Address

Was Jorge Luis Borges 1939 in "Pierre Menard, Autor des Quijote" noch imaginierte, ist inzwischen aus der Literatur nicht mehr wegzudenken: Seit den 1950er Jahren, insbesondere in den letzten Jahren, entstehen zunehmend Bücher, für die keine neuen, eigenen Texte mehr produziert werden. Statt dessen werden bereits existierende Texte und gar ganze Bücher re-ediert, das heißt: wiederaufgelegt, aktualisiert, kopiert, neu geordnet, zensiert etc. Im Fall der Appropriation literarischer Werke, der im Workshop besondere Beachtung geschenkt werden soll, werden mit Vorliebe kanonische Texte appropriiert, etwa von Flaubert, Hemingway, Joyce, Mallarmé, Milton, Poe, Puschkin, Shakespeare.

Im Gegensatz zur appropriation art in den 1980er Jahren und zu jüngsten literarischen Plagiatsskandalen hat dies bisher jedoch weder zu stürmischen Erregungen im Kunst- und Literaturbetrieb noch zu einer tiefer gehenden Beachtung in der Wissenschaft geführt. Der Workshop soll das Phänomen erfassen und einen ersten Überblick über seine Bandbreite in historischer, systematischer und komparatistischer Sicht geben.

Mit einer musikalischen Lesung von Michalis Pichler & Rembetiko Kompania Berlin und Beiträgen u.a. von Anne Mœglin-Delcroix (Paris), Michael Glasmeier (Bremen), Stefan Römer (Berlin).

speakers:

Rod Dickinson, a visual artist who uses detailed research into moments of the past and present that represent various mechanisms of social control. Rod will draw on his experience to discuss strategies and methods of re-enactment.

The Performance Re-enactment Society who will present a slide show of their work in progress narrative for Salad Dressing, the cover of Crackers.

By now the appropriation and paraphrasing of Ed Ruscha constitutes a genre of its own.

Custom having once given the name of " the ancients " to our pre-Christian ancestors, we will not throw it up against them that, in comparison with us experienced people, they ought properly to be called children, but will rather continue to honor them as our good old fathers.
