This book was released on 1990 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Die vorliegende Untersuchung stellt ein interdisziplinäres Verstehensmodell dar, bei dem es um die Anwendung rezeptionsästhetischer Ansätze auf das Lesen schwarzamerikanischer Texte geht. Martin Luther King und die Rezeption seiner Werke stehen dabei im Mittelpunkt mit den Lernzielen der Stereotypenkorrektur und der Erziehung zu humanitärem Friedensverhalten. Unter einer neuen methodischen Sichtweise, die von Dr. King als humanitärem Erzieher und Sozialphilosophen ausgeht, werden Kings philosophische, theologische und rassenpolitische Schriften analysiert und aufgezeigt, wie literarische Rezeption zu korrektivem hermeneutischen Verstehen führen kann.

Book Synopsis Rethinking Postmodern Subjectivity by : Zuzanna Ladyga
Download or read book Rethinking Postmodern Subjectivity written by Zuzanna Ladyga and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2009 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is postmodern literary subjectivity? How to talk about it without falling in the trap of negative hyper-essentialism or being seduced by exuberant lit speak? One way out of this dilemma, as this book suggests, is via a redefinition of the concept in the context of Emmanuel Levinas and his radical ethics. By defining subjectivity as an ethically charged act of language, Levinas provides a fresh perspective on the often trivialized aspects of postmodern poetics such as referentiality and affect construction strategies. The foregrounding of the ethical dimension of those poetic elements has far-reaching consequences for how we read postmodern texts and understand postmodernism in general. Thus, to prove the benefits of the Levinasian approach, the author applies it to the work of the canonical American postmodernist, Donald Barthelme, and explains the distinctly ethical character of his apparently surfictional experiments.
Book Synopsis Otherness in the Novels of Patrick White by : Alma Budurlean
Download or read book Otherness in the Novels of Patrick White written by Alma Budurlean and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2009 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The central argument of the thesis, the representation and reception of otherness, is followed throughout White's novels with the support of a complex critical instrumentarium made up of postcolonial theory, reader response theory, cultural-critical frameworks, alterity theory, and narratology. Otherness in its manifold representations is a main component of Patrick White's fiction. It functions on several levels and this requires a deeper entanglement on the part of the reader. The different levels previously referred to are embodied in the various Others who people White's novels: ethnic Others as members of the Australian multicultural society and the Aborigines as colonial Others, as well as gender Others, who also play an important role in White's fictional world. Reading Patrick White is an exercise in tolerance, endurance and acceptance of alternatives. But the efforts of the reader do not remain unrewarded. In his endeavour to change what it meant to imagine Australia, the writer broke down the barriers of what it meant to imagine otherness.

Book Synopsis The Making of Orcadia by : Berthold Schoene-Harwood
Download or read book The Making of Orcadia written by Berthold Schoene-Harwood and published by Peter Lang Gmbh, Internationaler Verlag Der Wissenschaften. This book was released on 1995 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The gradual establishment of George Mackay Brown as Orkney's literary spokesman over the last four decades has instigated a revival of the Orcadian tradition in literature. In light of Paul Ricoeur's concept of narrative identity this study explores the correlations between Brown's work and the construction and maintenance of a distinct Orkney identity. It posits that communal identity derives from dynamic narrative processes merging fact and fiction into a story that is generally accepted as authentic in spite of its essentially mythic nature.
Book Synopsis Voices in the Heart by : Brian Hooper
Download or read book Voices in the Heart written by Brian Hooper and published by Anglo-amerikanische Studien / Anglo-American Studies. This book was released on 2003 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author undertakes the task of examining a large body of literature produced in Hong Kong to show it as an integral part of the universal human heritage. This thematic study of contemporary Hong Kong anglophone literature identifies a series of themes and motifs that can be drawn upon both as figures for an authentically «Hong Kong» criticism and as lenses through which to read, contextualize, and interpret the texts that constitute this canon of fiction, autobiography, drama, and poetry. Focusing on three central texts - Patrick Acheson's intricately-wrought and provocative Flagrant Harbour, Lee Ding Fai's rags-to-riches story Running Dog, and Timothy Mo's The Monkey King - Hooper offers a theoretical structure for analyzing the postcolonial phenomena in the Hong Kong context. This book includes an exhaustive bibliography of Hong Kong literature.

Book Synopsis Compendious Conversations by : Kevin Lee Cope
Download or read book Compendious Conversations written by Kevin Lee Cope and published by Peter Lang Gmbh, Internationaler Verlag Der Wissenschaften. This book was released on 1992 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The abundance of information entering the discourse of both English and continental Enlightenments encouraged the exploration of new or the renovation of old genres and disciplines. Dialogue, the most flexible, responsive, and spontaneous of forms, became not only the preferred, but often the dominant method for the retention, evaluation, analysis, and communication of new worlds of knowledge and for the expunging of old worlds of error. The contributors to Compendious Conversations take advantage of the recent expansion of literary studies into vast catalogues of overlooked works, from dialogical contemplations of Socrates to midnight marital conversations, to consider the status of dialogue as both a literary mode and a philosophical method. They propose the most comprehensive study to date of the social, literary, and philosophical history of the form linking Shakespeare's declamation with Coleridge's table talk.
Book Synopsis Keys to Controversies by : Astrid Franke
Download or read book Keys to Controversies written by Astrid Franke and published by Campus Verlag. This book was released on 1999 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stereotypes are usually seen as expression of racism and defamation, but they also play a role in cognition and contribute to the processes of perceiving and understanding other social groups and cultures. Based on this ambivalence, this study inquires into the function of stereotypes and employs the term as a key to the analysis of literary and cultural texts. It illuminates how different aesthetic projects relate to each other and interweave with artistic and political controversies of American Modernism.

Book Synopsis Narrating Transgression by : Rosamaria Loretelli
Download or read book Narrating Transgression written by Rosamaria Loretelli and published by Peter Lang Gmbh, Internationaler Verlag Der Wissenschaften. This book was released on 1999 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Crime and the criminal are amongst the outstanding discourses of late seventeenth and eighteenth-century English written culture, a subject to be found in ballads, sermons, biographies, case histories, dying speeches, newspaper articles, accounts of trials, Newgate Ordinary reports, paintings and etchings, poems, comedies and novels. It is this printed material that the essays in the present collection approach, somewhat obliquely, searching for hidden meanings and unavowed aims. The result is an opening up of new perspectives: not only on the various attitudes towards particular crimes and particular types of criminal - such as thieves, 'sodomites' and prostitutes - but also on cultural control as enacted by the various literary and visual genres. New insights are achieved into seventeenth and eighteenth-century mentalities, into perception of the marginal, and into the very idea of the human being.

Book Synopsis Voices of the Self in Daniel Defoe's Fiction by : Zaixin Zhang
Download or read book Voices of the Self in Daniel Defoe's Fiction written by Zaixin Zhang and published by Peter Lang Gmbh, Internationaler Verlag Der Wissenschaften. This book was released on 1993 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The alternative Marxist approach to literary criticism in the present study consists of three «vocal» modes of interpretation: the public voice, the private voice, and the homeless voice of the self. The public voice represents the authorial vision shaped by dominant ideology that covers up the «objective» real, while the private voice corresponds to the authorial conscious or unconscious insertion into radical ideology that turns the «objective» real into the ideological real. However, the homeless voice of the self may obliterate any ties with history and ideology. A representation of the Marxist «particular interest» of the self, the homeless voice echoes in the open space of the text and reaches for the distant real shaped by the reader's interpretive paradigms inside or outside the constraints of the institutional discourse. The alternative Marxist approach values both history and theory in literary criticism, as the interplay between the two may reinforce and supplement each other in their shared interpretive territory of the private voice of the self in the text, although the public voice is more oriented towards history and the homeless voice towards theory. The different voices of the self are exemplified in a critical reading of Daniel Defoe's Robinson Crusoe, Captain Singleton, Moll Flanders, and Roxana. Such a study profits from both modern critical theory (reader response, postmodernism, and feminist theory, etc.) and historical insights into Defoe's fiction (religious hermeneutics, theology and medicine, and gender issues in the eighteenth century, etc.)

Book Synopsis The Fiction of Joseph Conrad by : Nic Panagopoulos
Download or read book The Fiction of Joseph Conrad written by Nic Panagopoulos and published by Peter Lang Gmbh, Internationaler Verlag Der Wissenschaften. This book was released on 1998 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although Schopenhauer's influence on Conrad has been acknowledged for some time, there have been no booklength studies dealing exclusively with this subject, or the much-debated question of Conrad's relationship to Nietzsche. The present study comes to fill this gap in Conrad criticism, and show how a knowledge of these philosophers' main ideas can help illuminate the central concerns and presuppositions of Conrad's fiction. The author argues that the novelist was often grappling with the same problems as Schopenhauer and Nietzsche, and responding to some of the key issues of the Idealistic movement in the history of ideas.
