Adorno). 520 "An interdisciplinary study of a diverse set of public speeches given by major literary and cultural figures in the 1950s and 1960s. Through close readings of canonical speeches by Hannah Arendt, Theodor W. Adorno, Ingeborg Bachmann, Martin Buber, Paul Celan, Uwe Johnson, Peter Szondi, and Peter Weiss, Sonja Boos demonstrates that these speakers both facilitated and subverted the construction of a public discourse about the Holocaust in postwar West Germany. The author's analysis of original audio recordings of the speech events (several of which will be available on a companion website) improves our understanding of the spoken, performative dimension of public speeches. While emphasizing the social constructedness of discourse, experience, and identity, Boos does not neglect the pragmatic conditions of aesthetic and intellectual production--most notably, the felt need to respond to the breach in tradition caused by the Holocaust. The book thereby illuminates the process by which a set of writers and intellectuals, instead of trying to mend what they perceived as a radical break in historical continuity or corroborating the myth of a "new beginning," searched for ways to make this historical rupture rhetorically and semantically discernible and literally audible"--|cPublisher's Web site. 546 In English. 588 0 Print version record. 611 07 Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945)|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00958866 648 7 1939-1945|2fast 650 0 Public opinion|zGermany (West) 650 0 Speeches, addresses, etc., German|xHistory and criticism. 650 0 Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945)|xPublic opinion. 650 0 Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945)|xInfluence. 650 7 HISTORY|zEurope|xWestern.|2bisacsh 650 7 HISTORY|xHolocaust.|2bisacsh 650 7 Influence (Literary, artistic, etc.)|2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00972484 650 7 Intellectual life.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00975769 650 7 Public opinion.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01082785 650 7 Speeches, addresses, etc., German.|2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01129361 651 0 Germany (West)|xIntellectual life. 651 7 Germany (West)|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01210273 655 7 Criticism, interpretation, etc.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01411635 776 08 |iPrint version:|aBoos, Sonja.|tSpeaking the Unspeakable in Postwar Germany : Toward a Public Discourse on the Holocaust.|dIthaca : Cornell University Press, ©1900 |z9780801479632 830 0 Signale (Ithaca, N.Y.) 914 ocn901048278 994 92|bCKE
