Abstract:
This essay focuses on two unclassifiable books by the Chilean storyteller Diamela Eltit: El Padre Mío (1989) and El infarto del alma (1994). From the overexposure of the author thatmanifests itself in the first person as overturned towards the unavoidable outside of an encounter with difference, embodied in the madness and the helplessness of the bodies of “vagabundage” and psychiatric isolation, respectively, as well as the responsibility that emerges as a position of discourse before the problematic act of shaping the materiality of its recovered presence, I go through the ways in which the

Alma M. Karlin (1889–1950), a world traveller and German-language travel and fiction writer, cultivated a keen interest in religious beliefs and practices of the places she visited, believing in the Romantic notion of religion as the distilled soul of nations as well as in the Theosophical presumption that all religions are just particular iterations of an underlying universal truth. For this reason, the topic of religion was central to both her personal and professional identity as an explorer and writer.

Abstract:
Fiction on the Anglo-Boer War This article gives an overview of fictional prose about the Anglo-Boer War of 1899-1902. In contrast to the desire of many people to “forgive and forget" this past war, some authors for example Gustav Preller and D.F. Malherbe, told stories to remind the reader of the suffering of the past. Stereotypical patterns in a number of conventional war stories are mentioned in the article, followed by a discussion of fictional texts deviating from these conventional patterns - inter alia, works by Johannes van Melle and J.R.L. van Bruggen.

The text examines some social and labourist fiction books released between 2006 and 2022, from the historical novel to autobiographical writing together with a collective writing workshop. The analysis traces the characterizing and salient themes trying to understand what type of work is described in these books, what is the spirit of the time they express and the characteristic recurring themes. What emerges is a vision of labour that strongly claims the historicity and existence of the working classes, in a society where their presence and their imagination is mostly denied, marked by the th

In these works, blindness becomes a site through which to articulate the boundaries of genre itself. The chapter then turns to Wilkie Collins’s 1872 novel, Poor

Abstract In this chapter I shall argue that while Apuleius’ text is clearly marked for its readers as fiction, the Prologue’s phrases variae fabulae and sermo iste Milesius equivocate between introducing fiction or history to its addressee.

In the ninth speech of the Florida, Apuleius claims to write works in every genre (omnigenus): epic, lyric, comedy, tragedy, satire, riddles, histories, speeches, ph
