Musikstädte as real and imaginary soundscapes: urban musical images as literary motifs in twentieth-century German modernism
PhDThis study examines German literary images of musical life as part of the wider sound identity of the modern German city at the turn of the twentieth century. Focussing on a forty-year period from 1890 to 1930, synonymous with the emergence of the modern German metropolis as an aesthetic object, the project assesses, compares and contrasts how musical life in the Musikstädte was perceived and portrayed by writers in an increasingly noisy urban environment. How does urban musical life influence and condition city writings? What are the differences and similarities between the writings on various musical cities? Can an urban textual sound identity be derived from these differences and similarities? The approach employed to answer these questions is a new, cross-disciplinary one to urban sound in literature, moving beyond reading the key sounds of the urban soundscape using urban musicology, sensorial anthropology and cultural poetics towards a literary contextualisation of the urban aural experience.
The literary motifs of the symphony, the gramophone and urban noise are put under the spotlight through the analysis of a wide range of modernist works by authors who have a special relationship with music. At the centre of this analysis are the Kaffeehausliteratur authors Hermann Bahr, Alfred Polgar and Peter Altenberg, the then Munich-based author Thomas Mann and the lesser known René Schickele. The analysis of these particular works is framed in the music-geographical context of the Musikstadt and literary underpinnings of this topos, ranging from Ingeborg Bachmann to Hans Mayer and, once again, Thomas Mann. In analysing these texts, the methodological approach devised by Strohm, who identifies the blending of a range of urban sounds as a definition of urban space and identity, is applied. His ideas combine historical literary
analysis, musical history and urban sociology. They are rarely used in the analysis of the auditory environment.Arts and Humanities Research Council

Looking for a Collective Memory Inscribed in the Illustrations of French and Italian Newspapers
Chapter 7, “Looking for a Collective Memory Inscribed in the
Illustrations of French and Italian Newspapers” by Alida Maria Silletti,
investigates illustrations in Peircean and “techno-discursive” semiotic
approach (Peirce 1978; Paveau 2017). The results of her analysis, informed
by memory studies (Casey 2000; Sangar 2015), put into evidence that
national specificities took precedence over a shared significance of WWI
armistice Centenary mostly because the Italian WWI armistice and commemoration
day on 4 November is also the Italian Unity and the Italian
Armies day. This happened even though illustrations dealing with the
WWI commemoration testify to increasingly shared collective memories
between France and Italy
Crisi e krisis nell’apocalittica giudaica
The widely – even if not unanimously – shared interpretation of Jewish Apocalypticism as a ‘crisis literature’, leads us to the parable known by the term and by the notion of krisis, and urges us to look at Jewish Apocalypticism, in order to prove the presence of a dialectic between krisis and crisis in its history. Jewish Apocalypticism, often defined by modern studies as a ‘crisis literature’, has one of its privileged loci in the link between the modern meaning of ‘crisis’ and the original meaning of krisis. What in modern days is usually defined by the word ‘crisis’, to the author of an apocalyptic text, like to its readers, appeared as the result of a divine judgment (krisis), which solicits a human judgment, according to modalities and intensities that vary between the various works traditionally ascribed to Jewish Apocalypticism, and between the different historical periods in which Jewish apocalyptic thinking unfolds
