Ende des 18. Jahrhunderts herrscht im beschaulichen Weimar eine bedrohliche Stimmung. Die Ideen der Aufklärung nagen an der Macht des Herzogs, neue Krankheiten wüten in den Straßen, die Menschen in aggressive Psychopathen verwandeln. Zur selben Zeit zerreißt die Französische Revolution Europas Gesellschaften zwischen Sympathie und Ablehnung. Dabei wären vier Genies mit außergewöhnlichen Kräften in der Lage, den Kontinent vor dem Untergang zu retten. Nur müssten sie dafür wieder zu Freunden werden.

In Uses and Abuses of Moses, Theodore Ziolkowski surveys the major literary treatments of the biblical figure of Moses since the Enlightenment. Beginning with the influential treatments by Schiller and Goethe, for whom Moses was, respectively, a member of a mystery cult and a violent murderer, Ziolkowski examines an impressive array of dramas, poems, operas, novels, and films to show the many ways in which the charismatic figure of Moses has been exploited—the “uses and abuses” of the title—to serve a variety of ideological and cultural purposes. Ziolkowski’s wide-ranging and in-depth study compares and analyzes the attempts by nearly one hundred writers to fill in the gaps in the biblical account of Moses’ life and to explain his motivation as a leader, lawgiver, and prophet. As Ziolkowski richly demonstrates, Moses’ image has been affected by historical factors such as the Egyptomania of the 1820s, the revolutionary movements of the mid-nineteenth century, the early move toward black liberation in the United States, and critical biblical scholarship of the late nineteenth century before, in the twentieth century, being appropriated by Marxists, Socialists, Nazis, and Freudians. The majority of the works studied are by Austro-German and Anglo-American writers, but Ziolkowski also includes significant examples of works from Hungary, Sweden, Norway, the Ukraine, Denmark, the Netherlands, Italy, and France. The figure of Moses becomes an animate seismograph, in Ziolkowski’s words, through whose literary reception we can trace many of the shifts in the cultural landscape of the past two centuries.

A companion to contemporary German crime fiction for English-speaking audiences is overdue. Starting with the earlier Swiss “classics” Glauser and Dürrenmatt and including a number of important Austrian authors, such as Wolf Haas and Heinrich Steinfest, this volume will cover the essential writers, genres, and themes of crime fiction written in German. Where necessary and appropriate, crime fiction in media other than writing (TV-series, movies) will be included. Contemporary social and political developments, such as gender issues, life in a multicultural society, and the afterlife of German fascism today, play a crucial role in much of recent German crime fiction. A number of contributions to this volume will comment on the literary reflection of these issues in the texts. The goal of the volume is to make available to English-speaking audiences, to students, teachers and to a wider circle of interested readers, a series of articles on genres, topics, authors, and texts that will help them understand the scope and depth of German crime fiction, its ties to international traditions and also the specificity of the German context, its historical development and contemporary situation.

Colin Wilson is the bete-noir of the Oxbridge literary establishment. He never went to university, let alone Oxbridge, yet wrote The Outsider, a brilliant account of the pain of being alive today, when he was just twenty-four. It sold millions of copies around the world, and he was acclaimed as one of the leading intellectuals of the age, finding a huge audience with the anti-establishment, alternative and underground thinkers. Because of his radically new attitudes he was - with John Osborne - dubbed an 'angry young man' in the article that originally coined that phrase. In this way a young man from a working class background suddenly found himself moving in the most colourful literary and artistic circles of the day. In his autobiography he tells stories about, among others, Aldous Huxley, Angus Wilson, John Osborne, Kingsley Amis, Kenneth Tynan, Francis Bacon and Norman Mailer - all observed with a true outsider's eye for absurdity. He is regarded by many as a true literary hero - Julian Cope stopped a recent concert to pay tribute to Wilson who as sitting in the audience and Donovan Leitch dedicates his new autobiography to him - but he also has huge mass market appeal. His insightful, brilliant books on the Occult, the Mysteries and Atlantis and the Sphinx were all huge bestsellers netting millions of copies. In this return to the themes of The Outsider, looked at from the point of his own life story, he again proves himself one of the great intellectuals of our age, never ceasing to wrestle with the great questions of life and death, and writing with an erudition and an easy way with ideas that is rare in English literary life.

Essaysammlung aus den Vorträgen der Weimarer Limenistikkonferenz: Unser Alltag wird bestimmt von Widersprüchen, denen die Philosophie geradezu magische Fähigkeiten zuschreibt. Doch der Großteil der Widersprüche stammt aus unseren begrenzten begrifflichen und anschaulichen Möglichkeiten, wenn es um die Beschreibung der Wirklichkeit geht. Dennoch erlaubt uns die Verschiedenheit zwischen Bewusstsein und Realität, ihr und damit uns selbst einen Schritt voraus zu sein: durch mystische Widersprüche.

2021 war das Jahr der privaten Raumfahrt: Jeff Bezos und Richard Branson haben bereits ihren ersten Flug hinter sich, ebenso William Shatner alias Captain Kirk. Auch Tesla-Chef Elon Musk bringt mit seinem Unternehmen Space-X erstmals vier Weltraumtouristen – ganz ohne professionelle Astronauten an Bord – ins All. Die Wirklichkeit scheint die Science Fiction einmal mehr einzuholen. Umso mehr stellt sich die Frage: Welche Rolle spielt die private Raumfahrt in der SF? Und dieser gehen wir in Beiträgen von Wolfgang Both, Bernd Flessner, Judith Vogt, Simon Spiegel und anderen mit dem Schwerpunkthema der 37. Ausgabe des Jahrbuchs auf den Grund. Doch wir wollen auch einen Blick auf einen gesellschaftsrelevanten Aspekt in der Science Fiction werfen, der nicht minder aktuell in unserer Gesellschaft ist: Hans Esselborn, Aiki Mira, Kai U. Jürgens und andere betrachten, wie das Genre mit dem Thema Kolonialismus umgeht – schließlich geht jeder Besuch eines anderen Planeten, einer anderen Gesellschaft mit einer Art der Kolonisierung einher. Darüber hinaus bietet die 37. Ausgabe des von Wolfgang Jeschke ins Leben gerufenen Almanachs einen umfangreichen Überblick über die Entwicklungen des Genres in Rezensionen und Beiträgen zu Buch, Film, Game und Serie. Abgerundet wird der Jahresrückblick mit einer Liste der Genre-Preise, mit Nachrufen sowie einer Bibliografie der Bücher, die 2021 auf Deutsch erstmals erschienen sind. Das SCIENCE FICTION JAHR erscheint seit 2019 im Hirnkost Verlag und wird von Melanie Wylutzki und Hardy Kettlitz herausgegeben.

Vienna Meets Berlin written by John Warren and has been published by Peter Lang this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2008 with History categories.
The volume is based on papers given at the London Symposium 'Vienna Meets Berlin: Culture in the Metropolis Between the Wars' which took place at the Institute of Germanic Studies in December 2001. The book surveys the cultural links between Vienna and Berlin with a focus on the inter-war years and some post-1945 continuities. It includes a centenary tribute to Ödön von Horváth and contributions on theatre, film, journalism (the feuilleton in particular), literature, music and socio-political issues. Together, the studies can be read as a narrative of interaction between the two capital cities. The industrial and modern Berlin of the 1920s proves an irresistible magnet for many Viennese, whose letters and journalism time and again reflect on the differences between the cities. The year 1933 marks the political cut-off point, when in many cases exile becomes the predominant theme.
