Mit dem 8. Mai 1945 ist das Exil der aus dem nationalsozialistischen Deutschland und Österreich Geflohenen und Vertriebenen nicht beendet. Aber Versuche, Kontakt aufzunehmen und an alte Beziehungen anzuknüpfen, setzen ein, um Lebensumstände, Positionen, Stimmungen und aktuelle Entwicklungen zu klären. In den Beiträgen des Sammelbandes geht es um Briefe von Frauen unterschiedlicher sozialer Herkunft und Lage, politischer Überzeugung und beruflicher Ausbildung und Perspektive: Ella Bergmann- Michel, Ilse Bing, Erna Blencke, Erna Döblin, Maria Gleit, Gabriele Kätzler, Hildegard Kramer, Vera Lachmann, Luise von Leyden, Johanna Marum, Lili Pollatz, Anna Siemsen, Minna Specht, Hilde Spiel, Grete Weil und Alma S. Wittlin schreiben über traumatische Erfahrungen, über die NS-Verbrechen, die Entfremdung und auch über ihre Akkulturation im Exilland sowie über ihre Pläne und die Vorbereitung einer möglichen Rückkehr, sofern diese nicht kategorisch abgelehnt wird, und über ihre Hoffnungen und Enttäuschungen nach der Remigration.

Reading and reading habits have radically changed in the digital age. Readers are no longer physically bound to textual objects and libraries, they deal with texts by copying, altering, and annotating them, and they mix established textual forms with other semiotic systems such as pictograms, icons and images. These circumstances also provoke a renewed research interest in the history of reading. In this talk, I will concentrate on reading processes as to how they were enacted and practised in early Italian and German humanism. I will start with some paradigmatic scenes described in Petrarch’s letters (among others the famous visit of the Mont Ventoux, where Petrarch, after having enjoyed a spectacular panorama, withdraws into the contemplative reading of St-Augustine). The transmission of Petrarch’s writings in humanist circles of Southern Germany (e.g. with the Schedel and Gossembrot families in Nurnberg, Augsburg and Strasburg) will then lead to specific reading practices documented in manuscripts that once belonged to coherent libraries and are nowadays spread all over Europe. In the case of the former tradesman and mayor Sigismund Gossembrot, complex habits of textual annotating and cross-referencing can be observed. The dichotomy of the Latin terms otium (‘rest’ and ‘leisure’) and negotium (‘activity’, but also ‘practice’, ‘negotiation’, ‘circulation of social energy’ in the sense of New Historicism) will be used as an ideal-type outline to describe the occurring processes of reading.
