TY - BOOK A1 - Ackermann, Zeno A1 - Karremann, Isabel A1 - Malhotra, Simi A1 - Zaidi, Nishat T1 - Terrains of Consciousness: Multilogical Perspectives on Globalization N2 - TERRAINS OF CONSCIOUSNESS emerges from an Indian-German-Swiss research collaboration. The book makes a case for a phenomenology of globalization that pays attention to locally situated socioeconomic terrains, everyday practices, and cultures of knowledge. This is exemplified in relation to three topics: - the tension between ‘terrain’ and ‘territory’ in Defoe’s ‘Robinson Crusoe’ as a pioneering work of the globalist mentality (chapter 1) - the relationship between established conceptions of feminism and the concrete struggles of women in India since the 19th century (chapter 2) - the exploration of urban space and urban life in writings on India’s capital – from Ahmed Ali to Arundhati Roy (chapter 3). N2 - TERRAINS OF CONSCIOUSNESS emerges from a transnational research project in which scholars from Jamia Millia Islamia (New Delhi), the JMU Würzburg, and the University of Zurich collaborated to evolve new multilogical perspectives on what is usually referred to as globalization. The book makes a case for a PHENOMENOLOGY OF GLOBALIZATION that pays particular attention to the transformation of locally situated and individually experienced socioeconomic terrains, everyday practices, and cultures of knowledge. This perspective is exemplified in relation to three concrete research topics: - the tension between the concepts of ‘TERRAIN’ and ‘TERRITORY’ in parts one and two of Daniel Defoe’s "Robinson Crusoe as" a pioneering work of the globalist mentality (chapter 1) - the relationship between established abstract conceptions of FEMINISM and the concrete emancipatory struggles and life practices of women in India since the early 19th century (chapter 2) - the exploration of URBAN SPACE and URBAN LIFE as a socio-sensorial terrain in fictional and non-fictional writings on or of Delhi – from Ahmed Ali’s "Twilight in Delhi" (1940) to Arundhati Roy’s "The Ministry of Utmost Happiness" (2017). Throughout, the approach of Terrains of Consciousness is informed by the uncomfortable question of how the ‘liberating’ effects of globalization relate to its limiting and disrupting consequences. In these respects, it is vital to ask how globalization affects the dispossessed inhabitants of the world and its various societies.

Although examples appear from the 14th century onwards, no thorough study of last wills and testaments as a specific form of English literature has been undertaken. This neglect may be because, within the broad field of the literary idea of 'legacy', parodies of the testament form ('mock testaments') and serious imitations ('lovers' testaments' etc.) appear in nearly every genre as either single texts or parts of larger ones, themselves crossing the genre boundaries. Then too, a large number of literary testaments come under the heading of 'minor literature' , such as shortlived pamphlets and broadsides. Yet the use which major authors like Shakespeare and Donne made of the literary testament shows that it had become an established form in the 16th century. The texts under examination here would normally be referred to as courtly love poems, political pamphlets, jests, cook-books, nursery rhymes, epic poems, autobiographical verse (Chatterton's Will), modern poems (yeats, Auden and McNeice) or as parts of masques, plays or novels. The aim is to show that one can legitimately speak of all these texts as belonging to a single literary category. In addition to adescription of the history of the literary testament in England, the central problem of this study was one of generic form. The attempt has been made to apply recent ideas of genre theory, i.e., the structuralist generative approach, to texts imitating a non-literary or utility document. This non-literary model is narrowly defined by criteria set by the Church and the Law. Thus it becomes possible to proceed as if the model were the generic norm of a corpus of greatly varying literary texts, thereby avoiding the problems of defming and re-defming selective principles (and of the need to assume a hypothetical 'first form') for the gathering of texts. The testament is a private re cord especially weil suited for studies of this kind because of its traditional fixed form and wide popularization from the Middle Ages onwards. In its complexity, the testament allows for more variation of style, content and purpose than does the letter, but is more disciplined in its form. In categorizing the testaments as such, it is necessary to study contemporary connotations and to defme the basic structure of the model. A selection of genuine, nonficticious testaments drawn up by members of the University of Cambridge in the 16th century has been examined for this purpose. (The 16th and 17th centuries can be taken as the most productive of literary testament writing.) There seems to exist a dichotomy in the testament itself; on the one hand there are mundane considerations (bequeathing of property) and on the other thoughts directed towards the life to come. Ihis dichotomy is observable not only on the content level, but also on the formal level and the semantic level. Ihe relation between the two testamentary elements, which is characterized by polarization, can be postulated as the basic structure of the testament and as the genre norm of the literary texts examined here. Taking into account the fact that the testament has been of varying importance in various ages, a wide selection of literary imitations of the testament from Chaucer to Yeats and after is studied in detail. A distinction may be drawn between mock testaments and serious imitations, with the former representing rebellion against the exalted authorities behind the testament. When the theoretical rebellion coincides with the practical function of satire or attack in a particular case, then the mock testament is raised to a true literary form. The serious imitation, on the other hand, makes use of the metaphysical element of the testament, and is directed to a worldly being or to the 'human condition' (as in examples drawn from the modern poets). Its problems and aim assign this study to the wider fjeld of genre research, particularly research into the relationship between genuine documents (utility texts) and their literary imitations.

Januar 2019 bis 6. Februar 2019, Gesamtleitung: Isabel Karremann). Bearbeitet von Guido Fackler N2 - Der Erste Weltkrieg und die Nachkriegszeit: Ein Thema, zu dem man scheinbar schon alles gehört und gelesen hat. Dass dem nicht so ist, zeigen Studierende der Philosophischen Fakultät der Universität Würzburg mit ihrer Ausstellung „Krieg │ Frieden. Der Erste Weltkrieg und die Nachkriegszeit“. Ihre Beiträge behandeln Politik, Kunst und Literatur in den am Krieg beteiligten Ländern. Nach einer historischen Einführung, die auch die Nachkriegssituation in Würzburg themati-siert, vermitteln Texte von Gottfried Benn einen distanzierten Blick auf das Kampfgeschehen: Der Dichter wirkte während des Kriegs als Arzt hinter der Front und verarbeitete seine Erlebnisse u.a. in den „Rönne-Novellen“. Anhand literarischer Portraits von Schützen aus dem Senegal lässt sich wiederum nachvollziehen, wie sich der Blick auf die aus den Kolonien verpflichteten Soldaten in der französischen Literatur widerspiegelt. Unterschiedliche Reaktionen auf den Ersten Weltkrieg und die Nachkriegszeit werden demgegenüber in der italienischen und deutschen Kunst sichtbar, während die hierzulande aus propagandistischen Gründen eröffneten Kriegsmuseen in der Nachkriegszeit schlossen oder sich der Friedensarbeit widmeten. Stimmen namhafter italienischer Politiker, Journalisten, Romanciers und Dichter bringen zum Ausdruck, wie der „Große Krieg / la Grande Guerra“ Italiens kollektives Gedächtnis prägte. Auch in Großbritannien ist das Gedenken daran viel stärker als hierzulande: So prägen die von dem Gedicht „In Flanders Fields“ inspirierten Mohnblumen als „Remembrance Poppies“ die britische Erinnerungskultur bis in unsere Gegenwart. Individuell gestaltete Text- und Bildtafeln, eine Hörstation mit Leseecke sowie eine Soundinstallation und Bildprojektion am Eröffnungsabend machen den Ausstellungsbesuch informativ und abwechslungsreich. Die interdisziplinäre Ausstellung wurde von rund 90 Studierenden der Fächer Anglistik, Amerikanistik, Germanistik, Geschichtswissenschaft, Kunstgeschichte, Museologie (Ausstellungsmanagement), Romanistik und Slavistik im Wintersemester 2018/19.

Der Einfluss von William Blake auf Van Morrison. N2 - Diese Arbeit schildert auf der Basis einer Analyse der intermedialen Struktur der Werke zweier Künstler aus unterschiedlichen Jahrhunderten die Transportierung eines mystischen Selbstverständnisses, das als Tiefenstruktur der zugrundeliegenden Werke ausgemacht wird. Deshalb sieht diese Arbeit beide Künstler als christliche Mystiker an, deren Weltbild keine grundlegenden Unterschiede aufweist. Darüberhinaus wird über diese beiden Autoren versucht die kontrovers diskutierte Aktualität von Mystik in der Gegenwart herauszustellen. Zentraler Teil und Ausgangspunkt der Ergebnisse ist hierbei die Analyse eines mystischen Wertesystems, das sich in den Prophecies von William Blake finden lässt und das sich in wesentlichen Punkten auf die Werke von Van Morrison übertragen lässt. N2 - This work doesn't deal with two artists in the way that it compares their lyrics in an immanent way. Moreover, it tries to show that William Blake and Van Morrison use differnet means of art in order to express the same intention. That is mainly a mystic view of the world which is embodied in the heart of their work. Both artists regard art as a healing force. The central aspects are summarized in a chapter which deals thouroughly with a mystic system that William Blake developed in his prophecies that were not published throughout his life. Somehow, it can be called the religious centre of his work. Van Morrison obviously uses this system in some of his songs, too. So, that finally both artists are regarded as christian mystics. Consequently, the contemporary view of mystic has to be discussed.

Engaged Scholarship between National and Transnational Frames N2 - Can cultural studies attend to the problems of our globalized world? Or is this project of “engaged scholarship” too deeply rooted in the parochial terrain of the national? This collection of essays – the first volume in the new JMU Cultural Studies publication series – attends to this vital yet difficult question. Based on joint seminars bringing together emerging scholars from Germany and India, the contributions confront “classic texts” from US-American, British, and Indian cultural studies with the specific concerns and contemporary perspectives of the authors. The collection thus tests the potentials of the tradition to speak to the transnational as well as the national environments of the very present. Emphasis is placed on Marxist and feminist legacies, which are then projected into the domains of contemporary disability, food, and film studies.

Digital discourse as the formation of new semiotic phenomena has crowned the rapid scientific and technological progress. Researchers' scientific achievements represented in the book are systemic and valid in terms of evidence-based narratives, which reflect the transformational horizon of information theory, communication theory, and theory of linguodidactics in modern English verbal, creative and digital environments. The book represents an integrated approach to the study of modern English as an open synergetic system, which requires a description of the relationship between verbal and nonverbal notions in digital space. The book integrates such innovative perspectives as the interaction of natural English and programming languages, cyber aggression as a communicative pattern in English-language digital discourse, ethics, and democratization of modern English language, relevant developments in the field of English language as a Foreign Language, and other related issues. A complex focus of the book in the realm of modern English-language communication concerns verbal and nonverbal notions analyzed in the context of socio-cultural and digital communicative spaces.

Facetten italienischer Epistolographie vom 14. Jahrhundert bis heute N2 - Im Liebesbrief gibt die Frau – mit Roland Barthes gesprochen – der Abwesenheit des geliebten Gegenübers Gestalt. Um Begriffe wie ‚Liebe‘, ‚Absenz‘ und ‚weibliches Begehren‘ kreisen die meisten der in diesem Sammelband analysierten italienischen Briefe von Frauen aus dem 14. Jahrhundert bis in die Gegenwart. Ziel ist es, anhand transdisziplinärer Methoden die Relevanz dieser zwischen Pragmatik und Literarizität oszillierenden Texte aufzuzeigen und die gestalterische, formgebende Spezifität weiblicher Briefkunst auszuloten. Im Zentrum stehen originelle Facetten der Amor-Inszenierung und Affektmodellierung, denen sich ein Ausblick auf aktuelle Tendenzen und didaktische Perspektiven auf das Medium Brief anschließt. N2 - La scelta di lettere di donne, dal quattordicesimo secolo ad oggi, presentata in questo volume, ruota intorno ai concetti di “amore”, “assenza” e “desiderio”. Le analisi sviluppate mirano – attraverso approcci transdisciplinari - a mostrare l’importanza di questi testi che oscillano fra pragmatica e letterarietà e ad indagare i tratti specifici con cui l’epistolografia femminile in volgare “raffigura e conferisce una forma”. Nella lettera d’amore, infatti, per dirla con Barthes, la donna conferisce una forma all’assenza dell’amato. Le sfaccettature originali della messa in scena dell’amore e delle rappresentazioni dell’affetto costituiscono il fulcro argomentativo di questo volume che si conclude con uno sguardo sulle prospettive attuali e sulle opportunità di utilizzare la lettera come strumento didattico in una lezione di lingua italiana.
