December 2009Walter Benjamin
Lumpensammler, Engel und bucklicht Männlein Ästhetik und Politik bei Walter Benjamin
by Jean-Michel Palmier, Florent Perrier, Horst Brühmann
Jean-Michel Palmiers monumentale Studie über Walter Benjamin ist das Lebenswerk eines Gelehrten, der den zahlreichen Benjamin-Interpretationen nicht eine neue hinzufügt, sondern schlicht den Schlüssel zum Verständnis dieses enigmatischen Autors liefert. Minutiös zeichnet Palmier den philosophischen, politischen und ästhetischen Denkweg Benjamins nach und beseitigt zahlreiche Mißverständnisse und Klischees, etwa das des »marxistischen Rabbiners«, der die Alternative zwischen historischem Materialismus und Theologie in ein unauflösliches Dilemma verwandelt. Vor allem aber schließt Palmier die Lücken einer oft simplifizierenden und immer wieder um dieselben Themen kreisenden Rezeption. Der Lumpensammler, der Engel und das »bucklicht Männlein« werden so zu Grundfiguren einer philosophischen Erzählung, die nicht hagiographisch, sondern systematisch die Komplexität von Benjamins Denken erschließt. Ein Standardwerk.

Literature & Literary StudiesSeptember 2025Love and anti-Judaism in medieval English romance
Typologies of violence and desire
by Hope Doherty-Harrison
Love and anti-Judaism is a new examination of medieval romance for the questions it poses of the most significant events in Christian history. Providing new readings of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, Sir Orfeo, Sir Gowther and Sir Amadace, the book argues that romance explores depictions of love-and the sacrifices it may necessitate-in the Hebrew Bible, especially where they do not easily fit into interpretations asserting that this history must prefigure Christ and the crucifixion. An examination of anti-Judaism as a discourse of violence and desire that could be turned inwardly to expose the irresolution in Christianity, this book will provoke new investigations into the religious crises of medieval romance.

Literature & Literary StudiesMay 2000Henry V
by James Loehlin
This study examines the profound changes that twentieth-century performance has wrought on Shakespeare's complex drama of war and politics. What was accepted at the turn of the century as a patriotic celebration of a national hero has emerged in the modern theatre as a dark and troubling analysis of the causes and costs of war. The book details the theatrical innovations and political insights that have turned one of Shakespeare's most traditional-bound plays into one of his most popular and provocative. Henry V gives details analyses of several important modern productions. Beginning with a consideration of the play's political significance in Elizabethan London, the book goes on the reveal its subsequent reinvention, both as patriotic pageant and anti-war manifesto. Individual chapters consider important productions by the Royal Shakespeare Company, and other British and North American companies, as well as the landmark film versions. A compelling account of the theatrical revolution that has transformed one of Shakespeare's most challenging plays. ;
