    Description / Table of Contents: Artists, scientists and the wider public of the Victorian era all seem to have shared a common interest in the myth of the Briar Rose and its contemporary implications, from the Pre-Raphaelites and late Victorian aesthetes to the fascinated crowds who visited Ellen Sadler, the real-life 'Sleeping Maid' who is reported to have slept from 1871 to 1880. The figure of the beautiful reclining female sleeper is a recurring theme in the Victorian imagination, invoking visual, literary and erotic connotations that contribute to a complex range of readings involving aesthetics, gender definitions and contemporary medical opinion. This book compiles and examines a corpus of Sleeping Beauties drawn from Victorian medical reports, literature and the arts and explores the significance of the enduring revival of the myth

    Description / Table of Contents: Immigration has become a contentious issue in Europe in recent decades, with immigrants being accused of resisting integration and threatening the secular fabric of nationhood. The most extreme form of this unease has invented and demonized an Islamic 'other' within Europe. This book poses central questions about this global staging of difference. How has such anxiety increased exponentially since 9/11? Why has the Muslim veil been singled out as a metaphor in debates about citizenship? Lastly, and most fundamentally, who sets the criteria for constructing the ideal citizen? This study explores the issue of gender and immigration in the national contexts of Germany and France, where the largest minority populations are from Turkey and North Africa, respectively. The author analyzes fictional works by the Turkish-German writers Emine Sevgi Özdamar and Zafer Şenocak and by Francophone writer Malika Mokeddem. All three deconstruct binary oppositions and envision an alternate third space that allows them to break out of the confines of organized religion. In the latter part of the book, the voices of young Muslim women are foregrounded through interviews. The concluding chapter on the pedagogical tool Deliberative Dialogue suggests ways to navigate such contentious issues in the Humanities classroom

    Description / Table of Contents: This collection looks beyond Ireland metaphorically as well as geographically, moving beyond nationalism towards the culturally diverse, beyond a bilingual Ireland to a polyvocal one, beyond the imagined community towards a virtual one, beyond a territorial Ireland to an excentric one. The focus is on outsiders, ranging from Colm Tóibín's subversion of establishment norms to Paul Muldoon's immersion in Jewish discourse to John Banville's extensions of the parameters of Irishness to the Lass of Aughrim finding a new role through her exclusion from the domestic hearth. The contributors to the volume work mainly with poetry and prose fiction, but genres such as autobiography, the essay and song lyrics are also represented. The issues addressed all look 'beyond Ireland'. In considering the creative frictions and fictions that result from the dissolving of old loyalties, these essays examine contested concepts such as 'the nation', and attempt to shed light on global forces that demand cultural re-definitions and transformations. The world order that let loose the Celtic Tiger has brought, together with a diversified Ireland, new forms of dependence. It is one of the main aims of this book to explore how Irish writers have regarded this diversification and contested that dependence

    Description / Table of Contents: Diese Studie analysiert die Problematik der Identitätssuche ostdeutscher Protagonisten in vier Veröffentlichungen von Autoren aus der ehemaligen DDR. Durch die Handlung des Reisens artikuliert sich deren Suche nach Identität und nach persönlicher Orientierung. Gerade während der gesellschaftlichen Übergangsphase der neunziger Jahre entwickelt sich das Reisemotiv zu einem Merkmal der Gegenwartsliteratur zahlreicher ostdeutscher Schriftsteller, da sie durch das Reisen die Bewegung in den Köpfen ihrer Protagonisten metaphorisch gestalten. Reisen als Ausdruck des Bedürfnisses, eine neue Umgebung zu entdecken, schließt die eigene Neubestimmung durch Positionierung in einer Fremdwelt ein. Somit bedeutet die Fremdbegegnung gleichzeitig eine Neubestimmung der eigenen Person, damit der eigenen Identität. Einer einführenden Untersuchung zu Fragen der ostdeutschen Identität nach 1990 schließt sich die textnahe Untersuchung folgender Autoren und Werke hinsichtlich Sprachgestaltung, Aussage und Textform an: Thomas Rosenlöcher (Die Wiederentdeckung des Gehens beim Wandern - Harzreise, 1991), Angela Krauß (Die Überfliegerin, 1995), Irina Liebmann (Letzten Sommer in Deutschland. Eine romantische Reise, 1997) und Bernd Wagner (Paradies, 1997)
    Description / Table of Contents: «In its detailed analyses (...), 'Reisen zum Ich' offers a compelling account of a unique historical circumstance: the simultaneous creation and dissolution of a collective identity.» (John Urang, German Quarterly)
