„Neues Drama“ aus Russland
Author:
In den letzten drei Jahrzehnten hat die russische Theaterlandschaft gravierende Veränderungen erfahren. Zahlreiche neue Stücke, Theater und Theaterfestivals entstanden dort, wo der Zusammenbruch der Sowjetunion und eine praktisch abwesende Kulturpolitik der 1990er Jahre erhebliche Lücken hinterlassen hatten. Zu verdanken ist dieses Wachstum in erster Linie der Bewegung „Neues Drama“ – einem international agierenden Netzwerk von russischen Dramatiker:innen und Theaterenthusiast:innen, die an der Jahrtausendwende entschieden gegen die Weltflucht des Theaterestablishments auftraten und sich mit den beunruhigenden postsowjetischen Realien auseinandersetzten. Um die Geschichte dieser Menschen zu erzählen, wirft Sauerstoff fürs Theater: „Neues Drama“ aus Russland einen genauen Blick hinter die Kulissen.

The Literary Reception of Herman Hugo's "Pia Desideria" in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth
Author:
This book is available in Open Access thanks to the generous support of the Adam Mickiewicz University, Poznań
This is the first monographic study of the reception of Herman Hugo's emblematic book "Pia desideria" (1624) in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. It discusses ten different translations and adaptations, showing how the engravings, elegies and exegetical extracts of the original volume were used by Polish-speaking authors (a little space is also devoted to the painting reception of the engravings). The author examines too the reasons for the phenomenon of the volume's popularity, proving that it was determined by the interest of women who did not know Latin, who constituted the most important target group for these numerous and varied Polish adaptations.

Russland in den expressionistischen Zeitschriften Der Sturm und Die Aktion (1910–1932)
Author:
Wie ‚international‘ waren historische Avantgarden und welche Rolle spielten nationale Imagines? Das Berlin der 1910er und 1920er Jahre war ein Schmelztiegel aus innovativen Kunstprojekten und weitläufigen Kontakten im europäischen Kontext. In dieser Atmosphäre riefen Herwarth Walden und Franz Pfemfert die Periodika Der Sturm und Die Aktion ins Leben, die sich zu den wichtigsten Foren der expressionistischen Bewegung entwickelten. Die Beiträger*innen entdeckten ‚Russland‘ als vitalistische Quelle und als Ausweg aus dem morbiden und dekadenten Zustand der ‚westlichen Moderne‘. Die vorliegende Monografie untersucht Rezeptionsmechanismen von Kunst, Literatur und Politik aus Russland sowie Konstruktionen des ‚Russischen‘ ausgehend vom ‚eigenen‘ Gruppenverständnis im Sturm- und Aktionskreis von 1910 bis 1932.

Zur Magie der Sprache
Author:
F. M. Dostoevskijs Werke sind ohne eine Analyse der Originalsprache kaum zu verstehen. Die bisher veröffentlichten Übersetzungen geben deren stilistische Besonderheit meist nicht angemessen wieder, insbesondere da gleiche Wörter in beiden Sprachen abweichende Bedeutungen haben. Daher sollte der grenzüberschreitende Dialog mit dem Autor neu geführt werden und auch eine Analyse seiner Sprache miteinbeziehen. Dostoevskij gilt als schlechter Stilist. Das aber rührt vor allem daher, dass er einer rationalen Sprache eine emotional bestimmte Rede vorzieht, die auf die Magie des gesprochenen Wortes setzt, nicht auf Vernunft und Argumentation. Das dürfte auch für künftige Übersetzungen relevant sein und führt vor Augen, welche Verständnisprobleme im Ost-West-Dialog noch zu überwinden sind.

The Linguistic Avant-Garde
Author:
An experiment with language. Is it an object cultivated in poetic laboratories where entry is locked for mere mortals? And what do language scholars think about it?
Specialists in language and literature studies interested in linguistic innovation and experimental poetry will find answers to these questions in Vladimir Feshchenko’s book. The study investigates various strategies of radical linguistic creativity in Russian and American experimental writing of the 20th century and explores cases of contemporary ‘language-oriented’ and ‘trans-language’ poetry. It is a comparative examination of two national avant-garde cultures, but also a juxtaposition of the relationships that Russian and American avant-garde poetics had with linguistic ideas of their times. The monograph may serve as a wonderful introduction to the entire field of ‘linguistic poetics of the avant-garde’.

Edward Abramowski’s Social Philosophy. With a Selection of His Writings
Translator:
The Metaphysics of Cooperation presents the intellectual achievements of the Polish associative socialist and pioneer of social sciences, Edward Abramowski. The volume is divided into five sections, each of them contains an analysis of Polish philosopher’s work according to the issues he dealt with: sociology, ethics, politics, cooperativism, and psychology. Each part also contains a selection of his writings. Its intention is to show Abramowski’s works in the context of global intellectual history and to include them in the current political debates. Abramowski makes fraternity or cooperation the main concepts of his social metaphysics. The Polish version of cooperativism can be inspiring both for contemporary researchers and political activists in the post-economic-crisis Europe. It also opens up a space for creating more democratic political and economic institutions.

Editors Robert Reid and Joe Andrew present eleven contributions by international scholars which highlight Tolstoi’s influence on his contemporaries and posterity through his fiction and thought. A figure of Tolstoi’s intellectual stature has naturally inspired an impressive range of responses. These encompass stage versions of his novels (War and Peace and Resurrection), communes founded in his name, and translations which have sought to capture the essence of his works for successive generations. Tolstoi is also compared in this volume with his contemporaries in chapters on Dostoevskii, Veselitsakaia, Rozanov and Elizabeth Gaskell. The reader of this work will gain new and unique insights into an unparalleled genius of world literature, especially into his immense cultural reach which continues to this day.
Contributors: Carol Apollonio, Katherine Jane Briggs, Elena Govor, Nel Grillaert, Susan Layton, Cynthia Marsh, Henrietta Mondry, Richard Peace, Alexandra Smith, Olga Sobolev, Willem Weststeijn, Kevin Windle.
