Inhaltsangabe

All the Rage introduces Jelinek’s work and its critical relevance for understanding contemporary western society while gaining insight into the vibrancy of her aesthetics. Jelinek’s experimental reconceptualization of theater and literature and her critical interventions into public discourses that support, promote and endure social injustices are central to this volume. Themes of right-wing populism and neoliberalism, war, gender inequalities, racism, migration, the politics of memory, and the erasure of troubling historical pasts command her work. The volume brings together scholars, translators, and international artists who explore topics ranging from directorial considerations, postdramatic, intertextual and intermedial practices, the experience of performing, teaching and translating Jelinek’s work. Thematically relevant today, Austrian writer Elfriede Jelinek, recipient of the 2004 Nobel Prize for Literature, reveals the possibilities of literature and the stage to expose power, violence, and structural harm.
