Revisiting Brokeback Mountain – how mountains matter, or
Returning to Brokeback Mountain and its mountainous aesthetics, my contribution develops a three-part argument that reengages the cinematic landscape projected in Ang Lee’s ‘love story’ – a landscape that echoes, as I show, a national visual culture mapped and remapped by paradigmatic moments in art, photography, and film. In part one, ‘Brokeback Mountain and “the force-field of melodrama”’, I show how mountains figure and function in the central…

Interkulturelle Schauplätze in der Großstadt
Die Großstädte wachsen. Vor allem in Asien und Südamerika stellen sie herkömmliche urbanistische Konzepte in Frage.

Fashioning the Female Subject
In Fashioning the Female Subject, Sabine Sielke addresses the often nebulous concept of female subjectivity through a critical analysis of the poetry of Emily Dickinson, Marianne Moore, and Adrienne Rich, each of whom has uniquely fashioned and transformed the female subject over the last 150 years. Applying the feminist theories of Kristeva, Irigaray, and Cixous, Sielke articulately develops a notion of female subjectivity as an intertextual net…
