Der gebürtige Wiener Wolfgang von Weisl (1896-1974) ist der bedeutendste und radikalste revisionistische Zionist österreichischer Herkunft. Er hat nach dem Ersten Weltkrieg mit enormem, vielfältigem und auch militantem Einsatz als Politiker, Arzt, Offizier, Ökonom, Kolonist, Vortragender, Schriftsteller und Journalist an der Wegbereitung eines unabhängigen jüdischen Staates in Palästina mitgewirkt. Sein Lebenswerk, seine Autobiographie und seine zahlreichen politischen und literarischen Schriften - Zeitungsartikel, orientalische Sach- und Reisebücher, medizinische und religionspsychologische Abhandlungen, Gedichte, erzählende und dramatische Texte - sind bisher noch unerforscht. Diese vom Österreichischen Wissenschaftsfonds (FWF) geförderte, kommentierte und ausführlich monographisch eingeleitete Edition der beiden autobiographischen Texte Wolfgang von Weisls, "Lang ist der Weg ins Vaterland" und "Der Weg nach Latrun", leistet einen ersten grundlegenden Beitrag.

The reception history of the term autofiction, coined by Serge Doubrovsky in 1977 and strongly polarising since then, shows that autofictional writing has been used by numerous authors in the past decades as a possibility to give explosive insights into their lives on the one hand, but to refer to an indeterminable ""fictional"" part of their work on the other. The underlying interferences between fictional and factual narrative strategies seem to predestine autofiction for the representation and provocation of scandal. This volume brings together contributions that illuminate the relationship between autofiction and scandal from epistemological, literary-historical and reception-aesthetic perspectives and explore ethical questions of the demarcation between public and private space.

"Em 1994, aos vinte e cinco anos de idade, quando o terrível "despedaçamento que vem com a agressão sexual" dobrou-se profundamente em seu corpo e pensamentos de suicídio estavam sempre por perto, Erin Manning escreveu A Manga Perfeita num estado quase febril: dezenove capítulos em dezenove dias, uma especie de operação de auto-resgate, onde a escrita tornou-se uma maneira de fazer (e sentir) a vida de outra forma. Ao longo desses dezenove dias, e embora não capaz de articular completamente para si mesma na epoca, Manning escreveu-se para dentro "de uma composição que pergunta de que outra forma a vida poderia ser vivida". E nos ritmos dessa composição, que era tambem uma vida, Manning foi e e capaz de recusar a categoria e norma e imobilidade da "vítima" (enquanto ainda compreende as heranças da violência) a fim de seguir em vez disso o mais-que-eu assim como a alegria do "mais-que da experiência no fazer" Vinte e cinco anos depois, Manning permite que esses escritos anteriores encontrem seu caminho de volta ao mundo, o que e uma maneira de dar "voz a esses momentos de sobrevivência confusos" enquanto tambem pede a nós, que compartilhamos (e ajudamos a suportar) tais momentos enquanto leitores, que consideremos "outras formas de escutar a urgência que e viver". Republicar o livro agora e dar-lhe um lugar no mundo de uma maneira que honre sua força como algo que está sempre alem da reivindicação de qualquer um, mesmo de Manning. Nesse sentido, A Manga Perfeita nos convida, com Manning, a estar em excesso de nós mesmos, e tambem a considerarmos, nas palavras de Manning, "como criar condições para viver alem da crença feroz do humanismo de que nós, os privilegiados, os neurotípicos, os ainda incólumes, os corpos-capazes, e que guardamos a chave para todas as perspectivas no teatro da vida". Por fim, A Manga Perfeita e as reflexões de Manning a respeito de sua composição pedem que consideremos "viver na feroz celebração de um mundo inventado por esses modos de vida que rasgam o tecido colonial, branco, neurotípico da vida como a conhecemos.""
