About this book

Der vorliegende dreisprachige Band konzentriert sich auf Akte des transgressiven Handelns/Schreibens in ausgewählten Texten europäischer Literaturen, deren Autoren sich durch Geschlecht, Nationalität und Zeitrahmen unterscheiden. So berücksichtigen die hier gesammelten Beiträge eine doppelte Fragestellung: nach der Differenz und Überschreitung von Normen. Beide Begriffe werden zueinander in Beziehung gesetzt, um jeglichen Übergang in kulturell-sozial-historische Kontexte einbetten zu können. Die in chronologischer Reihenfolge präsentierten Analysen und Interpretationen von ausgewählten Texten deutscher, französischer, polnischer, russischer sowie antiker Literatur zeigen exemplarische Akte der Transgression in verschiedenen Kulturen und unter sich verändernden Zeitumständen und dokumentieren ästhetische Versuche, die bestehende Ordnung zu revidieren und eine neue zu schaffen.This trilingual volume focuses on acts of transgressive acting/writing in selected texts of European literatures whose authors differ in gender, nationality and time frame. Thus, the contributions collected here consider a double questioning: of difference and transgression of norms. Both concepts are set in relation to each other in order to be able to embed any transition in cultural-social-historical contexts. The analyses and interpretations of selected texts from German, French, Polish, Russian and ancient literature, presented in chronological order, show exemplary acts of transgression in different cultures and under changing time circumstances and document aesthetic attempts to revise the existing order and create a new one.
