau, David Matthews
These essays by senior scholars in medieval studies celebrate the career of J.J. Anderson, editor, critic, and co-founder of the Manchester Medieval Literature and Culture series, who taught in medieval studies at the University of Manchester for forty years. The essays are rooted in medieval literature but frequently range beyond the confines of the Middle Ages. They reflect the breadth of Anderson's own scholarly interests, especially in drama and Arthurian literature. There is a particular focus on Sir Gawain and the Green Knight and Pearl, poems which preoccupied him throughout his scholarly life. There are also new reconsiderations of La?amon's Brut, Mirk's Festial, the Passion plays, and the manuscripts of the Pore Caitif. Moving beyond the traditional purview of medieval literature, several contributors trace the afterlives of medieval themes in later literature. These essays include a consideration of the twinned trajectories of the medieval heroes Robin Hood and King Arthur from medieval literature to modern television, a comparison of La?amon's Brut and Tennyson's Idylls of the King, and a recreation of the Bishop Blase procession which took place in industrial Bradford. Contributors are Rosamund Allen, Ralph Elliott, Alexandra Johnston, Stephen Knight, Peter Meredith, Susan Powell, Gillian Rudd, Alan Shelston, and Kalpen Trivedi. ;

The Catholicism of literature in the age of the Book of Common Prayer
Poetry, plays, works, 1558-1689
by Thomas Rist
Offering a complete reading of English Literature throughout 1558-1689, this book demonstrates the continuity of Roman Catholicism in English Literature from the accession of Elizabeth I to the deposing of James II. Rist shows that poetry and plays promoted Roman Catholic ideas in a Biblicist age which established the Church of England through the Book of Common Prayer. From the very idea of literary works to chapters on the Eucharist, Purgatory, Christian worship and the Virgin Mary, Rist joins together major and minor authors of the era to present English Literature afresh. Important literary figures include William Shakespeare, Ben Jonson, Thomas Middleton, Queen Henrietta Maria, John Donne, John Dryden, Robert Herrick, Margaret Cavendish and Aphra Behn.

Sleep and its spaces in Middle English literature
Emotions, ethics, dreams
by Megan Leitch
Middle English literature is intimately concerned with sleep and the spaces in which it takes place. In the medieval English imagination, sleep is an embodied and culturally determined act. It is both performed and interpreted by characters and contemporaries, subject to a particular habitus and understood through particular hermeneutic lenses. While illuminating the intersecting medical and moral discourses by which it is shaped, sleep also sheds light on subjects in favour of which it has hitherto been overlooked: what sleep can enable (dreams and dream poetry) or what it can stand in for or supersede (desire and sex). This book argues that sleep mediates thematic concerns and questions in ways that have ethical, affective and oneiric implications. At the same time, it offers important contributions to understanding different Middle English genres: romance, dream vision, drama and fabliau.

May 1997Holocaust und Literatur
by Sem Dresden, Andreas Ecke, Gregor Seferens
"Der Autor zeigt in seinem Essay mögliche Zusammenhänge zwischen dem Dargestellten und sprachlichen oder formalen Merkmalen literarischer Texte über den Holocaust; auffällig oft entdeckt man einen Stil, der bei aller Beherrschtheit und scheinbaren Ruhe von irrsinnigen Empfindungen geprägt zu sein scheint und zerrüttet wirkt wie das Leben unter den Bedingungen des Holocaust. Der niederländische Literaturwissenschaftler Sem Dresden schildert die Bedingungen, unter denen in Ghettos und Lagern geschrieben wurde; er beschreibt die Wirkung dieser Zeugnisse und der späteren Literatur des Holocaust auf Leser, die Gefühle der Schuld und Scham, die auch die Überlebenden kennen, die Fragwürdigkeit des Erfolgs mancher Werke. In drei aufeinanderfolgenden Kapiteln legt Dresden dar, daß das Thema der Verfolgung und Vernichtung es unmöglich macht, herkömmliche Kriterien der Beurteilung von Literatur anzuwenden."

February 1995Die Literatur der Angst
Zur Geschichte der Phantastik
by H. P. Lovecraft, Michael Koseler, Franz Rottensteiner
1927 erschien seine Studie Supernatural Horror in Literature, die nach wie vor als eine der besten literarhistorischen Hinführungen in die Phantastik gelten kann. Die kompakte und kenntnisreiche Darstellung zeichnet die Entwicklung des Genres von den Anfängen des »gotischen« Romans im 18. Jahrhundert bis zu den modernen Meistern der Gruselliteratur wie Arthur Machen, M. R. James und Algernon Blackwood nach.

Literature & Literary StudiesOctober 2012Art and Literature of the Second Empire
by David Baguley
This volume explores the characteristics of the art and literature of the Second Empire in France; it examines the attitudes and positioning of artists and writers of the period in relation to a regime of dubious legitimacy, and the ways in which that regime exploited to its advantage the artistic capital available to it. ;
