The world in movement: Performative Identities and diasporas

This book focuses on one of the main issues of our time in the Humanities and Social Sciences as it analyzes the impact of current global migrations on new forms of living together and the formation of identities and homes. Using a transdisciplinary and transcultural approach the contributions shed fresh light upon key concepts such as ‘hybrid-performative diaspora’, ‘transidentities’,‘ hospitality’, ‘belonging’, ‘emotion’, ‘body,’ and ‘desire’. Those concepts are discussed in the context of Cuban, US-American, Maghrebian, Moroccan, Spanish, Catalan, French, Turkish, Jewish, Argentinian, Indian, and Italian literatures, cultures and religions.:Contents Notes on Contributors vii Introduction 1 1 Nomadic Places Cultures and Literatures in Movement ‘Hybrid-Performative-Diasporas’ in the Ibero-American-Maghrebian-Moroccan Literature and Culture: the Case of Najat El Hachmi 13 Alfonso de Toro 2 The Diasporic Identity of the Roma People 75 Marta Segarra 3 Epistemological Difficulties in the Development of Civic Identities in Western Education 88 Zvi Bekerman 4 A Discourse of Resistance: Hybridization of Identity and Textuality in Tedio, by Natalio Ohanna 106 Daniel Blaustein 5 Federalism and Diaspora: the Feeling of Belonging and the Diaspora Identity in the Subnational Level of the Country 115 Mauricio Dimant 6 Jewbans in Miami: a Particular Case of Hybrid- Performative Diaspora 134 Sarah Moldenhauer 7 The “Good Migrants”: Issues of Hospitality and Belonging with regard to Sikhs in Mediterranean Europe 149 Pierre Gottschlich 8 Feelings of Threat as a Problem of Religious Identity within Religiously Diverse Societies 167 Gert Pickel and Alexander Yendell 9 The Problem of Belonging in Nina Bouraoui’s Garçon manqué 180 Annegret Richter 10 Diasporic Topographies of Remembrance in New Autobiographical Sephardic Writing 194 Susanne Ritschel 11 Settling In: Migration and Place in Sema Kılıçkaya’s Le royaume sans racines 205 Annedith Schneider 12 Identity Questions in El diablo de Yudis by Ahmed Daoudi 216 Juliane Tauchnitz 13 Writing in Movement: a Poetics of Undecidability? 229 Abderrahman Tenkoul 14 The Berber Cultural Movement in the Maghreb Contemporary Issues in Transnationalism 238 Moha Ennaji 15 The Mara: a Diaspora Sui Generis? 252 Heidrun Zinecker 16 Towards Modes of Shared Emotion: Revisiting the Iberian Diasporas’ Trauma Through the “Captive’s Tale” (Don Quixote I, 37– 41) 289 Ruth Fin

Ein grenzenloser Albtraum? Boualem Sansals Dystopie ‚2084‘ und ihre mediale Verformung

Der Roman 2084 des algerischen Autors Boualem Sansal hat bereits vor seinem Erscheinen Ende August 2015 für einen wahren medialen Wirbel gesorgt. In meinem skizzenhaften Essai möchte ich die Reaktionen der Presse sowohl in Frankreich als auch in Deutschland nachzeichnen, möchte hier wiederkehrende Themen ausfindig machen und dies mit ersten eigenen Lektüreansätzen verknüpfen, um so die in den Medien vorherrschenden Foci besser prüfen und bewerten zu können. Dabei wird auch eine diachrone Betrachtung der journalistischen Beiträge zum Thema vorgenommen, die die thematischen Wellen, in denen über das dystopische Werk berichtet wurde, berücksichtigt.</p
