What takes precedence is a buried site that is at once underworld and unconscious; and the descent to that natural origin proves at the same time to have been a descent through the literary tradition. From the origins of this tradition the poet is also estranged by the mediation of intervening poets, especially Goethe, Novalis, and Holderlin, to whom Peucker devotes a first chapter. This and the ensuing four chapters argue that what lyric descent in this tradition always encounters and fails to transmute is the organicism of Goethe. Joseph von Eichendorff subtly criticizes Novalis for having failed to rid himself of Goethe's influence by having merely inverted its terms, but Eichendorffs preoccupation with "voices in the ground" shows that he continues to wrestle with the same alternatives. Identifying myths of transcendence with the male literary tradition, Annette von Droste~Hiilshoff turns back to the world of natural process, discovering a daemonic figure of her poetic self in that world, only to find Goethe there before her. Holderlin's revisionary view of Goethe as an emblem both of ascent and descent~as patriarch and child of nature~becomes exemplary for modern poets, so much so that he rather than Goethe becomes the chief ancestral rival of Rainer Maria Rilke and Georg Trakl, Especially in the Sonnets to Orpheus, Rilke identifies the subterranean voice of Orpheus~Holderlin with Goethean organicism and celebrates writing by contrast as a medium detached from all originary determinacies. Trakl understands the language of lyric to be overburdened with accumulated meanings, and empties it of its content in order to recover a "pure language" ~a nonreferential state of nature which then becomes, ironically, still another version of organic immediacy.…

Paperback or Softback. Condition: New. The Material Image: Art and the Real in Film. Book.

Condition: New.

Paperback. Condition: New. Focusing on intermediality, The Material Image situates film within questions of representation familiar from the other arts: What is meant by figuring the real? How is the real suggested by visual metaphors, and what is its relation to illusion? How is the spectator figured as entering the text, and how does the image enter our world? The film's spectator is integral to these concerns. Cognitive and phenomenological approaches to perception alike claim that spectatorial affect is "real" even when it is film that produces it. Central to the staging of intermediality in film, tableaux moments in film also figure prominently in the book. Films by Scorsese, Greenaway, Wenders, and Kubrick are seen to address painterly, photographic, and digital images in relation to effects of the real. Hitchcock's films are examined with regard to modernist and realist effects in painting. Chapters on Fassbinder and Haneke analyze the significance of tableau for the body in pain, while a final chapter on horror film explores the literalism of psychopathic tableau. Here, too, art and the body-images and the real-are juxtaposed and entwined in a set of relations.…
