Book Description
Since the 1990s, following the end of postmodernism, literary theory has lost much of its dynamics. This book aims at revitalising literary theory exploring two of its historical bases: German poetics and aesthetics. Beginning in the 1770s and ending in the 1950s, the book examines nearly 200 years of this history, thereby providing the reader with a first history of poetics as well as with bibliographies of the subject. Particular attention is paid to the aesthetics and poetics of popular philosophy, of the Hegel-school, empirical and psychological tendencies in the field since the 1860s, the first steps towards a plurality of methods (1890-1930), theoretical confrontations during the Nazi-period as well as the rise of formalist and anthropological approaches from the 1930s onwards. All approaches are evaluated regarding their relevance for academia as well as for the general history of education. If possible, international references and contexts of the relevant theories are taken into account. In sum, the analysis not only shows how differentiated historical accounts in the field were but also reflects how current literary theory could move forward through the rediscovery of sunken ideas.

Book Description
Despite its unabated popularity with audiences, slapstick has received rather little scholarly attention, mostly by scholars concentrating on the US theater and cinema traditions. Nonetheless, as a form of physical humor slapstick has a long history across various areas of cultural production. This volume approaches slapstick both as a genre of situational physical comedy and as a mode of communicating an affective situation captured in various cultural products. Contributors to the volume examine cinematic, literary, dramatic, musical, and photographic texts and performances. From medieval chivalric romance and nineteenth-century theater to contemporary photography, the contributors study treatments of slapstick across media, periods and geographic locations. The aim of a study of such wide scope is to demonstrate how slapstick emerged from a variety of complex interactions among different traditions and by extension, to illustrate that slapstick can be highly productive for interdisciplinary research.

Book Description
André F. Nebe uses his humour structure analysis to make viewers' preferences and corresponding audiovisual offerings in films visible. Complex and multi-layered audiovisual (hypotactic) humour is used in the more successful films, while less successful films make simple (paratactic) humour offerings. The humour structure analysis offers insights into promising humour offerings and can also be used in the story development phase for writers, directors, producers and dramaturges.

Book Description
Die Sache der Aufklärung meinen wir zu kennen – die Aufklärer forderten Gedankenfreiheit, Selbstbestimmung, eine Lebensführung nach Maßgabe der Vernunft und bürgerliche Rechte. Weniger bekannt sind die konkreten Sachen, für die sich das 18. Jahrhundert interessierte: Dinge des Alltags, die materiale Dimension von Erkenntnis, Kultur und Kritik, Laboreinrichtungen, Handelswaren und Kunstobjekte. Der vorliegende Band geht dem Zusammenhang ebenso wie der Spannung zwischen der »Sache der Aufklärung«, d. h. ihrem überhistorischen programmatischen Kern bzw. ihren normativen Zielvorstellungen, und den »Sachen der Aufklärung« nach. Zur Debatte stehen sowohl die causae, welche die Aufklärung vor ihren Gerichtshof bringt, als auch die res, die das rhetorische System als Gegenstand der Rede und der Künste definiert, sowohl die Medien der Kommunikation und Überlieferung als auch das erkenntnistheoretische Verhältnis von Verstand und Sinnlichkeit. Der Band dokumentiert exemplarisch die große Jahrestagung der Deutschen Gesellschaft für die Erforschung des 18. Jahrhunderts, die 2010 vom Interdisziplinären Zentrum für die Erforschung der Europäischen Aufklärung der Martin-Luther-Universität Halle-Wittenberg in Kooperation mit dem Landesforschungsschwerpunkt »Aufklärung – Religion – Wissen« sowie den Franckeschen Stiftungen zu Halle ausgerichtet wurde.
