Abstract:
How does patriotism shape societies? What might it look like if patriotism were aligned with care rather than violence? In this article, I analyze Dutch-Swiss author Isabelle de Charrière’s novel Trois femmes (1797) through the lens of care ethics, particularly Sarah Clark Miller’s notion of a “duty to care.” Charrière’s novel examines the limits of Enlightenment theories of moralism (especially Kantian morality and duty) by putting theory into practice with a group of three women: a former French aristocrat, a wealthy mixed-race Creole woman, and an Alsatian servant. The three women live together as immigrants in Germany after fleeing France in the aftermath of the French Revolution, and they are bound together by a shared love of country. I propose that Charrière blends patriotism and care in radical ways that break down hierarchies of gender, race, and class and that belie the fiction of equality promised by the French Revolution.

Abstract:
Abstract In the second and third parts of Dichtung und Wahrheit (From My Life: Poetry and Truth), Johann Wolfgang von Goethe portrays his liaison with Friederike Brion, a daughter of a pastor in the Alsatian town Sesenheim (as spelled in Goethe’s writing, actually: Sessenheim). Although the text was published 40 years after the events, and even though Goethe’s depiction is noticeably fictional, enthusiastic readers subsequently travelled to the real venues of the narrative in order to search for hidden traces of the love affair. In fact, the unclear status of truthfulness and accuracy of the narrative, as well as the distance in time, seem to have further stimulated the readers in their endeavor. This cultural tourism results in autobiographical (August Ferdinand Näke), fictional (Ludwig Tieck), and auto-fictional (Johann Christoph Freieisen) travel stories. In these texts, as this article will show, past events are not only uncovered and examined for conservatory purposes. Additionally, for one, the performative reenactment and literary adaption of Goethe’s idealistic and idyllic love story serves to preserve and uphold a certain image of the writer in these texts and to defend this image against alternative reception perspectives. For another, these appropriations of Goethe’s biographical episode articulate distinct and new concepts of individuality and identity. These texts of the so-called “Friederiken-Literatur” (‘Friederike Literature’) have significantly shaped the perception of Goethe’s text ever since.

Abstract The paper presents the current distribution of Orobanche alsatica in Poland, based on a critical revision of her­barium and literature data and on my field studies conducted in 2006-2011. The recorded localities are mainly in Polish Uplands: the Lublin Upland (Wyżyna Lubelska), Roztocze, and Polesie, less frequently in the Małopolska Upland (Wyżyna Małopolska) and Silesia-Kraków Upland (Wyżyna Śląsko-Krakowska). Distribution maps of O. alsatica and other species of the series Alsaticae (O. bartlingii and O. mayeri) in Poland are included. Their taxonomy, biology, ecology, and habitat pref­erences are also discussed.

Abstract Inmitten der nationalistischen ,,Kämpfe um den Rhein“ der 1920er Jahre bezeichnete Hermann Wendel 1927 den Fluss als eine Brücke zwischen den Ländern, durch die das Übernationale an seinen Ufern Wirklichkeit geworden sei. Die ,Formulierungschance‘ Wendels findet sich in einem spezifischen Kontext, der in die Zeit vor 1914 zurückführt: Wendel war Mitglied der 1901 in Straßburg gegründeten Gruppe ,,Das jüngste Elsaß“. Die Diskussionen der Nachkriegsjahre um das deutsch-französische Verhältnis wurden hier bereits zwei Jahrzehnte früher im Zusammenhang mit der sogenannten elsässischen Frage geführt. Um Frankreich und Deutschland einander anzunähern, propagierten die Gruppenmitglieder in ihren Texten ein übernationales Denken, für das sie das Rhein-Brücken-Motiv wiederholt einsetzten.In the midst of the nationalist ,,struggles around the Rhine“ of the 1920s, Hermann Wendel in 1927 described the river as a bridge between the countries through which the supranational had become a reality on its banks. Wendel’s ,formulation chance‘ is found in a specific context that leads back to the time before 1914: Wendel was a member of the group ,,Das jüngste Elsaß“ founded in Straßburg in 1901. Here, the discussions of the post-war years about the Franco-German relations had already been held two decades earlier in connection with the so-called Alsatian question. In order to bring France and Germany closer together, the group members propagated supranational thinking in their texts, for which they repeatedly used the motif of the Rhine as a bridge.

Abstract:
On October 17, 2017 the conference “An Alsatian Intellectual in Enlightenment Russia: L.G. Nikolay, Strasbourg President of the Russian Academy of Sciences” happened. Materials of the conference, with the addition of other essays and documents, formed the basis of the book under review (published under the editorship of Sorbonne Professor Rodolphe Baudin and Senior Researcher of IWL RAS Alexandra Veselova). The book’s authors are well-known scientists from France, Russia, Germany and Switzerland. Baron Ludwig Heinrich von Nikolay (1737–1820; in Russia he was called Andrey Lvovich) played a prominent role in Russian social and cultural life at the end of the 18th century. Nicolay came from the intellectual milieu of Strasbourg, which became a subject of research in the essays included the book by R. Baudin, D. Ryusk and V. Berelovich. From 1769 he was in Russia, where he was entrusted with the position of mentor to the heir to the throne, Pavel Petrovich. In 1798, Nikolay was appointed president of the Russian Academy of Sciences; N. Prokhorenko’s essay is devoted to his productive activity in this post. Thanks to his personal qualities, Nicholas managed to stay at court after the coup on March 12, 1801 and ingratiate himself with Alexander I; in 1803 he left the service. A number of materials of the reviewed work are devoted to the literary work of Nikolay, a prolific and versatile poet (articles by M. Arens and A. Ananyeva). For posterity, the name Nikolay is associated primarily with the famous estate of Mon Repos in Vyborg, which he acquired in 1788, to which he dedicated a poem in 1804, probably his best work (article by Yu. Moshnik and M. Efimov). The book also pays attention to Nikolay as a character in historiographical essays and fiction (articles by A. Veselova and M. Efimov). Attached are five unpublished letters from Nicolai; their addressees are the diplomat and lawyer F.A. Annenberg and the poet and scientist K. Pfeffel. The book is provided with a chronology of Nicolai’s life and work and brief annotations of articles (in French and Russian).

Lorber, Julia Elfriede. "The 'internal exotic' : a postcolonial re-reading of nineteenth-century Alsatian and Corsican literature in French." Thesis, University of St Andrews, 2013. http://hdl.handle.net/10023/3744.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis examines nineteenth-century French literature about the peripheral regions of Alsace and Corsica, observing the discursive process of their incorporation into the imagined French landscape. Firstly, approaching literature from a postcolonial angle, this thesis shows how Alsace and Corsica were represented as exotic by contemporary canonical writers. ‘Internal exoticism' helped conceptualise these regions as different from the French self, while justifying their rule by France. It also investigates how nineteenth-century Parisian authors envisaged Alsace's and Corsica's transition from ‘otherness' to ‘Frenchness.' Secondly, this research reveals long-forgotten regional authors, who endeavoured to write about their provinces in French for the first time. It analyses the influence of Parisian literary figures on these authors, showing whether they were imitating or responding to canonical representations. This process reveals regional writers' tendencies to ‘auto-exoticise', seeing their provinces through the eyes of the centre. Finally, this analysis shows how French nation-building was interlinked with France's larger imperial project, suggesting that peripheral provinces were often perceived through the same conceptual framework as overseas colonies. This thesis contributes to the field of French studies by unearthing unknown authors, and by applying a new theoretical framework, drawing on literary, political and socio-cultural approaches, to the study of France.

Abstract:
Ernst Stadler was a German expressionist poet, best known for his 1914 collection Der Aufbruch, selections of which were included by Kurt Pinthus in his ground-breaking anthology Menschheitsdämmerung (The Dawn of Humanity, 1919). Born in the Alsatian town of Colmar, Stadler grew up in Strasbourg and began publishing poems as a teenager. He joined the ‘Stürmer-Kreis’, a coterie of writers hoping to rejuvenate artistic life in Alsatia, and in 1904 published an early collection of poems, Praeludien, which was strongly influenced by aestheticism. Stadler taught German and comparative literature in Strasbourg and Brussels before being summoned to his post as a reserve officer in the German Army at the outbreak of the First World War.
