Kumpitz in progress : "Aus dem Leben Hödlmosers" (1973) in Reinhard P. Grubers Vorlaß: Werkgenese, Reaktionen und produktive Rezeption
No full textDie vorliegende Masterarbeit sichtet, analysiert und kontextualisiert jene im Vorlass von Reinhard P. Gruber enthaltenen Archivalien, die im Zusammenhang mit dessen berühmtestem Roman ‚Aus dem Leben Hödlmosers‘ (1973) stehen. Dabei gibt sie einerseits einige Einblicke in die Werkgenese, zeichnet andererseits ein umfassendes Panorama der ‚realweltlichen‘ und literaturkritischen Reaktionen auf den Text und stellt nicht zuletzt einige Beispiele für die produktive Rezeption des ‚Hödlmoser‘-Stoffs vor. Zudem präsentiert die Arbeit das Leben und das Werk Grubers, problematisiert die häufig getroffene Zuordnung des Romans zur (Anti-)Heimatliteratur und diskutiert das Verhältnis Grubers zur ‚Grazer Gruppe‘. Damit möchte sie eine in dieser Form erstmalige Grundlagenarbeit leisten, die den Roman nicht nur als solchen, nämlich als isolierten Text, in den Blick nimmt, sondern als bis heute produktives intermediales Phänomen. Nicht zuletzt sollen dabei aber auch einige Um- und Abwege der kurz-, mittel- und langfristigen ‚Hödlmoser‘-Rezeption nachgezeichnet und mögliche Ursachen für eine solche im Werk und seinem Umfeld lokalisiert werden.This Master’s thesis examines, analyses and contextualises the archival material from Reinhard P. Gruber’s personal archive related to his most famous novel ‘Aus dem Leben Hödlmosers’ (1973). On the one hand, it provides some insights into the genesis of the work; on the other, it draws a broad panorama of the ‘real-world’ and literary-critical reactions on the text and, not least, presents some examples of the productive reception of the ‘Hödlmoser’ story. In addition, the thesis introduces to Gruber’s life and work, problematises the novel’s frequent classification as (anti-) ‘Heimat’ literature and discusses Gruber’s relationship to the ‘Grazer Gruppe’. In doing so, it aims to provide basic research for the first time in this form, focussing on the novel not only as such, as an isolated text, but as a productive intermedial phenomenon up to the present day. However, the thesis also intends to outline some of the deviations of Hödlmoser’s short-, medium- and long-term reception as well as to localise potential reasons for such developments within the text and its surroundings.vorgelegt von Daniel Milkovits, MA BEdMasterarbeit Universität Graz 202
Report on Meteorological Research March 1, 1935 (m-1)
No full textThe object of the report was to elucidate in detail the various features of the research program in meteorology being carried on at the Daniel Guggenheim Airship Institute in Akron, Ohio. Mr. L. J. Fangman, of the U.S. Weather Bureau, was collaborating with the author in carrying out work such as a study of autographic records of the various meteorological elements during frontal passages with a view to the possible prediction of the intensity of the accompanying disturbance as it may affect the operation of aircraft and a study of atmospheric gustiness with a view to finding the dependence between frequency end amplitude of velocity fluctuations and the vertical temperature and velocity gradients
(Fourth) Report on Meteorological Activities at the DGAI (8-1-36)(Weather Bureau Copy)
No full textThis report is on the investigations of frontal phenomena at the Daniel Guggenheim Airship Institute in Akron, Ohio from January 1, 1935 through August 1, 1936. The investigation was carried out with the cooperation of the U.S. Bureau of Aeronautics, the U.S. Weather Bureau, the California Institute of Technology, and the Guggenheim Airship Institute. Mr. R.C. Robinson of the Weather Bureau cooperated with the author in carrying out the investigation. The object of the investigation was to determine the intensity of the atmospheric disturbances (i.e. rapidity of wind shift and gustiness) accompanying the passage of cold fronts, along with a study of the characteristics of the air masses involved and other features which might affect the intensity of the disturbance. The report treated thirty cold fronts which passed the station during 1935 to 1936

No full textThreshold dramas : case studies on the Austrian Post-War Folk Play (Kortner, Bronnen, Hochwälder)
No full textDie vorliegende Masterarbeit geht anhand von Fritz Kortners ‚Donauwellen‘ (1949), Arnolt Bronnens ‚Die jüngste Nacht‘ (1952) und Fritz Hochwälders ‚Der Himbeerpflücker‘ (1965) der Frage nach, wie Spielformen des Volksstücks im Österreich der ersten Nachkriegsjahrzehnte zur Auseinandersetzung mit der jüngsten Geschichte genutzt werden konnten. Das Volksstück nach 1945 ist – so die These – ein ‚Schwellendrama‘: Während die Geschichtspolitik Österreichs auf ökonomische wie politische Stabilisierung abzielte und daher eine klare Zäsur zwischen nationalsozialistischer Vergangenheit und demokratischer Gegenwart zu ziehen suchte, inszenieren die diskutierten Dramen prekäre Zustände des Dazwischen, des Noch-nicht und Nicht-mehr. Vor diesem Hintergrund versucht die Arbeit, Diskurse, Ästhetiken, Plots und Figurenkonstellationen der analysierten Texte zu untersuchen, sie in den Kontext ihrer Entstehungszeit zu stellen, aber auch auf historische Strukturen der Wiener Komödie zu beziehen. Dabei sollen Volksstücke nicht nur als Medien literarischer Vergangenheitsaufarbeitung, sondern auch als Erprobungen in den Blick rücken, ob und wie Komödien über den und nach dem ‚Zivilisationsbruch‘ (Dan Diner) überhaupt geschrieben werden können.This Master’s thesis analyses Fritz Kortner’s ‘Donauwellen’ (Danube Waves, 1949), Arnolt Bronnen’s ‘Die jüngste Nacht’ (The Last Night, 1952) and Fritz Hochwälder’s ‘Der Himbeerpflücker’ (The Raspberry Picker, 1965) to investigate how the folk play was used to deal with recent history in Austria during the first post-war decades. It is argued that the folk play after 1945 is a ‘threshold drama’: while Austria’s politics of history aimed at economic and political stabilisation and therefore drew a very clear cut between the national socialist past and the democratic present, the discussed dramas present precarious states of in-between, of not-yet and no-longer. Against this background, the thesis examines the discourses, aesthetics, plots and characters of the texts and places them in the context of their time but also relates them to historical structures of Viennese comedy. In this way, folk plays will be considered not only as media of dealing with the past through literature, but also as experiments on whether and in which ways comedies about and after the ‘rupture of civilisation’ (Dan Diner) can even be written.Daniel Milkovits MA MA BEdMasterarbeit Universität Graz 202

Daniel Emmett postcard
No full textPostcard of Daniel Emmett and his home in Mount Vernon, Ohio. Emmett is considered to be the author of the antebellum song "Dixie," written in 1859, which became the unofficial song of the Confederate soldiers during the American Civil War. He was born in Mount Vernon in 1815 and taught himself the fiddle, and later became associated with minstrel shows and helped to define that genre. Minstrel shows traveled around the United States, presenting skits and musical performances. Emmett also composed many other songs, including "Old Dan Tucker," "Turkey in the Straw," and "The Blue Tail Fly." He died in 1904
