The presentation of authorship in the works of Uwe Timm
No full textDie vorliegende Dissertation befasst sich mit der Frage der Inszenierung der Autorschaft am Beispiel von Uwe Timm. Dieser Problematik geht sie nach, indem sie vier unterschiedliche „begleitende“ Genres untersucht: Zeitschriften und Zeitungen, Reiseberichte, Autobiographien und Poetikvorlesungen, welche unter dem Begriff „Medien der Autorschaft“ nach Urs Meyer zu verstehen sind. Das Erkenntnisinteresse dieser Arbeit richtet sich auf die medialen Erscheinungsformen einerseits und auf die Darstellungsweise der Autorschaft andererseits. Auf dieser Grundlage werden multiple Autorbilder von Uwe Timm vor dem Hintergrund des Konzepts des literarischen Felds und des Habitus von Pierre Bourdieu herausgearbeitet: der politisch engagierte Autor, der Autor als Ethnologe, der Autor als Erinnerungsarbeiter des kollektiven Gedächtnisses sowie der Autor als Geschichtenerzähler.This dissertation addresses the question of how authorship is presented in the works of Uwe Timm. To explore this issue, four different “accompanying” genres have been considered: journals and newspapers, travel writings, autobiographies and poetic lectures, all of which are to be understood as “Media of Authorship” according to Urs Meyer. The discussion revolves around two aspects, the forms of media on the one hand, and the representational techniques on the other. Through Pierre Bourdieu’s concept of literary field and habitus, Uwe Timm’s multiple author images have been highlighted: the politically engaged author, the author as an ethnologist, the author as a memory worker of the collective memory and the author as a storyteller

Motive of food and its significance for the work of Uwe Timm
No full textThis thesis deals with the subject of food and its aspects in the work of Uwe Timm. The first part depicts different areas from everyday life which are in some way linked to food. German-speaking writers are mentioned for comparison since they address the subject of food in their literary works in some way as well. In the next section the biography of the author is presented, since he incorporates his autobiographical features and experiences in his work. Based on motive research, selected literary works by Uwe Timm are examined and different nuances of the aspect of food are presented. KEY WORDS food, motive of food, motive research, Uwe Timm, literatur
Nachgetragene Erinnerung: Uwe Timm, „Am Beispiel meines Bruders“ (2003) und Robert Schiff, „Feldpostbriefe. Chronik eines ungebauten Hauses“ (1994)
No full textUwe Timm and Robert Schiff have both written an autobiographical text dealing with the premature death of an elder brother who was a combattant in the Waffen-SS in their childhood. Despite the frappantly similar biographical constellation, there are differences in narrative technique and thematical focus that stem from their respective sociocultural context. The analysis shows that Timm is in many ways a representative author of the German ‘68 generation that critically reevaluates the attitude of their parents during the national socialist period and points to omissions and falsifications in the oral family history, while the narration of Schiff, an emigrated author born in the pre-war milieu of the German minority of Southwest Romania, is mainly a reconstruction of the impact of big history on his childhood and thus also the effort to conserve the memory of a world that has passed away and to reconcile himself with the experience of loss
Von Andreas Gryphius zu Uwe Timm: deutsche Parallelwege in der Aufnahme von Italiens Kunst, Poesie und Politik
Get PDFDeutsche Parallelwege in der Aufnahme von italiens Kunst, Poesie und Politik beabsichtigen das Italien-Bild aufgrund von jeweils zwei Texten deutscher Autoren, vornehmlich des späten 18. und des 19. Jahrhunderts zu untersuchen. Es wird z. B. die Bewertung der kunst der italienischen Renaissance bei Goethe und Wackenroeder thematisiert oder der deutsche Blick auf italienische Politik von zwei grundverschiedenen Autoren wie Karl Grün und Heinrich Hansjakob sowie als Nachklang bei Uwe Timm im späten 20. Jahrhundert behandelt. Ziel der Textanalyse ist weniger ein wertender Vergleich der beiden ausgewählten Autoren als vielmehr die Differenzen und Ahnlichkeiten sowohl in der literarischen Darbietung als auch im Blick auf Italien bei einem gleichen Thema klarer zum Vorschein kommen zu lassen. L’autore descrive l’immagine dell’Italia (arte, poesia, antropologia e politica) così come essa è rappresentata nella letteratura tedesca da Andreas Gryphius (1644) fino a Uwe Timm (1989). Attraverso l’analisi di testi di Andreas Gryphius, Johann Caspar, Johann Wolfgang Goethe, Wilhelm Heinrich Wackenroder, Joseph von Eichendorff, Johann Wilhelm von Archenholtz, Gustav Nicolai, Viktor Hehn, Paul Heyse, Ludwig Tiek, August Wilhelm Schlegel, Friedrich Schiller, Karl Grün, Heinrich Hansjakob, Theodor Fontane, Norbert C. Kaser e Uwe Timm vengono affrontate di riflesso le opere di Andrea Palladio, Carlo Cattaneo, Giuseppe Mazzini e Francesco De Sanctis in relazione sia al mito romantico del Rinascimento italiano sia a quello del Romanticismo tedesco nel Risorgimento italiano. Tematizzato viene poi il mito di Garibaldi versus Pio IX, e quello del comunismo nell’Italia meridionale del secondo Ottocento in relazione alla figura Antonio Gramsci nel 1933; quindi l’Italia come utopia romantica nel primo Ottocento e il paesaggio italiano come paradiso terrestre alla metà dello stesso secolo; infine, l’immagine di Roma moderna come città eterna

State dominance and Washington Consensus in the post--communist region. Christian Timm * Abstract The article analyzes state dominance in Georgia's economy between 2003 and 2010 from the perspective of the (new) developmental state. The specific interlinkage of economic model, law and administration through which state interventions may generate market-enhancing effects provides the analytical framework for the examination of Georgia's institutional setting

Insights into cellular and molecular mechanisms of normal and malignant hematopoiesis from mouse models
Get PDFAcute myeloid leukemia (AML) refers to a group of aggressive rare heterogenous hematological disease that results from clonal transformation of immature hematopoietic progenitors. Leukemic transformation of cells occurs due to the acquisitions of genetic aberrations that confer a proliferative and survival advantage, and diminished hematopoietic differentiation. Identification of key alterations and mechanisms in the epigenetic network leading to cellular transformation and disease progression may provide novel intervention points for therapy.
To better understand the role of the NSD1 H3K36 histone methyltransferase that is recurrently mutated in AML, our lab established conditional KO mice. All Nsd1-/- mice developed a lethal disease mimicking human acute erythroleukemia. By performing several comparative analyses, I was able to show that the activity of the SET-domain of Nsd1 is indispensable for terminal erythroid cell maturation. Our accumulative observations suggest a model where the NSD1 catalytic activity is essential for creating an erythroid promoting genome-wide epigenetic environment that modulates the activity of the GATA1 erythroid transcriptional master regulator (Chapter I).
To study the cellular origin of acute leukemia driven by MLL rearrangements, our lab established an inducible transgenic mouse model. Activation of the MLL-AF9 or MLL-ENL fusions led to fully reversible leukemia phenotype with some phenotypic differences. My work suggested that in contrast to MLL-AF9, the MLL-ENL fusion mostly targets multipotent progenitors leading to leukemia with myeloid and lymphoid characteristics. In addition, MLL-ENL expression level equal or exceeding the wild-type MLL seemed to be critical for leukemic transformation (Chapter II & appendix 1). MLL-fusions driven leukemia originating from hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) are characterized by elevated expression of the transcription factors ERG and EVI1. To better understand their role in the disease, I attempted to establish a transgenic fluorescent ERG reporter. Genome editing in zygotes allowed us to establish ERG-2A-YFP mice, however, I never detected the fluorescent signals, most likely due to low expression (Chapter III).
Transgenic mouse models have been extensively used for delineating human underlaying leukemogenic mechanisms and the development of new therapeutic agents. I wrote a review about the various types of AML mouse models generated, and how they helped in our understanding of disease etiology and progression (Appendix 2)
