In this study, we implement a "portrait-corpus approach" (Peters and Coetzee-Van Rooy 2020) to investigate the conceptualisations of the languages Afrikaans and English in 105 language portraits. In this approach, we use participants' reflections about their placement of the two languages on a human silhouette as a linguistic corpus. Relying on quantitative and qualitative analyses using WordSmith, Statistica and Atlas.ti, our study shows that Afrikaans is mainly conceptualised as a language that is located in more peripheral areas of the body (for example, the hands and feet) and, hence, is perceived as less important in participants' repertoires. The central location of English in the head reveals its status as an important language in the participants' multilingual repertoires. We argue that these conceptualisations of Afrikaans and English provide additional insight into the attitudes towards these languages in South Africa.}, language = {en} } @article{Renner2021, author = {Renner, Kaspar}, title = {Die „eine deutsche Nation" und die „vielen kleinen V{\"o}lker"}, series = {{\´E}tudes germaniques : revue trimestrielle de la Soci{\´e}t{\´e} des {\´E}tudes Germaniques}, volume = {303}, journal = {{\´E}tudes germaniques : revue trimestrielle de la Soci{\´e}t{\´e} des {\´E}tudes Germaniques}, number = {3}, editor = {Coignard, Tristan and Portes, Lidwine}, publisher = {Klincksieck}, address = {Paris}, issn = {0014-2115}, doi = {10.3917/eger.303.0301}, pages = {301 -- 320}, year = {2021}, abstract = {This article focuses on Herder's unpublished anthology of Ancient Folk Songs (1773-1775). A close reading of the prefaces reveals the dialectic of the ,national' and its critique that is inherent to the anthology. In the preface to the first book, the collection of folk songs is primarily motivated by the idea of building a German national poetry. This project of nation-building with the means of folk poetry can be considered innovative because it aims to bridge the gap between popular and scholarly culture and to activate the audience in all its cognitive and affective potentials. Moreover, the vision of national poetry is intertwined with a comparative perspective on European folkloristics, as the British culture appears as role model for the creative adaption and tradition of popular ballads and songs. Finally, in the preface to the fourth book of the anthology, the songs of ,wild' foreign peoples are not only discovered as a vital resource for the reinvention of national poetry, but, according to Herder's vision, they also constitute an archive of human affects and expressions that transcends national and cultural boundaries.}, language = {de} } @article{Ungelenk2021, author = {Ungelenk, Johannes}, title = {Von der (Un)gleichzeitigkeit des (Un )Gleichzeitigen}, series = {Komparatistik : Jahrbuch der Deutschen Gesellschaft f{\"u}r Allgemeine und Vergleichende Literaturwissenschaft}, volume = {2019}, journal = {Komparatistik : Jahrbuch der Deutschen Gesellschaft f{\"u}r Allgemeine und Vergleichende Literaturwissenschaft}, editor = {Simonis, Annette and Sexl, Martin and M{\"u}ller, Alexandra}, publisher = {Aisthesis Verlag}, address = {Bielefeld}, isbn = {978-3-8498-1726-8}, issn = {1432-5306}, pages = {95 -- 120}, year = {2021}, abstract = {„Now is the winter of our discontent | Made glorious summer by this son of York" - mit diesen Worten {\"o}ffnet Shakespeares Richard III.

The theoretical foundation of climate science was laid. Ten years later, on the other side of the Channel, a young and ambitious author was working on a comprehensive literary analysis of the French era under the Second Empire. {\´E}mile Zola had probably not heard or read of Tyndall's discovery. However, the article makes the case for reading Zola's Rougon-Macquart as an extensive story of climate change. Zola's literary attempts to capture the defining characteristic of the Second Empire led him to the insight that its various milieus were all part of the same 'climate': that of an all-encompassing warming. Zola suggests that this climate is man-made: the economic success of the Second Empire is based on heating, in a literal and metaphorical sense, as well as on stoking the steam-engines and creating the hypertrophic atmosphere of the hothouse that enhances life and maximises turnover and profit. In contrast to Tyndall and his audience, Zola sensed the catastrophic consequences of this warming: the Second Empire was inevitably moving towards a final d{\´e}b{\^a}cle, i.e. it was doomed to perish in local and 'global' climate catastrophes. The article foregrounds the supplementary status of Tyndall's physical and Zola's literary knowledge. As Zola's striking intuition demonstrates, literature appears to have a privileged approach to the phenomenon of man-induced climate change.}, language = {en} } @article{Ungelenk2021, author = {Ungelenk, Johannes}, title = {An Rilkes (sich) r{\"u}hrenden Figuren r{\"u}hren}, series = {Ber{\"u}hren Denken}, journal = {Ber{\"u}hren Denken}, publisher = {Kulturverlag Kadmos}, address = {Berlin}, isbn = {978-3-86599-497-4}, pages = {213 -- 231}, year = {2021}, language = {de} } @article{ErwigUngelenk2021, author = {Erwig, Andrea and Ungelenk, Johannes}, title = {Vorwort}, series = {Ber{\"u}hren Denken}, journal = {Ber{\"u}hren Denken}, publisher = {Kulturverlag Kadmos}, address = {Berlin}, isbn = {978-3-86599-497-4}, pages = {7 -- 16}, year = {2021}, language = {de} } @article{Ungelenk2021, author = {Ungelenk, Johannes}, title = {Was heißt Ber{\"u}hren Denken?}, series = {Ber{\"u}hren Denken}, journal = {Ber{\"u}hren Denken}, publisher = {Kulturverlag Kadmos}, isbn = {978-3-86599-497-4}, pages = {17 -- 45}, year = {2021}, language = {de} } @article{Ungelenk2021, author = {Ungelenk, Johannes}, title = {Nichts (Luce Irigaray)}, series = {Ber{\"u}hren Lesen}, journal = {Ber{\"u}hren Lesen}, isbn = {978-3-941360-84-6}, pages = {131 -- 138}, year = {2021}, language = {de} } @article{Moser2021, author = {Moser, Natalie}, title = {Praxis und Theorie der Prosa}, series = {Prosa: Theorie, Exegese, Geschichte}, journal = {Prosa: Theorie, Exegese, Geschichte}, publisher = {de Gruyter}, address = {Berlin}, isbn = {978-3-11-073701-1}, doi = {10.1515/9783110731569-009}, pages = {171 -- 196}, year = {2021}, language = {de} } @article{Moser2021, author = {Moser, Natalie}, title = {Wie narrativ sind Krisennarrative?}, publisher = {Brill}, address = {Paderborn}, isbn = {978-3-8467-6411-4}, doi = {10.30965/9783846764114_011}, pages = {203 -- 218}, year = {2021}, language = {de} } @article{Moser2021, author = {Moser, Natalie}, title = {Poetik der Ver{\"a}stelung}, series = {Gegenwartslyrik : Entw{\"u}rfe - Str{\"o}mungen - Kontexte}, journal = {Gegenwartslyrik : Entw{\"u}rfe - Str{\"o}mungen - Kontexte}, publisher = {B{\"u}chner}, address = {Marburg}, isbn = {978-3-96317-281-6}, pages = {45 -- 70}, year = {2021}, language = {de} } @article{WiemannRajaShaswati2021, author = {Wiemann, Dirk and Raja, Ira and Shaswati, Mazumdar}, title = {Postcolonial world literature}, series = {Thesis eleven : critical theory and historical sociology}, volume = {162}, journal = {Thesis eleven : critical theory and historical sociology}, number = {1}, publisher = {Sage}, address = {London [u.a.]}, issn = {0725-5136}, doi = {10.1177/0725513621994707}, pages = {3 -- 17}, year = {2021}, abstract = {Postcolonial criticism has repeatedly debunked the ostensible neutrality of the 'world' of world literature by pointing out that and how the contemporary world - whether conceived in terms of cosmopolitan conviviality or neoliberal globalization - cannot be understood without recourse to the worldly event of Europe's colonial expansion. While we deem this critical perspective indispensable, we simultaneously maintain that to reduce 'the world' to the world-making impact of capital, colonialism, and patriarchy paints an overly deterministic picture that runs the risk of unwittingly reproducing precisely that dominant 'oneworldness' that it aims to critique. Moreover, the mere potentiality of alternative modes of world-making tends to disappear in such a perspective so that the only remaining option to think beyond oneworldness resides in the singularity claim. This insistence on singularity, however, leaves the relatedness of the single units massively underdetermined or denies it altogether. By contrast, we locate world literature in the conflicted space between the imperial imposition of a hierarchically stratified world (to which, as hegemonic forces tell us, 'there is no alternative') and the unrealized 'undivided world' that multiple minor cosmopolitan projects yet have to win. It is precisely the tension between these 'two worlds' that brings into view the crucial centrality not of the nodes in their alleged singularity but their specific relatedness to each other, that both impedes and energizes world literature today and renders it ineluctably postcolonial.}, language = {en} }
