Abstract

»Ich meinerseits bin an Gegenwart interessiert« - diese Aussage Rolf Dieter Brinkmanns bildet den programmatischen Kern seiner Poetik. Da Realitätswahrnehmungen immer schon medial vermittelt und geformt sind, ist die Literarisierung ›authentischen‹ Erlebens ein ebenso komplexes wie utopisches Verfahren. Brinkmanns Gegenwartsrepräsentationen manifestieren sich in seinem Werk als intermediale Experimente. Stephanie Schmitt kontextualisiert, spezifiziert und analysiert in dieser Studie die vielfältigen Bezüge zwischen Text und Bild ebenso wie zwischen Literatur und Musik von den lyrischen Anfängen bis zu den späten Materialbänden des Autors. »[Hier] liegt eine Arbeit vor, die ihren Wert hat sowohl als exemplarische Fallstudie für die Intermedialitätsforschung als auch als eine das Gesamtwerk gut strukturierende Überblicksmonographie zu diesem Aspekt bei Rolf Dieter Brinkmann.« Philipp Böttcher, Monatshefte, 106/3 (2014) Besprochen in: GERMANISTIK, 55/1-2 (2014)

Abstract

In Germany between the mid-1990s and the mid-2000s there was an unprecedented 'confusion of the spheres' of literature and popular music. Popular musicians 'crossed over' into the literary field, editors and writers called for contemporary German literature to become more like popular music, writers attempted to borrow structural aspects from music or paid new attention to popular music at the thematic level. Others sought to raise their profiles by means of performance models taken from the popular music field. This book sets out to make sense of this situation. It argues for more inclusive and detailed attention to what it calls 'musico-centric fiction', for which it discerns intellectual precursors going back to the 1960s and also identifies examples written since the turn of the millennium, after the would-be death of 'pop literature'. In doing so, it focuses on fiction and paratextual interventions by authors including Peter Handke, Rolf Dieter Brinkmann, Rainald Goetz, Andreas Neumeister, Thomas Meinecke, Matthias Politycki, Frank Goosen, Benjamin von Stuckrad-Barre, Thomas Brussig, Karen Duve, and Kerstin Grether. Andrew W. Hurley is Senior Lecturer in German and Cultural Studies at the University of Technology, Sydney, Australia.

Abstract

A volume of essays marking out a new, historically and culturally specific model for contemplating autobiographical non-fiction film and video. There is a widespread notion in the scholarly literature on autobiographical nonfiction film that there are unchanging, universal models for the investigation of the self through audiovisual media. By insisting on the cultural andhistorical specificity of that self, the essays in this volume trace the range of politically and theoretically informed taboos, critiques, and proclivities that shape autobiographical filmmaking in German-speaking countries. Indoing so, they delineate a new model for contemplating autobiographical film and video. The essays in this volume examine the parameters shaping the audiovisual self in the Germanophone cultural context across a variety of practices and aesthetic modes, from contemporary artists including Hito Steyerl, Ming Wong, and kate hers to Rolf Dieter Brinkmann's multimedia experiments of the 1970s, and from Helke Misselwitz's challenges to the documentary tradition in the GDR to Peter Liechti's investigations of Swiss ambivalence toward the nation's iconic landscape. The volume thus takes up a number of historically and geographically specific iterations of autobiographical discourse that in each case remain contingent on the space and time in which they are uttered. Contributors: Dagmar Brunow, Steve Choe, Robin Curtis, Tobias Ebbrecht-Hartmann, Angelica Fenner, Marcy Goldberg, Feng-Mei Heberer, Rembert Hüser, Waltraud Maierhofer, Christopher Pavsek, Patrik Sjöberg, Carrie Smith-Prei, Anna Stainton. Robin Curtis is Professor of Theory and Practice of Audiovisual Media at the Heinrich-Heine-University in Düsseldorf, Germany. Angelica Fenner is Associate Professor of German and Cinema Studies at the University of Toronto.
