Описание: Examensarbeit aus dem Jahr 2005 im Fachbereich Anglistik - Literatur, Note: 2,0, Eberhard-Karls-Universitдt Tьbingen (Seminar fьr Englische Philologie), Veranstaltung: Zulassungsarbeit Staatsexamen (Lehramt Gymnasien), Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: The notion that the colonial experiences at the Heart of Africa a void which would seem to penetrate every level of existence, from the biological to the metaphysical, is hardly foreign to him [Coetzee]. (Watson 1986: 371) Um diese koloniale Erfahrung, die den Kolonisatoren und den Kolonisierten durch und durch durchdringen, sowohl psychisch als auch physisch, geht es in J.M. Coetzees Romanen. In den drei zu besprechenden Romanen Coetzees Waiting for the Barbarians, Foe und Disgrace zeigt sich, dass sich die Kolonialismuspolitik und die damit einhergehende, implizite Kritik sich gleich einem roten Faden durch seine Fiktion zieht. Coetzee ist "a white South African writer engaged with the legacy of colonialism" (Head 1997: iii). In seinen Romanen bezieht Coetzee zwar keine explizite Stellung zur sьdafrikanischen Situation oder zur weltweiten postkolonialen Situation, aber trotz seiner apolitischen Haltung kцnnen die Texte als Deutungen des Kolonialismus gelesen werden, die dadurch weitreichender sind als die herkцmmlichen Stellungnahmen politisch engagierter Schriftsteller. So ist bei Coetzee "the actual critique of colonialism [...] hardly conventional" (Watson 1986: 371). Ziel der Arbeit ist, den Kompromiss im Grauen und die Differenzierung der Kolonialismus-kritik in J.M. Coetzees Romanen Waiting for the Barbarians (1980), Foe (1986) und Disgrace (1999) aufzuzeigen. Hierbei soll wie folgt vorgegangen werden. I. bis IV. bilden den theoretischen Teil als thematischen Kontext der Romane. (...)

Описание: Since the controversy and acclaim that surrounded the publication of Disgrace (1999), the awarding of the Nobel Prize for literature and the publication of Elizabeth Costello: Eight Lessons (both in 2003), J. M. Coetzee’s status has begun to steadily rise to the point where he has now outgrown the specialized domain of South African literature. Today he is recognized more simply as one of the most important writers in the English language from the late 20th and early 21st century. Coetzee’s productivity and invention has not slowed with old age. The Childhood of Jesus, published in 2013, like Elizabeth Costello, was met with a puzzled reception, as critics struggled to come to terms with its odd setting and structure, its seemingly flat tone, and the strange affectless interactions of its characters. Most puzzling was the central character, David, linked by the title to an idea of Jesus. J.M. Coetzee’s The Childhood of Jesus: The Ethics of Ideas and Things is at the forefront of an exciting process of critical engagement with this novel, which has begun to uncover its rich dialogue with philosophy, theology, mathematics, politics, and questions of meaning.

Описание: After crossing oceans, a man and a boy arrive in a new land. Here they are each assigned a name and an age, and held in a camp in the desert while they learn Spanish, the language of their new country. As Simon and David they make their way to the relocation centre in the city of Novilla, where officialdom treats them politely but not necessarily helpfully.
Simon finds a job in a grain wharf. The work is unfamiliar and backbreaking, but he soon warms to his stevedore comrades, who during breaks conduct philosophical dialogues on the dignity of labour, and generally take him to their hearts. Now he must set about his task of locating the boy's mother.
Though like everyone else who arrives in this new country he seems to be washed clean of all traces of memory, he is convinced he will know her when he sees her. And indeed, while walking with the boy in the countryside Simon catches sight of a woman he is certain is the mother, and persuades her to assume the role. David's new mother comes to realise that he is an exceptional child, a bright, dreamy boy with highly unusual ideas about the world.
But the school authorities detect a rebellious streak in him and insist he be sent to a special school far away. His mother refuses to yield him up, and it is Simon who must drive the car as the trio flees across the mountains. The Childhood of Jesus" is a profound, beautiful and continually surprising novel from a very great writer.
