Trace et aura. Remarques à propos du Livre des passages de Walter Benjamin
« La trace est l’apparition d’une proximité, quelque lointain que puisse être ce qui l’a laissée. L’aura est l’apparition d’un lointain, quelque proche que puisse être ce qui l’évoque. Avec la trace, nous nous emparons de la chose ; avec l’aura, c’est elle qui se rend maîtresse de nous. » (M 16a, 4) I.

Modernity and Literary Tradition
L'usage de la fiction en histoire
The Literary Process of Modernism from Rousseau to Adorno
A spectre is haunting Europe-the spectre of the postmodern. If that lEXnotorious ghost of 1848, against which all of the powers of the old Europe ... had united in a holy alliance' was its legitimate and not simply its rhetorical predecessor, then one would have to speak of a complete commutatio rerum. For today, new powers in the USA and in Europe, members of the aesthetic avant-garde calling for a counterculture, conservative social critics wit…
The book Jonah ‐ a paradigm of the ‘hermeneutics of strangeness’
The Old Testament book Jonah provides for a unique hermeneutical study of strangeness. The context and questions pertaining to it are considered, focussing on the strangeness of events and characters as they present themselves to a modern day secular reader. In both early Christianity and folktales the miraculous was readily accepted, while the distinction between fiction and reality is a relatively recent development. The book Jonah with its mor…

Limits and Tasks of Literary Hermeneutics
The foundation of methodical development of literary hermeneutics represents an altogether new proposition. There existed for centuries an old tradition of philological hermeneutics. It can glory in its venerable origins: the interpretation of ecclesiastical canonical writing, an art which ever since the period of Humanism has been erecting for itself a proud monument of re-edited and corrected texts and commentaries of ancient authors. It can al…
An Interview with Hans Robert Jauss
Q: In 1972 you came to the conclusion that the of had introduced a new paradigm for literary studies. Do you still hold this opinion? Rene Wellek, for example, has demurred, noting that there have always been investigations like the of reception; Manfred Naumann speaks of a swing of the pendulum rather than a change of paradigms. In other words, what was paradigmatically new that the of brought to literary studies? A: As in other disciplines, a s…

Levels of Identification of Hero and Audience
way in which active man is presented, that is, with reference to idea of hero. The historiographic schema of idealistic aesthetics, as also of archetypal criticism, was a kind of scale which determined range of concept of character, from incantation of a god through aristocratic down to average man of everyday reality. Thus, Northrop Frye has constructed a five-step typology of according to degrees of capacity for action, and has elucidated this …
Literary History as a Challenge to Literary Theory
take up once again the unresolved dispute between the Marxist and formalist schools. My attempt to bridge the gap between literature and history, between historical and aesthetic approaches, begins at the point at which both schools stop. Their methods understand the literary fact in terms of the circular aesthetic system of production and of representation. In doing so, they deprive literature of a dimension which unalterably belongs to its aest…
