Literatura Latinoamericana Mundial
World Literature, Cosmopolitanism, Globality
From today’s vantage point it can be denied that the confidence in the abilities of globalism, mobility, and cosmopolitanism to illuminate cultural signification processes of our time has been severely shaken. In the face of this crisis, a key concept of this globalizing optimism as World Literature has been for the past twenty years necessarily is in the need of a comprehensive revision. World Literature, Cosmopolitanism, Globality: Beyond, Agai…
Conviviality in (Post)Colonial Societies
This article asks about the norms and the forms of knowledge about conviviality in Caribbean literatures of the 19th century, as the discourses of racism were being established and the question of conviviality was negotiated very intensely. To what degree it is possible to critically challenge essentialist constructions in an era that has gone down in history as the heyday of racism? Can a sharper look at representations of conviviality lead us t…
Re-mapping World Literature
How can we talk about World Literature if we do not actually examine the world as a whole? Research on World Literature commonly focuses on the dynamics of a western center and a southern periphery, ignoring the fact that numerous literary relationships exist beyond these established constellations of thinking and reading within the Global South. Re-Mapping World Literature suggests a different approach that aims to investigate new navigational t…
Re-mapping World Literature
The concept at issue in this book is Weltliteratur, or World Literature. Theoretical frameworks usually view the now-famous epistolary exchange between Johann Wolfgang von Goethe and the young Johann Peter Eckermann as the true foundation of the concept, (though earlier promoters of similar ideas, such as August Wilhelm Schlegel can be cited)1. Goethe wrote this to Eckermann in a well-known letter in 1827: ?National literature is now a rather unm…
Re-mapping World Literature from Macondo
Their theoretical reflections have contributed in different ways to an analysis of the paths of circulation traversed by literary texts on their way to canonization. This debate, however, seldom questions the established centers of denominating power which are located in Western Europe and the USA
Crossroads of Colonial Cultures
The study examines cultural effects of various colonial systems of government in the Spanish- and French-speaking Caribbean in a little investigated period of transition: from the French Revolution to the abolition of slavery in Cuba (1789–1886). The comparison of cultural transfer processes by means of literary production from and about the Caribbean, embedded in a broader context of the circulation of culture and knowledge deciphers the differe…
Cultural Forms of Representation of 'Coolies'
Cultural Forms of Representation of ‘Coolies’
Cultural studies attempt to systematically conceptualise a "conviviality in peace and difference" in a wide variety of spaces around the world that have taken on a greater role since the beginning of the twenty-first century (Ette 2010: 169-170, 183).They have been developed in response to the failure of the label 'multiculturalism', or as a rejection of the essentialist concept of identity.For a number of obvious reasons, they are currently the …

Bonded Labour
Parallel to the abolition of Atlantic slavery, new forms of indentured labour stilled global capitalism's need for cheap, disposable labour. The famous 'coolie trade' - mainly Asian labourers transferred to French and British islands in the Indian Ocean, Australia, Indonesia, South Africa, the Caribbean, the Americas, as well as to Portuguese colonies in Africa - was one of the largest migration movements in global history. Indentured contract wo…
O romance como coletânea de contos
O romance como coletânea de contos experimenta um notável vigor nas literaturas latino-americanas aproximadamente desde 1989. Isto possivelmente se deve, entre outros fatores, à mudança de paradigma realizada em diversos graus pelos próprios autores do chamado boom da literatura latino-americana. O presente artigo compara as primeiras obras de representantes canônicos como Carlos Fuentes e Gabriel García Márquez com as respectivas obras tardias, …

Frankophone Literaturen außerhalb Frankreichs
Die Gebiete des heutigen Belgien gehörten, abgesehen von der Provinz Lüttich, zu den zentralen Territorien Burgunds und seit dem 16. Jh. zu den Spanischen beziehungsweise Habsburgischen Niederlanden. Nicht zuletzt aufgrund einer hochentwickelten Buch- und Druckkultur entsteht hier ein umfangreiches Schrifttum in französischer Sprache. Zu den bekanntesten Autoren der burgundischen Zeit gehörten im 14. und 15. Jh. die Verfasser von wichtigen Chroni…
Französische Literaturgeschichte
Vom mittelalterlichen Rolandslied bis zur Gegenwartsliteratur. Die beliebte Literaturgeschichte führt durch sämtliche Epochen und Gattungen und ordnet die Meilensteine der französischen Literatur in ihren kulturellen und ideengeschichtlichen Kontext ein. Neben Namen mit weltweiter Strahlkraft wie Molière und Racine, Voltaire, Hugo, Sartre und Camus finden auch weniger bekannte Autorinnen und Autoren, "kleinere" Gattungen wie der Kriminalroman ode…
La littérature mondiale comme stratégie
Cette contribution part de deux conceptions différentes du terme de littérature mondiale : d’une part du concept de littérature mondiale utilisé par Goethe, tendentiellement eurocentriste et fondé sur la relation entre centre et périphérie, et d’autre part du concept de « Littérature-monde » crée en 2007 par Édouard Glissant et d’autres auteurs francophones et basé sur une compréhension nomade et décentrée des textes de la littérature mondiale co…
