Literatur als Sprache. Literaturtheorie, Interpretation, Sprachkritik

Alle Literatur ist sprachlich. Das ist eine Trivialität, die das Denken erst noch provozieren müßte. Literatur als Sprache zu verstehen, soll bedeuten, daß es nicht genügt, Literatur als Kunst oder als Kommunikation und als Information zu definieren. Für die traditionelle Literaturästhetik ist die Sprache Material wie Ton, Farbe, Stein. Das kann sie nicht sein, denn sie ist immer auch Bedeutung. In den gängigen Literaturtheorien unserer Tage soll die Sprache als Zeichen der Information oder als Medium der Kommunikation funktionieren, also als Instrument. Damit reduziert man Sprache auf ein Moment an ihr. Gleichzeitig macht man Literatur zu einer Partikel dieses Moments. Dagegen kann an Literatur gelernt werden, was Sprache ist und sein kann, wenn diese nicht empirischen Zwängen und terminologischen Einschränkungen gehorcht. Literatur lehrt, was Sprache als die Einheit von subjektivem Ausdruck, Dialog und „Weltherstellung“ bedeutet. Literatur zeigt, daß Sprache nicht als System, sondern als menschliche Geschichte begriffen werden soll. Diese Reihe macht den Versuch, die Sprachlichkeit der Literatur in den Mittelpunkt der Reflexion zu stellen und dadurch einem neuen Sprachverständnis zu dienen. Das geschieht sowohl in Interpretationen und theoretischen Beiträgen, die die Universalität der Sprache darstellen, wie in sprachkritischen Untersuchungen, die auf Reduktionen der Sprache aufmerksam machen

The Yearbook on History and Interpretation of Phenomenology

“The Yearbook on History and Interpretation of Phenomenology” is a peer-reviewed annual. It includes contributions about the history of phenomenology because phenomenology has its own specific development anchored in the texts of Edmund Husserl, his predecessors and followers, its distinctive themes and problems set within the frame of the philosophical and scientific discussions of their period. The yearbook is open to inquiries about the interpretation of phenomenology and to different approaches towards understanding phenomenological research, its systematic and methodological insights and its possible contributions to contemporary discussions both about pure philosophy and within the context of more interdisciplinary research. It is also open to broader discussions with other philosophical schools of thought. Volume 5 terminates the series.
