Literature & Literary StudiesOctober 2024The Legacy of John Polidori
The Romantic Vampire and its Progeny
by Sam George, Bill Hughes
John Polidori's novella The Vampyre (1819) is perhaps 'the most influential horror story of all time' (Frayling). Polidori's story transformed the shambling, mindless monster of folklore into a sophisticated, seductive aristocrat that stalked London society rather than being confined to the hinterlands of Eastern Europe. Polidori's Lord Ruthven was thus the ancestor of the vampire as we know it. This collection explores the genesis of Polidori's vampire. It then tracks his bloodsucking progeny across the centuries and maps his disquieting legacy. Texts discussed range from the Romantic period, including the fascinating and little-known The Black Vampyre (1819), through the melodramatic vampire theatricals in the 1820s, to contemporary vampire film, paranormal romance, and science fiction. They emphasise the background of colonial revolution and racial oppression in the early nineteenth century and the cultural shifts of postmodernity.

The ArtsOctober 20174 saints in 3 acts
A snapshot of the American avant-garde in the 1930s
by Patricia Allmer, John Sears
Four Saints in Three Acts by Gertrude Stein and Virgil Thomson was a major avant-garde phenomenon of the 1930s, an experimental opera that nonetheless achieved remarkable popular success. Photography was a key element of that success, but its complex roles in the construction, representation and dissemination of the opera have hitherto received little critical attention. The photographic recording of the all-African American cast in particular affords a unique insight into the complexities of Four Saints in relation to the Harlem Renaissance and the New York avant-gardes of the time. This book, published in collaboration with The Photographers' Gallery, London, presents a wide selection of photographs of the cast, performances, and other material - many images reproduced for the first time - alongside essays by an international range of scholars exploring different aspects of the opera, including dance, fashion, music, and avant-garde writing, as well as photography.

December 2001Die Formen des Religiösen in der Gegenwart
by Charles Taylor, Karin Wördemann, Charles Taylor
Ausgehend von William James' 1902 erschienener Untersuchung "Die Vielfalt religiöser Erfahrung" verfolgt Charles Taylor die Verschiebungen im Verhältnis von Religion, Individuum und Gesellschaft, von Spirituellem und Politischem bis in die Gegenwart. Der Rückzug des religiösen aus der öffentlichen Sphäre hat die Religion nicht ins Private eingeschlossen; vielmehr verbirgt sich hinter diesem Prozeß eine Kulturrevolution: Der moderne »expressive« Individualismus hat eine Vielfalt neuer Religionsformen und -gemeinschaften hervorgebracht, die auf die traditionellen Formen zurückwirkt und die Gesellschaft verändert. Der Ort der Religion muß neu bestimmt werden.

James Tod's journeys among the Rajputs
by Florence D'Souza, Andrew Thompson, John M. MacKenzie
This study of the British colonial administrator James Tod (1782-1835), who spent five years in north-western India (1818-22) collecting every conceivable type of material of historical or cultural interest on the Rajputs and the Gujaratis, gives special attention to his role as a mediator of knowledge about this little-known region of the British Empire in the early nineteenth century to British and European audiences. The book aims to illustrate that British officers did not spend all their time oppressing and inferiorising the indigenous peoples under their colonial authority, but also contributed to propagating cultural and scientific information about them, and that they did not react only negatively to the various types of human difference they encountered in the field.

James Joyce
by Richard Ellmann, Richard Ellmann, Albert W. Hess, Klaus Reichert, Karl H. Reichert
Richard Ellmanns Joyce-Biographie ist ein berühmt gewordenes Beispiel der Kunst der Lebensdarstellung in ihrer angloamerikanischen Ausprägung. Mit Akribie und Hingabe hat Ellmann Daten und Fakten gesammelt, Teile und Teilchen von Informationen an den entlegensten Stellen aufgestöbert, um das Bild des großen Dichters zusammenzusetzen, den er in seinen Lebensäußerungen als widersprüchlich und spröde und in seinen Werken als sperrig empfunden hat. »Joyce ist das Stachelschwein unter den Dichtern«, heißt es mit charakteristischer Lakonie in seiner Einleitung. Ellmann möchte das Faktische sprechen lassen - vage Einfühlung und bloße Mutmaßungen sind ihm ein Greuel -, aber ihm geht es darum, mit den tausend Details seines Lebensbildes zu den Werken selbst zu führen: »die Tür steht offen«. Es ist Richard Ellmann gelungen, das Vergnügen seiner Entdeckerfreude und seine Begeisterung an der Entzifferung von Querverbindungen, Zusammenhängen und Hintergründen auf die Leser überspringen zu lassen. Sein trockener Humor erlaubt es ihm, den manchmal bizarren Tatsachen, die sich seinem detektivischen Blick darbieten, mit Gelassenheit zu begegnen und den Wust des Aufgedeckten unerschrocken zu sichten.Ellmann zeichnet ein scharf konturiertes Bild der Figur und Person dieses großen Schriftstellers des zwanzigsten Jahrhunderts und seiner Epoche. Er führt den Leser in die ›Joyce-Städte‹ Dublin, Triest, Paris und Zürich, in die literarischen Kreise der frühen Jahrzehnte unseres Jahrhunderts -u.a. mit den Gestalten Shaw, Yeats, Eliot, Virginia Woolf, Proust, Hemingway, Sylvia Beach, Italo Svevo - und in die facettenreiche und komplizierte Innenwelt schließlich von James Joyce selbst. Ellmanns erstmals im Jahr 1959 veröffentlichte Joyce-Biographie wurde von ihm selbst zeitlebens um neuere Kenntnisse der Forschung und weitere Funde ergänzt, historisch bedingte Irrtümer und Fehlschlüsse wurden bereinigt. So ist sein Buch selbst eine Art ›work in progress‹ geworden.

The Arctic in the British imagination 1818–1914
by Andrew Thompson, John M. MacKenzie, Rob David
The Arctic region has been the subject of much popular writing. This book considers nineteenth-century representations of the Arctic, and draws upon an extensive range of evidence that will allow the 'widest connections' to emerge from a 'cross-disciplinary analysis' using different methodologies and subject matter. It positions the Arctic alongside more thoroughly investigated theatres of Victorian enterprise. In the nineteenth century, most images were in the form of paintings, travel narratives, lectures given by the explorers themselves and photographs. The book explores key themes in Arctic images which impacted on subsequent representations through text, painting and photography. For much of the nineteenth century, national and regional geographical societies promoted exploration, and rewarded heroic endeavor. The book discusses images of the Arctic which originated in the activities of the geographical societies. The Times provided very low-key reporting of Arctic expeditions, as evidenced by its coverage of the missions of Sir John Franklin and James Clark Ross. However, the illustrated weekly became one of the main sources of popular representations of the Arctic. The book looks at the exhibitions of Arctic peoples, Arctic exploration and Arctic fauna in Britain. Late nineteenth-century exhibitions which featured the Arctic were essentially nostalgic in tone. The Golliwogg's Polar Adventures, published in 1900, drew on adult representations of the Arctic and will have confirmed and reinforced children's perceptions of the region. Text books, board games and novels helped to keep the subject alive among the young.
