The Ghost Story 1840-1920: A Cultural History examines the British ghost story within the political contexts of the long nineteenth century. By relating the ghost story to economic, national, colonial and gendered contexts' it provides a critical re-evaluation of the period.The conjuring of a political discourse of spectrality during the nineteenth century enables a culturally sensitive reconsideration of the work of writers including Dickens, Collins, Charlotte Riddell, Vernon Lee, May Sinclair, Kipling, Le Fanu, Henry James and M.R. James. Additionally, a chapter on the interpretation of spi

A daring new view of Sebald's works and the reading practice they call forth. W. G. Sebald was born in 1944 in Germany. He found his way as a young academic to England and a career as professor of German. Only between the late 1980s and his untimely death in 2001 did he concentrate on nonacademic writing, crafting a new kind of prose work that shares features with but remains distinct from the novel, essay, travel writing, and memoir forms and gaining elevation to the first rank of writers internationally. No less a critic than Susan Sontag was moved to ask "Is literary greatness still possible?," implying that it was and that she had found it embodied in his writing. Deane Blackler explores Sebald's biography before analyzing the reading practice his textscall forth: that of a "disobedient reader," a proactive reader challenged to question the text by Sebald's peculiar use of poetic language, the pseudoautobiographical voice of his narrators, the seemingly documentary photographs he inserted into his books, and by his exquisite representations of place. Blackler reads Sebald's fiction as adventurous and disobedient in its formulation, an imaginative revitalization of literary fiction for the third millennium. Deane Blackler received her Ph.D. in Comparative Literature in 2005 from the University of Tasmania.

This volume discusses the so-called Oneirocriticon of Achmet , the most important Byzantine work on dream interpretation which was written in Greek in the 10th century and has greatly influenced subsequent dreambooks in Byzantine Greek, Medieval Latin, and modern European languages. By comparing the Oneirocriticon with the 2nd-century A.D. dreambook of Artemidoros (translated into Arabic in the 9th century) and five medieval Arabic dreambooks, this study demonstrates that the Oneirocriticon is a Christian Greek adaption of Islamic Arabic material and that the similarities between it and Artemidoros are due to the influence of Artemidoros on the Arabic sources of the Byzantine work. The Oneirocriticon 's textual tradition, its language, the identities of its author and patron, and its position among other Byzantine translations from Arabic into Greek are also investigated.

Best known for his collaborations with Bertolt Brecht, composer Hanns Eisler also set nineteenth-century German poetry to music that both absorbs and disturbs the Lieder tradition. This book traces Eisler's art songs (German: Kunstlieder) through twentieth-century political crises from World War I to Nazi-era exile and from Eisler's postwar deportation from the U.S. to the ideological pressures he faced in the early German Democratic Republic. His art songs are presented not as an escape from the "dark times" Brecht lamented but rather as a way to intervene in the nationalist appropriation of aesthetic material. This book follows a chronological arc from Eisler's early Morgenstern songs to his Lied-like setting of Brecht's 1939 "To Those Who Come After" and his treatment of Hölderlin's poetry in the 1940s Hollywood Songbook; the final two chapters focus on Eisler's Goethe settings in the early GDR, followed by his late Serious Songs recalling Brahms in their reflective approach. In its combination of textual and musicological analysis, this book balances technical and lay vocabulary to reach readers with or without musical background. The author's practical perspective as a singer also informs the book, as she addresses not only what Eisler asks of the voice but also the challenge of evoking both intimacy and distance in his politically fraught art songs. Heidi Hart holds a PhD in German Studies from Duke University. She is an instructor in the College of Humanities and Social Sciences at Utah State University.

Bien lire un texte littéraire est difficile. La méthode est sujet de débats. Les articles de Paul Delbouille rassemblés dans ce volume reposent sur une conception exigeante de la lecture, qui fait appel à l'attention et à la sensibilité, mais aussi à la rigueur pour atteindre ce que le texte dit effectivement. Cette soumission scrupuleuse à ce qui est écrit et déchiffrable fait de l'auteur le tenant d'un certain classicisme méthodologique, dont la fécondité, fort contestée dans les années 70, est aujourd'hui redécouverte. Les diverses pratiques littéraires qui, de près ou de plus loin, mais nécessairement, s'appuient sur cette conception de la lecture, sont illustrées ici : analyse textuelle (exercice visant "à apprendre à lire"), analyse stylistique, théorie littéraire, édition de textes, histoire littéraire. Ce recueil d'articles s'adresse aux chercheurs et aux enseignants qu'intéresse la littérature française. Ils y trouveront à la fois des réflexions sur la méthode et des études sur divers auteurs, notamment sur Benjamin Constant. L'ouvrage est offert à Paul Delbouille par ses collègues, ses élèves et ses amis à l'occasion de son accession à l'honorariat.

Ziel der vorliegenden Studie ist es, bildungssprachliche Mittel, die Grundschüler/-innen innerhalb von Sachunterrichtstexten produzieren, zu identifizieren und diese hinsichtlich ihres Form-Funktions-Zusammenhangs innerhalb von Sachtexten zu untersuchen. Datengrundlage der Studie stellen 474 Texte von Lernenden der zweiten bis vierten Jahrgangsstufe dar. Um der Komplexität des Forschungsgegenstands zu entsprechen, wurden mittels einer methodenübergreifenden Triangulation mit sequentiellem Design zunächst alle 474 Texte mit Hilfe einer quantitativen Frequenzanalyse auf Grundlage eines deduktiv entwickelten Kategoriensystems auf die Realisierung bildungssprachlicher Mittel hin untersucht. Nachfolgend wurde mittels verschränktem Sampling ein Teilkorpus (n=28) des Datenmaterials ausgewählt und eine inhaltlich strukturierende qualitative Inhaltsanalyse auf Grundlage eines deduktiv-induktiv entwickelten Kategoriensystems durchgeführt, um die bildungssprachlichen Mittel auf ihre Funktion zurück zu beziehen. Die Ergebnisse der Untersuchung ergänzen die Befunde bisheriger Studien und liefern bedeutsame Hinweise für die zukünftige Erforschung bildungssprachlicher Mittel bzw. bildungssprachlicher Fähigkeiten. Gleichzeitig ermöglichen die Befunde Rückschlüsse für die Gestaltung eines sprachsensiblen Fachunterrichts.
