Uspomeni Karla Krausa

Author(s): Miroslav Krleža / Language(s): Croatian Publication Year: 0

Bilo je to prije dvije godine. U vrijeme ono mnogo se pisalo u njemačkoj štampi o Krausovoj izjavi, »da mu na temu Hitler ne pada ništa na pamet«, kad je kroz naš mali grad proputovao jedan austrijski pjesnik. Jedna veličina austrijske poezije, a bilo je ljeto, i na terasi hotela Esplande (gdje po Milanu Ćurčinu uz sladoled propovijedam svoje ljevičarske teorije) imao sam čast da s tim austrijskim poetom razgovaram o pitanju Karla Krausa.

Recepcija Karla Krausa u Jugoslaviji

Author(s): Obrad Savić / Language(s): Serbian Publication Year: 0

O Karlu Krausu se u Jugoslaviji pisalo još to- kom života ovog izuzetno razornog satiričara, koji je, pored drugih, austrijsku književnost učinio svetskom. Veoma rano je nametnuta specifična političko – jezička recepcija koja je odredila dalji tok pretežno polarizovanih političkih debata. Veliki virtuoz reči, koji je u svojim dramama, satirama i aforizmima negovao platonovsku ljubav prema nemačkom jeziku, recipiran je u okruženju osobenog ‘srednjoevropskog komparativizma’, u ambijentu centralnoevropske kulturnog miljea ličenog napadne ‘pangermanske’ konotacije.

Moć nemoći

Author(s): Hans Weigel / Language(s): Serbian Publication Year: 0

Između pisma sa fronta Hermana Bara (Hermann Bahr) i sastava »Posle leta«, Hugo fon Hofmanstal (Hugo von Hofmannsthal) je ipak još jednom izričito pomenut po imenu u Die Fackelu, iako tek kao povod za jednu veliku i nužnu odluku, koja je, svesno tek onako usput saopštena publici 24. septembra 1922. godine, pre jednog čitanja Nestrojevog Talismana u narednom novembarskom broju Die Fackela odštampana na uvodnom mestu (»O velikoj prevari svetskog pozorišta«), dok je službeno registrovana 7. marta 1923. Karl Kraus svoje napuštanje hebrejske i pristup katoličkoj verskoj zajednici nije bio obznanio ovako javno. On je smatrao da je ovaj korak više nego puka privatna stvar.

Karl Kraus i Arnold Šenberg

Author(s): Friedrich Pfäfflin / Language(s): Serbian Publication Year: 0

Proslave stogodišnjica rođenja Karla Krausa i Arnolda Šenberga tokom 1971. godine, izazivaju osećaj da je potomstvo sklopilo mir sa njima. Obojica su tom potomstvu ostavili svoja predviđanja. Šenberg je pri kraju života bio siguran: »Druga polovina ovog stoleća precenjivanjem će pokvariti ono što mi je prva polovina učinila dobrim«. Kraus, koji je za života imao hiljade čitalaca, ipak se osećao pogrešno shvaćenim. Odbacivao je prosto interesovanje za svoje delo i želeo da sačeka dok ne sazru »njegove stvari – kako bi možda postao aktuelan«.

Književnost i odgovornost O aforistici i lirici Karla Krausa

Author(s): Dietrich Simon / Language(s): Serbian Publication Year: 0

O Karlu Krausu davane su skoro samo apsolutne ocene i skoro da nema pisca o kome su davane tako apsolutne ocene kao o njemu. Elijas Kaneti naveo je, na primer, kad se zapitao šta je naučio od Krausa, »prvo i pre svega osećaj apsolutne odgovornosti« a zatim, govoreći o Krausovoj književnoj metodi, on kaže: »Jer pada u oči da je struktura kojoj nedostaje celina, prisutna u svakoj rečenici. Sve strasti kreacije, kojima pisci treba da su bogati, kod Krausa se iscrpljuju u pojedinačnoj rečenici…

Životopis Pave Anđelića

Author(s): Tomislav Anđelić / Language(s): Croatian Publication Year: 0

Pavo Anđelić rođen je u Sultićima 1920. godine u pitoresknom selu u području Neretvice (Klis), općina Konjic. Osnovno obrazovanje stekao je u Seonici u Neretvici, gdje je još 1907. godine sagrađena osnovna škola. Nakon završetka škole u Seonici roditelji ga šalju u Visoko, gdje završava klasičnu franjevačku gimnaziju i gdje stječe solidnu klasičnu naobrazbu. Nastavak školovanja uslijedio je na Franjevačkoj teologiji u Sarajevu. Suviše nježna zdravlja, napušta studij u Sarajevu. Ubrzo izbija II. svjetski rat, a Pavo odlazi u Zagreb, gdje u vihoru rata služi vojni rok, te studira pravo. Položivši veliki broj ispita, vraća se u rodne Sultiće, u Konjic. U ranom poraću završava pravo i postaje sudac kotarskog suda u Konjicu. Na mjestu suca ostaje 6-7 godina. U to vrijeme počinje pražnjenje bazena za Jablaničko jezero. Trebalo je spasiti sve pokretne i nepokretne spomenike kulture. Pavo se, još od ranije zaljubljenik u kulturno-povijesnu baštinu, s kustosima Zemaljskog muzeja uključuje u arheološka istraživanja, rekognosciranja i zbrinjavanja arheoloških lokaliteta i pokretnih spomenika kulture. Sve više radi kao arheolog, sve manje kao sudac.

Heraldički problem vladarskog i državnog grba Bosne prema koncepciji Pave Anđelića

Author(s): Emir O. Filipović / Language(s): Bosnian Publication Year: 0

Since the correct interpretation of heraldry can result in knowledge about precisely defined political programmes and personal aspirations of Bosnian rulers in the Middle ages, the main aim of this paper is to present an outline of history of the medieval Bosnian coat of arms through the works of Pavao Anđelić, who is the first historian from Bosnia and Herzegovina to have systematically researched medieval Bosnian heraldry. His contribution to our knowledge of this subject is immense because he dealt with a large number of different heraldic problems, of which his work on the coat of arms of the Bosnian state and its monarch is certainly the most important one. The main issue of Bosnian heraldry is based on the fact that Bosnian kings used two different coats of arms during the same period of time. It is thought that one of these symbols represents the Bosnian state, while the other one could represent the king. If this assumption were to be right, this specific case of the Bosnian coat of arms would be documented as a rare occurrence in European heraldry. The other problem that arises with this question is of a more historical than heraldic nature; what were the motives for the inconsistent use of one symbol for representation of the king? Through his research Pavao Anđelić was able to form a specific concept of coexistence of these different heraldic devices used by Bosnian rulers. His theory rests mainly on the idea of territorial unity of Bosnian lands which was formed during the reign of king Tvrtko I (1353-1391). According to his works, the coat of arms formed by king Ostoja (1398-1404; 1409-1418) during his second reign represents the entire Bosnian kingdom (including the Serbian lands), while the old device of king Tvrtko I continues to be used as a symbol of the Kotromanić dynasty and Bosnia proper.

Kulturno-umjetnička društva Lašvanske doline

Author(s): Vladimir Grganović / Language(s): Croatian Publication Year: 0

The Croatian country people from Jajce to Bila over the centuries wore the same national costumes, varying only in single tiny details in men and women’s dress. Traditional tunes have been preserved in singing by folklore clubs in this region and are types of older or recent polyphone praxis. Heterogeneousness and creativity are expressed in forming strophe-melodiousness and short and long song-sentence. The poetic text is mostly primary, but often the text is subordinated to the expression of the melody. In the article folk clubs in Lašva’s Valley are described as keeping vivid traditional folk memory: Paklarevo, Napredak Novi Travnik and Vitez, KUD “Žena” from Nova Bila, and the most famous ”Sloga” from Guča Gora, also renowned outside Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Pourquoi et comment les portes parlent

Author(s): Pascal Dibie / Language(s): French Publication Year: 0

The door is not an object like the others, its evocation is almost always symbolic and this is how the doors have become subjects. Where does this taste for doors come from? Are they really protecting us? No door has ever succeeded in closing a space permanently. Let us remember that the door, this pivoting wall has two sides: the one which is seen from inside the house corresponding to the interior with all the limits that this implies, and the one which is seen from the outside of the house, the "outside the door”, the always threatening exterior.

Vie et rêve, « vases communicants »

Author(s): Maria Tronea / Language(s): French Publication Year: 0

This paper explores the relationship between reality and dream, between the real and the unreal in the Francophone imaginary. It describes the evolution of this relationship in all its aspects and approaches starting from the Romantics. The analysis is based on Francophone literature in Belgium, which is characterized by an intricate tension between the real and the unreal. Ulenspiegel’s Legend by Charles De Coster is considered to be the founding text on human propensity to dream and it paves the way for Modernist aesthetic theories. The same approach can be found in Maurice Maeterlink’s works where the threshold between reality and unreality is widely discussed. Franz Hellens, who promoted the fantastic in his works, wrote what can be termed as an extension of surrealism in Belgian literature, while Michel de Ghelderode associated onirism with painting-ness. The power of dreams in Marguerite Yourcenar’s characters relied on the theory of the communicating vessels, and Jean Ray adopted a classical fantastic centered on the paranormal. The paper ends with Paul Willems whose works are imbued with onirism and magic realism.

« Le Horla » de Guy de Maupassant - entre réalité, pathologie et métaphysique des seuils

Author(s): Ana-Elena Costandache / Language(s): French Publication Year: 0

Novel with biographical echoes, "Le Horla" by Guy de Maupassant join the series of fantasy stories that explore the human dyad, or the double of the individual. Made in the form of a (fake) private diary that involves both author and reader, the novel develops an approach that pendulum between several “realities” through questions of identity. Lost between reality and dream, reason and madness, logical and fantastic, the character-narrator offers the reader the possibility of deciding, for himself, whether the reveals events could be considered as rational or whether they cross the threshold of the supernatural. Consequently, we offer a fine analysis of this dramatic ambiguity which is maintained by the distinct points of view of the author and the narrator.

Le seuil dans « La Barbe Bleue » de Charles Perrault - entre l'initiation pédagogique et la réalisation stylistique

Author(s): Ioana-Rucsandra Dascălu / Language(s): French Publication Year: 0

Charles Perrault’s “Blue Beard” was classified among initiation tales, in which the door, the key, the threshold symbolize mystery, death danger, as well as the saving of the young wife. Critical interpretations compared Greek and Roman characters: the gods Janus, Saturn and Chronos, who all had keys and cutting objects to split time. There is a possible connection with the Breton legend of Gilles de Rais (XVth century), as well as with the folk motif of the sun which killed dawn and of day which killed night. We intend to emphasize stylistic features and contexts, where the threshold, the door and the key appear from the beginning to the end, in order to show that these are the essential points which assure the progress of narration; we comment upon their linguistic achievement through presentatives, conjunctions and adverbs, which are used to interrupt a state and to mark renewal and the passage to another state. These verbal forms convey surprise, with respect to the marvelous and the unexpected, to those who read or listen to the tale.

Représentations de la fenêtre dans « La Seconde Chance » de Virgil Gheorghiu

Author(s): Mirela Drăgoi / Language(s): French Publication Year: 0

"The Second Chance" [La Seconde Chance] is the second novel that C. V. Gheorghiu, the Romanian writer of French expression, published in France, after the Second World War. The author considers that the title mirrors perfectly the definition of the exiled and his intention of highlighting the drama of the man that is forced to leave his own country and live in another space - a « second hand life » perceived as a second chance. The space imagined in the narrative is dualistic, with characters pondering between identity and otherness, interior and exterior, the threshold among these two universes being s symbolic of freedom and captivity. This paper has the objective of identifying the meanings that C. V. Gheorghiu attributes to the space of the action and to the cultural content featured by the binary construction of the spatial coordinates.

« Barbe Bleue » d'Amélie Nothomb - avatars et perspectives

Author(s): Elena Simina Bădărău / Language(s): French Publication Year: 0

"Blue Beard" by Amélie Nothomb illustrates from the very beginning certain elements of intertextuality and seeks to enrich the famous story of Charles Perrault through an insolit perspective and innovative style, dynamic dialogues and powerful characters showing extreme passions. One can identify here the phenomenology of the mystery referring to a secret chamber, associated with inexpressible things, whose indiscretion becomes overwhelming. Stepping through the door (“l’entr-ouvert”) - unavoidable and terrifying place, means beyond doubt changing the characters’s lives. Our study mainly refers to a comparative analysis which focuses both on the metamorphosis of the story into a novel and the avatars of the latter one along the process of narration or adaptation from Blue Beard myth in a modern context, in short, the premises of an original writing, surprising and profound at the same time.

De Van Eyck à Vermeer : à la recherche d'une symbolique de l'espace

Author(s): Cristina Poede / Language(s): French Publication Year: 0

From the fervent universe of “The Mystic Lamb” to the tranquility of bourgeois interiors hiding secrets, Dutch painting evokes an ever more symbolic space marked by thresholds, doors and stairs, cautious or exuberant windows, interior courtyards conducive to melancholy and meditation. French writers have often revealed their attraction for Flemish and Dutch masters: Théophile Gautier (“A Tour in Belgium and Holland”), Gérard de Nerval (“Lorely. Souvenirs d'Allemagne”), Baudelaire (“Les Phares”), Marcel Proust (“The Prisoner”), Paul Valéry (“The Return from Holland”), Marguerite Yourcenar (“L’oeuvre au noir”) comment on the works of these painters, with whom they experienced subtle aesthetic affinities. The paper is an attempt to achieve a diachronic division of two centuries in order to observe certain modifications concerning the representation of space in Flemish and Dutch painting, modifications which took place from the late Middle Ages to the Golden Age, including the Renaissance.

Ionesco et le seuil de la théorie (de la littérature)

Author(s): Iulian-Emil Coțofană / Language(s): French Publication Year: 0

This research tries to propose a different attempt to approach the writings of and the critique discourse on Eugène Ionesco. The basic guidelines consist of the means of reflecting derived from what could still be named theory of literature. The possibilities of questioning the functioning of literature and of literary criticism are, in principle, rendered visible and intelligible by the domain of theory. It is in this sense that we consider theory as a central threshold before the text, since theory comes before practice or, in other words, theories regulate the reading of a text. The text is preceded by the conventions of reading and by horizons of the reader. But theoretical discourse represents a chance to contribute to their exposure and it helps to question how the text is made (constrained) to signify. After sketching the theoretical sphere, we test certain hypotheses starting from the prefaces and the introduction to the English and French editions of “The Theater of the Absurd”. Moreover, we choose a short text included in “Présent passé, passé present” in order to illustrate a theoretical reading. Thus we bring to light a configuration of theoretical means related to the practices of the critique and literary discourses.

Le modèle français dans la culture roumaine au XIXe siècle – la formation de la jeune génération

Author(s): Dana Damian / Language(s): French Publication Year: 0

During the 19th century, the French model exerted a decisive influence on the modernizing Romanian social, intellectual and cultural life, integrating mentalities of Western Europe different from the Eastern “models” - Turkish, Greek, Russian - until then. French influence reached its peak and manifested itself in almost all areas of social and cultural life. The Romanians found in French culture and spirituality a source of inspiration, a model, a training base. Through French influence, Romanian culture crosses the threshold to modernity. One can observe the readiness of the Romanians to push the door of the West, an action capable of triggering a series of visible and irreversible acts for the creation of the modern state.

De l'approximation ou du refus de dénomination dans « Un fin passage » de France Daigle

Author(s): Cristina Petraş / Language(s): French Publication Year: 0

The designative expressions used to refer to some of the characters (anonymous ones) in the novel “Un fin passage” by France Daigle indicate a particular way of considering them and a specific narrative technique. To take a few examples, one of them is designated by “une sorte de prêtre”, “le prêtre générique”, “le poperabbin”, “le dénommé Shimon”, another by “l’homme qui n’a / avait pas l’air de lire”, a third one by “la femme à la laitue”, “la femme qui ne fume qu’en public”, “la femme qu’il disait aimer”. These expressions depict identities with fuzzy, diffuse outlines, that rely on the immediate context. This hesitation in giving characters lexicalized names is only one manifestation of what might be called a difficulty in naming things, in general (see metalinguistic expressions, approximation).
