If We Had the Word: Ingeborg Bachmann, Views and Reviews (Studies in Austrian Literature, Culture, and Thought) - Softcover
Synopsis
The 13 essays of this collection comment on the works of the Austrian writer Ingeborg Bachmann (d.1973). First conceived at a symposium held in 1996 at the State U. of New York in Binghampton (where Brinker-Gabler teaches comparative literature) in honor of what would have been Bachmann's 70th birthday, the collection features the scholarship of 15 academics who teach mainly in the US; three are in Austria and Germany. Topics include her essay on Wittgenstein; a comparative reading with a poem by Apollinaire; a critique of the film version of Malina; and essays on gender, women and writing, and politics, as these are represented in her novels and poetry.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Ingeborg Bachmann (1926-1973) was one of the most significant post-war women writers in German language literature and remains one of the most important writers of our time. Over thirty years after her death, her work continues to attract the critical attentions of a wide general readership as well as scholars from many different disciplines, not least because her poems, short stories, critical essays, radio plays and novels deal with issues that continue to haunt contemporary culture: history, gender, exile, war, memory and the Holocaust. A poet, writer and trained philosopher, Bachmann relentlessly proved what she believed was the potential of language and writing to raise awareness and effect change in a culture marked by violence against women, individual and collective trauma, the effacement of memory, the forgetting of atrocities, and the silencing of victims. The multifaceted, interdisciplinary approaches to Ingeborg Bachmann's work make this collection appealing and relevant to both critics and scholars of Ingeborg Bachmann and to everyone interested in critical theory and contemporary culture.
