    Der achte Band des ¿Jahrbuchs Literatur und Medizin¿ vereint Originalarbeiten, Essays und Rezensionen. Drei der acht Originalbeiträge gehen auf Vorträge zurück, welche in einer von Pascal Fischer und Florian Steger organisierten Sektion ¿Medical Humanities¿ im Rahmen der von der VolkswagenStiftung unterstützten Tagung ¿Philologie und Gesellschaft¿ in Hannover im September 2015 gehalten wurden. Die weiteren Originalbeiträge in deutscher und englischer Sprache reichen thematisch von August Kotzebues satirischer Bearbeitung medizinischer Modethemen über die medizinischen Topographien in den Stücken des Ärzteliteraten Arthur Schnitzler sowie über verschiedene Formen literarischer Repräsentation der Multiplen Sklerose und die Sterbehilfe im populären Diskurs des Films bis hin zur Theorie und Praxis der Narrativen Medizin in den U.S.A. und Deutschland. In den beiden Essays wird zum einen über das Sterben reflektiert, zum anderen wird für mehr Literatur in der Medizin im Sinne einer verstehenden Medizin plädiert. Zahlreiche Rezensionen runden den Band ab.

    Aotearoa New Zealand is frequently viewed as the most advanced country in the world when it comes to reconciliation processes between the state and its colonised Indigenous people. The fact that this book¿s contributions are written by scholars who are all engaged in such processes is alone testament to this alone. But despite all that has been achieved, the processes need to be critically evaluated. This book offers an up-to-date analysis of the reconciliation processes between M¿ori and the Crown by leading and emerging scholars in the field. It is the first attempt to grasp the link between contemporary politics, the notion of activist research, and historical and anthropological analysis. The argument this collection is based on is that reconciliation processes are manifested in much more than government policies, legal decisions and law-making.Both research and political efforts fully involve Indigenous scholars, legal and historical academics, communities, tribes, engaged P¿keh¿ (settlers and immigrants of European descent) and national institutions. Among other things, such negotiation processes are tangibly represented by (new) rituals, by open and media-streamed debates, and by public institutions such as the Waitangi Tribunal.

    ¿(Un)Making the Monarchy¿ offers a kaleidoscopic view on the British monarchy ¿ an institution that today seems integral, almost inevitable, to the British political system and the very texture of Britishness/Englishness. The contributions in this volume seek to historicise, contextualise, and politicise such dominant myths of the monarchy. They look at the strategies through which monarchical power has been legitimised and naturalised in the texts and practices of (not only) British culture and at the way in which the monarchy has, in turn, been used to legitimise and naturalise other hegemonic structures in society. They also engage with the forms and practices that have sought to contest and subvert monarchical power. Contributors thus tackle the psychological, performative, and political dimensions of monarchical reign, examine supportive as well as critical, satirical, and anti-monarchist representations in literature, theatre, the media, and deal with some of the monarchy¿s self-representations through public relations, fashion, and language.

    ¿Reading the Canon¿ explores the relation between the production of literary value and the problem of periodization, tracing how literary tastes, particular reader communities, and sites of literary learning shape the organization of literature in historical perspective. Rather than suggesting a political critique of the canon, this book shows that the production of literary relevance and its tacit hierarchies of value are necessary consequences of how reading and writing are organized as social practices within different fields of literary activity. ¿Reading the Canon¿ offers a comprehensive theoretical account of the conundrums still defining contemporary debates about literary value; the book also features a series of historically-inflected author studies¿from classics, such as Shakespeare and Thomas Pynchon, to less likely figures, such as John Neal and Owen Johnson¿that illustrate how the idea of literary relevance has been appropriated throughout history and across a variety of national and transnational literary institutions.

    The Middle English prose 'Pepysian Meditations on the Passion of Christ' (PMPC) survives uniquely in Cambridge, Magdalene College, MS Pepys 2125 and has not previously been published. It is one of several Middle English translations of the Passion sequence of the pseudo-Bonaventuran Latin 'Meditationes Vitae Christi' (MVC). This part of the MVC circulated independently and in this form is known in modern scholarship as the 'Meditationes de Passione Christi' (MPC). The editors argue that although the Middle English version in Pepys 2125 followed the model of the MPC, it is probable that the translation derives directly from a recension of the MPC. Although the translator handles the original with a degree of freedom, the text is not indebted to other sources. The Introduction includes an extensive description of the manuscript which is a late medieval devotional miscellany, and a detailed account of the language of the PMPC. It also addresses the textual tradition out of which the PMPC grew and the work of the translator. The edited text is followed by a commentary, glossary and bibliography.
