Envisioning futures at new destinations
Imagination is central to migration. Geographical imaginaries, often shaped by historical narratives and mainstream media, allow people to envision futures elsewhere and influence migration aspirations. Using interviews with Nepalis who migrated to Malta in recent years, this article seeks to uncover how people imagine new destinations about which they have limited or no prior knowledge, and how these imaginaries compare to those of established d…
Cultural History After Foucault
Both as historian and maker of culture, Foucault infused numerous disciplines of study with a new conceptual vocabulary and an agenda for future research. His ideas have called central assumptions in Western culture into question and altered the ways in which scholars and social scientists approach such issues as discourse theory, theory of knowledge, Eros, technologies of the Self and Other, punishment and prisons, and asylums and madness. The c…
The Persistence of Voice
This work, completed by Neubauer on the very eve of his death in 2015, complements both his benchmark The Emancipation of Music from Language (Yale UP, 1986) and his History of the Literary Cultures of East-Central Europe (John Benjamins, 2004-10). It thematizes Romantic interest in oral speech, its poetical usage in music and musical discourse, and its political usage in the national-communitarian cult of the vernacular community. Subtly and wit…

History of the Literary Cultures of East-Central Europe
Types and stereotypes is the fourth and last volume of a path-breaking multinational literary history that incorporates innovative features relevant to the writing of literary history in general. Instead of offering a traditional chronological narrative of the period 1800-1989, the History of the Literary Cultures of East-Central Europe approaches the region’s literatures from five complementary angles, focusing on literature’s participation in a…

The Exile and Return of Writers from East-Central Europe
This first comparative study of writers who fled from both the Nazi and Communist dictatorships in East-Central Europe includes interpretations of individual trajectories, literary works, and exile literary cultures. A historical and theoretical introduction provides an overview of the events and studies exile cultures from Paris, London, and New York to Moscow, Toronto, and Buenos Aires. Interpretations of select writers are complemented by stud…
Voices from Exile
Exile, for all of its pain and suffering, has offered European writers a way to step out of their national linguistic and cultural environment. Did exiled writers make use of this opportunity, and start writing a ‘literature for Europe’? By no means all did; many of them sealed themselves off in order to maintain the purity of their mother tongue, while others ‘opened up’ and adjusted to the culture of their host country, often even by adopting i…
History of the Literary Cultures of East-Central Europe
The third volume in the History of the Literary Cultures of East-Central Europe focuses on the making and remaking of those institutional structures that engender and regulate the creation, distribution, and reception of literature. The focus here is not so much on shared institutions but rather on such region-wide analogous institutional processes as the national awakening, the modernist opening, and the communist regimentation, the canonization…
History of the Literary Cultures of East-Central Europe
Continuing the work undertaken in Vol. 1 of the History of the Literary Cultures of East-Central Europe , Vol. 2 considers various topographic sites—multicultural cities, border areas, cross-cultural corridors, multiethnic regions—that cut across national boundaries, rendering them permeable to the flow of hybrid cultural messages. By focusing on the literary cultures of specific geographical locations, this volume intends to put into practice a …

History of the Literary Cultures of East-Central Europe
National literary histories based on internally homogeneous native traditions have significantly contributed to the construction of national identities, especially in multicultural East-Central Europe, the region between the German and Russian hegemonic cultural powers stretching from the Baltic states to the Balkans. History of the Literary Cultures of East-Central Europe , which covers the last two hundred years, reconceptualizes these literary…

Reflections on the "Convergence" between Literature and Science
The invitation to this special issue of the MLN notes that "Literature and Science" have become increasingly prominent over the past fifteen years, due, in large measure, to "complementary tendencies in literary studies and the history of sciences." There is much to be said for this view, though, as I shall try to show, the postulated parallelism proves to be more complicated upon closer inspection. The invitation seems to acknowledge this by clo…
Foucault's Voices
Foucault’s Voices John Neubauer (bio) I want to listen to the voices in Foucault’s texts: to the voices of history, and the faint voices of the historians. I want to listen also to Foucault’s own changing voices: the way his voice changes from one work to another. 1 I am concerned with the modalities of speaking, not with the messages. I want to know who is speaking, on whose behalf, on what authority, to what public, and I want to find out wheth…

The Fin de Siècles in literature
Jacques Derrida's remark, ‘What is proper to a culture is to not be identical to itself,’ serves as a point of departure for a discussion of artistic and ethnic identities in late-19th and late 20th century literatures. The first part of this paper studies the images of the European and the colonized ‘Other’ in Joseph Conrad's The Heart of Darkness and J. M. Coetzee's Waiting for the Barbarians . The second part examines notions of artistic and e…

ACCORDING TO A STILL WIDELY HELD OPINION, the Storm and Stress and the subsequent romantic wave represented an emotional and irrational revolt against a shallow, rationalistic, and materialistic Enlightenment; but following Georg Lukacs's pioneering article on the Enlightenment tradition in Goethe's Werther, studies in recent decades have outlined more differentiated relations between the Enlightenment and later eighteenth century Germany.'

La philosophie de la physiologie d'Albrecht von Haller
The scientific and literary achievements of Albrecht von Haller were never questioned, but there has been much disagreement on the issue whether he was able to bring his scientific, philosophical, and religious beliefs into a harmonius synthesis. The recent and most comprehensive book on Haller by Richard Toellner (1971) suggests that Haller's thought possessed such a unity, and this judgment has remained unchallenged. This article reopens the qu…
