Zusammenfassung: | This volume offers a critical analysis of a segment of American literary production surrounding the September 11, 2001 attacks on the United States. While focusing on the writing of Jonathan Safran Foer, Art Spiegelman, Don DeLillo, and Thomas Pynchon, the author locates this work within a larger 9/11 cultural archive. The book proceeds by way of a series of thematic leaps in order to unearth the active entanglement of the event with systems of meaning and power that create the conditions for its emergence and understanding. The main problem of such an approach consists in articulating the three-fold relation at the heart of the archive in which issues of traumatic loss, affect, and politics appear as central: between the historical event, its cultural imprint, and the wider social system. In order to grasp these fundamental relations, the author resorts to a layered interpretive framework and engages a number of theoretical protocols, from psychoanalysis and nationalism studies to philosophy of history, world-system theory, and the heterogeneous critical practices of American Studies. Coming from a non-US Americanist perspective, this contribution to the scholarly production about 9/11 concentrates on trauma as a problem in the conceptualization the event, insists on globalization as its crucial context, and argues for a historical materialist approach to the 9/11 archive. |

In order to grasp these fundamental relations, the author resorts to a layered interpretive framework and engages a number of theoretical protocols, from psychoanalysis and nationalism studies to philosophy of history, world-system theory, and the heterogeneous critical practices of American Studies. Coming from a non-US Americanist perspective, this contribution to the scholarly production about 9/11 concentrates on trauma as a problem in the conceptualization the event, insists on globalization as its crucial context, and argues for a historical materialist approach to the 9/11 archive.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="505" ind1="0" ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Cover -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Table of Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction: Reading the 9/11 Archive -- 1 Enduring Event: Telling Stories around September 11 -- 2 Constant Replay: Community Building at the Site/Sight of Trauma -- 3 Common Ground: Melodramas of 9/11 -- 4 Shock and Own: Mediation and Expropriation In the Shadow of No Towers -- 5 Globalizing (the) Nation -- 6 The Market Moves Us in Mysterious Ways: Don DeLillo on 9/11 -- 7 Cosmopolis: A Meditation on Deterritorialization -- 8 Killing Politics: The Art of Recovery in Falling Man</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="505" ind1="8" ind2=" "><subfield code="a">9 Good Mourning, America: Genealogies of Loss in Against the DayConclusion -- Bibliography -- Index</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="546" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">English.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">September 11 Terrorist Attacks, 2001, in mass media.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2007003819</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">September 11 Terrorist Attacks, 2001</subfield><subfield code="x">Influence.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2004005513</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Attentats du 11 septembre 2001, États-Unis dans les médias.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">LITERARY CRITICISM</subfield><subfield code="x">American</subfield><subfield code="x">General.</subfield><subfield code="2">bisacsh</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Influence (Literary, artistic, etc.)</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">September 11 Terrorist Attacks (2001) in mass media</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="647" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">September 11 Terrorist Attacks</subfield><subfield code="d">(2001)</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield><subfield code="0">(OCoLC)fst01112794</subfield><subfield code="1">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39Qhp4vBbhpXFv9XtDc43JFHK</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="648" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">2001</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="655" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Criticism, interpretation, etc.</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="758" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="i">has work:</subfield><subfield code="a">Towering figures (Text)</subfield><subfield code="1">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PCGfJHQGHdrkJMdp3RBV9jC</subfield><subfield code="4">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/ontology/hasWork</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="776" ind1="0" ind2="8"><subfield code="i">Print version:</subfield><subfield code="a">Cvek, Sven.</subfield><subfield code="t">Towering figures.</subfield><subfield code="d">Amsterdam ;

Amsterdam : Editions Rodopi, 2011. 1 online resource (271 pages) text txt rdacontent computer c rdamedia online resource cr rdacarrier Costerus ; new ser., v. 190 Includes bibliographical references and index. Print version record. This volume offers a critical analysis of a segment of American literary production surrounding the September 11, 2001 attacks on the United States. While focusing on the writing of Jonathan Safran Foer, Art Spiegelman, Don DeLillo, and Thomas Pynchon, the author locates this work within a larger 9/11 cultural archive. The book proceeds by way of a series of thematic leaps in order to unearth the active entanglement of the event with systems of meaning and power that create the conditions for its emergence and understanding. The main problem of such an approach consists in articulating the three-fold relation at the heart of the archive in which issues of traumatic loss, affect, and politics appear as central: between the historical event, its cultural imprint, and the wider social system. In order to grasp these fundamental relations, the author resorts to a layered interpretive framework and engages a number of theoretical protocols, from psychoanalysis and nationalism studies to philosophy of history, world-system theory, and the heterogeneous critical practices of American Studies. Coming from a non-US Americanist perspective, this contribution to the scholarly production about 9/11 concentrates on trauma as a problem in the conceptualization the event, insists on globalization as its crucial context, and argues for a historical materialist approach to the 9/11 archive.
