Abstract:
Erich Auerbach's Mimesis (1946) can usefully be read in the context of the Christian existentialist thought to which Auerbach was exposed during his years as a professor at the University of Marburg between 1929 and 1935–36. Specifically, placing Auerbach's account of Peter's denial of Christ as related in the Gospel of Mark in conversation with the work of Auerbach's Marburg colleague Rudolf Bultmann (1884–1976) helps us to understand Auerbach's indebtedness to Bultmann and to see Mimesis in new ways, as a project with a longer collaborative history that concerns not only literary “realism” but also the dargestellte Wirklichkeit (“represented reality”) of the finitude of the human condition. Acknowledging the importance of early-twentieth-century Christian existentialism in Germany for Auerbach's work helps explain the affective hold that Mimesis has had on lay and professional readers alike.

Abstract:
Abstract Erich Auerbach (1892–1957), best known as the author of Mimesis: Dargestellte Wirklichkeit in der abendländischen Literatur (1946; Mimesis: The Representation of Reality in Western Literature, 1953), wrote about the eighteenth-century philologist and philosopher of history Giambattista Vico (1668–1744) fifteen times over the course of his life. The translations offered here are among the earliest of these writings. These early essays on Vico refine the picture both of Auerbach himself and of the significance of his work for comparative literary studies today in important ways. First, they allow a reconsideration of the progressivist literary historical secularization thesis often claimed for Auerbach’s oeuvre writ large. Second, they display Auerbach’s early aspiration to reach “ein allgemeineres Publikum” (a more general public) through his work as a “Schriftsteller” (writer). Finally, they open a window onto the Vichian calculus upon which his assessment of the texts discussed in Mimesis may have been based. The modes of representation (Darstellung) Auerbach favored may thus be understood not as part of a restrictive canon but rather as examples of the human “Schauspiel” (drama) and fateful “Lage . . . der Menschen” (human condition) in a world whose literatures reach far beyond the European archive enshrined in Mimesis.

Abstract:
One of the most significant developments in literary studies over the last twenty years has been the postcolonial discourse that emerged with Edward Said's groundbreaking Orientalism, which has been enormously beneficial in heightening awareness of a set of Western assumptions that had gone virtually unquestioned for centuries.One of Said's role models, whom he mentions in both Orientalism and Culture and Imperialism and discusses at greatest length in his essay “Secular Criticism,” is Erich Auerbach, the Jewish-German scholar who wrote the literary history Mimesis during his exile in Istanbul. Auerbach's own explanation of his situation in exile occurs at the very end of Mimesis: “I may also mention that the book was written during the war and at Istanbul, where the libraries are not equipped for European studies …. On the other hand, it is quite possible that the book owes its existence to just this lack of a rich and specialized library” (Auerbach 1953, p. 557).

Die Arbeit stellt einen Versuch dar, das fotografische Bild und die Körpermetapher in der Prosa Franz Kafkas als simulative und mimetische Darstellungsregister auszuweisen, die vom Leser zweierlei Empfangsarten verlangen: den Nach-Vollzug des darin inszenierten Phantomisierungs- und Verkörperungsvorgangs. Die Werke Kafkas, so die These der Arbeit, exemplifizieren damit auf eminente Weise die Vieldeutigkeit und Komplexität von Mimesis und Simulation, die auch den poetologischen Theorien von Erich Auerbach und Wolfgang Iser zugrunde liegt. Bei unterschiedlichen Voraussetzungen weisen die Positionen Auerbachs und Isers einen gemeinsamen Wesenspunkt auf, der ihrem dynamischen und prozessualen Charakter entspricht: den kreativen „Blick des Lesenden“. So treffen die poetologische Reflexion und die dichterische Darstellung bei Kafka zusammen.

Abstract:
A review of the third book by Erich Auerbach that has been translated into Russian. The publication differs from the original, compiled by the German culturologist M. Bormuth, The Scar of Odysseus. Horizons of World Literature [Die Narbe des Odysseus: Horizonte der Weltliteratur]. Along with the first chapter of Mimesis (‘The scar on Odysseus’ leg’), the Russian edition also contains its final chapter ‘The brown stocking.’ The essays and selected correspondence appear in Russian for the first time. Auerbach’s essays on M. Montaigne, G. Vico, Dante, Virgil, and M. Proust demonstrate the panoramic view of literature from Homer and the Bible to modernism. Fourteen letters, including those addressed to W. Benjamin, E.Panofsky, T. Mann, and M. Buber, focus on exile, a topic on which Bormuth expounds as early as in the introduction. Bormuth’s explanatory notes for each letter help readers to understand the relationship between the correspondents as well as the historical background.

Abstract:
Para Edward Said, o exílio e a migração são operadores de leitura caros ao pensamento crítico dissonante. Na perspectiva daquilo que chamo de uma fenomenologia saidiana do exílio, o lócus enunciativo do exilado é, para o pensador palestino, um estilo ético que implica numa posicionalidade diferencial indispensável para a compreensão crítica do mundo atual. Como veremos neste artigo, mesmo que os personagens conceituais do humanismo mundano de Said sejam, por excelência, filósofos, escritores e pensadores que experimentaram a condição de exilados, “perspectivismo do exílio” é lido, contudo, como o valor heurístico de uma posicionalidade crítica sempre fora do lugar e disponível até mesmo para aqueles que não experimentaram diretamente a migração e o desterro. Em outras palavras, este artigo procura comentar a releitura que o pensador palestino realiza, em Humanismo e crítica democrática, de Mimesis, de Erich Auerbach, propondo que o ponto de diálogo entre esses autores esteja na potência que migração e exílio desempenharam em suas trajetórias críticas.

Abstract:
A partir da clássica reflexão metacrítica de Northrop Frye na “Introdução polêmica” à sua Anatomia da crítica (1957), na qual o autor defende uma concepção de “crítica como ciência” contra a concepção de “crítica como literatura”, voltamo-nos para a recente reflexão metacrítica de Ottmar Ette em SaberSobreViver: a (o)missão da filologia (2015), na qual o autor propõe uma “história especializada das formas de escrita” nos Estudos Literários que efetue “uma perspectivação crítica de sua tradição”, visando à sua “reinvenção”. Relendo, em contraste com a leitura de Ette, as considerações metodológicas de Erich Auerbach em Mimesis (1946), apresentamos a concepção de método-como-jogo como inerente à “competência performativa” a ser promovida por uma nova formação estética (Bildung) no tempo presente.

Abstract:
Syftet med uppsatsen har varit att synligöra verklighetsåtergivningen i Ørstaviks Kjærlighet i ett försök att närma sig och förstå den kvinnliga protagonistens tillvaro. Analysen har främst utgått från Erich Auerbachs (Mimesis) och Birgitta Holms (Tusen år av ögonblick) systematiska arbetssätt, där Auerbachs metod har styrt angreppssättet och där Holms perspektiv på den kvinnliga tillvaron lagts till. Två specifika textavsnitt valdes ut för att utifrån ett mikroperspektiv lyfta den kvinnliga tillvaron till ett makroperspektiv. Huvudargumentet har varit att visa att en verklighetsframställning av den kvinnliga tillvaron är möjlig genom litteraturen. Liksom andra perspektiv såsom till exempel det postkoloniala och det feministiska kan även Auerbachs metod att tolka verklighetsåtergivningen i litterära texter, ge oss en möjlig bild av människans, och i det här fallet även specifikt kvinnans tillvaro. I Ørstaviks roman har man kunnat tydliggöra flertalet av de kriterier som enligt Auerbach bidrar till en realistisk presentation i verket och på så sätt kan man synliggöra och därmed också tolka en verklighet utifrån texten. I analysen har det också framkommit vad som specifikt utmärker Ørstaviks sätt att genom sitt arbete med språket och texten närma sig verkligheten. I båda texterna kan man till exempel se hur hon arbetar med en konkret ögonblickssituation där hon låter alla skikt få träda fram såsom i ”verkligheten” med rummet och dess inredning, karaktärernas blick, tal och tankar. Men vad som kanske framförallt ska ses som unikt för Ørstaviks sätt att skriva är hur hon fångar en verklighet i sitt sätt att synligöra protagonistens inre och yttre språk och med det visa att det är i relationen däremellan som vi får tillgång till hennes tillvaro som modern, västerländsk kvinna.

Abstract:
Em Machado de Assis, a representação da realidade é desfigurada através da forma literária marcada pelo binômio precisão versus imprecisão. Essa desfiguração surge na representação do cotidiano sério e trágico (elementos constitutivos do Realismo moderno, segundo Erich Auerbach) que, no Brasil, são afetados pela mescla de percepções de ordem política, econômica e religiosa, causando uma falta de posicionamento social claro. O presente trabalho tem a intenção de analisar o romance Dom Casmurro (obra que possui um narrador comprometido tanto pelo discurso jurídico quanto pelo discurso religioso) à luz do método que Auerbach desenvolveu para compreender a forma como é apresentada a condição humana através do tempo, especialmente nas obras Figura (1944) e Mimesis (1946), a fim de demonstrar como se dá a representação da realidade em um país periférico e pautado por valores arcaicos, gerando a quebra da seriedade e o afastamento da precisão realista.
In Machado de Assis work, the representation of reality is disfigured through the literary form determined by the precision vs. imprecision binomial. Such disfiguration emerges from the representation of the serious and tragic everyday (constitutive elements of Modern Realism, according to Erich Auerbach), which in Brazil is affected by the miscellany of political, economic and religious perceptions, causing an absence of a clear social positioning. The current work intends to analyze the novel Dom Casmurro (story that has a committed narrator both for the juridical speech and the religious one) making use of the method Auerbach developed to comprehend the form the human condition is present through time, specially in the works Figura (1944) and Mimesis (1946), in order to demonstrate the representation of reality in a peripheral country ruled by archaic values, generating the break of seriousness and the dismissal of realist precision.

Abstract:
The ‘Epilogue’ (2.7) picks up the discussion from the ‘Prologue’ (1.1) and extends it across a broader canvas in the history of the book and of reading. It asks how the case studies in previous chapters (including Pierre de L’Estoile), and new ones in this chapter of Bishop Camus, Pierre Charron, and Pierre Bayle, might revise the sketch of the Essais offered in Erich Auerbach’s Mimesis. I argue that the fundamental issue at stake in the early modern making and transmission of the Essais is the issue that is explicitly raised by Marie de Gournay in her preface of 1595, and, in a different style and context, by Charron’s use of Montaigne in De la sagesse (1601, 1604): how best to preserve and regulate the well-born individual’s natural liberté of judgement, their franchise or frankness, through reading and writing, in an age of moral corruption and confessional conflict.

Abstract:
Like the Old Testament narratives Erich Auerbach analysed in Mimesis, and like the Psalms described by Augustine, Luther, and Calvin, the religious poetry of Greville’s Caelica represents reality in a way that creates a sense of great poetic and theological depth. Time stretches forward and back, giving discrete and apparently empty moments significance as memory and expectation, both as a falling away and as part of a potential fulfilment. Space is both vast and intimate, isolating and connecting. Being has fallen and may degenerate further, but reformation and reunion with God remain possible. Finally, knowing this reality poses a profound challenge to a creature whose sinfulness contains a divinity it both hides and reveals.

Abstract:
The objective of the study is to identify and examine the essential elements which constitute the concept of the “Other” in the novels of Giuseppe Culicchia. The texts analyzed were published by Culicchia, writer, essayist and translator in Turin, Italy, from 1994 to 2019. The theoretical literary perspective is that of mimesis (Erich Auerbach, Zofia Mitosek, Nicoletta Salomon, Cesare Segre) and the concept of the “l’Altro” derives from anthropological studies (Marc Augé, Marco Aime, Ugo Fabietti, Francesco Remotti). The purpose of this study is to promote interdisciplinary research and to present the model of the Other and its evolution in novels. The article focuses on aspects of otherness, more apparent in Culicchia, that is to say: distance and space (the idea of nonluogo, mente locale, mobility), set of values and the consequent changes in the characters of his novels.
