Full textAbstract:
AbstractThis article examines and elaborates the nature of subjective experience by drawing on a variety of perspectives in recent philosophy, psychology, and psychoanalysis. The question of subjectivity has been much debated in each of these disciplines. In contrast with postmodern thinkers who wish to discard subjectivity altogether, I discuss alternative ways to understand and conceptualize subjectivity, or self-consciousness. I consider a tradition of thinkers that includes Sartre, Fichte, and the early German Romantics, who conceptualize self-consciousness as a "being-familiar-with-oneself" that is prior to all reflection. I argue that a developmental corollary to this approach can be found in the psychological research of Daniel Stern, who attributes to infants a "simple non-self-reflexive awareness," while Jacques Lacan's discussion of the specular misrecognitions of the self complicates any simply rendering of "mirroring." By thus combining epistemological, developmental, and phenomenological treatments of the self, I believe it is possible to achieve a conception of subjectivity that avoids the snares of Cartesian essentialism.

The article devoted to the genesis of the synthesis of the arts. The main research method is the cultural-historical approach, which allows considering this phenomenon in a historical perspective. Four stages were identified in the development of the arts: the primary syncretism of arts in primitive cultures; the separation of certain types of art and their acquisition of independence; the synthesis of the arts; the postmodern synesthesia of arts. The main ways of interaction of arts are determined: dominance, fusion, inclusion and juxtaposition. The authors of the article concluded that globalization, the development of technology, new types of communication contribute to the further complication and transformation of the synthesis of the arts, and such concepts close to it as “pluralism”, “interaction of arts”, “synesthesia” and “intermediality”. Broad prospects are opening up for the study of intermediality and multimedia as new heterogeneous semiotic systems.

The essence of the series of essays published by the magazine is that with a maximum compactness of presentation it provides a summary of the main phenomena of world artistic culture covered in general, both from the point of view of the general historical process, and in relation to the various forms of art (literature, the visual arts, architecture, music, theater and cinema). At the same time, the usual categorization of national schools and division into separate types of art with the genre specification inherent in each of them is overcome, which meets the positive trends of globalization and provides a holistic view of artistic phenomena. The following artistic and historical periods are considered in a stepwise manner: the Ancient world, Antiquity, the Middle Ages, the Renaissance, the Baroque Period, the Enlightenment, Romanticism, Post-Romanticism, the First Modern Period, the Second Modern Period, the Third Modern Period, the Postmodern Period, and as an afterword — “The Golden Age of Russian Artistic Culture”.

The reviewer analyses the monograph Problematic-Thematic Units and Philosophical-Esthetical Parameters of the British Post-Postmodern Novel (Kyiv, 2020) written by Dmytro Drozdovskyi, a Ukrainian scholar from Taras Shevchenko Institute of Literature of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, member of The European Society for the Study of English (Bulgarian branch). In the monograph, the author has outlined the theory of the post-postmodern novel based on the analysis of the key novels of contemporary British fiction (David Mitchell, Ian McEwan, Sarah waters, Mark Haddon, etc.). The review states that the Ukrainian scholar has developed the theory proposed by Fredric Jameson regarding the post-postmodern features of Cloud Atlas and also discusses the concept of meta-modernity as one of the sections in the post-postmodern literary paradigm in the UK. Drozdovskyi argues that meta-modernism cannot be the only term that explains all the peculiarities of contemporary British fiction, which also cannot be outlined as meta-modern but as post-postmodern. The scholar provides a new theory of the novel based on the exploitation of real and unreal historical facts and imagined alternative histories and multifaceted realities. Furthermore, the reviewer pays attention to the contribution this monograph has for world literary studies spotlighting the theory of literary meta-genre patterns, as Drozdovskyi provides a theory according to which literary periods can be divided into those in which the carnival is the dominant meta-genre pattern (like postmodernism) and those that exploit the mystery as the meta-genre pattern (post-postmodernism). The reviewer analyses the key thematic units explained by Drozdovskyi as the key ones that determine the semiosphere of the contemporary British novel (post-metaphysical and post-positivist thinking of the characters, medicalisation of the humanitarian discourse, and the representation of the temporal unity of different realities). The scholar also states that the post-postmodern British novel exploits the findings of German Romanticism and Kant’s philosophy.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis probes how recent experimental American "crisis fictions" from authors including Mark Z. Danielewski, Kathryn Davis, and Evan Dara reformulate transatlantic Romantic literary debates about technological and environmental change. Arguing that such texts extend previously theorised ties between Romanticism and postmodernism, it identifies enduring ties between late-postmodern accounts of crisis and those of Romantic predecessors. Responding to the upheavals of digital revolution and ecological risks, these texts, published between 1995 and 2012, inventively engage several linchpin constructs in transatlantic Romantic writing: chiefly, the imagined supersession of subjective and temporal boundaries; a sense that the natural and non-human world is of crucial importance; and a reliance on idioms of sublimity to suggest the unrepresentability of the aforementioned crises. Although numerous critics have traced similarities between Romantic and postmodern modes, this thesis considers those resonances as deeper questions of cultural and literary history. It proposes to more carefully historicise the Romantic intellectual heritage in late postmodernism, identifying intermediating moments that inform contemporary accounts of crisis. It unearths how late postmodern technocultural and environmentalist imaginaries were always already Romantic. Deeply informed by countercultural, mid-century American movements and ideas that themselves drew significantly from transatlantic Romanticism, contemporary figurations of upheaval, syncretically figured in mid-century publications such as the Whole Earth Catalog, are indebted to both Romantic and neo-Romantic heritages. This thesis additionally argues that the digital revolution and unprecedented environmental crisis act as pressures on postmodern literary practices from the mid-1990s onward. Digital speeding and a looming sense of ecological risk register as even earlier crises than the terrorist attacks of "9-11", requiring a recalibration of what the postmodern might mean and do. Crucially, in their preoccupation with embodied realities and environments, including natural ones, the contemporary narratives examined here diverge from the assumption that the natural world bears little importance in postmodern fields of representation. Finally, many recent literary experiments figure themselves as materially participating in the technological and medial systems they respond to; formal experimentation is, accordingly, another centre of interest. This research examines how select texts deploy formal strategies to "materially instantiate" Romantic ideas, to borrow Katherine Hayles's term. Although numerous critics have suggested that Romantic discourse permeates digital cultural imaginaries, existing scholarship devotes little attention to how formal experimentation intersects with narrative strategies.

Ce travail de thèse est consacré à l’étude de l’adolescence dans le lien social actuel. En mettant en lien plusieurs concepts psychanalytiques nous essayons de rendre compte des difficultés du passage adolescent que nous avons pu observer dans la clinique. Nous mettons en avant le lien entre le discours social ambiant et les difficultés que les adolescents peuvent éprouver aujourd’hui en tentant de devenir adulte. Nous concluons sur la question de la panne du sujet adolescent. Cette panne de l’adolescence n’est ni considérée comme une panne de l’Autre que chaque adolescent rencontre, ni comme une panne de la société mais comme une panne des processus mêmes de subjectivation. La difficulté de grandir peut être aujourd’hui entendu comme l’absence du désir de devenir adulte, comme l’impossible construction du lien à l’Autre. Nous évoquons à la fin de cette thèse le mythe de Narcisse et le destin du sujet désirant dans une société où on ne donne pas le temps au désir d’émergerThis PhD thesis is dedicated to a study on adolescence in the current social link. We put into relation several psychoanalytical concepts in order to acknowledge the difficulties of passing through adolescence that we observed in the Clinic.The methodology of this research is based on the study “CoPsyEnfant”. We used children’s and adolescents’ drawings in order to find out which are the identification models used today by children and adolescents. Clinical interviews and projective tests were used to help us to understand the subjectivity processes and hardships of adolescent passage in the current social link. The analysis of three clinical cases demonstrated several possible paths while passing through adolescence. We conclude on the question of the failure of the adolescent subject. The difficulty to grow can be heard today as the lack of desire to become an adult, as the impossible construction of the link to the big Other. At the end of this thesis we mention the Narcissus myth and the desiring subject’s destiny within a society which does not give the time to the desire to appear

Thesis (MA)--Stellenbosch University, 2014.ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This thesis investigates Romantic motifs in Postmodernism, especially Romantic motifs in Christian Kracht’s postmodern pop novel Faserland. Although in many aspects the era of German Romanticism (ca. 1798 – 1835) in literary history is seen as completed, Romanticism, as demonstrated in this thesis, still plays a significant role in today's postmodern literature. Even though discussions on this subject already exist, by theorists such as Blanning, Safranski and Lüthe, whose views provide the theoretical foundations for this hypothesis, concrete text investigations were yet still absent until now. Based on a comparison between themes and motifs of well-known Romantic texts, such as Heinrich von Ofterdingen (Novalis) , Aus dem Leben eines Taugenichts (Joseph von Eichendorff) as well as Der Sandmann (E.T.A. Hoffmann), and Christian Kracht’s postmodern Faserland, the continuity of Romanticism is illustrated in this study. The study not only provides an in depth analysis of the mentioned texts, but also, by means of comparison, clearly illustrates and evaluates to which extent Romantic thought has altered in a postmodern context.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Hierdie tesis ondersoek Romantiese motiewe in Postmodernisme, veral Romantiese motiewe in Christian Kracht se postmoderne poproman Faserland. Alhoewel in baie aspekte die tydperk van die Duitse Romantiek (ongeveer 1798 – 1835) in die literêre geskiedenis as afgehandel beskou word, speel die Romantiek, soos gedemonstreer in hierdie tesis, steeds 'n belangrike rol in vandag se postmoderne literatuur. Hoewel daar reeds besprekings oor hierdie onderwerp bestaan, deur teoretici soos Blanning, Safranski en Lüthe, wie se sienings die teoretiese basis vir hierdie hiptese bied, was konkrete teksondersoeke egter tot nou toe afwesig. Gebaseer op 'n vergelyking tussen die temas en motiewe van bekende Romantiese tekste, soos Heinrich von Ofterdingen (Novalis), Aus dem Leben eines Taugenichts (Joseph von Eichendorff) sowel as Der Sandmann (E.T.A. Hoffmann), en Christian Kracht se postmoderne Faserland, word die kontinuïteit van die Romantiek in hierdie studie geïllustreer. Die tesis bied nie net 'n in diepte ontleding van die genoemde tekste nie, maar illustreer en evalueer ook duidelik, deur middel van vergelyking, tot watter mate Romantiese motiewe in 'n postmoderne konteks verander het.
GERMAN ABSTRACT: Zusammenfassung: In dieser Arbeit wird auf romantische Motive in der Postmoderne, im Besonderen aber auf romantische Motive in dem postmodernen popliterarischen Roman Christian Krachts Faserland eingegangen. Obwohl in der Literaturgeschichte die Epoche der deutschen Romantik (ca. 1798 – 1835) als abgeschlossen gesehen wird, spielt die Romantik, wie in dieser Arbeit gezeigt wird, eine bedeutende Rolle in der heutigen postmodernen Literatur. Auch wenn es bereits Diskussionen zu diesem Thema gibt, von Theoretikern wie Blanning, Safranski und Lüthe, deren Ansichten die theoretischen Grundlagen für diese Hypothese liefern, sind konkrete Textuntersuchungen bisweilen dennoch ausgeblieben. Anhand eines Vergleichs zwischen Themen und Motiven von bekannten romantischen Texten, wie Heinrich von Ofterdingen (Novalis), Aus dem Leben eines Taugenichts (Joseph von Eichendorff) sowie auch Der Sandmann (E.T.A. Hoffmann), und Christian Krachts postmodernen Faserland , wird die Kontinuität der Romantik in dieser Arbeit dargestellt. Die These liefert nicht nur eine eingehende Analyse der genannten Texte, sondern illustriert und bewertet auch deutlich, mit Hilfe von einem Vergleich, inwiefern sich der romantischen Geist sich in einem postmodernen Kontext verändert hat.

Full textAbstract:
Die Arbeit unternimmt den Versuch, Melvilles Moby-Dick als einen Vorboten postmoderner Literarizität in den Blick zu nehmen, der in seiner Autoreferentialität den eigenen textuellen Status kritisch-ironisierend reflektiert und Sprache als einen krisenhaften Zugang zu Welt und Kosmos ins Spiel bringt. Sie legt dar, dass Melvilles opus magnum ein im Verlaufe der abendländischen Philosophie epistemologisch und semiologisch virulent gewordenes Krisenbewusstsein vom "Phantasma der Umfassung der Wirklichkeit" (Lyotard) einerseits auf inhaltlicher und andererseits autoreferentiell auf der Ebene der écriture inszeniert. Entsprechend wird davon ausgegangen, dass die vom Text absorbierten Diskurse in ihrer schieren Vielzahl nicht als partikulare Bezüge hermeneutisch isoliert werden können, sondern stattdessen in ihrer Heterogenität selbst die zentrale Problematik illustrieren, in deren Dienst sie als konstitutive Elemente stehen: Statt positiven Sinn zu stiften, verunmöglichen sie jegliche interpretatorische Direktive und verweisen dadurch auf eine dem Roman inhärente negative Dimension von Sinn – sie sind also vielmehr Bestandteile eines verhandelten Problems als dessen Lösung.
Nicht nur in den cetologischen Abschnitten des Romans – gleichwohl dort am offenkundigsten – lässt sich Melvilles spielerisch-dekonstruktiver Umgang mit westlichen Wissens- und Denkmodellen erkennen: Dringt man in ahabischer Manie(r) in das semantische Feld des Romans auf der Suche nach einem letzten Grund, einer inferentiellen Letztbegründung, gerät man in einen infiniten regressiven Strudel, der jede getroffene semantische Arretierung auf die Bedingungen ihrer Möglichkeit hin befragt und dadurch wieder aufbricht. Eine ishmaelische Lektüre des Moby-Dick bestünde darin, den Anspruch auf Letztbegründetheit im Sinne der différance Derridas aufzuschieben und sich damit der Gravitation eines transzendentalen Signifikats zu entziehen. Liest man die cetologischen Kapitel vor diesem Hintergrund, kann man in ihnen – so eine der zentralen Thesen der Arbeit – eine autoreferentielle Kontrastfolie erkennen, eine negative Exemplifikation dessen, wie sich der Moby-Dick nicht erfassen lässt: gewissermaßen eine Lektüreanleitung ex negativo.
Wesentliche Merkmale der Melvilleschen écriture sind Ambivalenz, Parodie und Dialogizität. Er verwendet stilistische und motivische Versatzstücke, destruiert sie und unterläuft so permanent die Ernsthaftigkeit der den Roman strukturierenden Schicksalszeichen wie auch die interpretativen Anstrengungen des Lesers. Die Autorität des eigenen Diskurses wird ironisch unterminiert und der Text damit in einer Schwebe zwischen Parodie und Monomanie, Unabschließbarkeit und Universalanspruch gehalten. Als die figurativen Kraftfelder dieser konkurrierenden Paradigmen stehen Ahab und Ishmael auf der Handlungsebene personifizierend für die paradoxe Konstellation des gesamten Textes, der nicht die Auflösung oder Aufhebung seiner konfliktiven Elemente sucht, sondern als ästhetischer Ausdruck des Paradoxen feste Orientierungspunkt vorenthält. Anstatt beide Figuren und die ihnen zugrundeliegenden epistemologischen Strategien antagonistisch in Opposition zueinander zu stellen, begreift diese Arbeit sie als komplementäre Elemente eines romantischen Metatextes, der sie in eine konfliktive Rezeption einfasst. In Analogie zum Konzept der romantischen Ironie Friedrich Schlegels wird Ahab hierbei als prototypischer Allegorisierer begriffen, wohingegen Ishmael als Ironiker für die Relativierung derartig monomanischer Kraftakte steht – zwischen Anspannung und Abspannung, Unbedingtem und Bedingtem baut sich jene Dynamik auf, die den gesamten Text durchwaltet.
Im Sinne der romantischen Universalpoesie ist der Moby-Dick nicht auf einen systemischen Abschluss hin orientiert, sondern besteht auf/aus seiner Unabschließbarkeit: Heterogenität, Inkonsequenz, Verworrenheit und mitunter Unverständlichkeit sind demnach keine Folgen kompositorischer Nachlässigkeit, sondern in ihrer Gesamtheit als das performative Moment der eigentlichen Mitteilung zu begreifen.

Tesis para optar al grado de Doctor en Literatura Hispanoamericana y ChilenaComo es sabido y Borges (1899-1986) mismo lo señala, pasó su niñez “detrás de una verja con lanzas, y en una biblioteca de ilimitados libros ingleses. Palermo del cuchillo y de la guitarra andaba (me aseguran) por las esquinas” Esta pequeña cita instala una problemática no menor en su obra y que contiene la relación siempre en tensión entre Latinoamérica (periferia) y Europa (centro). La investigación examina especialmente el diálogo interdiscursivo e intercultural entre Borges y dos románticos ingleses: William Blake (1757-1827) y John Keats (1795-1821) a través de la desterritorialización de Tyger y Nightingale del contexto romántico inglés decimonónico y su reterritorialización en la Argentina borgeana moderna / postmoderna del siglo XX. Metodológicamente, se ha realizado un análisis del poema “The Tyger” de Blake y del poema “Ode to a Nightingale” de Keats para dilucidar su significación o significaciones románticas. Posteriormente se ha examinado la obra ensayística, cuentística, lírica de Borges en búsqueda de los significados que él atribuye a tyger y nightingale descubriéndose una polisemia compleja otorgada por sus acercamientos serios o jocosos. En otras palabras, Borges desestabiliza la relación significante /significado de tyger y nightingale y su contexto romántico. Tanto tyger como nightingale diseminan rizomáticamente por la obra de Borges a través de los principios de conexión y heterogeneidad que permiten unirlos a nuevos significados diversos sin que se llegue jamás a un significado definitivo. Borges instalaría una postergación infinita del significado que asemeja un deslizamiento, un rodar, un nomadismo con múltiples entradas y salidas entre los discursos involucrados. (Kristeva, 1980; Derrida, 1975; Deleuze/Guattari, 1997; Barthes, 1974). Aunque la investigación se encuentra aún en progreso, la recodificación que hace Borges de los significantes románticos ingleses tyger y nightingale parece tener importantes implicancias desde la perspectiva del postcolonialismo, ya que el juego literario conducido por Borges establece una relación de paridad con el centro que cuestiona la sujeción periférica de América Latina al centro Europeo.

La littérature est une source d'où jaillissent les flots intarissables du paradoxe ; c'est dans cet entrelacement de dichotomies que nous nous sommes immergées pour percevoir l'unité sous-jacente derrière l'oxymore que constitue le titre de notre thèse : " une poétique de l'abjection dans la littérature gothique américaine postmoderne. " Si nous nous sommes tournées vers Stephen King, Peter Straub et Chuck Palahniuk et avons mis l'accent sur trois de leurs œuvres précises, notre démonstration se veut être transposable à l'ensemble de leurs écrits. Nous nous sommes interrogées sur la nature de l'abjection et sur sa prééminence dans une société américaine portant le sceau du puritanisme. Marqués par le Romantisme et le Gothique anglais, nos auteurs ont su donner aux thématiques caractérisant ces mouvements une voie nouvelle. Situer nos œuvres dans la lignée du gothique postmoderne nous permet d'osciller sur le paradigme de l'excès et de l'incomplétude, de la déconstruction et de l'unité. Le thème de la fragmentation apparaît comme l'un des fils d'Ariane permettant aux auteurs de tisser autour des lecteurs leur toile arachnéenne. Ce démantèlement qui affecte à la fois la dimension narrative et thématique des récits contribue à leur effet patchwork et subversif, nous liant à notre problématique postmoderne. Les paradoxes engendrés par nos récits leur donnent leur force et expliquent leur fascination sur le public. Nos pérégrinations menant à l'ouverture des différentes portes de l'interprétation révèlent que l'abjection devient source d'une nouvelle esthétique. Le laid peut véhiculer de la beauté et du sublime. L'harmonie qui existe dans le monde de la déchéance qui nous est dépeint explique l'emprise hypnotique de la littérature de l'abjection sur le lecteur. Source de poétique, celle-ci procure un plaisir de la lecture quasi jouissif pour ceux qui se laissent transporter par la magie créatrice de nos auteurs.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis examines how context in Derridean signature theory is taboo and underutilized, and calls signature theory to embrace the contaminating mark of context. Signature theory, as proposed by Jacques Derrida and Peggy Kamuf, offers a mere glimpse into Romanticism’s strained relationship with the signature, with a close reading limited to Rousseau. This thesis widens the scope of existing signature scholarship, and expands the context of the signature by focusing on a variety of signatures, events and contexts to reveal that the slipperiness of the signature is a pervasive problem, irreducible to simply just Rousseau. This thesis does not involve a return to the origin, or a search for origins; Part I is a return to the period which Derridean signature theory investigates, in an attempt to interrogate Derrida, Kamuf, and the signature itself; expanding the concept of the signature through its various manifestations of handwork and linework, and weaving together a more complicated, contaminated, and ultimately convincing context for signature theory to begin (again) from. Part II forces signature theory to begin again by putting it into practice. Here, I take Kamuf to task for her failure to fully ‘contract’ the signature. She completely ignores the physical dimension of the word ‘contract.’ Going one step further than simply critiquing her signature practices, I ‘contract’ the signature by having Derrida’s signature tattooed on my body. The tattoo and its location comment on the current limitations of signature theory, and perhaps of academic practice generally; of contracting without touching, and fearing contexts.

This chapter begins by drawing out the similarities between Baudelairian Romanticism—especially the Baudelairian monster, ennui—and the protagonists and aesthetics of Enki Bilal’s Monstretetralogy. The ambiguity of the monster is likened to the relativization of good and evil discernible in Baudelaire's works. In addition to discussing the problematization of memory, the chapter also highlights connections between monstrous spaces and its monstrous inhabitants. A discussion of the amorphousness of monstrosity is followed by an examination of the roles of specularity and rebelliousness. The chapter ends with a brief reflection on how Monstreand fluid monsters reflect on modern and contemporary history. Comparisons are also made between Baudelaire's modern ennui and Bilal's postmodern monster, both of which reflect upon a broader cultural change and experience of everyday life.

Full textAbstract:
This article is devoted to the innovative violin method of teaching which reveals different angles of the paradigm processes of the formation of the text of violin instrumental music of the era on Romanticism and the semantic organization of the musical narrative in the development of the intertextual dialogue "one's own-another's" on the material of the 5th Caprice for Paganini's violin-solo. The problem of dialogue in art in a broad sense is now one of the most popular both in modern domestic musicology and in culture in general. This exploration constitutes a fragmented but very important section from the structural elements of which the research innovative violin methodology is formed and consist, which rapidly increases motility, qualitatively alters of sound production, accurately, clear articulation, uses new technology that instantly allows you get rid of tension in the muscles during the performances of musical pieces, regardless of the speed of the pace of the instrumental pieces being performed, allows instant concentration and helps to overcome the stage excitement of the performer, using a combination of carefully selected instrumental and psychological tools (attitude and practices). The technique pushed the author to highlight the main directions and principles of interaction of textual reincarnations. The stated problem significantly expands the spectral directions in the study of the semantic organization of narratives in research exploration. The study of the texts of instrumental pieces in intertextual interactions allows to get into the processes of text creation and to investigate their influence on the realization of the final idea of the composer and performer. The process of forming the text of instrumental music as the end result and the end point of full-fledged research is an open scientific problem. The peculiarity of this study is the intersection of musicological, cultural and psychological views on the stated issues. We’re guided in its work by various multifunctional methodologies of several scientific areas: from purely musical to culturological (using synergistic, hermeneutic, gnoseological and aesthetic approaches) and psychological (relying on the knowledge of the psychology of creativity using various setting and practices, existential approach). The use of research innovative violin technique makes this study unique and different from previous explorations. The approach to studying the text of any volume and complexity will be the key to a better understanding of the cultural dialogue of postmodern times, when the performer face to face enters into an imaginary dialogue of artists in the study of cultural processes, to better understand themselves, to clarify cultural, psychological and musicological paradigms of reading an artistic text. The study of the semantic mechanisms of the instrumental text will provide an opportunity to delve into the processes of textual dialogue and will reveal the features of the artistic possibilities of the theme of Caprice 5, which acts as an intertextual model for any instrumental pieces, regardless of the time of their creation. Culture reveals its meanings through the stylistics of texts, which is why it is so important to master different ways of thinking. And cultural stereoscopicity will allow us to consider the problem of intertext mechanisms polyphonically and dynamically, from the study of cultural codes and communications to the revival of cultural space in the polyphony of existence.
