Book Synopsis Nicht nur Mythen und Märchen by : Flora Veit-Wild
Download or read book Nicht nur Mythen und Märchen written by Flora Veit-Wild and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Afrikanische Literatur - eine wissenschaftliche Disziplin? Umfasst sie nur die Mythen und Märchen dieses für viele immer noch "schwarzen" Kontinents? Dieser Band zeigt die Vielfältigkeit und Geschichte eines Faches auf, das lange nur als Anhängsel an die Linguistik, Ethnologie, Anglistik oder Romanistik existierte. Mittlerweile ist die Lehre der afrikanischen Literaturen in englischer, französischer und in den indigenen afrikanischen Sprachen an einigen deutschsprachigen Universitäten als eigenes Fach etabliert, das viele Bezüge zu anderen Kulturwissenschaften aufweist. Es ist ein Fach, das zu einem Umdenken über Afrika, seine Menschen und Kulturen herausfordert. Afrikanische Literatur, so die Herausgeberin, sollte als eigene künstlerische Ausdrucksform betrachtet werden, die so unpolitisch, verrückt surreal und fantastisch sein "darf", wie andere Literaturen der Welt es auch sein können. In den hier versammelten Aufsätzen umreißen Spezialisten verschiedenster Fachrichtungen, wie sich die wissenschaftliche Beschäftigung mit afrikanischer Literatur entfaltet und welche diversen Inhalte sie zum Gegenstand hat. Es wird dabei sowohl auf die Entstehung der Afrikanistik als Kolonialwissenschaft als auch auf die unterschiedliche Entwicklung des Faches in Ost- und Westdeutschland sowie in Österreich eingegangen. Bei den Beiträgen des Bandes handelt es sich um Polemiken, Wissenschaftsbiographien, Forschungsartikel oder wissenschaftliche Standortbestimmungen. Trotz unterschiedlicher Herangehensweise ist allen Autorinnen und Autoren gemeinsam, dass sie sich über übliche Demarkierungen hinwegsetzen und der Herausforderung einer neuen Disziplin stellen.

Book Synopsis Absent Presences in the Colonial Archive by : Irene Hilden
Download or read book Absent Presences in the Colonial Archive written by Irene Hilden and published by Leuven University Press. This book was released on 2022-10-17 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Berlin Sound Archive (Lautarchiv) consists of an extensive collection of sound recordings, compiled for scientific purposes in the first half of the 20th century. Recorded on shellac are stories and songs, personal testimonies and poems, glossaries and numbers. This book engages with the archive by consistently focusing on recordings produced under colonial conditions. With a firm commitment to postcolonial scholarship, Absent Presences in the Colonial Archive is a historical ethnography of a metropolitan institution that participated in the production and preservation of colonial structures of power and knowledge. The book examines sound objects and listening practices that render the coloniality of knowledge fragile and inconsistent, revealing the absent presences of colonial subjects who are given little or no place in established national narratives and collective memories.

Book Synopsis Translation and Interdisciplinarity by : Faruk Yücel
Download or read book Translation and Interdisciplinarity written by Faruk Yücel and published by Logos Verlag Berlin GmbH. This book was released on 2022-12-12 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Interdisciplinarity is significant in the age of globalization and digitalization. It creates new opportunities through comparison and analysis of different findings and methods. Furthermore, it expands the boundaries of each discipline: each topic or phenomenon can be viewed under a whole new light. Instead of conventional or traditional methods, interdisciplinary cooperation can lead to innovative approaches that can contribute to the value of each discipline involved. It also requires respect and recognition between disciplines: their independent positions could be questioned or justified based on their interrelationship. Moreover, interdisciplinary work brings together diverse experts who cooperate and share their findings with each other. In this sense, interdisciplinarity can be seen as a dialogue between disciplines. In this complex interaction, a 'third' field may emerge that transcends the boundaries of each independent discipline. Since relatively young Translation Studies has long been influenced by other disciplines, its boundaries could be defined through interdisciplinarity. In this book, numerous translation scholars engage with the relationship between translation and other disciplines. Translation here is not only to be understood as a transmission of texts, but in a broader sense, as denoting a transformation of different phenomena that could be studied both as a product and as a process.

Book excerpt: Most of the fairy tales that we grew up with we know thanks to the Brothers Grimm. Jack Zipes, one of our surest guides through the world of fairy tales and their criticism, takes behind the romantics mythology of the wandering brothers. Bringing to bear his own critical expertise, as well as new biographical information, Zipes examines the interaction between the Grimms' lives and their work. He reveals the Grimms' personal struggle to overcome social prejudice and poverty, as well as their political efforts - as scholars and civil servant - toward unifying the German states. By deftly interweaving the social, political, and personal elements of the lives of the Brothers Grimm, Zipes rescues them from sentimental obscurity. No longer figures in fairy tale, the Brothers Grimm emerge as powerful creators, real men who established the fairy tale as one of our great literary institutions. Part biography, part critical assessment, part social history, the Brothers Grimm provides a complex and very real story about fairy tales and the modern world.
