Refuge and Reality: Feuchtwanger and the European Émigrés in California: German Monitor, cartea 61

Editat de Pól O'Dochartaigh, Alexander Stephan
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 dec 2004
This volume brings together papers by scholars from Germany, the USA, France, England and Ireland given at the first International Feuchtwanger Conference, held in Los Angeles in 2003. Some of Lion Feuchtwanger’s novels from his exile in the United States are analyzed here, as are the lives of Lion and Marta Feuchtwanger and their contacts in the German émigré world in California. In addition, two papers focus on aspects of Bertolt Brecht’s and Alfred Döblin’s lives as emigrants in California. This volume is of interest to students of exile studies, of German refuge in the USA and of modern German literature.

Recenzii

"Ian Wallace and Pól O’Dochartaigh are to be congratulated on trying to ensure that Feuchtwanger will at last be awarded the critical attention that his extensive exile work deserves." - in: Modern Language Review, Vol. 101, No. 3 (2006)
"All of the essays are well-written and thought-provoking, yet the greatest strenghth of this collection lies in its presentation and discussion of a large variety of formerly unpublished documents which may well contribute to a more differentiated view of the German émigré community in Southern California." - in: Archiv für das Studium der neueren Sprachen und Literaturen, Band 243, 2. Halbjahresband (2006)
"…eine begrüßenswerte Initiative und ein vielversprechender Anfang für die Lion-Feuchtwanger-Gesellschaft." - in: Germanistik, Band 46, Heft 3-4 (2005)
