| gabriela stoicea: Fictions of Legibility Gabriela Stoicea, 2020-03-03 Gabriela Stoicea examines how the incidence and role of physical descriptions in German novels changed between 1771 and 1929 in response to developments in the study of the human face and body. As well as engaging the tools and methods of literary analysis, the study uses a cultural studies approach to offer a constellation of ideas and polemics surrounding the readability of the human body. By including discussions from the medical sciences, epistemology, and aesthetics, the book draws out the multi-faceted permutations of corporeal legibility, as well as its relevance for the development of the novel and for facilitating inter-disciplinary dialogue. |

| gabriela stoicea: New Directions in Jewish American and Holocaust Literatures Victoria Aarons, Holli Levitsky, 2019-02-28 What does it mean to read, and to teach, Jewish American and Holocaust literatures in the early decades of the twenty-first century? New directions and new forms of expression have emerged, both in the invention of narratives and in the methodologies and discursive approaches taken toward these texts. The premise of this book is that despite moving farther away in time, the Holocaust continues to shape and inform contemporary Jewish American writing. Divided into analytical and pedagogical sections, the chapters present a range of possibilities for thinking about these literatures. Contributors address such genres as biography, the graphic novel, alternate history, midrash, poetry, and third-generation and hidden-child Holocaust narratives. Both canonical and contemporary authors are covered, including Michael Chabon, Nathan Englander, Anne Frank, Dara Horn, Joe Kupert, Philip Roth, and William Styron. |

| gabriela stoicea: The Radical Enlightenment in Germany , 2018-07-03 This volume investigates the impact of the Radical Enlightenment on German culture during the eighteenth century, taking recent work by Jonathan Israel as its point of departure. The collection documents the cultural dimension of the debate on the Radical Enlightenment. In a series of readings of known and lesser-known fictional and essayistic texts, individual contributors show that these can be read not only as articulating a conflict between Enlightenment and Counter-Enlightenment, but also as documents of a debate about the precise nature of Enlightenment. At stake is the question whether the Enlightenment should aim to be an atheist, materialist, and political movement that wants to change society, or, in spite of its belief in rationality, should respect monarchy, aristocracy, and established religion. Contributors are: Mary Helen Dupree, Sean Franzel, Peter Höyng, John A. McCarthy, Monika Nenon, Carl Niekerk, Daniel Purdy, William Rasch, Ann Schmiesing, Paul S. Spalding, Gabriela Stoicea, Birgit Tautz, Andrew Weeks, Chunjie Zhang |
| gabriela stoicea: The Maya Art of Speaking Writing Tiffany D. Creegan Miller, 2022-05-24 Challenging the distinctions between “old” and “new” media and narratives about the deprecation of orality in favor of inscribed forms, The Maya Art of Speaking Writing draws from Maya concepts of tz’ib’ (recorded knowledge) and tzij, choloj, and ch’owen (orality) to look at expressive work across media and languages. Based on nearly a decade of fieldwork in the Guatemalan highlands, Tiffany D. Creegan Miller discusses images that are sonic, pictorial, gestural, and alphabetic. She reveals various forms of creativity and agency that are woven through a rich media landscape in Indigenous Guatemala, as well as Maya diasporas in Mexico and the United States. Miller discusses how technologies of inscription and their mediations are shaped by human editors, translators, communities, and audiences, as well as by voices from the natural world. These texts push back not just on linear and compartmentalized Western notions of media but also on the idea of the singular author, creator, scholar, or artist removed from their environment. The persistence of orality and the interweaving of media forms combine to offer a challenge to audiences to participate in decolonial actions through language preservation. The Maya Art of Speaking Writing calls for centering Indigenous epistemologies by doing research in and through Indigenous languages as we engage in debates surrounding Indigenous literatures, anthropology, decoloniality, media studies, orality, and the digital humanities. |

| gabriela stoicea: Witness Between Languages Peter Davies, Peter J. Davies, 2018 A growing body of scholarship is making visible the contribution of translators to the creation, preservation, and transmission of knowledge about the Holocaust. The discussion has tended to be theoretical or to concentrate on exposing the distorted translations of texts by important witnesses such as Anne Frank or Elie Wiesel. There is therefore a need for a positive, concrete, and contextually aware approach to the translation of Holocaust testimonies that acknowledges the achievements of translators while being sensitive to the consequences of particular translation strategies. Peter Davies's study proceeds from the assumption that translators are active co-creators whose work does not simply mediate a pre-existing text, but creates a representation of that text for a new readership in a specific context. Translators of Holocaust testimonies, then, provide a form of textual commentary that works through ideas about witnessing, historical truth, and the meaning of the Holocaust. In this way they are important co-creators of knowledge about the Holocaust and its legacy. The study focuses on translations between English and German, and from other languages (principally French, Russian, and Polish) into English and German. It works through a number of case studies, showing how making translation and its effects visible contributes to a clearer understanding of how knowledge about the Holocaust has been and continues to be created and mediated. Peter Davies is Professor of German at the University of Edinburgh. |

| gabriela stoicea: Karl Freund Gavin Schmitt, 2022-02-15 Karl Freund is the most important film pioneer you've never heard of. From the silent film era to the rise of the American sitcom, Freund was there at every turn. Countless camera techniques can be traced back to his unchained camera. His lighting setup for filming I Love Lucy live remains standard to this day. He was the man behind the lens for many influential and award-winning films, from Metropolis to The Good Earth to Key Largo. This biography is the first book-length look at one of the world's greatest cameramen. It details the events of his early life, his entrance into the world of film, his work in both Germany and America, and his legacy, while also putting his life and films into the historical context of the 20th century. The author gives particular attention to Freund's role in the early horror films Der Golem, Dracula, Murders in the Rue Morgue, The Mummy, and Mad Love. |
| gabriela stoicea: Goethe Yearbook 27 Patricia Anne Simpson, Birgit Tautz, Sean Franzel, 2020-06-15 A new Forum section focuses on the impact of Digital Humanities on Goethe scholarship and on eighteenth-century German Studies, alongside articles on a diverse range of authors and topics.The Goethe Yearbook is a publication of the Goethe Society of North America, showcasing North American and international scholarship on Goethe and other authors and aspects of the Goethezeit. Volume 27 features the yearbook''s first Forum, a discussion of the impact of Digital Humanities (DH) and computational criticism on Goethe scholarship and eighteenth-century German Studies more broadly. For this launch, invited contributors were askedto consider the canon in comparison to the great unread (Margaret Cohen): the vast expanse of uncanonized texts. The contributions evince approaches that go beyond the established binary of scholarly methods vs. data sciences; they also explore DH as a way of navigating the gendered fault lines of canon formation. Beyond the Forum, there are articles on Goethe''s self-marketing, on several of his major works, and on pivotal topics in them (orientation, der Gang, and transgression); on nascent anthropology, on Creativity Studies, and on other eighteenth-century figures (Rahel Levin Varnhagen, Karl Phillip Moritz).

| gabriela stoicea: Sex Slave in Cinema Aga Skrodzka, 2025-03-31 This book examines the visual politics of the cinematic figure of the 'sex slave' from its origins in silent film to its iterations in blaxploitation cinema, European art cinema, Nollywood, and, in its most concentrated form, the Hollywood blockbuster thriller. Through close analysis of several film texts that is informed by feminist theory, visual studies, critical race studies, and the political economy of sex work, this book argues that the sex slave has long functioned as a disciplinary spectacle that simultaneously commodifies and punishes female flesh. The sex slave is used to 'sell' a libidinal fantasy of rescue, not of the trafficked woman or child, but of the very economic and social order that exploits them. |
| gabriela stoicea: Falling Short Aleksandar Stevic, 2020-04-09 A paradox haunts the bildungsroman: few protagonists successfully complete the process of maturation and socialization that ostensibly defines the form. From the despondent endings of Dickens’s Great Expectations and Meredith’s The Ordeal of Richard Feverel to the suicide of Balzac’s Lucien de Rubempré and the demise of Eliot’s Maggie and Tom Tulliver, the nineteenth-century bildungsroman offers narratives of failure, paralysis, and destruction: goals cannot be achieved, identities are impossible to forge, and the narrative of socialization routinely crumbles. Examining the novels of Stendhal, Honoré de Balzac, Charles Dickens, Charlotte Brontë, Henry James, Samuel Butler, James Joyce, and Marcel Proust, Falling Short reveals not only a crisis of character development but also a crisis of plotting and narrative structure. From the inception of literary realism in the 1830s to the height of modernism a century later, the bildungsroman presents itself as a key symptom of modern Europe’s inability to envision either coherent subjectivity or successful socialization. Rather than articulating an arc of personal development, Stević argues, the bildungsroman tends to condemn its heroes to failure because our modern understanding of both individual subjectivity and social success remains riddled with contradictions. Placing primary texts in conversation with the central historical debates of their time, Falling Short offers a revisionist history of the realist and modernist bildungsroman, unearthing the neglected role of defeat in the history of the genre. |
| gabriela stoicea: Hitler's Geographies Paolo Giaccaria, Claudio Minca, 2016-04-21 Lebensraum: the entitlement of “legitimate” Germans to living space. Entfernung: the expulsion of “undesirables” to create empty space for German resettlement. During his thirteen years leading Germany, Hitler developed and made use of a number of powerful geostrategical concepts such as these in order to justify his imperialist expansion, exploitation, and genocide. As his twisted manifestation of spatial theory grew in Nazi ideology, it created a new and violent relationship between people and space in Germany and beyond. With Hitler’s Geographies, editors Paolo Giaccaria and Claudio Minca examine the variety of ways in which spatial theory evolved and was translated into real-world action under the Third Reich. They have gathered an outstanding collection by leading scholars, presenting key concepts and figures as well exploring the undeniable link between biopolitical power and spatial expansion and exclusion. |
| gabriela stoicea: Translating War Angela Kershaw, 2018-07-20 This book examines the role played by the international circulation of literature in constructing cultural memories of the Second World War. War writing has rarely been read from the point of view of translation even though war is by definition a multilingual event, and knowledge of the Second World War and the Holocaust is mediated through translated texts. Here, the author opens up this field of research through analysis of several important works of French war fiction and their English translations. The book examines the wartime publishing structures which facilitated literary exchanges across national borders, the strategies adopted by translators of war fiction, the relationships between translated war fiction and dominant national memories of the war, and questions of multilingualism in war writing. In doing so, it sheds new light on the political and ethical questions that arise when the trauma of war is represented in fiction and through translation. This engaging work will appeal to students and scholars of translation, cultural memory, war fiction and Holocaust writing. |
| gabriela stoicea: Women in Science Fiction and Fantasy Robin Anne Reid, 2008-12-30 Works of science fiction and fantasy increasingly explore gender issues, feature women as central characters, and are written by women writers. This book examines women's contributions to science fiction and fantasy across a range of media and genres, such as fiction, nonfiction, film, television, art, comics, graphic novels, and music. The first volume offers survey essays on major topics, such as sexual identities, fandom, women's writing groups, and feminist spirituality; the second provides alphabetically arranged entries on more specific subjects, such as Hindu mythology, Toni Morrison, magical realism, and Margaret Atwood. Entries are written by expert contributors and cite works for further reading, and the set closes with a selected, general bibliography. Students and general readers love science fiction and fantasy. And science fiction and fantasy works increasingly explore gender issues, feature women as central characters, and are written by women writers. Older works demonstrate attitudes toward women in times past, while more recent works grapple with contemporary social issues. This book helps students use science fiction and fantasy to understand the contributions of women writers, the representation of women in the media, and the experiences of women in society. |
| gabriela stoicea: France’s Memorial Landscape Sophie Fuggle, 2023-09-15 During August 1942 several women jumped to their deaths from a second story window at the tile factory in the small town of Milles near Aix-en-Provence. Between 1939 and 1942 the factory assumed various roles as internment camp, transit camp and ultimately deportation camp. This book is about the view from the ‘suicide window’ as it is presented within the Camp des Milles memorial museum which opened in 2012. It explores how this view might help us to understand and imagine the world of internment and deportation camps operating in France during the Second World War and their memorial today. The book uses the views framed by the window to think critically about the museography of the memorial within the wider context of France’s relatively late acknowledgment of its role in the persecution of the Jews during the Second World War. |

| gabriela stoicea: The Enlightenment that Failed Jonathan I. Israel, 2019-11-28 The Enlightenment that Failed explores the growing rift between those Enlightenment trends and initiatives that appealed exclusively to elites and those aspiring to enlighten all of society by raising mankind's awareness, freedoms, and educational level generally. Jonathan I. Israel explains why the democratic and radical secularizing tendency of the Western Enlightenment, after gaining some notable successes during the revolutionary era (1775-1820) in numerous countries, especially in Europe, North America, and Spanish America, ultimately failed. He argues that a populist, Robespierriste tendency, sharply at odds with democratic values and freedom of expression, gained an ideological advantage in France, and that the negative reaction this generally provoked caused a more general anti-Enlightenment reaction, a surging anti-intellectualism combined with forms of religious revival that largely undermined the longings of the deprived, underprivileged, and disadvantaged, and ended by helping, albeit often unwittingly, conservative anti-Enlightenment ideologies to dominate the scene. The Enlightenment that Failed relates both the American and the French revolutions to the Enlightenment in a markedly different fashion from how this is usually done, showing how both great revolutions were fundamentally split between bitterly opposed and utterly incompatible ideological tendencies. Radical Enlightenment, which had been an effective ideological challenge to the prevailing monarchical-aristocratic status quo, was weakened, then almost entirely derailed and displaced from the Western consciousness, in the 1830s and 1840s by the rise of Marxism and other forms of socialism. |

| gabriela stoicea: Lo viril y lo viscoso Miguel Rivas Venegas, 2024-11-07 La historiadora del arte Linda Nochlin sostenía que toda política del cuerpo es una política de género, específica de un determinado periodo y de ciertas prácticas artísticas. Un buen ejemplo es el presente libro, dedicado a exudar la masculinidad en la formación del franquismo: ¿cuál es el cuerpo bueno y cuál el malo? ¿Dónde empieza la gloriosa erección? ¿Cómo se reconoce a una babosa? ¿Cómo se representa al que se asesina? Mediante un itinerario trazado con mojones iconográficos presentes en numerosos formatos expresivos de la época (pintura, literatura, cine, escultura, cómic, arquitectura), Rivas Venegas construye un formidable artilugio iconológico con el que destapar el modo en que el otro (ese hombre sin hombría, esa furia sin tesón y flácida) fue creado por el franquismo durante la guerra y en los primeros años de su victoria. Pero lo notable en el argumentario funcional de este libro es que habla en presente, aunque el temperamento de su autor no lo haga obvio. Solo un ermitaño podría desconocer los renovados discursos supremacistas de género que se despliegan en la actualidad. Atenazados por lo que consideran una pérdida de sustancia y sujetos a una falsa imposibilidad natural de procesar la rica complejidad que proporciona el feminismo(s) y el fin de la heteronormatividad, estos nuevos profetas de la virilidad se presentan con yelmos sobre torreones o en postura de jarras llevando calzones deportivos y sudaderas militares sobre los picos de las montañas, repartiendo ceniceros y defendiendo la mística penetradora de la muerte taurina. |

| gabriela stoicea: Moving Memories Rebecca Großmann, 2021-10-11 Am Beispiel dreier ausgewählter Spielfilme aus deutscher, polnischer und polnisch-deutscher Produktion – Unsere Mütter, unsere Väter (2013), Warschau '44 (2014) und Unser letzter Sommer (2015) – analysiert die Autorin das Erinnern im modernen Spielfilm im Spannungsfeld von Transnationalisierung und Renationalisierung in Polen und Deutschland heute. Die untersuchten Filme eint das Motiv des Erwachsenwerdens ganz normaler junger Menschen im Zweiten Weltkrieg, das einen Nährboden für den Bruch mit etablierten Erzählweisen und die Umdeutung etablierter Täter-Opfer-Dichotomien bietet. Mit wechselndem Fokus auf die Produktions-, Narrations- und Rezeptionskontexte der drei Spielfilme wird beleuchtet, welche Rolle die jungen Filmemacher einer Generation Postmemory spielen, wie in den Filmen über die Vergangenheit erzählt wird und wie diese breitenwirksam und transnational rezipierten Erinnerungsfilme in Debatten zum Umgang mit der Geschichte in Deutschland und Polen eingebettet werden. |
| gabriela stoicea: Teoria do cinema Thomas Elsaesser, Malte Hagener, 2020-12-17 Qual é a relação entre cinema e espectador? Essa é a questão fundamental para a teoria do cinema, que Thomas Elsaesser e Malte Hagener colocam no centro desse livro esclarecedor e envolvente. Todo tipo de cinema (e toda teoria do cinema) primeiro imagina um espectador ideal e, então, mapeia determinadas interações dinâmicas entre a tela e a mente, o corpo e os sentidos do espectador. Usando sete configurações distintas de espectador e tela, que passam progressivamente de relações exteriores para relações interiores, os autores rememoram os estágios mais importantes da teoria do cinema, desde os primórdios até o presente – das teorias neorrealista e modernista às teorias psicanalítica, do dispositivo, fenomenológica e cognitiva, incluindo interseções recentes com a filosofia e a neurologia. O livro também discute filmes contemporâneos, como Ela e Gravidade, e traz ainda um capítulo que situa a teoria do cinema em plena era digital. Referência por sua abordagem inovadora, este livro trabalha o horizonte conceitual do audiovisual através da gravidade que os filmes impõem na recepção. Obras-chave foram escolhidas para repercutir uma densa rede conceitual, com raiz nos principais pensadores do cinema nos séculos XX e XXI. Trata-se de reflexão atual que tem a singularidade de trabalhar com filmes recentes e clássicos. Advoga a simultaneidade de formas estilísticas e pensamento, negando qualquer tipo de flecha teleológica evolucionista. Para tal, os autores fazem uma espécie de mapeamento do que seria um corpo fílmico, mostrando sua superfície sensorial e suas faculdades perceptivas, táteis ou sensório-motoras. São elas que constelam, na história, muitos pontos de contato do cinema com os sentidos humanos e o corpo do espectador. Fernão Pessoa Ramos |

| gabriela stoicea: Herder John K. Noyes, 2015-11-26 Among his generation of intellectuals, the eighteenth-century German philosopher Johann Gottfried Herder is recognized both for his innovative philosophy of language and history and for his passionate criticism of racism, colonialism, and imperialism. A student of Immanuel Kant, Herder challenged the idea that anyone – even the philosophers of the Enlightenment – could have a monopoly on truth. In Herder: Aesthetics against Imperialism, John K. Noyes plumbs the connections between Herder’s anti-imperialism, often acknowledged but rarely explored in depth, and his epistemological investigations. Noyes argues that Herder’s anti-rationalist epistemology, his rejection of universal conceptions of truth, knowledge, and justice, constitutes the first attempt to establish not just a moral but an epistemological foundation for anti-imperialism. Engaging with the work of postcolonial theorists such Dipesh Chakrabarty and Gayatri Spivak, this book is a valuable reassessment of Enlightenment anti-imperialism that demonstrates Herder’s continuing relevance to postcolonial studies today. |
| gabriela stoicea: Alfred Döblin Robert Craig, 2021-08-30 'If you're satisfied with yourself, beware of Döblin.' It was with this temptation for brave souls that Günter Grass closed his tribute on the tenth anniversary of the great modernist's death. Alfred Döblin is best known for his city masterpiece of 1929, Berlin Alexanderplatz. But the journey to the 'Alex' takes us along pathways both less familiar and every bit as intriguing. In the decades before his flight into exile in 1933, this medical doctor-cum-writer broke new ground both as an Expressionist storyteller and an author of experimental historical and science fiction. Not only that, but he made radical contributions to poetics, aesthetics and nature philosophy. The focus of this innovative study, one of the first of its kind in English, is a thorny and intractable relationship that perennially fascinated Döblin: that of nature and the self. Robert Craig shows how his eclectic works before 1933 traced out an evolving dialectic between the human and the natural, and between the subject and its forms and modes of embodiment. The constellations that emerged remain as illuminating as they are unsettling and discomfiting. Robert Craig teaches German and English literary and cultural studies at the Otto-Friedrich Universität in Bamberg. |

Paul Finkelman establishes an authoritative account of each justice’s proslavery position, the reasoning behind his opposition to black freedom, and the personal incentives that embedded racism ever deeper in American civic life. |
| gabriela stoicea: Film Theory Thomas Elsaesser, Malte Hagener, 2015-03-12 What is the relationship between cinema and spectator? This is the key question for film theory, and one that Thomas Elsaesser and Malte Hagener put at the center of their insightful and engaging book, now revised from its popular first edition. Every kind of cinema (and every film theory) first imagines an ideal spectator, and then maps certain dynamic interactions between the screen and the spectator’s mind, body and senses. Using seven distinctive configurations of spectator and screen that move progressively from ‘exterior’ to ‘interior’ relationships, the authors retrace the most important stages of film theory from its beginnings to the present—from neo-realist and modernist theories to psychoanalytic, ‘apparatus,’ phenomenological and cognitivist theories, and including recent cross-overs with philosophy and neurology. This new and updated edition of Film Theory: An Introduction through the Senses has been extensively revised and rewritten throughout, incorporating discussion of contemporary films like Her and Gravity, and including a greatly expanded final chapter, which brings film theory fully into the digital age. |
