So Close and Yet so Foreign: Trans-Border relations in Paul S. Flores’ Along the Border Lies (2001) by Maria Antònia Oliver-Rotger

“…Flores’ Along the Border Lies looks at the northern and southern sides of the San Diego-Tijuana border region from a Chicano, postcolonial, postmodern perspective that considers class, status, and national origin as factors determining the way one relates to this place, the extent to which the border can be crossed in one direction or another, and the chances one has on the U.S and Mexican sides respectively. …”

“Revealing what cannot be spoken” – Gabriel Josipovici’s Short Stories as Illustrations of Transcendental Negativity by Werner Wolf

“…The present contribution focuses on Josipovici’s short stories and on the remarkable worldview they illustrate, which is characterized by what may be termed ‘transcendental negativity’: although Josipovici’s short fiction is historically aligned with postmodernism, the worldview implied in it features postmodernist scepticism only to a certain extent, for it transcends the negativity of an insistence on our “distance from understanding” by constantly gesturing towards an inscrutable beyond, by “revealing what cannot be spoken.” …”

Beyond Determinism: Geography of Jewishness in Nathan Englander’s “Sister Hills” and Michael Chabon’s The Yiddish Policemen’s Union by Filip Boratyn

“…I argue that while the generic framework of a realist short story and the Israeli setting of “Sister Hills” lead it to examine the essentialism of the Biblical discourse surrounding “the Holy Land,” Chabon’s novel, through its adoption of a more speculative approach, which involves moving the center of Jewish statehood to Alaska, is able to open up the discourse about Jewish territoriality to more postmodern contexts and introduce free will into the geography of Jewishness.…”

The Ecstasy of Communication. Critical remarks on Jean Baudrillard by Pieter Duvenage

“…The point is that with the “… greater mediatization of society … we are witnessing the virtualization of our world.”2 This contribution briefly reconstructs, firstly, two phases in Baudrillard’s intellectual career – phases that shifted from an early neo-Marxist critique of the modern consumer society to a post-Marxist or postmodern view of society (which include engagements with socio-anthropology; psychoanalysis, sociology, semiology and media theory), and eventually ends in a kind of anti-theory with an extreme fatal vision of the world.3 In section 2 the implications of these two shifts in Baudrillard’s intellectual career are contextualized in the field of media and communication studies – and specifically his concept of the “ecstasy of communication”. …”
