Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Leichte Verformung / umgeknickte Seiten. The contemporary question of iconography has gained urgency, addressing the politics and poetics of visual representation within specific historical and cultural contexts. This inquiry transcends traditional boundaries, urging a critical comparison of the iconographies of words and images as cultural practices of power.

Each contribution emphasizes the image as a visual and contextual event, highlighting its role in the interplay between word and image. The collected works examine how these representations serve as both sources and targets of iconographic practices, reflecting broader cultural dynamics. The volume features diverse perspectives from contributors such as Winfried Fluck, Mario Klarer, Mick Gidley, and others, all united in their exploration of contemporary iconography. They collectively delve into the significance of images as interconnected phenomena, revealing the complexities of visual representation in today's cultural landscape.…

Condition: Neu. The Politics and Poetics of Visual Representation. Edited by Ulla Haselstein, Berndt Ostendorf and Peter Schneck. Today the question of iconography has taken on a new and more general urgency. As a dominant cultural practice, iconography embraces the politics as well as the poetics of visual representation within their specific historical and cultural conditions. In its contemporary significance the question of iconography moreover reaches beyond disciplinary boundaries of conventional definitions and interpretations of the relation between words and images in a demand to critically compare and contrast their different iconographies as cultural practices of power. In their distinct arguments and from different perspectives, the 15 essays collected in this volume are all similarly concerned with the iconographical power and poetics of the image, including a broad range of visual representations: prints and illustrations, painting, sculpture and concept art, documentary and art photography, film comedy and digital imagery. In all these instances, the image is looked at not as an exclusive and isolated phenomenon but, rather emphatically, as a visual and contextual event; as both the source and target of the collision and the collusion of word and image; as instances and symptoms of contemporary iconographic practice alike. - Contents: Winfried Fluck: Aesthetic Experience of the Image. - Mario Klarer: Before Ornament was a Crime.

Condition: Neu. Fifty Years of American Studies in Germany. Edited by Ulla Haselstein and Berndt Ostendorf. 50th annual meeting of the German Association for American Studies (GAAS)/Deutsche Gesellschaft für Amerikastudien (DGfA) at Munich, June 10 to 13, 2003. "Renegaten" aus der Anglistik, die sich der moderneren amerikanischen Literatur zuwandten, Emigranten wie Ernst Fraenkel und Theodor W. Adorno, die aus Amerika zurückgekehrt waren und "odd fellows", die aufgrund ihrer Biografie zu den Amerikastudien gelangten - diese spannende Mischung kennzeichnete die Mitglieder der Deutschen Gesellschaft für Amerikastudien (DGfA). 1953 in Marburg von ursprünglich 53 Mitgliedern gegründet zählt die DGfA heute über 800 Mitglieder. Während in den Anfangsjahren überwiegend Sozialwissenschaftler die Gesellschaft prägten, haben sich heute die Gewichte zugunsten der Literatur- und Kulturwissenschaftler verschoben. Der vorliegende Sammelband ist anlässlich des fünfzigsten Geburtstags der Deutschen Gesellschaft für Amerikastudien erschienen. Die 18 Beiträge rekapitulieren unte anderem die Entwicklung der Amerikastudien in Deutschland, zeichnen die Verbindungen zwischen Frankfurter Schule und den Amerikastudien nach, untersuchen die Darstellung der Vereinigten Staaten in deutschen Schulen und Universitäten, gehen auf die Entwicklung der Amerikanistik in der DDR ein und analysieren die Rolle der Vereinigten Staaten in der deutschen Politikwissenschaft. - Aus dem Inhalt: 50 Jahre Amerikastudien. - American Studies and the Frankfurter School. - American Ethnicity. - New Aesthetic forms. - American legal culture and the problem of hegemony. - Changes in the representation of the USA in teaching at German schools and universities. - Deutsche Nordamerikaforschung im 20. Jahrhundert: Zu Geschichte und Vorgeschichte der DGfA. -- The volume celebrates the 50th anniversary of the German Association of American Studies. The first section is devoted to memories of the beginnings of American Studies after the war; returnees and local renegades from English, History or Politics began mapping out the field between these competing disciplines, as Ursula Brumm and Reinhard Doerries record in vivid detail. The second section addresses moral and political perspectives of globalization; marshalling Immanuel Kant and Hannah Arendt, Seyla Benhabib places transatlantic negotiations between the twin poles of hospitality and sovereignty: Erna Brodber argues for a Caribbean cultural space with Marcus Garvey's impact on the US; Michael Kammen records the contacts and collusions between history and neighboring disciplines contributing to American Studies. Workshops were devoted to the postwar efforts to transcend the limits of Old World traditions and to establish a German perspective in American Studies. The interdisciplinary approach was reflected by topics such as the impact of the Frankfurt school on the formation of German American Studies; American hegemony in a globalized world; American policies of immigration;the impact of American popular culture; new aesthetic forms in the US. A fair cross-section of research interests and practices of American Studies in Germany is represented by workshop contributors Ilka Saal, Ulf Schulenburg, Nicole Waller, Jochen Achilles, Herbert Grabes, Michaela Giesenkirchen, Sieglinde Lemke, Knud Krakau, Andreas Paulus, Ina Bergmann, Gabriele Linke, Rainer Schnoor, and Michael Dreyer.
