"Why do queer bachelors and homosexual desire haunt the works of the German writer W. G. Sebald (1944-2001)? In a series of readings of Sebald's major texts, from 'After Nature' to 'Austerlitz', Helen Finch's pioneering study shows that alternative masculinities subvert catastrophe in Sebald's works. From the schizophrenic poet Ernst Herbeck to the alluring shade of Kafka in Venice, the figure of the bachelor offers a form of resistance to the destructive course of history throughout Sebald's critical and literary writing. Sebald's poetics of homosexual desire trace a 'line of flight' away from the patriarchal and repressive order of German society, which, in Sebald's view, led to the disasters of Nazism. This study shows that the potential for subversion personified by Sebald's solitary males is essential for understanding his celebrated work, while also demonstrating the contribution that Sebald made to the German tradition of queer writing. Helen Finch is Academic Fellow in German at the University of Leeds."

The novelist, poet, and essayist W. G. Sebald (1944 – 2001) was perhaps the most original German writer of the last decade of the 20th century (“Die Ausgewanderten”, “Austerlitz”, “Luftkrieg und Literatur”). His writing is marked by a unique ‘hybridity’ that combines characteristics of travelogue, cultural criticism, crime story, historical essay, and dream diary, among other genres. He employs layers of literary and motion picture allusions that contribute to a sometimes enigmatic, sometimes intimately familiar mood; his dominant mode is melancholy. The contributions of this anthology examine W. G. Sebald as narrator and pensive observer of history. The book includes a previously unpublished interview with Sebald from 1998.

"W. G. Sebald was a literary phenomenon: a German literary scholar working in England, who took up creative writing out of dissatisfaction with German post-war letters. Within only a few years, his unique prose books made him one of the most celebrated authors of the late twentieth-century. This...critical introduction...highlights Sebald's double role as writer and academic. It discusses his oeuvre in the order in which his works were published in German in order to offer a deeper understanding of the original development of his literary writings"--publisher's website.

Franz Kafka was a self-conscious writer whose texts were highly if mysteriously autobiographical. Three giants of contemporary fiction—J. M. Coetzee, Philip Roth, and W. G. Sebald—have all acknowledged their debt to the work of Kafka, both in interviews and in their own academic essays and articles for a general readership about him. In this striking feat of literary scholarship, Daniel Medin finds that the use of Kafka by Coetzee, Roth, and Sebald is similarly self-reflexive and autobiographical. That writers from such divergent national and ethnic traditions can have such unique critical readings of Kafka, and that Kafka could exert such a powerful influence over their oeuvres, Medin contends, attests to the central place of Kafka in the contemporary literary imagination.

This open access book provides a systematic overview of experiences with Inquiry-Based Learning (IBL) and undergraduate research (UR) in German universities, covering both research universities (Universitäten) and universities of applied sciences (Fachhochschulen). Divided into three parts, the book starts with the principles and common practices of IBL/UR at all universities. Part Two discusses the implementation of IBL/UR for twenty-one individual disciplines, ranging from architecture to theology. Part Three discusses the potential of IBL/UR in relation to several topics including diversity, digitalisation, different forms of universities, and the national job market. The book summarises the project of the German network of UR, comprising approximately 50 universities, and results of a national initiative called Qualitätspakt Lehre which is intended to improve teaching at German universities. Today IBL and UR are essential parts of high-impact education strategies for universities around the world. In his university reform plans of the early 19th century, Wilhelm von Humboldt introduced Inquiry-Based Teaching and Learning as the core principle of the modern research university in Germany, as well as worldwide. IBL was re-discovered in the German university reform initiatives of the 1960s. Since then, IBL has been applied in teachers' education in German universities. The book presents IBL/UR experience as complementary to what is usually presented in English-speaking academia. In Germany, IBL/UR is applied broadly throughout the social sciences and planning, but not in the core sciences, whereas in the US undergraduate research is common in the sciences but less so in the social sciences. Moreover, in Germany, IBL/UR is often linked to applied and community-oriented research — something that is just emerging in the US.

‘Sebald is the Joyce of the 21st Century’ The Times What begins as the record of W. G. Sebald’s own journey on foot through coastal East Anglia, from Lowestoft to Bungay, becomes the conductor of evocations of people and cultures past and present. From Chateaubriand, Thomas Browne, Swinburne and Conrad, to fishing fleets, skulls and silkworms, the result is an intricately patterned and haunting book on the transience of all things human. ‘A novel of ideas with a difference: it is nothing but ideas... Formally dexterous, fearlessly written (why shouldn't an essay be a novel?), and unremittingly arcane; by the end I was in tears’ Teju Cole, Guardian

W.G. Sebald, der Schriftsteller und Germanist, lehrte bis zu seinem Unfalltod im Dezember 2001 Europäische Literatur an der University of East Anglia in Norwich (Grafschaft Norfolk). Vor allem in der englischsprachigen Welt gilt er vielen als der bedeutendste deutschsprachige Autor an der Wende zum 21. Jahrhundert. Autoren-Kollegen wie J.M. Coetzee, Gabriel García Márquez und Javier Marías haben sich an seiner Prosa begeistert. "Is literary greatness still possible?", fragte Susan Sontag. "One of the few answers available to English language readers is the work of W.G. Sebald." Die vorliegende Studie stellt einen betont subjektiven Versuch dar, dem Dschungel der Bezüge nachzugehen, die seine buntgefügten Textgespinste tragen. Sie ist keiner Theorie verpflichtet und läuft auf keine These hinaus. Sie versteht sich ebenso als Beitrag zur Sebaldforschung wie als Handreichung an den Sebaldleser. Sie sucht die fünf literarischen Werke, die zu seinen Lebzeiten erschienen sind, auf eher lockere, "essayistische" Art zu kommentieren, bemüht um Textnähe und Blick auf die Details. Es ist erstaunlich, wie viel Neues sich trotz all der Forschungsflut zu diesem Autor immer noch entdecken lässt.

Das Marginale ist ein immanenter Bestandteil der Lebenswirklichkeit. W.G. Sebald und Orhan Pamuk widmen sich ihm in ihrer Prosa auf vielfältige Weise: Randfiguren, politische und geografische Peripherien, eine verdrängte Vergangenheit sowie marginale Objekte wie Ruinen, Verfallenes und scheinbar wertlose Gegenstände sind wesentlicher Gegenstand ihrer Werke. Ersin Münüklü eruiert ihre emphatische Auseinandersetzung mit dem Marginalen als ein poetologisches Prinzip ihrer Erzählungen. Das Marginale wird hier mit Sinnhaftigkeit besetzt und erscheint als ein in ethisch-ästhetischer Hinsicht wertvolles Erkenntnismodell: eine Poetik des Marginalen.
