The first generation of Russian modernists experienced a profound sense of anxiety resulting from the belief that they were living in an age of decline. What made them unique was their utopian prescription for overcoming the inevitability of decline and death both by metaphysical and physical means. They intertwined their mystical erotic discourse with European degeneration theory and its obsession with the destabilization of gender. In Erotic Utopia, Olga Matich suggests that same-sex desire underlay their most radical utopian proposal of abolishing the traditional procreative family in favor of erotically induced abstinence.2006 Winner, CHOICE Award for Outstanding Academic Titles, Current Reviews for Academic Libraries Honorable Mention, Aldo and Jean Scaglione Prize for Studies in Slavic Languages and Literatures, Modern Language Association"Offers a fresh perspective and a wealth of new information on early Russian modernism. . . . It is required reading for anyone interested in fin-de-siècle Russia and in the history of sexuality in general."--Bernice Glatzer Rosenthal, Slavic and East European Journal "Thoroughly entertaining."--Avril Pyman, Slavic Review

We generally suppose that it is our right to freedom that allows us to make the choices that shape our lives. The right to have an abortion is called "freedom of choice" because, it is said, a woman should be free to choose between giving birth and not doing so. Freedom of speech protects us whether we want to salute the flag or burn it. There is a correlative principle: one choice is as good as another. Freedom is not a right that makes moral judgments. It lets us do what we want. John Garvey disputes both propositions. We should understand freedom, he maintains, as a right to act, not a right to choose; and furthermore, we should view freedom as a right to engage in actions that are good and valuable. This may seem obvious, but it inverts a central principle of liberalism - the idea that the right is prior to the good. Thus friendship is a good thing; and one reason the Constitution protects freedom of association is that it gives us the space to form friendships. This book casts doubt on the idea that freedoms are bilateral rights that allow us to make contradictory choices: to speak or remain silent, to believe in God or to disbelieve, to abort or to give birth to a child. Garvey argues that the goodness of childbearing does not entail the goodness of abortion; and if freedom follows from the good, then freedom to do the first does not entail freedom to do the second. Each action must have its own justification. Garvey holds that if the law is to protect freedoms it is permissible - indeed, it is necessary - to make judgments about the goodness and badness of actions.

Zwischen 1933 und 1945 dokumentierten zahlreiche Geflüchtete ihre Erfahrungen mit dem NS-Regime, um die (Welt)-Öffentlichkeit über dessen Verbrechen aufzuklären. Mittels rhetorischer und narrativer Verfahren und dem gattungsspezifischen Referenzversprechen implizieren diese Texte eine komplizitäre Rezeptionshaltung, die konstitutiv für ihre Poetik ist. Die vorliegende Studie bringt auf innovative Weise Ansätze aus der Exilforschung, der internationalen Autobiographie- und Life Writing-Forschung sowie der literaturwissenschaftlichen Pragmatik zusammen. Dabei entwickelt sie das Konzept der ¿Komplizenschaft¿ als eine rezeptionsästhetische Analysekategorie, die den komplexen und weitaus unterschätzten Poetiken der testimonialen Exilautobiographik Rechnung trägt. In eingehenden Fallstudien werden Autobiographien von Stefan Zweig, Sebastian Haffner und Catherine Klein untersucht.

Die Auswirkungen der Insolvenz konzernverbundener Unternehmen auf das zugrundeliegende Konzernverhältnis und auf eine etwaige steuerliche Organschaft sind bis auf den heutigen Tag ungeklärt. Zur Lösung dieses Problems verfolgt Lara Schwarz einen rechtsgebietsübergreifenden Ansatz, der das Konzern-, Steuer- und Insolvenzrecht miteinander harmonisiert. Lara Schwarz zeigt auf, dass die bislang angestellten Überlegungen in der rechtsgebietsübergreifenden Gesamtschau zu widersprüchlichen Ergebnissen führen und zu einem zu späten Zeitpunkt ansetzen: Sie knüpfen für die Frage, ob ein Konzernverhältnis aufgelöst ist, an den Zeitpunkt der Eröffnung des Insolvenzverfahrens an. In der steuerlichen Organschaft dreht sich die Diskussion um den Zeitpunkt der Bestellung eines vorläufigen Insolvenzverwalters. Die Frage, ob ein Konzern weiterbetrieben werden darf und ob die Organschaft endet, stellt sich jedoch bereits im Stadium bloßer Insolvenzreife, spätestens ab Verletzung der Insolvenzantragspflicht.

from the author: The book is putting my current life in perspective beginning with Covid/Trump/Ukraine war times, looking back through relationships in my life, then forward in metaphysical/philosophical ways to my inevitable end, a sort of dance with death. Full Moon Midnight means it's late and time is running out but there's still light and an awesome beauty in the cycle of life."There is a rare delicacy, a fragility, a soft tenderness in the poemsof Belinda Subraman's FULL MOON MIDNIGHT that is seldomseen in a book of verse. Each poem is a translucent pale yellowpetal on a Texas rainbow cactus flower. But don't be fooled. Belinda Subraman's poems are also lightning and thunder, a storm of words filled with suffering, ecstasy, and release. FULL MOON MIDNIGHT faces the brutal and the mundane and transmutes all the pain into a new book of revelation. FULL MOON MIDNIGHT is an unanticipated but so welcome master work from the brilliant Belinda Subraman."-Ron Whitehead, U.S. National Lifetime Beat Poet Laureate"In this new collection of poems, you can sense how Belinda has evolved and conquered an even more powerful expression. At times her poems are like paintings or photos. Other poems give life to her skills of playing with words, playing with rhythm and rhymes in a skillful manner, yet constantly with something urgent to tell the reader. Some poems are timeless while others delve into the present with its dark and foreboding clouds of war and massmurder. Others are very personal and intense where time and decay have their say. Her poems can be about being alone in the woods as a small child or about a bitter mother being hard on her. But there is no bitterness here, the joy of nature shines through. Although death, as it should, plays its part."-Bengt O Björklund, Swedish Lifetime Beat Poet Laureate"Reading FULL MOON MIDNIGHT by Belinda Subraman is like going on a vast, exciting journey through everything, each topic fully explored by an observant, discerning poet seeking deeper awareness, deeper consciousness, better answers. No subject is left out in this wide-ranging collection. We find insomnia, writer's block, war, mass shooters, activism, abusive mothers, false religion, the earth, meditation, zen, science, death, loss, eternity. Subraman is activist, lover, daughter, wife, historian, aesthetic observer/philosopher. Each poem is a pearl, finely created as in this excerpt from one of my many favorites, Infinite Mollusk: "A chambered nautilus/breathing water/exhibits mastery of life/tentacles sensing/fingers in the waves/pointing nowhere//everywhere//the inclusive mind/is love in action//the mind creates the abyss/the heart crosses it." And again in The Answer: " I see it now in everything I do -/A hazy hint of enlightenment -/In my handwriting, my painting,/The fizzy vibrations -/Atoms dancing infinitely/In the all encompassing unnameable bliss." I am so impressed with this beautiful work by a poet dedicated to words, knowledge, deep understanding. This is the kind of book that makes me realize how much I love poetry. I found myself reading each poem again and again, hoping that, with the poet, I would find some answers. What better experience from a book of poems?" -Susan Ward Mickelberry, author of And Blackberries Grew Wild

"The Poetics of Aristotle" by Aristotle, an ancient Greek philosopher, is a seminal work in the realm of literary theory and aesthetics. Written around 335 BCE, this treatise offers profound insights into the nature and principles of poetry and drama. Aristotle explores the concept of mimesis, asserting that art imitates life. He delves into the cathartic effect of tragedy, suggesting that it purges emotions like pity and fear from the audience. He dissects the essential elements of a compelling narrative, emphasizing plot structure with a well-defined beginning, middle, and end. Aristotle's discussion of character is central to "The Poetics." He introduces the notion of a tragic flaw, or hamartia, which leads to a character's downfall. His analysis of language, diction, rhythm, and melody underscores their significance in poetic works. "The Poetics" is particularly renowned for its examination of tragedy. Aristotle outlines key elements, including peripeteia (a reversal of fortune) and anagnorisis (a moment of recognition), which are fundamental to tragic storytelling. This work's enduring impact on literature, theater, and aesthetics is undeniable. It has served as a foundational text for generations of writers, playwrights, and scholars, providing invaluable guidance in the craft of storytelling and dramatic performance.

Rabindranath Tagore (1861-1941) represented an ideational universe in which universal humanism was one of the most significant pillars. In conventional terms, Tagore is conceived as a poet which is, in reality, a partial description of the role he discharged in favour of his distinct politico-ideological priorities. He was a visionary who always privileged humanity above all. 'That Treasured Port': Rabindranath Tagore's Ideational Challenges demonstrates how a perusal of his enormous oeuvre reveals that while expressing his preference for a poetic voice, he also articulated his particular mode of thinking which was attuned not only to the contemporary context but much beyond. His views were thus transcendental since he dealt with issues which are useful to safeguard humanity, regardless of class, colour and creed. What deserves attention is his ability to understand the prevailing socio-economic and politico-cultural reality from the point of a distinct perception which was based on both-Western as well as indigenous discourses. Tagore evolved his conceptual parameters not merely on the basis of India's intellectual wisdom but also on the basis of the ideas he derived from the Enlightenment values; this reinforces the argument that the bard was open to multiple politico-ideological influences which, he found, were pivotal to the process of conceptualizing a collective well-being. One must not however forget that Tagore was not alone in his pursuit; it was complemented by his equally sensitive colleagues such as Gandhi, Ambedkar, among others.
