Visual representation in the work of Joseph Roth, 1923-1932
No full textThrough an examination of Joseph Roth’s reportage and fiction published between 1923 and 1932, this thesis seeks to provide a systematic analysis of a particular aspect of the author’s literary style, namely his use of sharply focused visual representations, which are termed Heuristic Visuals. Close textual analysis, supplemented by insights from reader-response theory, psychology, psycholinguistics and sociology illuminate the function of these visual representations. The thesis also seeks to discover whether there are significant differences and correspondences in the use of visual representations between the reportage and fiction genres. Roth believed that writers should be engagiert, and that the truth could only be arrived at through close observation of reality, not subordinated to theory. The research analyses the techniques by which Roth challenges his readers and encourages them to discover the truth for themselves. Three basic variants of Heuristic Visuals are identified, and their use in different contexts, including that of dialectical presentations, is explored. There is evidence of the use of different variants of Heuristic Visuals according to the respective rhetorical demands of particular thematic issues. It has also been possible to establish synchronic correspondences between the different genres, and diachronic correspondences within genres. Although there are examples within the reportage where the entire article is based on an Heuristic Visual, the use of Heuristic Visuals cannot be seen as a key organizing principle in Roth’s work as a whole. As his mastery of the technique reaches its highest point in the early 1930s, Heuristic Visuals are often incorporated into the reconstruction of a complete sensory experience. Analysis of Roth’s heuristic use of visual representations has led to important insights, including a reinterpretation of the endings of Roth’s two most famous novels: Hiob and Radetzkymarsch
Vespericola ohlone Roth, sp. nov.
No full textVespericola ohlone Roth, sp. nov. (Figures 13) Mesodon (Aplodon) armigerus [Ancey], Cooper, 1887: 367, 368, 370, 374; non Vespericola armiger (Ancey, 1881). Vespericola columbiana pilosa (Henderson), Pilsbry, 1940: 896 898, in part (record from San Pablo, Contra Costa County). Vespericola, new species "o" Roth & Sadeghian, 2003: 37. Type material (all, formerly contained in lot SBMNH 03357): Holotype, SBMNH 348128, CALIFORNIA: Alameda County: “Patterson’s Willows” (probably now part of Coyote Hills Regional Park, approximately 37.55 ° N, 122.09 ° W), J. G. Cooper coll. 1 Mar 1875. Paratypes (37), SBMNH 348129, from same location as holotype. Additional paratypes deposited in ANSP (2), CAS (2), USNM (2). Referred material: CALIFORNIA: Contra Costa County: ANSP 1889 (3), San Pablo, A. D. Brown (?) coll. The collection date for this lot is unknown, but it was catalogued at ANSP between 1915 and 1919 (P. Callomon, personal communication, January 2003). Alameda County: SBMNH 0 3696 (11), collector unknown; USNM 30484 (4), Oakland, A. W. Crawford coll.; USNM 30485 (3), Oakland, A. W. Crawford coll. The latter two lots are undated, but A. W. Crawford was a resident of Oakland and active as a mollusk collector around the 1870 's (Pilsbry 1939: 63; Hanna and Smith 1954; Pressley 1983). Distribution: Alameda and Contra Costa counties, central California, U.S.A. Diagnosis: A mediumsized, thinshelled, setose Vespericola with base of shell produced and somewhat excavated around umbilicus, inner quadrant of base with small shelf set off by spiral sulcus behind basal lip, inner part of basal lip angled forward, and dilation of inner end of lip weakly impinging on umbilicus. Description: Shell diameter 11.715.4 mm; height 7.810.3 mm; heightdiameter ratio 0.570.74. Shell thin. Periphery broadest at or just above middle of whorl; tightly rounded (sometimes with a trace of angulation, especially on early body whorl near aperture), convexly sloping toward base. Whorls 5.56.2. Coiling tightness 2.052.42. Spire conical; apical angle approximately 130 °; whorls of spire flattened; suture moderately impressed to strongly impressed. Embryonic whorls 1.51.75; smooth for first 0.2 whorl, thereafter with crowded, irregular, papillose, radiating rugae. Early postembryonic sculpture of retractive collabral striae and minute, overall granulation; granules axially elongated, closeset, parallel to growth striae, giving way after about third whorl to irregular collabral wrinkling. Spiral sculpture absent. Surface of periostracum radially wrinkled, pebbly to scaly on first four whorls, smoother on whorls 56. Periostracal setae present; borne in distinct rows, oblique to coiling direction; rows of setae descending at approximately 4045 ° with respect to whorl trajectory; density of setae 1220 per mm ². Setae on spire and shoulder of body whorl 0.20.4 mm long; curving away from direction of coiling to mostly askew, and readily lost by abrasion; bases of setae not conspicuously broadened or forked at base. Finlike, abapertural basal extensions of setae absent. Tips of setae not recurved. Setae on base about as long as those on spire; setation extending into umbilicus. Base of shell produced and somewhat excavated around umbilicus; inner quadrant of base with small shelf set off by spiral sulcus behind basal lip. Inner quadrant of base not spirally corrugated behind basal lip. Umbilicus of moderate width; contained 1320 times in diameter. Body whorl behind aperture not deflected downward prior to preapertural constriction. Last quarterturn (approximately) of body whorl not compressed apicobasally. Aperture broadly earshaped. Peristome in lateral view shallowly concave; at angle of approximately 30 degrees to shell axis. Lip turned outward and expanded above periphery, reflected below periphery; face of expanded lip concave; basal lip not markedly more thickened than rest of peristome; inner part of basal lip angled forward; inner end of lip scarcely dilated; dilation of inner end of lip covering from less than 10 % to 50 % of umbilicus. Parietal callus extending only slightly to left of columella in basal view; with shallow sinus below upper limb of peristome. Parietal lamella absent. Color of fresh shell not known, museum specimens yellowish brown; lip whitish. Dimensions of holotype: Diameter 14.5 mm; height 9.7 mm; 6.1 whorls Etymology: Ohlone, a culture of Native American people who inhabited the San Francisco Bay area prior to the arrival of Europeans (cf. Margolin 1978). Remarks: Vespericola ohlone, sp. nov., differs from Vespericola pilosus (Henderson, 1928) in having its base produced and somewhat excavated around the umbilicus rather than tumid and solidlooking. The inner quadrant of the base has a small shelf set off by a spiral sulcus behind the basal lip, not found in V. p i l o s u s. The inner part of the basal lip is angled forward toward the front of the umbilicus, whereas that of V. p i l o s u s is straight or gently curved forward (see Roth & Miller, 1993: 136, figs. 13). The new species differs from Vespericola marinensis Roth & Miller, 1993, in having its base produced and somewhat excavated around the umbilicus rather than tumid and solidlooking. The inner quadrant of the base has a small shelf set off by a spiral sulcus behind the basal lip, not found in V. marinensis. The inner part of the basal lip of V. m a r i n ensis is gently curved forward, rather than angled as in V. o h l o n e (see Roth & Miller, 1993: 140, figs. 1416). Vespericola armiger (Ancey, 1881), to which Cooper (1887) referred this species, differs in that its umbilicus is a minute, oblique perforation, nearly or completely covered by dilation of the inner lip; the inner end of the basal lip is briefly angled forward then angled backward over the umbilicus (see Pilsbry, 1940: 910, fig. 521 a). A parietal lamella is present in V. armiger but is absent in V. ohlone.Published as part of Roth, Barry, 2003, Polygyrid land snails, Vespericola (Gastropoda: Pulmonata), 4.

To be or not to be Sade: Philip Roth, "Sabbath's Theater" and Libertine Thought
No full textreservedIl presente elaborato si propone di indagare, all'interno dell'opera di Philip Roth, le forme e le ricorrenze tematiche legate al pensiero libertino. Sebbene si consideri anche la poetica dell’autore in generale, il focus viene posto sulle opere giudicate più rappresentative, in cui "l'argomento" libertinismo risulta essere più pregnante; un ruolo di primaria importanza in questo senso lo ricopre l'opera "Sabbath's Theatre" ("Il teatro di Sabbath"). Nonostante l'indagine sia di tipo tematico-comparatistico non si rifiuta una rigorosa ricostruzione storica della figura del libertino, soprattutto per meglio definirne il profilo e le caratteristiche; inoltre, la fondazione di un canone di autori "libertini" risulta fondamentale per far emergere ricorrenze tematico-stilistiche utili per meglio approcciare l'opera di Roth.This paper aims to investigate, within the great work of Philip Roth, the forms and thematic recurrences related to Libertine Thought. Although it also consider the poetics of the author in its wholeness, the focus is placed on the most representative works, in which "the subject" libertinism is more meaningful; a role of primary importance in this perspective is the novel "Sabbath’s Theatre". Despite the fact that the investigation is of a thematic-comparative nature, it does not elude a rigorous historical reconstruction of the figure of the libertine, especially to better define his profile and characteristics; moreover, the foundation of a canon of "libertine" authors is fundamental to bring out significative thematic-stylistic recurrences to better approach Roth’s work
