Drawing on extensive archival research, this study considers the cultural dimensions of hegemony, with particular focus on the role of language in political debates and in scholarship of the period. It is shown that considerations of the relations between the proletariat and peasantry, the cities to the countryside and the metropolitan centre to the colonies of the Russian Empire demanded an intense dialogue between practical politics and theoretical reflection, which led to critical perspectives now assumed to be the achievements of, for instance, sociolinguistics and post-colonial studies.Historical materialism book series ;Volume 86.Language and languagesPolitical aspectsSoviet UnionHistoryLanguage policySoviet UnionHistorySociolinguisticsSoviet UnionHistoryLinguistsSoviet UnionHistoryHegemonySoviet UnionHistorySocialism and cultureSoviet UnionHistorySoviet UnionPolitics and government1917-1936Soviet UnionIntellectual life1917-1970Electronic books.Language and languagesPolitical aspectsHistory.Language policyHistory.SociolinguisticsHistory.LinguistsHistory.HegemonyHistory.Socialism and cultureHistory.306.440947Brandist Craig1963-1035803MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910493169803321The dimensions of hegemony2455689UNINA03651 am 22004933u 450 991014184650332120221206182107.01-60801-140-23-903122-35-11-60801-092-9(CKB)2670000000395144(OCoLC)981810904(FrMaCLE)OB-iup-211(PPN)197596312(EXLCZ)99267000000039514420180129h20122012 fy 0engurmn#||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierAustrian lives /Günter Bischoff, Fritz Plasser, Eva Maltschnig (eds.)New Orleans, Louisiana :University of New Orleans Press ;Innsbruck, Austria :Innsbruck University Press,[2012].©20121 online resource (xvii, 483 pages) illustrations, portraitsOpen Access e-BooksKnowledge UnlatchedContemporary Austrian Studies ;v. 213-902811-61-7 Includes bibliographical references.Writing biographies for a long time had been a male hegemonic project. Ever since Plutarch and Sueton composed their vitae of the greats of classical antiquity, to the medieval obsession with the hagiographies of holy men (and a few women) and saints, Vasari's lives of great Renaissance artists, down to the French encyclopedists, Dr. Johnson and Lytton Strachey, as well as Ranke and Droysen the genre of biographical writing has become increasingly more refined. In the twentieth century male predominance has become contested and the (collective) lives of women, minorities and ordinary people are now the focus of biographical writing. This volume of Contemporary Austrian Studies offers a cross-section of Austrian lives and biographical approaches to recent Austrian history. Here are what may be called traditional biographies of leading political figures through the twentieth century. We also suggest that the intellectual biographies of thinkers and professionals are fertile soil for biographical study. Moreover, the prosopographical study of common folks in the Austrian population lifts these lives from the dark matter of anonymous masses and gives rich insight into the lives that ordinary Austrians have been leading. We present an array of political lives, including that of Ignaz Seipel and Therese Schlesinger-Eckstein, as well as "Lives of the Mind" which capture the lives of fascinating intellectual figures in pre- and post-World War II Vienna such as Viktor Frankl and Eugenie Schwarzwald. The approaches to writing biography taken in this volume also suggest that much work needs to be done to shed light on the lives of ordinary Austrians. In this volume we have biographical accounts detailing the lives of soldiers, prisoners of war, and farming families. The writing of lives is always situated between fact and fiction, ascertainable data and the imagination of the biographer. This volume of Austrian Lives offers an intimate look into the lives of intriguing individuals while illuminating the touching lives of ordinary Austrians in wartime Vienna.Contemporary Austrian Studies ;v. 21.AustriaBiography20th centuryAustriaHistory20th century920.0436Bischof Günter1953-,Plasser Fritz1948-,Maltschnig Eva1987-,UkMaJRUAuAdUSABOOK9910141846503321Austrian lives1991013UNINA
