Israeli military fiction: a narrative in transformationRubinstein, Keren Tova Unknown Date (has links) (PDF)
The current study investigates changing attitudes to militarism within Israeli society since the tumultuous decades following 1948. Events leading to the current state of Israeli society will be traced in order to illustrate the way in which change occurs. The shifts in Israeli history and society during these decades will be examined alongside developments in Israeli literature. Accordingly, eight works of fiction have been selected to lie at the heart of the study. These works, all of which centre around the Israeli military experience, convey an erosion of personal, national, and ideological certainties. The analysis of these works demands three areas of exploration: the depiction of the soldier in the civilian setting, the depiction of the soldier as he interacts with other soldiers in the military sphere, and ‘post-Zionist’ military fiction produced in recent decades. These three areas of exploration entail an interrogation of gender, nationalism, and ‘post-Zionism’ in contemporary Israel. The works examined in the third chapter contain commentary not only upon the social reality of their authors, but also upon the way in which Israeli literature engages with the issues that inform its existence.

Die Weimarer Jahre und Weimars Ende in den frühen Romanen von Victoria WolffWenzel, Telse 18 October 2021 (has links)
Frauen*studium, Wirtschaftskrise, die Welt der Angestellten, der Topos der „Neuen Frau“ Weimars: Das sind einige der Themen von Victoria Wolffs ersten beiden Romanen – „Mädchen wohin?“ (1932) und „Eine Frau hat Mut“ (1933). „Gast in der Heimat“ (1935) und „Die Welt ist blau“ (1933) reagieren dann auf das Erstarken des Faschismus' und die Errichtung des NS-Regimes: „Gast in der Heimat“ schildert diese Zeit aus dem Blickwinkel einer deutsch-jüdischen Familie aus dem gehobenen Bürgertum, der Roman „Die Welt ist blau“ formuliert als Reaktion auf den moralischen Sinkflug in Deutschland auf einer seiner Ebenen Gegenentwürfe zum faschistischen Frauen*- und Gesellschaftsideal.
Ich möchte danach fragen, welche Interpretationen, Gedanken, Positionen die Texte bei ihrem Blick auf die damalige Gegenwart formulieren – und mit welchen literarischen Mitteln sie das jeweils tun. / Studying women*, economic crisis, the world of employees, the topos of Weimar's „New Woman“: These are some of the themes of Victoria Wolff's first two novels – „Mädchen wohin?” („Girl, Where are You Heading to?“) (1932) and „Eine Frau hat Mut” („A Woman Of Courage“) (1933). „Gast in der Heimat” („A Guest in the Homeland“) (1935) and „Die Welt ist blau” („The World is Blue”) (1933) respond to the rise of fascism, as well as the establishment of the Nazi regime: „Gast in der Heimat” („A Guest in the Homeland“) describes this time from the perspective of a German-Jewish family from the upper middle class, while the novel „Die Welt ist blau” („The World is Blue”) formulates, on one of its levels, alternative drafts to the fascist ideal of women* and society as a replica to the moral decline in germany.
I would like to ask the following questions: What interpretations, thoughts and positions do the novels formulate in their view of the present? And what literary means do they use to do it in each case?
