Contemporary culture is characterised by a peculiar desire for crime narratives. Novels, non-fiction books, films, TV series or podcasts that deal with real or fictional murders, acts of fraud or spectacular thefts attract a wide audience and often become the object of public fascination. The contributions to this volume trace this hunger for crime stories and evaluate both the aesthetic and ethical significance of them having become one of today’s leading narrative genres. With contributions by Sandra Beck, Juliane Blank, Johannes Franzen, Peter Hintz, Thomas Kniesche, Till Raether, Oliver Ruf, Simon Sahner, Dana Steglich, Eva Stubenrauch and Thomas Wortmann. Die zeitgenössische Kultur zeichnet sich durch einen großen Hunger nach Erzählungen von Verbrechen aus. Romane, Sachbücher, Filme, Serien oder Podcasts, die sich mit realen oder fiktiven Morden, Betrugsaktionen oder spektakulären Diebstählen beschäftigen, finden ein breites Publikum und werden oft zum Gegenstand der öffentlichen Faszination. Die Beiträge des Bandes spüren diesem narrativen Bedürfnis nach und stellen die Frage, was es ästhetisch und ethisch bedeutet, dass die Kriminalerzählung zur Leitgattung der Gegenwart geworden ist. Mit Beiträgen von Sandra Beck, Juliane Blank, Johannes Franzen, Peter Hintz, Thomas Kniesche, Till Raether, Oliver Ruf, Simon Sahner, Dana Steglich, Eva Stubenrauch und Thomas Wortmann.

Diese umfangreiche Studie behandelt erstmalig die gesamte Rezeption der Werke Schillers in allen relevanten slavischen Literaturen bis 1900. Sie konzentriert sich auf die Übersetzungen seiner Dichtungen in die entsprechenden Sprachen sowie die jeweiligen Reaktionen auf sein Schaffen in wissenschaftlichen Kreisen wie in der breiteren literarischen Öffentlichkeit. Hierbei wird nicht zuletzt auch berücksichtigt, inwiefern die jeweiligen nationalsprachlichen publizistischen Äußerungen zu Schiller eine eigenständige slavische Meinungsbildung widerspiegeln bzw. in ihrer Abhängigkeit von ausländischen Quellen gegebenenfalls weit eher vor allem deutsche bzw. französische Urteile zu seinem Werk reflektieren. Die Darstellung ergänzt eine detaillierte, mehr als 1.600 Titel umfassende Bibliographie der Übertragungen von Werken Schillers in sämtliche slavischen Sprachen bis 1900.

The concept of Wirkungsgeschichte is gaining ground in New Testament Studies. It involves the gathering of diverse interpretations of a text, but can it offer significant exegetical results or is it merely a form of cultural stamp collecting? This book explores the background of Wirkungsgeschichte in the philosophy of Hans-Georg Gadamer and applies the theory to a single pericope, Mt 14:22-33. Traditional historical and literary examinations of this story are brought into conversation with six works of art and a number of nineteenth century theological texts. The result is an enriched interpretation which fruitfully alerts us to the narrowness of the vision of our own time and place.
