AbstractJean Paul’s collection Grönländische Prozesse, oder Satirische Skizzen (1783–4/1821) has been scrutinized regarding its exuberant similes and its satirical wit, but ranked low compared to his novels. From the beginning, however, it exposes a groundbreaking strategy resonating in his more famous literary and theoretical works alike. The first sketch “On literary writing. An opusculum posthumum” converts a rhetoric of the known material world – with its diversity of life forms – into a materialistic-physiological writing (and vice versa). The text interchanges processes of transformation (e. g. ‘metabolic,’ ‘biotic,’ ‘chemical’) with techniques that are capable of changing things rhetorically. Pertaining to Jean Paul’s later analysis of antithetical wit, I suggest grasping the structure of this interchanging as a rhetorical process in itself, which can be pinpointed by the figure of antimetabole (or commutatio). Consequently, this complex dynamics is connected to transitions between ‘alive’ and ‘dead’. The status of “On literary writing” as a posthumously published draft and pseudo-poetological treatise, introduced by a fictive editor, thus exactly fits the rhetorico-physiological processes it stages and complements a genuinely anticipatory writing.
Abstract
The Tollense valley in northeast Germany is well known for its substantial evidence indicating a violent conflict dated to the early 13th century BC (Period III of the Nordic Bronze Age). This article presents a significant new find from a later Bronze Age context, found in the river at a known Bronze Age valley crossing (site Weltzin 13) by Ronald Borgwardt in 2020. The small bronze figurine (14.7 cm tall) has an egg-shaped head with a prominent nose, looped arms, a neckring, two knobs signifying breasts, a belt, an indication of a female sex and two slightly differently shaped legs. In the 19th century a similar female statuette was found near the village of Klein Zastrow, just a few kilometres from the valley crossing, but mostly these figurines are known from Zealand and Scania. Belts are only present on the statuettes from Zealand and northern Germany, and their presence suggests a close connection between the figures from these areas. Typological evidence places the figure from the Tollense river to the Late Bronze Age (Periods V–VI). Some time ago the figures were discussed as possible balance weights, but their small number does not support this theory. With a mass of 155 g, however, the new figure could be seen as a multiple of 26 g, the previously proposed weight unit of the time. The new find further suggests a connection between the find spots of the statuettes and routes of communication. There is little evidence to support an interpretation as a goddess. The deposition of the new figure at a valley crossing where hundreds of years before a violent conflict happened, might indicate that this was still a place of commemoration.
Neben Hygge, Krimis, Sauna und Lakritz gehört wohl nichts so eindeutig zum deutschen Stereotyp von den nordischen Gesellschaften wie der Wohlfahrtsstaat. Dabei wird er im Norden seit seiner Einführung zwiespältig diskutiert: Entmündigt er seine Bürger und Bürgerinnen? Und wie geht es dem Sozialstaat nach über 20 Jahren Neoliberalismus? Auch die Belletristik verhandelt den Wohlfahrtsstaat seit seinen Anfängen, und die Wissenschaft hat sich dem Thema in den letzten Jahren intensiv angenommen. Wie ubiquitär der Wohlfahrtsstaat als Vorstellungsrahmen für die Imagination eines gelungenen Lebens tatsächlich ist, möchte ich einleitend zu dieser Rubrik an einem eher untypischen literarischen Beispiel belegen:

Summary
The present article deals with Easy-to-read Russian. It focuses on the level of syntax which is mainly characterized by the avoidance of complex sentence structures. The necessity to write sentences that are as short and simple as possible is intuitively comprehensible, but often difficult to implement in practice since Easy-to-read texts also have to express causal, final or many other relations. Suggestions for avoiding complex syntactic structures in Russian are submitted and put up for discussion by consulting results and important proposals of studies about German “Leichte Sprache”. This includes both clause constructions and complex sentences with their individual subgroups as well as asyndetic compound sentences. On the whole, the study is intended to make a linguistically substantiated contribution to the development of Easy-to-read Russian, for which there are only initial approaches available today.
Die Macht der Interpretation
(2019)
Abstract
The article treats the problem of interpretation in its respect to reality by example of Umberto Eco’s moderate ‚realistic‘ position and his criticism of Friedrich Nietzsche, the “father” of postmodernism. Here the strongest arguments on both sides are evaluated: Eco’s “negative realism” pointing out the impossibility of some interpretations and Nietzsche’s thinking out the absolute absence of a privileged position proceeding from which it would be possible to unequivocally identify what is real. The article argues that the crucial point why some interpretations may prove to be stronger or weaker is best described in terms of the concept of power. One however should avoid misconceptions, since power itself is interpretation which nevertheless allows for the gradation of reality, the mobility of its horizons, their shifting and even their potential availability. A much-disputed question of prehistoric times as well as that of death as a limit of interpretability is inter alia included in the analysis. Both classical anti-realistic positions, such as that of Wittgenstein, and the argumentation of contemporary advocates of realism, such as Quentin Meillassoux, are taken into consideration.

Zerstückte Laufbahn
(2016)
Karl Philipp Moritz’ Roman Anton Reiser (1785–1790) schildert die Laufbahn
seines Titelhelden.1 Trotz aller Bewegungsmetaphorik, die bereits in dessen Namen eingetragen ist, erscheint diese – der zeitgenössischen Semantik entsprechend2 – dabei zumindest nicht als rein linearer Prozess: Reisers Laufbahn ist
nämlich nicht nur durch progredierende, sondern auch durch zirkuläre, retardie

Einflussmöglichkeiten von Staatsfonds auf die Bankensysteme der EU-Länder außerhalb des Euroraums
(2022)
Zusammenfassung
Die geballte Finanzkraft in aller Welt agierender Investoren ist beeindruckend. Zu ihnen zählen Staatsfonds, die vielfach von autoritären Regimen geleitet und verwaltet werden. Eine Beteiligung dieser Fonds an Banken, die in anderen Ländern Schlüsselpositionen einnehmen, ist nicht auszuschließen. Konkret untersuchen Thomas Junghanns und Jan Körnert für die acht EU-Länder außerhalb des Euroraums, welche Banken dort Schlüsselpositionen einnehmen, ob beim Streben nach Macht einfache oder qualifizierte Mehrheiten an diesen Banken erworben werden können, ob Staatsfonds über ausreichend Vermögen verfügen, um solche Beteiligungen einzugehen, und wie hoch der Anteil am Staatsfondsvermögen dann wäre. Im Ergebnis zeigt sich unter anderem, dass vier Staatsfonds autoritärer Regime (China, Abu Dhabi, Saudi-Arabien, Kuwait) jeweils nicht einmal ein Drittel ihrer Vermögen einsetzen müssten.
Summary
The article discusses Adam Naruszewicz‘s famous Ode to Justice (1773) and the engagement of occasional poetry in contemporary discussions about the handling of justice in political trials. Looking at the trial of 1773 the Ode addresses the question of finding a just sentence for the abortive attempt two years earlier to abduct king Stanisław August. The article presents the pertinent aspects for such an analysis in three parts: 1) an introduction to the conceptualization of royal justice in European thought of the Enlightenment, 2) the known facts about the abduction and its historical contexts, 3) an overview of the occasional poetry written by Naruszewicz about the incident from 1771 to 1773 leading to an analysis of the Ode to Justice in regard to the political reasoning of its author.
