Zum Wandel der Farbwahrnehmung um 1900 in der Literatur, im Kunstdiskurs und in der Konsumkultur
Author:
Der Band PROVOKATION FARBE fokussiert sich auf den Wandel der Farbwahrnehmung um 1900 in der Literatur, im Kunstdiskurs und in der Konsumkultur. Innovative Fortschritte im Bereich der chemischen Farbherstellung und deren Verwendung zur Lebensgestaltung, der Erfindung des Farbenlichts und dessen Einführung in Großstädten und insgesamt der nach und nach farbiger werdenden Kunst und Konsumkultur zwischen dem Fin de Siècle bis in die Nachkriegszeit des 1. Weltkrieges lenken gesteigerte Aufmerksamkeit auf Farbe, die mit der Erforschung von Farbsynästhesien in der Medizin, der philosophischen und literarischen Ergründung der Sprache der Farbe (Benjamin, Wittgenstein sowie Rilke, Hofmannsthal, Dauthendey, George, etc.), der Konzentration auf Farbe in der Architektur und Kunst (Taut, Klee, Kandinsky, etc.), in der Malerei und Mode (Sonja Delaunay), im Tanz (Fouller, etc.) und in Farblichtkino, -theater und -musik (Kandinsky, Schönberg, Skrjabin, Wyschnegradsky) die gesamte Gesellschaft erfasst und wahrnehmungsprägend wirkt.

The proposed book series will publish cutting-edge research on the Anthropocene with a dual focus on both Africa and Asia, as well as the complex relations connecting these two continents, and the oceans between them. It will showcase fresh and original studies of the Anthropocene – theories, methods and practices – across the environmental humanities and social sciences. This will include anthropology, art, cinema and theater, comparative literature, cultural studies, ecology, geology, history, law, linguistics, media studies, political science, religion and sociology under the broad heading of ‘environmental humanities’. Possible topics include, but are not limited to, the Chinese Belt and Road initiative, bio-politics, climate change, the COVID-19 pandemic, ecofeminism, eco-criticism, ecological problems and policies, energy issues, environmental transformation, oceanic and maritime studies, anthro-zoology and multi-species entanglements, neo-colonialism and post-coloniality, development issues and ‘wicked problems’ in and from the Global South. This English-language book series is directed at scholars, graduate and undergraduate students of Anthropocene studies related to Africa and Asia.

Mittelalterliches Aventiurenerzählen und seine Transzendenzen
Aventiurenerzählen erschließt in seinen zentrifugalen Bewegungsmustern Areale am Rande dessen, was vertraut und ordnungsgemäß bestimmbar ist – mit weitreichenden Folgen für die europäische Literatur. Aber was resultiert aus dem Blick über den Rand? Konturiert sich im Erzählen eine andere Ordnung oder zeigt sich etwa ein Anderes der Ordnung? Werden in der agonalen Steigerungslogik des Abenteuers letztlich Differenzen in Intensitäten umgewandelt? Die Beiträge des Bandes werfen ein neues Licht auf die Genealogie des Abenteuers, dessen literarischer Eigenwert nicht einfach auf der Abblendung religiöser Sinnangebote gründet, sondern eher auf eigenwilligen Modi des Transzendierens. Am Beispiel volkssprachiger Texte, von Artusromanen und Kreuzzugsepen über Ritterbiographien bis hin zu spätmittelalterlichen Pilgerberichten, werden neue Thesen zur strukturellen Charakteristik, zur intertextuellen Reichweite und zur Interdependenz des Abenteuer-Narrativs mit Historie und sozialer Praxis erprobt.

Bent Legs on Strange Grounds, 1982–2023
Author:
In Butoh and Suzuki Performance in Australia: Bent Legs on Strange Grounds, 1982-2023, Marshall considers how the originally Japanese forms of butoh dance and Suzuki’s theatre reconfigure historical lineages to find ancient yet transcultural ancestors within Australia and beyond. Marshall argues that artists working in Australia with butoh and Suzuki techniques develop conflicted yet compelling diasporic, multicultural, spiritually and corporeally compelling interpretations of theatrical practice. Marshall puts at the centre of butoh historiography the work of Tess de Quincey, Yumi Umiumare, Tony Yap, Lynne Bradley, Simon Woods, Frances Barbe, and Australian Suzuki practitioners Jacqui Carroll and John Nobbs.
Jonathan W. Marshall’s Bent Legs on Strange Grounds is an important contribution to the body of literature on butoh, as well as to studies of dance in Australia that will be valuable to practitioners and scholars alike. Detailed discussions of Australian butoh artists open up consideration of how global and local histories, migrations, and landscapes not only were key to butoh’s formation in Japan, but also to its continued development around the world. Attention to butoh’s emplacement in Australia, Marshall convincingly argues, reveals insights about national identity, race, power, and more that are relevant well beyond the Australian performance context.

Marshall’s Bent Legs on Strange Grounds explores the remarkable transformative era of Australia’s reconsideration of its place in the region. A definitive study of Australian experiments in butoh and the theatrical vision of Suzuki Tadashi, the book shows how new corporeal and spatial dramaturgies of the Japanese avant-garde fundamentally changed Australian performance. Expansively researched and annotated, this impressive study connects Australian performance after the New Wave with globalization, postmodern dance, Indigeneity, and subcultures, and it details the work of leading Australian/Asian artists. Bent Legs on Strange Grounds speaks about the development of embodied knowledge and the consequential refiguration of Australia’s sense of being in the world. It is also a study of butoh and Suzuki’s legacy in global terms, wherein Australian experimental performance also becomes something larger than itself.
