Against illustration
Building on recent specialised studies on the critique of illustration in individual authors or periods, this article develops a new methodology for a large comparative study of the critique of literary illustration. Notably, this article argues for the benefits of developing a catalogue of basic arguments levelled against the pictorial illustration of literary texts. By distinguishing between these arguments and by tracing these arguments throug…

Residual-based cointegration and non-cointegration tests for cointegrating polynomial regressions
Cointegrating polynomial regressions (CPRs), i.e., regressions that include deterministic terms, integrated processes and powers of integrated processes as explanatory variables and stationary errors, have become prominent in several fields of applications, e.g., in the analysis of environmental Kuznets curves. A key issue, as always in cointegration analysis, is testing for the presence or absence of a cointegrating relationship. This paper disc…
Mind the gap
Rural areas play a crucial role in addressing challenges related to climate change, food provision, biomass, and energy. At the same time, digital solutions have proven essential in improving safety, quality of life, and resilience in daily life. However, the lower population density and the lack of digital infrastructure in such rural areas make it difficult to develop technology-driven private businesses and public services. This can negatively…
The Freedom of a Playwright
This article builds on a passage from Johann Georg Hamann's Fünf Hirtenbriefe das Schuldrama betreffend (1763) to argue that the discourse on the rules of dramatic composition in the Sturm und Drang is shaped by an implicitly Lutheran logic of Christian freedom. That means that rather than emphasising the transgression of established rules, Sturm und Drang writers, like Luther's free Christian, sought to replace obedience to lower‐level laws with…
Introduction
In Tom Stoppard's Travesties (1974), the Russian revolutionary V. I. Lenin, the Dada artist Tristran Tzara, and the modernist author James Joyce tiptoe around each other in Zurich in 1917. As the Great War rages and revolution ferments beyond the Swiss borders, a communist convert, Cecily (who shares her name and personality with the flippant and flirtatious character from Oscar Wilde's The Importance of Being Earnest), is frustrated by her failu…
Excoriating Stalin, Criticizing Mao
Stalin and Mao both left pasts of terror and trauma their heirs had to address to embark on reforms that altered the quality of governance. In 1956 and 1978, Nikita Khrushchev and Deng Xiaoping confronted their Communist Parties with painful pasts and reevaluated the leaders' respective legacies. Although facing similar challenges in dealing with the devastating ramifications of arbitrary rule and cults of personality, Soviet and Chinese strategi…
The EU and protracted displacement
In this paper, we explore how the European Union (EU) legal and policy framework relates to protracted displacement. To this end, we examine the existing legal, policy and institutional framework both in the EU and globally, including the Common European Asylum System (CEAS), the 2015 ‘European Agenda on Migration’, and the New Pact on Migration and Asylum. Analytically, we employ Norbert Elias’ concept of ‘figurations’ as a conceptual lens to de…

Scheine drucken, Schätze evakuieren. Kontingenzbewältigung in Russland angesichts der Bedrohung St. Petersburgs 1812
Im Sommer 1812 sah das Russische Reich einer militärischen wie finanziellen Katastrophe entgegen. Noch bevor die napoleonische Grande Armée russisches Territorium betrat, hatte sich das Russische Imperium, erschüttert durch vergangene Kriege, in einer tiefen Schuldenkrise befunden. Mit dem Vormarsch der französischen Truppen geriet das Zarenreich zudem an den Rand der militärischen Niederlage. Russland stand einer doppelten Krise gegenüber – dem …

KPD-Verbot – KPÖ-Gebot
While the Communist Party of Germany was banned in 1956, its Austrian sister party continued to exist. In West Germany this was because of, and in Austria despite the fear of communism that had deeply permeated both political cultures. By differentiating anticommunism, a term that has so far been applied in the singular, into multiple and distinct anticommunisms, this article attempts to identify anti-Marxist, anti-Stalinist, and anti-Soviet moti…

Zur Gehorsamskritik im Burgtheater des Vormärz. Friedrich Halm, Eduard von Bauernfeld und der österreichische Liberalismus um 1848
Dieser Aufsatz widmet sich der Gehorsamskritik in den Komödien zweier der populärsten Burgtheaterautoren des neunzehnten Jahrhunderts, Friedrich Halm und Eduard von Bauernfeld. Dabei wird gezeigt, dass sowohl in Halms Verbot und Befehl (1848) als auch in Bauernfelds Großjährig (1846) ein älterer, auf direkte Unterwerfung ausgelegter Gehorsamsbegriff mit einem neuartigen ersetzt wird, in dem gehorsames und freigewähltes Verhalten tendenziell zusam…
Introduction
Know thy unknowns
Since 2009 the European Commission (EC) is seeking a legal definition of endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs). These compounds ‘interfere with any aspect of hormone action’, and by doing so can adversely affect physiology and development and thus increase the risk of metabolic and reproductive disorders as well as hormone-sensitive carcinogenesis and impaired neurodevelopment.1 Accordingly, EDCs put a considerable burden on public health and pub…

Can Freud Explain Atheism
Despite the fact that Sigmund Freud repeatedly and critically dealt with the history of religion from its origins to the present, he hardly ever mentions the historical rise of atheism in modernity in his writings. Starting from this observation, I ask whether the historical emergence of atheism can be explained at all within the framework of Freud's theory of religion. In the first part of my article I concentrate on Freud's monograph Die Zukunf…
