Nominiert für die Hotlist 2014 Wien, 1954. Die harten Nachkriegsjahre sind vorbei, Wiederaufbau und wirtschaftlicher Aufschwung prägen die Zeit. Doch nicht jeder findet Halt in einer Gesellschaft, die versucht, Krieg und Gewalt in die Vergangenheit abzuschieben. Lydia, Dragan und Heinrich gehören zu den Entwurzelten, die in einem Schuppen hausen und - jeder für sich - ein anderes Bild der Nachkriegsgesellschaft skizzieren. Der Serbe Dragan kämpft um eine Art Normalität, die er nicht findet. Lydia verliert sich in der Hoffnung, ihr Verlobter würde eines Tages aus der Kriegsgefangenschaft zurückkehren. Heinrich, der "Watschenmann", hat sich eine eigene Gedankenwelt zurecht gelegt. Er zieht durch die Straßen und provoziert Passanten, ihn zu schlagen. Physische und verbale Hiebe steckt er ein, um den "Kriegswurm" freizulegen, der sich immer noch tief in den Menschen verbirgt. Heinrich entzieht sich Schmerz und Demütigung, indem er an ein Reptil oder einen Raben denkt, "an einen, der sich gegen den Wind stemmt." Mit ungeheurer Sprachwucht erzählt dieser Roman von der ambivalenten Beziehung dreier Menschen, die sich Stabilität und Halt geben, die sich schlagen und beleidigen, die an der Hoffnung festhalten. Karin Peschka fällt aus dem Rahmen der jüngsten deutschen Literatur. (Anton Thuswaldner, Salzburger Nachrichten)

With the fall of the Berlin Wall and the shifting of American foreign policy away from "old" Europe, long-established patterns of interaction between Germany and the U.S. have come under review. Although seemingly disconnected from the cultural and intellectual world, political developments were not without their influence on the humanities and their curricula during the past century. In retrospect, we can speak of the many different roles Germany has played in American eyes. The Many Faces of Germany seeks to acknowledge the importance of those incarnations for the study of German culture and history on both sides of the Atlantic. One of the major questions raised by the contributors is whether the transformations in the transatlantic dynamics and in the importance of Germany for the U.S. have had a major influence on the study of things German in the U.S. internally. The volume gathers together leading voices of the older and younger generations of social historians, literary scholars, film critics, and cultural historians.

New essays examine 20th-c. Austrian literature in relation to history, politics, and popular culture. 20th-century Austrian literature boasts many outstanding writers: Schnitzler, Musil, Rilke, Kraus, Celan, Canetti, Bernhard, Jelinek. These and others feature in broader accounts of German literature, but it is desirable to see how the Austrian literary scene -- and Austrian society itself -- shaped their writing. This volume thus surveys Austrian writers of drama, prose fiction, and lyric poetry; relates them to the distinctive history of modern Austria, a democratic republic that was overtaken by civil war and authoritarian rule, absorbed into Nazi Germany, and re-established as a neutral state; and examines their response to controversial events such as the collusion with Nazism, the Waldheim affair, and the rise of Haider and the extreme right. In addition to confronting controversy in the relations between literature, history, and politics, the volume examines popular culture in line with current trends. Contributors: Judith Beniston, Janet Stewart, Andrew Barker, Murray Hall, Anthony Bushell, Dagmar Lorenz, Juliane Vogel, Jonathan Long, Joseph McVeigh, Allyson Fiddler. Katrin Kohl is Lecturer in German and a Fellow of Jesus College, and Ritchie Robertson is Taylor Professor of German Language and Literature and a Fellow of The Queen's College, both at the University of Oxford.

Reinhold Wagnleitner argues that cultural propaganda played an enormous part in integrating Austrians and other Europeans into the American sphere during the Cold War. In Coca-Colonization and the Cold War, he shows that 'Americanization' was the result not only of market forces and consumerism but also of systematic planning on the part of the United States. Wagnleitner traces the intimate relationship between the political and economic reconstruction of a democratic Austria and the parallel process of cultural assimilation. Initially, U.S. cultural programs had been developed to impress Europeans with the achievements of American high culture. However, popular culture was more readily accepted, at least among the young, who were the primary target group of the propaganda campaign. The prevalence of Coca-Cola and rock 'n' roll are just two examples addressed by Wagnleitner. Soon, the cultural hegemony of the United States became visible in nearly all quarters of Austrian life: the press, advertising, comics, literature, education, radio, music, theater, and fashion. Hollywood proved particularly effective in spreading American cultural ideals. For Europeans, says Wagnleitner, the result was a second discovery of America. This book is a translation of the Austrian edition, published in 1991, which won the Ludwig Jedlicka Memorial Prize.

Tauchen Sie ein in den Wortschatz der österreichischen Alltagssprache! Hier werden mehr als 2.500 Wörter und Redewendungen vorgestellt: von "jemanden buckelkraxen tragen" bis "ein Sprung in der Marille", von "das Amtskappl aufhaben" bis "in den Guglhupf kommen". Mit amüsanten Beispielen aus Schlagertexten, Kabarettprogrammen und Reden von Politikern. Und wenn Sie wissen wollen, woher ein bestimmtes Wort kommt - auch darüber gibt dieses Wörterbuch Auskunft. So stammt "Kramadanzen" aus der Ritterzeit, "Tschusch" war ursprünglich gar kein Schimpfwort und "Nudelaug" ist von Mundl Sackbauer nicht erfunden, sondern nur verbreitet worden. Gleichermaßen sachlich wie unterhaltsam ist dieses Buch das ultimative Nachschlagewerk für Einheimische und "Zuagroaste" - schlichtweg für jeden, der die lebendige, authentische Sprache Österreichs kennenlernen will.
