Abstract

Wie stehen der Wunsch nach Abenteuern und die Lust des Lesens in Beziehung? Wer aufbricht, um Abenteuer zu suchen, wird von - teils unbewussten - Wunschenergien geleitet. In ähnlicher Weise folgen Leser*innen den arrangierten Wechselfällen des Zufalls gespannt, selbst dann wenn ein gutes Ende bereits absehbar ist. Werden Abenteuerheld*innen auf die Probe gestellt und von ihnen ersehnte Erfahrungen aufgeschoben, erweisen sich psychologische Konzepte wie Angstlust und Vorlust als aufschlussreich. Antriebsmomente der Erzählung und begehrliche Lektüre sind dabei eng verknüpft. Der Sammelband widmet sich dieser Konstellation von Erleben, Erzählen und Lesen in historischer Perspektive: Vom Zusammenspiel von Reise und Eros im antiken Roman über das phantasmatische Begehren Don Quijotes bis zu innovativen Spannungsmodellen der Moderne.

Abstract

Was ist überhaupt ein Glücksritter? Was ist ein Abenteurer oder eine Abenteurerin? Und wie erzählt man deren Geschichten? Der vorliegende Band dokumentiert Antworten, die im Umfeld der Forschungsgruppe "Philologie des Abenteuers" auf solche Fragen gefunden wurden. Es werden aufschlussreiche Stationen aus der Geschichte der Abenteuerliteratur beleuchtet. Anhebend mit der innovativen Figur des mittelalterlichen Ritters, der freiwillig in die Fremde zieht, um dort sein Glück zu finden - Reichtum, sozialer Status, erotische Erfüllung -, schlägt die Ringvorlesung einen großen historischen Bogen, der über die Übersteigerungen und parodistischen Brechungen der frühen Neuzeit, über Vagabunden und Entdecker bis zu Alltagsabenteurern und den invertierten Helden Kafkas führt.

Abstract

"It's a critical cliche that Cervantes' Don Quixote is the first modern novel, but this distinction raises two fundamental questions. First, how does one define a novel? And second, what is the relationship between this genre and understandings of modernity? In Forms of Modernity, Rachel Schmidt examines how seminal theorists and philosophers have wrestled with the status of Cervantes' masterpiece as an 'exemplary novel', in turn contributing to the emergence of key concepts within genre theory. Schmidt's discussion covers the views of well-known thinkers such as Friedrich Schlegel, Jose Ortega y Gasset, and Mikhail Bakhtin, but also the pivotal contributions of philosophers such as Hermann Cohen and Miguel de Unamuno. These theorists' examinations of Cervantes's fictional knight errant character point to an ever-shifting boundary between the real and the virtual. Drawing from both intellectual and literary history, Forms of Modernity richly explores the development of the categories and theories that we use today to analyze and understand novels."--Pub. desc.

Abstract

La novela Don Quijote forma parte de la herencia común de España y Latinoamérica más que cualquier otra obra española. Difícilmente se encontrará a un autor hispanoamericano que no haya dado su parecer sobre el Quijote, la novela o su creador, o que no se haya aproximado, aunque sólo simbólicamente, al caballero de la triste figura. Aunque el camino del Quijote por América Latina difiere de su itinerario por España, aquel forma una parte importante e integrante de la recepción del Quijote. “La Mancha, en verdad, adquirió todo su sentido en las Américas”, dice Carlos Fuentes destacando así la relevancia de la contribución latinoamericana al debate sobre el Quijote . Teniendo en cuenta que la recepción del Quijote en América Latina ofrece un vasto panorama de más de 400 años de historia intelectual latinoamericana, sorprende que hasta hoy la crítica se haya ocupado relativamente poco de esta temática compleja y sumamente importante. El presente volumen reúne trabajos de especialistas procedentes de varios países de Europa y de las Américas, artículos que abarcan la recepción del Quijote desde los primeros textos de la época colonial hasta la literatura y el cine más reciente. El libro muestra el estado actual de las investigaciones sobre la recepción del clásico en América Latina.

Abstract

Roman noir, parabole de la capitulation des intellectuels face à la montée du nazisme, Auto-da-fé de Canetti (dont le titre allemand Die Biendung signifie « L’Aveuglement ») est aussi une transposition magistrale de Don Quichotte. L’analogie entre les deux romans est si patente qu’elle n’a pas manqué d’être relevée par la critique, mais elle n’avait pas encore, à ce jour, fait l’objet d’une étude approfondie. Pire, elle n’a trop souvent servi qu’à alimenter l’idée reçue selon laquelle Elias Canetti serait un écrivain conventionnel, pour ne pas dire réactionnaire. Au moyen d’une analyse comparative précise, Christine Meyer met à jour le réseau de correspondances qui relient Auto-da-fé au chef-d’œuvre de Cervantès. Elle parvient ainsi à éclairer les enjeux multiples, à la fois esthétiques et philosophiques, de la transformation intertextuelle chez Canetti.

Abstract

"This volume of scholarly essays brings together the work of the foremost specialists in the field of contemporary Spanish letters. It represents not only the first collection to focus exclusively on the phenomenon of realism within the context of modern Spanish literature in more than a quarter century, but also the first to be written in English. Imagined Truths appears at a significant moment of renewed interest in realism as a literary, historical, and cultural phenomenon. The essays in this collection address a broad range of authors, works, and topics from an exploration of the continued relevance of Cervantes' Don Quixote to Juan Marse's twenty-first century detective fiction, and they focus on the various ways in which we understand and process narratives as representative of a certain kind of reality. In addition to their valuable analyses of particular works and authors, the essays constitute a much-needed scholarly dialogue that expands our understanding of the unique place of realism in Spain's cultural history."--

Abstract

"What is the role of literature in the formation of the state? Anthony J. Cascardi takes up this fundamental question in Cervantes, Literature, and the Discourse of Politics, a comprehensive analysis of the presence of politics in Don Quixote. Cascardi argues that when public speech is constrained, as it was in seventeenth-century Spain, politics must be addressed indirectly, including through comedy, myth, and travellers' tales. Cervantes, Literature, and the Discourse of Politics convincingly reengages the ancient roots of political theory in modern literature by situating Cervantes within a long line of political thinkers. Cascardi notably connects Cervantes' political theory to Plato's, much as the writer's literary criticism has been firmly linked to Aristotle's. He also shows how Cervantes' view of literature provided a compelling alternative to the modern, scientific politics of Machiavelli and Hobbes, highlighting the potential interplay of literature and politics in an ideal state."--Page [i].

Abstract

Frederick A. de Armas unravels an essential mystery of one of world literature's best known figures: why Quixote sets out to revive knight errantry, and why he comes to feel at home only among the Moorish 'Saracens,' a people whom Quixote feared at the beginning of the novel. De Armas also reveals Quixote's inner conflicts as both a Christian who vows to battle the infidel, but also a secret Saracen sympathizer. While delving into genre theory, Don Quixote among the Saracens adds a new dimension to our understandings of Spain's multicultural history."--pub. desc. "The fictional Don Quixote was constantly defeated in his knightly adventures. In writing Quixote's story, however, Miguel Cervantes succeeded in a different kind of quest - the creation of a modern novel that 'conquers' and assimilates countless literary genres. Don Quixote among the Saracens considers how Cervantes's work reflects the clash of civilizations and anxieties towards cultural pluralism that permeated Golden Age Spain.
