A Specter is Haunting Europe

Autor: José B. Monleón , Jose B. Monleon

Número de Páginas: 188

Departing from established structuralist or psychological approaches to the fantastic, Jos Monlecn offers an ideological reading of this literary product of mass culture. In an exploration of the origins and development of the fantastic, Monlecn traces the relation of reason to unreason in light of three distinct events that influenced capitalist thinking: the French Revolution, the uprisings of 1848, and the Bolshevik Revolution. The fantastic, Monlecn argues, reflected social tensions and produced a cultural space in which to appropriate fears brought on by the revolutions--to tame the "specter" mentioned by Marx and Engels in The Communist Manifesto. At the same time the fantastic helped carve in Europe a defense of order through the introduction of unreason as a viable discourse. Monlecn pays particular attention to the development of the fantastic in Spain, whose unique economic and cultural conditions form a distinct background against which to test his paradigm for the development of the genre in the rest of Europe. This study touches upon a wide range of works, including those by Bcquer, BazNBn, Galdcs, Alarccn, Maupassant, Shelley, Poe, and James, as well as etchings by...

A History of Moonville, Ohio and a Collection of Its Haunting Tales

Autor: William M. Cullen

Número de Páginas: 80

A History of Moonville, Ohio and a Collection of its Haunting Tales, Revised Edition, is an updated version of a previous work the author had published back in 2008. This revised edition contains more detailed history about Moonville and its surrounding towns, such as Zaleski, on how they came to be, most notably that Moonville was named by the railroad after a general store proprietor rather than the man who had actually founded the town; and that Zaleski was named after a Polish/French financier who never came to America to see his namesake town. This revised edition also contains more haunting tales of what had happened to some of those who had lived and worked in this remote mining town in eastern Vinton County, Ohio, mainly covering those who had been involved in train accidents surrounding the still-standing tunnel as these trains came barreling through the area; plus, there are a few tales of murder as well. There are also a few light-hearted tales most notably that of a well-known English author who had passed through Moonville on his way to tour America back in the late 1860s as well as a story about some feisty sisters, in Athens, who took on the expanding railroad....

Die Manipulatorin Ich kann die Emotionen von jedem manipulieren, der es zulässt. Ich werde dich verletzen, dich weinen lassen, dich zum Lachen und Seufzen bringen. Aber meine Worte berühren ihn nicht. Besonders dann nicht, wenn ich darum flehe, dass er geht. Er ist immer da, beobachtet und wartet. Und ich kann niemals wegschauen. Nicht, wenn ich möchte, dass er näher kommt. Der Schatten Ich wollte mich nicht verlieben. Aber jetzt kann ich ihr nicht mehr fernbleiben. Ich bin fasziniert von ihrem Lächeln, von ihren Augen und der Art, wie sie sich bewegt. Der Art, wie sie sich auszieht ... Ich werde weiter zusehen und warten. Bis ich sie die Meine nennen kann. Und wenn sie es erst einmal ist, werde ich sie nie wieder gehen lassen. Nicht einmal, wenn sie bettelt. Leseempfehlung: ab 18 Jahre

Street Haunting: A London Adventure

Autor: Virginia Woolf

Número de Páginas: 27

“Street Haunting: A London Adventure” is a 1930 essay written by Virginia Woolf, inspired by observations made whilst walking the streets of London. Adeline Virginia Woolf (1882–1941) was an English writer. She is widely hailed as being among the most influential modernist authors of the 20th century and a pioneer of stream of consciousness narration. Woolf was a central figure in the feminist criticism movement of the 1970s, her works having inspired countless women to take up the cause. She suffered numerous nervous breakdowns during her life primarily as a result of the deaths of family members, and it is now believed that she may have suffered from bipolar disorder. In 1941, Woolf drowned herself in the River Ouse at Lewes, aged 59. A poignant essay not to be missed by those with an interest in feminism and feminist literature.

Space, Haunting, Discourse

Autor: Maria Holmgren Troy , Elisabeth Wennö

Número de Páginas: 226

This anthology reflects the current interest in the concept of space as a revitalising approach to literary, social, mental, political and discursive phenomena. The contributions, which examine novels, films, art, and cultures, invite the reader to consider the function of space in human constructions as symbolic representation, analytical tool, discursive strategy and haunting effect. In a wider context they demonstrate the extent to which spatiality impacts on our lives and has ethical, political, historical and cultural implications. The contributors represent a wide range of disciplines in the Humanties: Literature, Photography, Art, Human Geography, Ethnic Studies, and Cultural Studies. Maria Holmgren Troy and Elisabeth Wennö are Associate Professors in English Literature at Karlstad University, Sweden
