Carolin Duttlinger. Attention and Distraction in Modern German Literature, Thought, and Culture
Does Interaction With Out-Party Elites in a Classroom Setting Diminish Negative Partisanship
The American electorate is increasingly affectively polarized. Partisans dislike members of the opposing party, even going so far as to discriminate against opposing partisans in nonpolitical domains. Given the potentially pernicious consequences of affective polarization, especially in nonpolitical settings, scholars have suggested facilitating contact between members of opposing parties as a means of reducing affective polarization. We test thi…
Pseudo-Memoirs
Reviewed by: Pseudo-Memoirs: Life and Its Imitation in Modern Fiction by Rochelle Tobias Samuel Frederick (bio) Rochelle Tobias. Pseudo-Memoirs: Life and Its Imitation in Modern Fiction. U of Nebraska P, 2021. 204 pages. Rochelle Tobias’s bold and brilliant new book is an outlier among recent (and even classic) works on narrative and fictionality. Instead of engaging with the field of narratology (in its classical structuralist or postclassical v…
Narrative Constitution of Friendship
We argue that friendship is constituted in the practice of narration, not merely identified through psychological or sociological criteria. We show that whether two people have, as Aristotle argues, ‘lived together’ in ‘mutually acknowledged goodwill’ can be determined only through a narrative reconstruction of a shared past. We demonstrate this with a close reading of Thomas Bernhard’s Wittgenstein’s Nephew: A Friendship (1982). We argue that th…
The Self-Destruction of the Enlightenment Novel
Readers familiar with the first book-length publication in German dedicated to the theoretical study of the novel, Christian Friedrich von Blanckenburg’s Versuch uber den Roman (1774), might be forgiven for not knowing that the same author also published a novel. In the reception of both Blanckenburg and the eighteenth-century German novel, the theorist’s only work of fiction has been relegated to footnotes, when not ignored completely. There are…
A Bursting Zero of Unknowing
If to attain infinite knowledge is to relinquish the finite act of knowing, which necessarily divides and distinguishes, then pure knowing must be closer to a mode of unknowing. This paradox animates both Kleist's “Über das Marionettentheater” and Walser's Jakob von Gunten, each of which suggests that to access the absolute requires emptying oneself of thought so as to become like a puppet, which is no different than becoming a god. Using Kleist …
Dividing Zero
IT'S HARD TO IMAGINE THAT NOTHING AT ALL COULD BE SO EXCITING, COULD BE SO MUCH FUN. — Byrne (Talking Heads), "Heaven" 6/1 How is it possible to write about nothing? Only by forcing it into one of something's categories; by turning it inside out so that its contours might become visible; or by clothing it in vapid vestments that pretend to show what they in fact disguise? If we begin by defining nothing as something that does not exist,1 then not…
