Abstract:

This dissertation focuses on the construction of the narrated environment in W. G. Sebald's <em>Die Ausgewanderten</em>, <em>Die Ringe des Saturn</em>, and <em>Austerlitz</em>. Drawing on a constellation of ecocritical theories, I examine the ways in which memory and history are embedded in images of the built environment and how, in turn, this spatialization of the past contributes to a criticism of traditional linear narration. Sebald's texts create postmodern textual environments, urban, domestic, faux-pastoral, and heterotopian, that unite disparate times and spaces, demonstrating the need

Abstract:

Art History<br>M.A.<br>The German artist Anselm Kiefer and German author W. G. Sebald are prominent and innovative figures in their individual fields whose works deal with many of the same themes, such as destruction, memory, and mourning. Their historical retellings are mediated by their own experiences of growing up in postwar Germany and hover between reality and fiction. Kiefer and Sebald are not the only German artist and author to address themes related to World War II and the Holocaust; however, their works share similar approaches to those themes that are not universally utilized by th

Esta tese propõe uma investigação sobre a incorporação de imagens fotográficas em alguns textos literários contemporâneos. A partir da leitura de livros de W.G. Sebald, Bernardo Carvalho, Alan Pauls e Orhan Pamuk, busca-se analisar alguns dos efeitos produzidos pela presença de fotografias na narrativa, considerando, sobretudo, as relações que aí se estabelecem entre texto e imagem. De gênero dificilmente definível, os livros do alemão W. G. Sebald transitam entre a memória, o perfil biográfico, o relato de viagem, a ficção e o ensaio.

Abstract:

A presente dissertação de mestrado pretende analisar como o escritor alemão W.G. Sebald (1944-2001) enxerga a história, a memória e a ficção nos seus quatro livros em prosa. As narrativas desse autor lançam mão do procedimento de colecionar diversas pistas e fragmentos do passado, que surgem por meio de encontros com pessoas, imagens, objetos, paisagens e lugares da memória - algo que nos remete ao historiador arqueólogo-colecionador que Walter Benjamin dizia ser necessário para enxergar o passado de um modo crítico.

Abstract:

This paper seeks to investigate the nuances of the memory as ashes in the work of the writer W.G. Sebald. Centered on the effects of destruction, Sebald's writing continuously supports the idea of retention. Having The Rings of Saturn as central framework, due to its strong tone of compendium and the amplitude of the examined theme, the following itinerary registers the flux of the rescue of the ashes – understood as residue, reminiscence – through three essential points of convergence: Space, Image and Literature. The abovementioned categories will consider recurring aspects of the author's w

Abstract:

Novel: Fragments of a Former Moon The novel Fragments of a Former Moon (FFM) invokes the paradoxical earlier death of the still-living protagonist. The unmarried German woman is told that her skeletal remains have been discovered in Israel, thirty-eight years since her body was interred in 1967. This absurd premise raises issues of representing death in contemporary culture; death's destabilising effect on the individual's textual representation; post-Enlightenment dissolution of the modern rational self; and problems of mimetic post- Holocaust representation.

Abstract:

This thesis examines writing as a means of persuasion through which one might explore the grounds and scope of perception. Its primary focus is W. G. Sebald’s four works of prose fiction, Vertigo, The Rings of Saturn, The Emigrants and Austerlitz. I interpret Sebald as unique among contemporary writers of fiction in his sustained interest in the metaphysics of perception, in particular the role played by suggestive connections, and the kind of thinking that takes place in writing, as writing, while one writes. For Sebald, writing (both as material and as a representational device) and reading

Assim, mostraremos como os narradores, e os mediadores em geral, permitem a Sebald o tratamento desta questão sob o prisma da aproxima

Secondly, the language of photography and multilingual speech patterns in W. G. Sebald's The Emigrants (1992) are considered as vital elements of the authenticity play. The following chapter deals
