Dr. Alexander Tille (1866–1912) was one of the key-figures in Anglo-German intercultural transfer towards the end of the 19th century. As a lecturer in German at Glasgow University he was the first to translate and edit Nietzsche’s work into English. Writers such as W. B. Yeats were influenced by Nietzsche and used Tille’s translations. Tille’s social Darwinist reading of the philosopher’s oeuvre, however, had a narrowing impact on the reception of Nietzsche in the Anglo-Saxon world for decades. Through numerous publications Tille disseminated knowledge about British authors (e.g., Robert Louis Stevenson, William Wordsworth) in Germany and about German authors (e.g., Johann Wolfgang von Goethe) in Britain. His role as mediator also extended into areas such as history, religion, and industry. During the Boer war, however, Tille’s outspoken pro-German nationalism brought him in conflict with his British host society. After being physically attacked by his students he returned to Germany and published a highly anglophobic monograph. Tille personifies the paradox of Anglo-German relations in the pre-war years, which deteriorated despite an increase in intercultural transfer and knowledge about the respective Other.

Conferencia y debate posterior con Simon Zabell, artista y profesor de Bellas Artes en la Universidad de Granada, uno de los autores más reconocidos dentro del panorama contemporáneo español. La sesión versó sobre el proceso creativo de su último proyecto, que da título a la conferencia, centrándose en el cruce disciplinar que en éste se produce entre la pintura y la literatura, particularmente la última novela de Joseph Conrad. De este forma, se proyectó durante la sesión en primicia un adelanto de montaje del documental que Zabell ha rodado entre Tahiti y Granada acerca del proyecto. Zabell, Después de estudiar pintura y escultura en esta Universidad, desarrolló un interés en los efectos de la performance y la narrativa sobre la pintura y la instalación, que le llevó a estudiar escenografía con Philip Prowse en Slade School of Fine Art de Londres. Desde entonces ha utilizado principalmente la pintura, la escultura y la instalación para desarrollar proyectos con un fuerte contenido narrativo y escenográfico, y que a menudo se basan en obras de creadores previos, como el autor radical francés Alain Robbe-Grillet y el compositor Karlheinz Stockhausen. Estos proyectos se han expuesto ampliamente en salas del Reino Unido, España y Suecia, y en numerosas ferias de arte como SCOPE LONDON, PINTA NY, ARCO, BALELATINA BASEL etc. El proyecto actual de Zabell, Our Men in Tahiti, se basa en la novela The Ebb Tide (Bajamar) de Robert Louis Stevenson y está acompañado de una película documental que saldrá a la luz en 2016.

La presente ricerca di dottorato, attraverso un’indagine multidisciplinare, si pone l’obiettivo di elaborare in chiave pedagogica una riflessione sulla relazione esistente tra la letteratura per l’infanzia, la narrazione, l’esperienza e il limite. La ricerca mira ad analizzare le metafore del limite intese come metafore della caducità, della ferita, della marginalità, della liminalità, della divergenza e dell’alterità. La ricerca si concentra in particolare sulle rappresentazioni metaforiche della relazione educativa tra personaggi mentori e personaggi bambini, colti in attraversamenti e transizioni esistenziali, colti quindi nell’atto di cura della loro natura limitata. L’impianto teorico-interpretativo elaborato è utilizzato per sondare criticamente l’opera di Robert Louis Stevenson e di James Matthew Barrie, autori scelti come rappresentanti emblematici del periodo di soglia a cavallo di secolo, compreso tra il 1880 e il 1914. Attraverso l’applicazione del paradigma indiziario della ricerca storiografica e letteraria, l’indagine raccoglie correlazioni incongrue tra le opere, le biografie e la storia in cui esse si inseriscono, per formulare ipotesi che permettano un’interpretazione delle modificazioni che le rappresentazioni del limite subirono in quel periodo, sul limitare del primo conflitto mondiale.

In the early twentieth century, musicology was established as an academic discipline in the United States. Nonetheless, with the exception of Iberian medieval and Renaissance repertories, U.S. scholars largely overlooked the music of the Spanish- and Portuguese- speaking world. Why should this have been the case, especially in light of Spain’s strong historical presence in the United States? This autobiographical essay examines this question by tracing the career of an individual musicologist, the Hispanist musicologist Carol A. Hess. Evaluated here are disciplinary shifts in U.S. musicology —methodological, philosophical, and ideological— over the past thirty years. These transformations have combined to make this repertory a viable field of study today. Musicologists in the United States can now make their careers by specializing in Iberian and Latin American music, as well as the music of the Hispanic diaspora. They research topics ranging from the avant-garde composer Llorenç Barber to the rapper Nach Scratch or the popular bandleader Xavier Cugat and his U.S. audiences of the 1940s, while others also pursue the time-tested areas of medieval and Renaissance music. Iberian and Latin American music is regularly offered in postsecondary institutions while instructors now have a variety of textbooks and other pedagogical resources from which to choose. All add up to a disciplinary freedom that would have been unthinkable only a few decades ago.
