The series "QUELLEN UND FORSCHUNGEN ZUR LITERATUR- UND
KULTURGESCHICHTE" (Sources and Research in the History of
Literature and Culture), with a rich tradition stretching back to
1874, is an established feature among the renowned publications for
German Literary Studies. Edited by Ernst Osterkamp and Werner
Roecke at the Humboldt University of Berlin, the series presents
examples of high-quality scholarship examining literary texts in
conjunction with historical cultural phenomena, particularly with
the other arts. There is an explicit demand for literary studies
with a transdisciplinary approach. German literature from the
Middle Ages to the present day forms the main focus of the series.
As the historical cultural thrust of the series includes aspects of
intercultural experience and national perceptions of the other,
Quellen und Forschungen is also open to occasional comparative
studies. The publications of the series include monographs,
doctoral and professorial theses and thematically focused volumes
of collected papers. Works presented for acceptance in the series
are required to display scholarly relevance and excellence in
method and presentation.
This study focuses on various scenes of calligraphy, practices and
conceptualizations of lines, and questions of book aesthetics in
Henri Michaux's pictorial, literary oeuvre. The theoretical horizon
is provided by current approaches to knowledge of the body and
motion, kinesthesia, habitus, body-memory, et al. in anthropology
and the social sciences. In the twofold break with traditional
functions of the graphic line and the notation function of text,
the emphasis here is on writing as a body technique and performance
as well as improvised graphic records. An art of the motoric is
nevertheless encountered in the form of books and generally
combined with texts. Problems of approaching "Western" and Chinese
(text) art are also discussed from a praxeological perspective.
