Best.-Nr. B9780300194609Paperback / softback. New. Thomas Bernhard 1931-1989 a literary figure of international acclaim and arguably Austria's greatest post-World War II writer became the first of his generation to expose unrelentingly his country's pathological denial of complicity in the Holocaust. Bernhard's writings and indeed his own biography reflect Austria's fraught efforts to define itself as a nation following the collapse of the Habsburg monarchy and the trauma of World War II. Repeatedly he scandalized the nation with novels plays and public statements that exposed the convoluted ways Austrians were attempting to come to terms with their Nazi past-or defiantly avoiding doing so. This book the first comprehensive biography of Thomas Bernhard in English examines his life and work and their intricate relationship to Austria's geographical political and cultural transformations in the twentieth century. While Bernhard was the scourge of his native culture Honegger explains he was also a product of that same culture. Appreciation of his controversial impact on his society is possible only through an understanding of the contradictions the shame and the achievements that mark Austrians' self-perception in the postwar years. Honegger shows that for Bernhard the theater was not only a profession but also a paradigm for his life and that performance was the primary force animating his writing and self-construction. Even after his death Bernhard's carefully constructed biography continues to fascinate shock and expose the Austrian culture at large. paperback

Issued without a dust jacket. -- This scholarly study provides a rigorous historical and generic analysis of the "animal poem" in the English vernacular tracing its development from the early Middle Ages to the 14th century. Honegger organises the vast corpus of medieval animal literature into three distinct evolutionary branches: the Physiologus Tradition the Bird Poems debate poetry and the Beast Fable and Epic. The narrative begins with the Old English Phoenix and the religious encyclopaedias of the Physiologus where animals served as static didactic ciphers for Christian truths. The analysis then moves into the more sophisticated Middle English "debate" genre offering a comparative study of the various Nightingale poems - specifically their encounters with the Owl the Thrush and the Cuckoo - before culminating in the courtly irony of Chaucer's Parlement of Foulys. In these texts Honegger argues that the animal shifts from a divine symbol to a mouthpiece for human social and philosophical conflict. The study reaches its conclusion by examining the Beast Epic tradition notably The Vox and the Wolf and the Nun's Priest's Tale where characters like Chaunticleer represent the pinnacle of medieval animal characterisation. By synthesizing these three traditions into a final "Integrated Overview" Honegger demonstrates how the animal figure evolved from a tool of moral instruction into a vehicle for sophisticated satire and human self-reflection. This volume remains an essential reference for researchers in Middle English philology beast fables and the historical development of animal studies. -- Table of Contents: I. Introduction 1.
