Abstract

From the perspective of Latin American Studies, this volume offers a critical contribution to the current debate on world literature. It is structured around three conceptual blocks: "gatekeepers", as the dispositives and actors mediating the international circulation of literature; "translation", as an unavoidable but always problematic mechanism; and "local literatures", as modes of writing that remain intrinsically tied to their contexts. ¿Cómo ingresa la literatura en circulación internacional? ¿Qué factores regulan dicho proceso? ¿Qué transformaciones sufre cuando lo hace? ¿Qué sucede con la que nunca lo consigue o se lo propone? Con foco en la literatura que, de acuerdo con postulados teóricos diseñados en los años 60, es concebida como latinoamericana y con contribuciones de destacados investigadores de diferentes lugares de Europa, América Latina y EE.UU., el volumen Literatura latinoamericana mundial intenta ser un aporte crítico al actual debate sobre literatura mundial. Tres bloques conceptuales, que también son tres de los principales núcleos en torno a los cuales gira la discusión, lo organizan: "gatekeepers", con foco en los dispositivos, actores o instituciones que vehiculizan u obturan la circulación internacional de literatura; "traducción", con reflexiones acerca de este mecanismo ineludible, pero siempre problemático, para que la literatura trascienda fronteras nacionales; y "literaturas locales", concentrado en escrituras y proyectos que, al permanecer aferrados a contextos específicos, constituyen el lado negado de ciertos modelos hegemónicos de la teoría de la literatura mundial.

Abstract

Volume 29 features articles on Anton Reiser; the legacies of German romanticism; Goethe's morphology and computational analysis; Goethe commemorations in Argentina; and Goethe's Weltliteratur in the context of trade with China. Additionally, volume 29 features two special sections. The first commemorates an anniversary, Holderlin's 250th birthday, with work devoted to 'Reading and Exhibiting,' compiled by Meike Werner. The other special section, on movement and edited by Heidi Schlipphacke, further explores research featured at MLA 2021 and revisits many questions of sentimentalism, visuality, and narration that are at the core of canon formation and eighteenth-century thresholds of modernity. As always, the book review section, edited by Sean Franzel, concludes the volume.

Abstract

El debate en torno al concepto de literatura mundial acompaña el proceso de reconfiguración del diseño global desde la Caída del Muro de Berlín y el desmantelamiento del orden bipolar en adelante. Las literaturas nacionales e incluso los constructos regionales están, desde entonces, en crisis. Fórmulas teóricas divergentes y también complementarias buscan resituar las literaturas latinoamericanas en dinámicas globales y superar, así, los marcos que se han revelado como obsoletos. En discusión con postulados idealistas y normativos, De la literatura latinoamericana a la literatura (latinoamericana) mundial propone un examen de las condiciones materiales, procesos y actores que hoy permiten -o impiden- que la literatura latinoamericana entre en circulación internacional y devenga literatura (latinoamericana) mundial. En un segundo momento, bajo la premisa de que las instancias de mediación dejan "huellas", el estudio se aparta de la sociología de la literatura para examinar de cerca configuraciones textuales. Intenta, finalmente y en respuesta al énfasis en la circulación de ciertos modelos hegemónicos, otorgarle visibilidad -y valor como literatura del mundo- a expresiones que permanecen inscriptas en dominios locales. What is World Literature? To answer this question, this book asks another one: How is it produced, that is, what are the material conditions, processes, and actors, which enable Latin-American Literature to circulate internationally and become (Latin-American) World Literature? Exploring the tension between literature for and of the world, the volume also intend to give visibility-and value as World Literature- to local forms of expression.

Abstract

The idea of world literature has garnered much attention recently as a discipline that promises to move humanistic study beyond postcolonial theory and antiquated paradigms of “national” literary traditions. In Forget English! Aamir Mufti scrutinizes the claims made on behalf of world literature by its advocates. The notion of a borderless, egalitarian global literature has obvious appeal, he notes, but behind it lurks the continuing dominance of English as a literary language and a cultural system of international reach.The cultural logic of what Edward Said identified as Orientalism continues to structure world literature discourse, Mufti says—although in updated ways that conceal the persistence of the continental and civilizational inequalities of the colonial past. From the beginning, world literature has been an eminently Orientalist idea, one made possible by the translation labors of European Orientalist scholars and the canonizing of Orientalist concepts of cultural difference.World literature has always been a border regime, an implicit set of regulations governing the mobility of various national and local literatures across the world. Mufti explores how English historically achieved its literary preeminence, and he deepens our understanding of how the hegemony of English affects non-European languages—particularly those of India and South Asia—as vessels of literary expression. At the center of the very possibility of world literature is the dominance of English, as both a literary vernacular and the undisputed language of global capitalism.

Abstract

Als "Erfinder" der Hirtendichtung ging der hellenistische Dichter Theokrit in die Literaturgeschichte ein und prägte damit für Jahrhunderte das Gattungsspektrum der europäischen Literatur. Die Autorinnen und Autoren dieses Bandes widmen sich der Wirkungsgeschichte des Dichters in der Literatur der römischen Kaiserzeit (Calpurnius Siculus, Longos und andere Prosaiker) und der lateinischen und altgriechischen Literatur der Frühen Neuzeit. Sie diskutieren die antike Rezeption und bisher unbekanntere Rezeptionszeugnisse aus der frühneuzeitlichen Tradition. So können der Wirkungsgeschichte dieses "Klassikers" neue Aspekte hinzugefügt werden. Dabei sticht nicht nur die häufige Verbindung und der Vergleich mit seinem römischen Pendant Vergil, sondern auch seine spätere Einbindung in christliche Kontexte heraus. Auf diese Weise blieben seine Gedichte lebendig und wurden wiederholt aktualisiert – sei es rein literarisch oder sogar, wie in einem Fall, in Form von Aufführungen theokriteisch geprägter Stücke. Symbolhaft für diese immer neuen Transformationen und Verschmelzungen steht die Junktur Hyblaea avena („hybläische/sizilische Flöte"), mit der der Römer Calpurnius dem griechischen Gattungsvater in vergilischem Vokabular seine Reverenz erweist.
