Sommario/riassunto

Nabokov's Women: The Silent Sisterhood of Textual Nomads is the first book-length study to focus on Nabokov's relationship with his heroines. Essays by distinguished Nabokov scholars explore the multilayered and nomadic nature of Nabokov's women: their voice and voicelessness, their absentness, the paradigm of power and sacrifice within which they are situated, the paradox of their unattainability, their complex relationship with textual borders, the travel narrative,



with the author himself. By design, Nabokov's woman is often assigned a short-term tourist visa with a firm expiration date. Her departure is facilitated by death or involuntary absence, which watermarks her into the male protagonist's narrative, granting him an artistic release or a gift of self-understanding. When she leaves the stage, her portrait remains ambiguous. She can be powerfully enigmatic, but not self-actualized enough to be dynamic or, for even where the terms of her existence are deeply considered or her image beheld reverently, her recognition seems to be limited to the “Works Cited” register of the male narrator's personal life. As a result, Nabokov's texts often feature a nomadic woman who seems to live without a narratorial homeland, papers of her own, or storytelling privileges. This volume explores the “residency status” of Nabokov's silent nomads—his fleeting lovers, witches, muses, mermaids, and nymphets. As Nabokov scholars analyze the power dynamic of the writer's narrative of male desire, they ponder—are these female characters directionless wanderers or covert operatives in the terrain of Nabokov's text? Whereas each essay addresses a different aspect of Nabokov's artistic relationship with the feminine, together they explore the politics of representation, authorization, and voicelessness. This collection offers new ways of reading and teaching Nabokov and is poised to appeal to a wide range of student and scholarly audiences. Chapter 4,'Nabokov's Mermaid:'Spring in Fialta'' by Elena Rakhimova-Sommers, is not available in the ebook format due to digital rights restrictions. You can find the earlier version of the chapter in the journal Nabokov Studies.

Sommario/riassunto

Der koptische Psalmencodex aus al-Mudil ist auf Grund seines hohen Alters (spätes 4. Jhd.) und des beinahe vollständigen Textumfanges ein Kronzeuge für den Septuaginta-Psalter. Wie andere Bibeltexte, die im mittelägyptischen Dialekt überliefert sind, weist auch er viele eigentümliche Lesarten auf. Die hier vorgelegte umfassende Analyse des Textes und seiner Beziehungen zu anderen Psalterversionen führt zur differenzierten Situierung in der Textgeschichte. Es zeigt sich, dass entgegen ersten Hypothesen die Textform nicht wesentlich älter als die Handschrift sein kann. Der koptische Übersetzer hat mehrere Vorlagen verwendet und versucht, auf Grund seines theologischen Verständnisses dem Psalter zu mehr Klarheit zu verhelfen. Der Mudil-Codex ist darum sowohl ein wichtiger Zeuge für teilweise sehr alte Textvarianten als auch ein faszinierendes Beispiel dafür, wie im Ägypten des 4. Jhd mit Bibeltexten umgegangen wurde.Die Studie enthält zwei kritische Neuausgaben griechischer Papyri. Es handelt sich um die Leipziger Papyrusrolle (P. 39 / Rahlfs 2013) und das Londoner Papyrusbuch (P. 37 / Rahlfs U). Beide Texte sind für die Textkritik des Septuaginta-Psalters von höchstem Wert, da sie die einzigen griechischen Zeugen des so genannten "oberägyptischen Textes" sind, der sonst nur auf koptisch erhalten ist.
