Contemporary Literature and the State challenges the critical opposition between the monolithic state and the individual artist. The volume collects essays on writers as different as Samuel Beckett and Ngozi Adichie and covers historical and geographical contexts from Yorkshire to Singapore, San Francisco to Cape Town. Featuring new and established critical voices, Contemporary Literature and the State is an important new contribution to debates about the politics of literature, coming at a time when state power appears both more arbitrary and more necessary than ever.

Theorien der Gabe beschäftigen sich häufig mit der Frage, ob es eine ‚reine’, uneigennützige Gabe überhaupt geben kann, und gehen meist von einem kategorialen Gegensatz zwischen Gabentausch und anderen Tauschformen aus. Literarische Texte bekümmert diese Fragen weniger. Sie erzählen Geschichten von unvollständigen, listigen, tückischen Gaben, von Zurückweisungen, Undankbarkeiten und Verausgabungen. Gute Gaben können schnell in schlechte umkippen oder sind von vorneherein durch Euphemisierung verklärte Akte (Bourdieu). Solche Störfaktoren verstehen sich als ‚Gift’ der Gabe, sie halten die Narrationen am Laufen, sie kommentieren Charaktertypen und Gesellschaften. Der Band geht Geschichten vom Geben von Jane Austen bis Ilse Aichinger, von Balzac bis Böll, von Henry James bis George Tabori nach, beschäftigt sich mit dem Brot als exemplarischem Stoff der Gabe, dem Souvenir als Gattung und fragt, welche theoretischen Modelle ‚Gift’ zulassen.

In this provocative work, Joel Faflak argues that Romanticism, particularly British Romantic poetry, invents psychoanalysis in advance of Freud. The Romantic period has long been treated as a time of incipient psychological exploration anticipating more sophisticated discoveries in the science of the mind. Romantic Psychoanalysis challenges this assumption by treating psychoanalysis in the Romantic period as a discovery unto itself, a way of taking Freud back to his future. Reading Romantic literature against eighteenth- and nineteenth-century philosophy, Faflak contends that Romantic poetry and prose—including works by Coleridge, De Quincey, Keats, and Wordsworth—remind a later psychoanalysis of its fundamental matrix in phantasy and thus of its profoundly literary nature.
