    Abstract: Leben als Experiment. Selbstsorge und Lebenskunst bei Nietzsche, Wittgenstein und Sontag. Für Friedrich Nietzsche, Ludwig Wittgenstein und Susan Sontag sind Leben und Werk nicht voneinander zu trennen. Sie beschäftigen sich intensiv mit Fragen der Selbstformung und der Suche nach einem gelungenen Leben – teilweise im direkten Bezug aufeinander. So sieht Wittgenstein in Nietzsche ein Vorbild in Fragen der Stilistik und Introspektion; Sontag möchte Wittgenstein in der Konsequenz seiner Lebensentscheidungen folgen und Nietzsche in seinem Selbstbewusstsein sowie in seiner Selbstkritik. Die Lektüre geistesverwandter Den-ker:innen dient allen dreien als Anregung und Bestärkung auf ihrem eigenen Lebensweg. Die vorliegende Arbeit untersucht drei Experimentierfelder, auf denen Nietzsche, Wittgenstein und Sontag sich in ihrer Selbstsorge und Lebenskunst erprobt haben: Ortswechsel dienen der Veränderung des äußeren Umfelds, der Suche nach neuen Anregungen oder dem Rückzug in eine ihnen gemäße Umgebung. Die Beschäftigung mit Gesundheit und Krankheit betrifft ihre psychische wie physische Verfasstheit und schließt zugleich mentale Übungen ein, die der Modifikation ihrer Haltungen und Wertmaßstäbe dienen. In der künstlerischen Praxis suchen sie neue Erfahrungen, ein anderes Selbsterleben sowie Ausdrucksmöglichkeiten jen-seits der Sprache. Welche Ähnlichkeiten und Unterschiede lassen sich in den Strategien der drei Denker:innen nachweisen? Und wie können ihre Ansätze zu Selbstsorge und Lebenskunst für heute frucht-bar gemacht werden? Die Untersuchung zieht hierfür aktuelle Studien aus der Psychologie und anderen Disziplinen heran und eröffnet damit weitere Forschungsfelder zu Fragen der Selbstkonstitution und Lebenskunst. Zahlreiche Dokumente aus dem Nachlass sowie Lesespu-ren aus der Bibliothek von Susan Sontag werden erstmals zitiert und zugänglich gemacht.
    Abstract: Life as an Experiment. Self-Care and the Art of Living in Nietzsche, Wittgenstein and Sontag. From the perspectives of Friedrich Nietzsche, Ludwig Wittgenstein, and Susan Sontag, life and work cannot be separated. Each of them dealt intensively with questions of self-formation and the search for a successful life—sometimes in direct reference to one another. Thus, Wittgenstein saw Nietzsche as a role model in questions of stylistics and introspection; Sontag aspired to follow Wittgenstein in the consistency of his life decisions and Nietzsche in his self-awareness and self-criticism. Reading thinkers with similar views served all three authors as a stimulus and encouragement on their own paths in life. This study examines three fields of experimentation through which Nietzsche, Wittgenstein, and Sontag tested themselves in their self-care and art of living. Changes of place served to alter the external environment, to provide new stimulation, or as a retreat into an environment that suited them. A preoccupation with health and illness affected their psychological as well as physical constitutions and, at the same time, included mental exercises that served to modi-fy their attitudes and value standards. And finally, in their respective artistic practices, they sought new experiences, a deeper level of self-experience, and possibilities of expression be-yond language. What similarities and differences can be found in the strategies of these three thinkers? And how are their approaches to self-care and the art of living applicable today? This work draws on current studies from psychology and other disciplines and opens up further fields of re-search on questions of self-constitution and the art of living. Numerous documents from Su-san Sontag’s estate and reading traces from her library are cited and made accessible for the first time.

    Abstract: "In recent years, the interdisciplinary fields of Native North American and Indigenous Studies have reflected, at times even foreshadowed and initiated, many of the influential theoretical discussions in the humanities after the "transnational turn." Global trends of identity politics, performativity, cultural performance and ethics, comparative and revisionist historiography, ecological responsibility and education, as well as issues of social justice have shaped and been shaped by discussions in Native American and Indigenous Studies. This volume brings together distinguished perspectives on these topics by the Native scholars and writers Gerald Vizenor (Anishinaabe), Diane Glancy (Cherokee), and Tomson Highway (Cree), as well as non-Native authorities, such as Chadwick Allen, Hartmut Lutz, and Helmbrecht Breinig. Contributions look at various moments in the cultural history of Native North America--from earthmounds via the Catholic appropriation of a Mohawk saint to the debates about Makah whaling rights--as well as at a diverse spectrum of literary, performative, and visual works of art by John Ross, John Ridge, Elias Boudinot, Emily Pauline Johnson, Leslie Marmon Silko, Emma Lee Warrior, Louise Erdrich, N. Scott Momaday, Stephen Graham Jones, and Gerald Vizenor, among others. In doing so, the selected contributions identify new and recurrent methodological challenges, outline future paths for scholarly inquiry, and explore the intersections between Indigenous Studies and contemporary Literary and Cultural Studies at large"--

    Abstract: In Native American Environmentalism the history of indigenous peoples in North America is brought into dialogue with key environmental terms such as "wilderness" and "nature." The conflict between Christian environmentalist thinking and indigenous views, a conflict intimately linked to the current environmental crisis in the United States, is explored through an analysis of parks and wilderness areas, gardens and gardening, and indigenous approaches to land as expressed in contemporary art, novels, and historical writing. Countering the inclination to associate indigenous peoples with "wilderness" or to conflate everything "Indian" with a vague sense of the ecological, Joy Porter shows how Indian communities were forced to migrate to make way for the nation's "wilderness" parks in the nineteenth century. Among the first American communities to reckon with environmental despoliation, they have fought significant environmental battles and made key adaptations. By linking Native American history to mainstream histories and current debates, Porter advances the important process of shifting debate about climate change away from scientists and literary environmental writers, a project central to tackling environmental crises in the twenty-first century.

    Abstract: Vergleichsweise wenige Texte in den Printmedien beschäftigen sich mit Allergie als Gegenstand öffentlichen Interesses. Deshalb untersucht die Dissertation die Darstellung von Allergien in Lifestyle-Magazinen im englisch- und amerikanischsprachigen Raum. Die vorliegende Arbeit befasst sich mit der Verbreitung von medizinischem Wissen durch die Medien. Sie zeigt, ob und wie die Medien zu Aufklärung und Information über Krankheiten, deren Relevanz, Diagnostik und Therapie, beitragen. Sie geht dabei besonders auf den Bedeutungsbereich von Wörtern ein, die als Metaphern benutzt werden. Das Fundament der Überlegungen bildet der Essay „Illness as Metaphor“ von Susan Sontag, in dem sie die Darstellung von Krankheiten und die Benutzung von Stereotypen abhandelt und Fragen, die im Zusammenhang mit Krankheit als sozialer und kultureller Angelegenheit stehen, aufwirft. Um den populärwissenschaftlichen Diskurs der analysierten Artikel in dieser Arbeit zu verstehen, wurde die von Jürgen Link entwickelte Diskursanalyse herangezogen, die sich eng an die Diskurstheorie Foucaults anlehnt. Die semiotischen Deutungsansätze werden mit Hilfe der Untersuchungen von Roland Barthes erklärt. Ziel der Arbeit ist es zu zeigen, wie die verschiedenen Diskurse ineinander greifen, welcher Mechanismus sich dahinter verbirgt und wo Ansatzpunkte für eine sachgerechte publizistische Behandlung des Themas liegen. Der Nutzen von Metaphern in der Beschreibung von Krankheiten liegt darin, dass sie kollektive Gefühlslagen ansprechen und den Denkraum des Möglichen erweitern. Dieser Aspekt ist besonders wichtig, da das Wort Allergie zu einer praktischen und populären Metapher für eine Reihe persönlicher, beruflicher oder politischer Antipathien geworden ist. Obwohl allergische Erkrankungen in der modernen Welt immer häufiger auftreten, räumen ihnen die Medien noch nicht den Platz ein, den sie -- auch ausgehend von der volkswirtschaftlichen Bedeutung der Erkrankungen -- dringend haben müssten.
    Abstract: Only a few print media focus on allergies as a matter of public interest. For this reason the dissertation analyzes the presentation of allergies in English and American lifestyle magazines. This thesis examines the propagation of medical knowledge via the media. It shows if and how the media contribute to health education and information about illness, its relevance, diagnostic investigation as well as therapy. The main focus is on those words which are used as metaphors. They represent an important subject of Susan Sontag''s essay „Illness as Metaphor“ which demonstrates the presentation of illness, the use of stereotypes and thus raises issues about illness being a social and cultural matter of interest. To understand the popular scientific discourse of this dissertation Jürgen Links'' discourse analysis is being used which follows closely Foucault''s theory. The semiotic interpretation is supported by the theories developped by Roland Barthes. This dissertation aims to show how the different discourses intertwine, to bring to fore the underlying mechanisms as well as an appropiate journalistic approach. The benefit of using metaphors when describing illness is that the collective state of mind is addressed and thus the range of thinking will be broadened. This aspect is especially important because the word allergy became a convenient and popular metaphor for a number of personal, professional or political aversions. Although allergies are dramatically on the raise in the modern world, their significance is not recognized yet by the media in their complexity as it should be the case, especially against the backdrop of the economic relevance of that illness

    Abstract: "In 1761 and again in 1768, European scientists raced around the world to observe the transit of Venus, a rare astronomical event in which the planet Venus passes in front of the sun. In The Transit of Empire, Jodi A. Byrd explores how indigeneity functions as transit, a trajectory of movement that serves as precedent within U.S. imperial history. Byrd argues that contemporary U.S. empire expands itself through a transferable "Indianness" that facilitates acquisitions of lands, territories, and resources. Examining an array of literary texts, historical moments, and pending legislations--from the Cherokee Nation of Oklahoma's vote in 2007 to expel Cherokee Freedmen to the Native Hawaiian Government Reorganization bill--Byrd demonstrates that inclusion into the multicultural cosmopole does not end colonialism as it is purported to do. Rather, that inclusion is the very site of the colonization that feeds U.S. empire.Byrd contends that the colonization of American Indian and indigenous nations is the necessary ground from which to reimagine a future where the losses of indigenous peoples are not only visible and, in turn, grieveable, but where indigenous peoples have agency to transform life on their own lands and on their own terms"--

    Abstract: White Captives offers a new analysis of Indian-white coexistence on the American frontier. June Namias shows that visual, literary, and historical accounts of the capture of Euro-Americans by Indians during the colonial Indian Wars, the American Revolution, and the Civil War are commentaries on the uncertain boundaries of gender, race, and culture. She demonstrates that these captivity materials, which most often feature as victims white women and children (the most vulnerable members of their communities), vividly portray anxieties about gender and ethnicity on the frontier and in American society. Namias begins by comparing the experiences and representations of male and female captives over time and on successive frontiers, from colonial New England to mid-nineteenth-century Minnesota, and explores how the stories transformed victims of historical circumstance into heroes and heroines. She then uses the narratives of three captives - Jane McCrea, Mary Jemison, and Sarah Wakefield - as case studies, arguing that they describe the fears of sexual contact between native cultures and white settlers and illustrate issues of female survival, independence, and competence. Moreover, she finds that these and other stories also reflect the major role of women and children in the migration process. According to Namias, both the historical reality and the reworked tales of capture offered white Americans new ways of looking at gender and ethnic relations by contrasting their own roles and value with those presumed to be Indian. Thus, while elements of horror, propaganda, mythmaking, and ethnographic documentary characterized the accounts, captivity materials served a larger purpose by providing a framework for notions of gender and cultural conflict on the frontier.
