Wolfgang Bauer
No full textKurt Bartschs Beitrag über Wolfgang Bauer ist eine kompakte Einführung in dessen Gesamtwerk. Bartsch, der Bauers dramatisches Werk gegen die Zuordnung zum neuen kritischen Volksstück eines Franz Xaver Kroetz oder Peter Turrini in Schutz nimmt, weist mittels close reading nach, dass Bauer von seinem ersten, vom absurden Theater Ionescos beeinflussten Einakter, Der Schweinetransport, bis zu Magnetküssen (1975), Skizzenbuch (1994/95) und Café Tamagotchi (1998), mittels seines Metatheaters permanent das Prinzip der Wirklichkeit in Frage stellt. Dabei ist dem Werk Bauers, welches nicht nur die Schranken zwischen E- und U-Kultur aufhebt, sondern stets die Gattung selbst reflektiert, die permanente Auseinandersetzung mit avantgardistischen Kunstrichtungen eingeschrieben
"Heimat ist, wo irgendeiner wohnt". Reinhard P. Gruber, der "Heimatentheoretiker"
No full textAngesichts von Flüchtlingsströmen und dem Wiederaufleben national getönter Heimatdebatten stellt sich heutzutage erneut die Frage nach der Bedeutung von Heimat und Zuhausesein. In seinem Beitrag „‚Heimat ist, wo irgendeiner wohnt.’ Reinhard P. Gruber, der ‚Heimatentheoretiker’“ untersucht der Grazer Literaturwissenschaftler Kurt Bartsch ausgehend von dessen Punzierung als „satirischer Heimatdichter“ Grubers Umgang mit dem ideologisch überfrachteten Begriff. Beginnend mit unterschiedlichen Definitionen (als Besitz, Territorium, Idylle, Ort, wo „noch niemand war“) zeigt Bartsch anhand der drei Texte Heimat ist, wo das Herz weh tut. 35 Fragmente eines konkreten Beitrags zu einer antiutopischen Heimatentheorie, Heimatlos. Eine steirische Wirtshausoper in einem Rausch und Aus dem Leben Hödlmosers. Ein steirischer Roman mit Regie Grubers augenzwinkerndes Unterlaufen jedweder Heimatideologie durch Verfahrensweisen der Wissenschafts- und Sprachsatire wie auch der Textklassenparodie (von tautologischen Argumentationen über übertriebene Affirmation bis zur ironisierenden Konfrontation unterschiedlicher Textmodelle) auf und verortet dessen Schreiben – in Abgrenzung vom sog. Antiheimatroman wie auch dem kritischen Volksstück – im Bereich des Karnevalesken, das auf die subversiv-befreiende Wirkung des Lachens setze

Dorsal plates with costae. Surface of costae not reticulated but canaliculi arranged in groups. Integument between costae with epicuticular droplets forming a reticulum; canaliculi within reticulum (polygons) more delicate than within costae. AD slightly more than 1.2 times longer than wide. Transverse costa on AD at about 0.5 and more narrow than longitudinal costae, middle part slightly curved posteriad (Figure 1A). Pair of ds-1 level with gland pores. OC 1.4 times longer than wide; glp on OC removed from posterior cornea, situated about halfway between that cornea and pc (Figure 1B) or at 0.4 along lateral margin of OC. PD of female and male almost equal-shaped, 1.2-1.3 times longer than wide. Medial costae on PD rather narrow, width in middle part of plate equalling three groups with canaliculi, else costae two groups wide. Pair of ds-4 level with or immediately posterior to edge of OC; pair of ds- 5 in anterior half of PD, outside costae, pair of ds-6 on PD.</p> <p>Ventral plates faintly reticulated, with rather evenly spread canaliculi within each polygon, mostly with (6-)11-17(-18) canaliculi per polygon. Anterior margin of female GA truncate, that of male slightly convex. Male with 36-39 pgs around GO and pair of outlying setae.

Der Löwe mit der besonders schönen langen Mähne
No full textThis is a long and enjoyable development of a Kalila and Dimna story usually told about a hare and a lion. Here a mouse takes the place of the hare. At least in some versions of Kalila and Dimna, the story has to do with regulated sacrifice. Here the inciting incident is that the mouse not only does not proclaim You are the king of the animals but even says out loud You are not the strongest. The mouse then, when he has the lion's attention, cleverly says that he is sad because the lion will not much longer be king. He gets the lion to be inquisitive about this stronger competitor. The mouse even asks the king if he might be afraid of this competitor, and all the animals recognize that the lion lies in his answer. The mouse then offers to help the lion by showing him the way to this competitor. The lion rejects that offer, since it would take days to get there; of course he then offers to take the mouse on his back. The lion has overnight to think about it -- and of course to let his fear increase. In this version, the mouse throws a little stone into the well to make the lion there move and seem to swim. The best illustration of a strongly illustrated book comes next as the lion is absolutely perpendicular to the horizon in his dive into the well. At last the animals have quiet, but do not know that it has come from a mouse.This is a hardbound book (hard cover)Language note: German4. AuflageKurt Davi

ANHRT code: ANHRT00029058 (deposited in ANHRT); 2♂ GUINEA, Nimba Mountains, Cité 1, SMFG concession area pheromone lures 20–31.V.2017 (deposited in SMNS). Etymology. The species is named to honour Franz Pühringer and his work on Sesiidae. Franz also supported the senior author’s interest on African Sesiidae, and helped him to build an important collection. Description. Alar expanse: 19.5 mm. Head black with strong silvery gloss; labial palpus completely and pericephalic scales laterally orange-red; eye bald, black; antenna black, filiform, slightly pillose. Thorax brick-red dorsally, laterally and ventrally somewhat paler orange-red. Legs orange-red; foreleg with tibia and tarsus dorsally black; midleg dorsally with small black spots at tibia proximally and distally, first tarsomere dorso-distally, other tarsomeres dorsally throughout black; hindleg with tibia and first tarsomere dorsodistally, other tarsomeres completely black. Forewing opaque, shiny black, basally small red. Hindwing basally transparent, distally increasingly opaque, dark grey. Ciliae (fringes) of all wings hair-like, black. Abdomen dorsally brick-red with prominent black longitudinal stripe on tergites 2–7, ventrally orange-red. Anal tuft small, dorso-ventrally flat, black, medially red and ventro-basally with some red scales. Female unknown. Variation insignificant. Male genitalia. Generally weakly sclerotised; uncus long, pointy with strong sclerotized tip, slightly hairy; tegumen broad, angled dorsally; saccus very long, narrow, lanceolate; valvae bi-lobed, upper lobe thumb-like with rounded tip, lower lobe gently pointed; aedeagus (phallus) very long and slender, longer than valva and saccus together. Diagnosis. Conopsia puehringeri sp. nov. could be confused only with the presumably closely related C. bicolor, however, it is generally slightly smaller with characteristic black stripe present on the dorsal side of the abdomen (stripe missing in C. bicolor). Further diagnostic characters are: forewing base small red (more extensive red in C. bicolor, particularly along the costa); no red colour is present on hindwing (semi-transparent area on hindwing edged with red in C. bicolor); antenna completely black (tip red in C. bicolor); male genitalia with bilobed valva (trapezoid in C. bicolor, ending in a single blunt tip). Behaviour, habitat and distribution. All specimens were captured at a mixture of pheromone lures synthesised for 15, predominantly Western Palearctic Sesiidae species. Specimens were attracted between 15.30 and 17.00 h at the beginning of the rainy season in mid-altitude savannah and upland forest mosaic in the Nimba Mountains, Guinea. The species’ distribution or habitat requirements are difficult to conclude from the limited material available, however, C. puehringeri sp. nov. could easily be a restricted range species, specialised in upland habitats in the Guinea Highlands or distributed in the Liberian sub-region of West Africa. Using pheromones lures two months later and at the same locality, Conopsia bicolor was also captured in a series of over 20 specimens. The latter species was also found by the senior author in recent years in Liberia and Ghana, as well as together with Franz Pühringer and Norbert Pöll in Ghana in 2011. Furthermore, the series of C. bicolor specimens presented in Kallies (2000) from Nigeria was also collected with the help of pheromones. Overall, these data suggest a wide, West African distribution of C. bicolor. During these earlier surveys, no specimens of C. puehringeri have been collected.Published as part of Sáfián, Szabolcs & Bartsch, Daniel, 2018, A new species of Conopsia Strand, 1913 (Lepidoptera: Sesiidae: Tinthiinae) from West Africa, pp. 147-150 in Zootaxa 4524 (1) on pages 148-150, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4524.1.12, http://zenodo.org/record/261029
