The Columbia Guide to the Literatures of Eastern Europe Since 1945
For nearly half a century, the Iron Curtain obscured from Western eyes a vital group of national and regional writers. Seen as a whole, the literatures of Eastern Europe during the second half of the twentieth century are extraordinarily rich, and in recent years many Eastern European novelists, poets, and playwrights have attracted wider attention and broader publication in the West. And yet no reference work, embracing all the countries of this…
Body Ascendant
Segel, Harold B. Body Ascendant: Modernism and the Physical Imperative. Baltimore: The Johns Hopkins UP, 1998. 282 pp. $35.95. In Body Ascendant Harold Segel proposes that we look at modernism as a disenchantment with intellectuality and the mind, and a fascination with the physical body. Segel finds evidence for this thesis in many realms, from the preoccupation with dance and pantomime to skeptical views on language and the popularity of sports…
The Death of Tarelkin and Other Plays
The Vienna Coffeehouse Wits, 1890-1938
This detailed study charts the uneven growth of the Austrian navy from its high point following Archduke Ferdinand Max's administration and the War of 1866 to its ultimate dissolution after World War 1.

Fin de siecle Cabaret
The Dada movement, which both anticipated and prepared the way for surrealism by a few years, saw the light of day in the Cabaret Voltaire in Zurich, Switzerland on February 2, 1916.1 The first program began, not surprisingly, with the Frenchman Alfred Jarry's irreverent, mocking farce Ubu Roi, a burlesque of Shakespeare's Macbeth written in the late 1880s as a puppet show, first staged in Paris in 1896, where it was the sensation of the season, …

Sienkiewicz's First Translator, Jeremiah Curtin
Sienkiewicz himself visited America in 1876, in fact traveled extensively through the country and recorded his impressions at some length in his Listy z Ameryki (Letters from America), a large part of which was translated into English and published in 1959. Sienkiewicz's relations with Helena Modrzejewska (Modjeska) and her debut in the American theater at the time of his visit add to the interest of his sojourn in the United States. Another phas…
