- Jørgen Bruhn, Linnaeus Centre for Intermedial and Multimodal Studies, Linnaeus UniversityIntermedial Ecocriticism: Comparing Representations of the Ecological Crisis across Media (Intermedial økokritik. Repræsentationer af økokrisen i forskellige medier)This article argues that major insights from intermedial studies and ecocriticism could be combined in order to produce a productive theoretical and methodological position called Intermedial Ecocriticism. Intermedial Ecocriticism is built upon the simple observation that the production of scientific knowledge concerning the critical ecological condition in the Anthropocene reaches the laymen public by way of non-scientific texts in a number of different media types. This corpus — called ecomedia products — covers everything from popular scientific journalism, museum exhibitions or educational material, to literary climate fiction, visual art projects and documentary film or poetry. The main goal of Intermedial Ecocriticism is to be able to analyze, interpret and compare samples from this extensive and heterogeneous corpus of texts, thus going far beyond the tradition of ecocriticism to focus only on literary and other artistic texts. Thus, the position is meant to offer a humanities contribution to better understand and act upon the pending ecological crisis.The first part of the article offers a general outline of theory and method of Intermedial Ecocriticism, whereas the second part exemplifies one particular concretization of the position. A videoanimation by Danish artist Per Arnoldi and two contemporary cli-fi novels by Mats Söderlund and Hanna Rut Carlsson are briefly analyzed and compared. The analysis focuses on the questions of narrativity and the representation of the possibility of human agency in the three ecomedia products.

Litteratur i gränszonen : Transnationella litteraturer i översättning ur ett nordiskt perspektiv
- 2011
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- ANtologin Litteraturer i gränszonen analyserar texter som uppstått i sammanhang där olika språk mer eller mindre frivilligt samexisterar och ställer frågan om vad som händer när verk vandrar från ett språk till ett annat, från en kontext till en annan. Boken stammar ur ett antal workshopar kring översättning och reception av utomeuropeiska litteraturer i Norden och samlar forskningsrapporter från tio forskare från olika ämnen som kritiskt diskuterar olika aspekter av transnationalism i litteraturen. Uppsatserna bidrar inte bara till att belysa hur vi genom litteraturen bemöter det främmande utan har också som syfte att synliggöra och problematisera Nordens plats på det världslitterära fältet.

African Street Literature : A Method for an Emergent Form Beyond World Literature
- 2020
-
Ingår i: Research in African Literatures. - : Indiana University Press. - 0034-5210 .- 1527-2044. ; 51:2, s. 1-26
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This paper begins with the assertion that world literature is in danger of becoming a closed system, whereby literature anticipates its critical reception in both its form and content. Emergent African literary forms are often excluded from the field of world literature precisely because they demand methods of reading that challenge this anticipatory logic. We refer to this emergent literature circulating in African urban spaces as "African street literature." This paper focuses on three such street forms: ephemeral print literature, flash fiction, and spoken word poetry. In all three cases, the literary form registers its situated-ness, and as such its location is co-constructive of the field of the literary text. The methodological intervention that the paper makes explores ways of reading context, material, form, and content as combined and codetermining without losing attention to the literariness of the text under examination.

Swedish Crime Fiction in the Soviet Union. Publication and Paratextual Framing

- Malin Podlevskikh Carlström, Department of Languages and Literatures, University of Gothenburg and School of Languages and Translation Studies, University of TurkuSwedish Crime Fiction in the Soviet Union: Publication and Paratextual FramingThis article investigates the publication and paratextual framing of Swedish crime fiction in the Soviet Union. Based on an analysis of the written peritexts of 21 editions, conclusions are drawn regarding: 1) the representation of the genre of crime fiction, and in particular Swedish crime fiction; 2) the representation of Swedish crime fiction authors; 3) the representation of the source culture of Sweden; 4) ideological aspects of the paratextual framing. A premise for the analysis is that in a literary system governed by strict censorship, the peritext becomes a tool used by the censorship apparatus, and industry-created peritexts are often ideologically motivated. The analysis reveals that Swedish crime fiction and Swedish crime fiction authors are clearly distinguished from the general Anglo-American crime fiction genre. Swedish crime fiction is described as being written by authors whose main purpose is not to entertain the reader, but rather to reveal the truth about social injustice and capitalist society. Secondly, positive representations of Sweden are ironically corrupted and used in combination with details from the storyline of crime fiction novels in order to show that all positive representations of Sweden and Western society are false. Thirdly, the paratext creators try to convince the reader that gruesome images of Sweden from crime fiction novels are true representations of everyday life in Sweden. To conclude, it is clear that state censorship was involved in both the selection and the paratextual framing of Swedish crime fiction in the Soviet Union. Furthermore, it is reasonable to assume that the real purpose behind the publication of Swedish crime fiction was not related to literature as such. Instead, these novels were deliberately selected for publication in the Soviet Union for the purpose of corrupting the image of Sweden and creating a representation that better suited the ideology of the State.
