Yeats, Revival, and the Temporalities of Irish Modernism
by null Gregory CastleYeats, Revivalism, and the Temporalities of Irish Modernism offers a new understanding of a writer whose revivalist commitments are often regarded in terms of nostalgic yearning and dreamy romanticism. It counters such conventions by arguing that Yeats's revivalism is an inextricable part of his modernism. Gregory Castle provides a new reading of Yeats that is informed by the latest research on the Irish Revival and guided by the phenomenological idea of worldmaking, a way of looking at literature as an aesthetic space with its own temporal and spatial norms, its own atmosphere generated by language, narrative, and literary form. The dialectical relation between the various worlds created in the work of art generate new ways of accounting for time beyond the limits of historical thinking. It is just this worldmaking power that links Yeats's revivalism to his modernism and constructs new grounds for recognizing his life and work.

Zeitlichkeitskonzepte von Latenz als Gender-Figurationen der Romantik (Bettine von Arnim, Clemens Brentano, Karoline von Günderrode)
by Jessica Fischer„Doch alles ist ganz anders nun geworden“. Dieses Zitat aus Günderrodes romantischem Gedicht „Vorzeit, und neue Zeit“ spiegelt die Veränderungen der und um die Zeit wider. Im Gedicht erlebt das lyrische Ich ein „Nun“, die Gegenwart, die sich von der Vergangenheit abgespalten hat und eine Zukunft ermöglicht, die die Gegenwart noch nicht zulässt. Die Zeit verändert sich. Doch was ist das - Zeit? Und wie wird Zeit und Zeitlichkeit in der Lyrik um 1800 wahrgenommen? Das sind Fragestellungen, die in den Gedichten offensichtlich selbst thematisiert und reflektiert werden. Und weiterhin: Was ist denn im „Nun“ anders geworden? Was ist es, das sich verändert hat? Dieses Etwas ist nicht sichtbar. Es ist verborgen. Die präsentische Zeit, die hier angesprochen wird, ist die „Latenz“. Im aktuellen literaturwissenschaftlichen Diskurs nimmt die Latenz einen besonderen Stellenwert ein. Bislang wurde untersucht, wie „Latenz“ in der Gegenwartsliteratur dargestellt wird. Sie ist jedoch kein Begriff der Gegenwartsliteratur, sondern findet sich in dem oben veranschaulichten Sinne bereits in der Romantik, genauer in der Zeit um 1800. In der aktuellen Forschung wurde noch nicht geklärt, wie „Latenz“ in der Romantik dargestellt wird. Diese Forschungslücke soll anhand der Lyrik von Clemens Brentano, Bettine von Arnim und Karoline von Günderrode in diesem Buch geschlossen werden.
Zwischen Information und Sensation: Zur Darstellung von Suizid und Suizidalität in deutschen Tageszeitungen
by Antonia MarkiewitzIn diesem Buch befasst sich Antonia Markiewitz mit der Thematisierung von Suizid(alität) in den Medien, möglichen Einflüssen auf die journalistische Ausgestaltung der Berichterstattung sowie mit der potenziellen Wirkung, die sie aus der Forschung zum Werther- und Papageno-Effekt ableitet. Dazu untersucht die Autorin, inwiefern die Darstellung von Suizid und Suizidalität in deutschen Tageszeitungen den Richtlinien zur verantwortungsvollen Suizidberichterstattung entspricht, die ihrerseits an der Maxime der Suizidprävention ausgerichtet sind. Aufbauend auf einer redaktionellen Intervention zur Verbesserung der Suizid(alitäts)darstellung mit anschließender Inhaltsanalyse der Beiträge, rückt sie auch die Rolle der Journalist*innen in den Fokus.
Conflict and Colonialism in 21st Century Romantic Historical Fiction: Repairing the Past, Repurposing History (Routledge Research in Women's Literature)
by Hsu-Ming Teo and Paloma Fresno-CallejaThis book explores how postmillennial Anglophone women writers use romantic narrativisations of history to explore, revise, repurpose and challenge the past in their novels, exposing the extent to which past societies were damaging to women by instead imagining alternative histories. The novelists discussed employ the generic conventions of romance to narrate their understanding of historical and contemporary injustice and to reflect upon women’s achievements and the price they paid for autonomy and a life of public purpose. The volume seeks, firstly, to discuss the work of revision or reparation being performed by romantic historical fiction and, secondly, to analyse how the past is being repurposed for use in the present. It contends that the discourses and genre of romance work to provide a reparative reading of the past, but there are limitations and entrenched problems in such readings.
Digital Culture and the Hermeneutic Tradition: Suspicion, Trust, and Dialogue (Routledge Focus on Literature)
by Inge van de Ven Lucie ChateauIn our information age, deciding what sources and voices to trust is a pressing matter. There seems to be a surplus of both trust and distrust in and on platforms, both of which often amount to having your mindset remain the same. Can we move beyond this dichotomy toward new forms of intersubjective dialogue? This book revaluates the hermeneutic tradition for the digital context. Today, hermeneutics has migrated from a range of academic approaches into a plethora of practices in digital culture at large. We propose a ‘scaled reading’ of such practices: a reconfiguration of the hermeneutic circle, using different tools and techniques of reading. We demonstrate our digital-hermeneutic approach through case studies including toxic depression memes, the Johnny Depp/Amber Heard trial, and r/changemyview. We cover three dimensions of hermeneutic practice: suspicion, trust, and dialogue. This book is essential reading for (under)graduate students in digital humanities and literary studies.

Dreams in Chinese Fiction: Spiritism, Aestheticism, and Nationalism (Routledge Focus on Literature)
by Johannes D. KaminskiThis book considers the contemporary political formula of the “Chinese Dream” in the light of the treatment of dreams in Chinese literary history since antiquity. Sinic literary and philosophical texts document an extensive spectrum of dream possibilities: starting with Zhuangzi’s eminent butterfly dream, an early example of the inversion of the dreamer’s reality, through to confusing visions of the spiritual realm. In classical dramas, novels, and ghost stories, dreams see the earthly realm enter into conflict with higher realms of existence. They indulge the dreamer’s quest for sensual pleasures, but then spiritual beings relentlessly harvest the dreamers’ life energy. Dreams promise spiritual enlightenment – only to abandon the dreamer in a state of utter confusion. In the early twentieth century, traditional dream knowledge is abandoned in favour or Freudian episodes of sexual repression. In this context, the collective national dream emerges as an unexpected vehicle of the pained individual’s hope for national rejuvenation.

The Idea of Education in Golden Age Detective Fiction (Literature and Education)
by Andrew Green Roger DalrympleThis book presents an exploration of how Golden Age detective fiction encounters educational ideas, particularly those forged by the transformative educational policymaking of the interwar period.Charting the educational policy and provision of the era, and referring to works by Agatha Christie, Dorothy L. Sayers, Edmund Crispin and others, this book explores the educational capacity and agency of literary detectives, the learning spaces of the genre and the kinds of knowledge that are made available to inquirers both inside and outside the text. It is argued that the genre explores a range of contemporaneous propositions on the balance between academic curriculum and practicum, length of school life and the value of lifelong learning. This book’s closing chapter considers the continuing pedagogic value for contemporary classrooms of engaging with the genre as a rich discursive and imaginative space for exploring educational ideas.Framing Golden Age detective fiction as a genre profoundly concerned with learning, this book will be highly relevant reading for academics, postgraduate students and scholars involved in the fields of English language arts, twentieth-century literature and the theories of learning more broadly. Those interested in detective fiction and interdisciplinary literary studies will also find the volume of interest.

Law, Literature, and Violence Against Women: Ending the Victim Blame Game
by Erin L. KelleyThis book engages legal and literary texts in order to examine acquaintance crimes, such as rape, sexual harassment, stalking, and domestic abuse, and to challenge how the victim’s physical or psychological "freeze response" is commonly and inaccurately mistaken for her consent.Following increased interest in the #MeToo movement and the discoveries of sexual abuse by numerous public figures, this book analyzes themes in law and literature that discredit victims and protect wrongdoers. Interpreting a present-day novel alongside legislation and written court cases, each chapter pairs a fictional text with a nonfictional counterpart. In these pairings, the themes, events, and arguments of each are carefully unpacked and compared against one another. As the cross-readings unfold, we learn that a victim does not "ask for it," and she should not arouse suspicions just because she does not fight, run away, or report the crime. Instead, and as this book demonstrates, the more common and most practical response is to become physically and mentally paralyzed by fear; the victim dissociates, shuts down, and remains stuck in the fright and captivity of abuse.This book will interest scholars and students working in, and especially at the intersection of, law, literature, gender studies, and criminology.
Media, Dissidence and the War in Ukraine (Routledge Studies in Media, Communication, and Politics)
by Tabe Bergman Hearns-Branaman, Jesse OwenThis volume examines the global media coverage of the armed conflict in Ukraine, focusing on the marginalization of dissident perspectives in the West and the information quality and diversity on social media.Along with presenting original, empirical studies on how mainstream media in countries as diverse as Israel, the Czech Republic, Ghana, and the Netherlands have covered the conflict between NATO and Russia since 2022, this book sheds light on the role of the state and the media in policing the boundaries of permissible thought on the conflict in the West, as well as in Russia and Ukraine. It also delves into the war’s representation on prominent social media platforms.Written by a diverse group of international researchers, this multifaceted volume offers new perspectives and insights on the reporting of the ongoing conflict. It will interest scholars of international communication and media, foreign policy and international politics, war and conflict, content analysis, and journalism.
