The volume examines from a comparative perspective the phenomenon
of aesthetic disruption within the various arts in contemporary
culture. It assumes that the political potential of contemporary
art is not solely derived from presenting its audiences with openly
political content, but rather from creating a space of perception
and interaction using formal means: a space that makes hegemonic
structures of action and communication observable, thus
problematizing their self-evidence. The contributions conceptualize
historical and contemporary politics of form in the media, which
aim to be more than mere shock strategies, which are concerned not
just with the 'narcissistic' exhibition of art as art, but also
with the creation of a new common horizon of experience. They
combine the analysis of paradigmatic works, procedures and actions
with reference to theoretical debates in the fields of literature,
media and art of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. The
essay-collection shows how textual, visual, auditive or
performative strategies disclose their own ways of functioning,
intervene in automated processes of reception and thus work on
stimulating a sense of political possibilities. The editors
acknowledge support from the European Union's Seventh Framework
Program (FP 7/ 2007-2013), ERC grant agreement no. 312454.
Nicht nur die Zeit des Menschen, auch die Eigenzeiten der Literatur
stehen heute in einem vielschichtigen Spannungsverhältnis zur Zeit
der Natur. Doch welche Mittel besitzt die Literatur, um die
menschliche Wahrnehmungsfähigkeit für die Zeiten anderer
Lebewesen oder gar für planetarische Zeitmaße zu sensibilisieren?
Wie geht die zunehmende Mathematisierung der Zeit in sie ein? Und
in welchem Verhältnis stehen literaturhistorische Zäsuren zu
Paradigmenwechseln in den Naturwissenschaften? Diesen und weiteren
Fragen geht der Sammelband nach, indem er exemplarisch die
Genealogie der literarischen Verzeitlichung von Natur nachvollzieht
– von den kosmischen Fiktionen um 1800 bis zu den Geschichten vom
Anthropo-, Cthulhu- und Kapitalozän, die das 21. Jahrhundert
prägen.
