Bekenntnisse Einer Giftmischerin, Von Ihr Selbst Geschrieben
Modern Language Association of America (Verlag)
978-1-60329-064-7 (ISBN)
In their introduction to the translation, Raleigh Whitinger and Diana Spokiene show how Confessions was written in response to a literary tradition (Richardson, Rousseau, Goethe) and how, in its questioning of the submissive images and roles of women, it anticipates feminist fiction of a century later. Whitinger and Spokiene also review the critical arguments about whether the author was a man or a woman.
Raleigh Whitinger has published on Romanticism, realism of the nineteenth century, and the development of modern German prose. His research interests include women's writing, the Bildungsroman, and modern drama. Diana Spokiene is Associate Professor in German Studies. She is also affiliated with the Graduate Program in Humanities, and the Canadian Centre for German and European Studies. Her research and teaching areas are modern German literature, gender and cultural production, inter/cultural studies, and small nations in the context of globalization. Her publications include the edition of Letters about Berlin by Friederike Helene Unger, the co-edition and the first English translation of the 1803 bestselling novel Bekenntnisse einer Giftmischerin, Von ihr selbst geschrieben [ Confessions of a Poisoner, Written by Herself] (with Raleigh Whitinger) and articles on Jurga Ivanauskaite, Thomas Mann and Walter Benjamin, Friederike Helene Unger, and Yoko Tawada.
