Echi di August Klingemann in Joseph von Eichendorff. «Viel Lärmen um Nichts» e l’eredità romantica: [Echoes of August Klingemann in Joseph von Eichendorff. «Viel Lärmen um Nichts» and the romantic heritage]
This paper aims to investigate the presence of August Klingemann’s early Romantic «Musterroman» Romano (1800-1801) in Joseph von Eichendorff’s late Romantic tale Viel Lärmen um Nichts [Much Ado About Nothing]. Published in 1832, Viel Lärmen um Nichts provides insight into the ongoing decline of German Romanticism, by considering themes, characters and symbols of the Romantic movement – such as the role of subjectivity, dream and imagination – and highlighting their being out of place in dealing with the depiction of a changed historical and cultural context. While Eichendorff’s nostalgic view is displayed through the adventures of prince Romano, who embodies Romanticism in its anachronistic features, it is by means of Willibald and Aurora’s reunion at the end of the story that Eichendorff, in the final stage of his literary production, gives voice to his hope for a new dawn of Romantic poetry
Die Unverständlichkeit der Lyrik: The incomprehensibility of poetry
In this essay, I examine the connection between poetry and the incomprehensibility of some of its exemplars. In particular, I examine the rise of incomprehensible poetry to being the epitome of modern poetry in the history of poetry, and I develop explanations for the significance of incomprehensible poetry in global modernity
I ‘nuovi cittadini tedeschi’ e il dibattito sulla singolarità dell’Olocausto. Su «Adas Raum» di Sharon Dodua Otoo: [The ‘new German citizens’ and the debate on the singularity of the Holocaust. On «Adas Raum» by Sharon Dodua Otoo]
This paper aims to investigate the relevance of Sharon Dodua Otoo’s debut novel Adas Raum in the ongoing Historikerstreit 2.0. Relevant to this new historical dispute is the possible connection between colonialism and the memory of the Holocaust. As I will show, Adas Raum seems to respond artistically to critical suggestions proposed by Michael Rothberg who interprets the link between memory and identity in a complex way, which results in non-competitive participation in collective memory construction in multi-ethnic societies and redefines the relevance of such categories as victims and perpetrators
