The epigraph to Correction, Austrian writer Thomas Bernhard's masterpiece, reads: 'A body needs at least three points of support, not in a straight line, to fix its position.' Three-Part Inventions finds in this simple geometrical axiom a surprisingly complex key to an understanding of Bernhard's major novels. It argues that each of them, although firmly anchored in Austrian history, emerges from an archetypal story involving a trio of figures: a protagonist who, having been deprived of a desired object by a more powerful adversary, displaces his frustration upon a scapegoat who suffers in his place. It further shows that Bernhard transforms this destructive protagonist-adversary-scapegoat pattern into a creative trio formed by the author himself, the artistic precursors who serve as his models, and the readers who receive the finished work. This study is intended to enrich for English-language readers the unforgettable experience of reading the author whom Italo Calvino once called 'the greatest writer in the world.'

Over the course of three days in 1970, June 5, 6, and 7, simply sitting on a white bench in a Hamburg park, Thomas Bernhard delivered a powerful monologue for Three Days (Drei Tage), filmmaker Ferry Radax’s commanding film portrait of the great Austrian writer. Radax interwove the monologue with a variety of metaphorically resonant visual techniques blacking out the screen to total darkness, suggestive of the closing of the observing eye; cuts to scenes of cameramen, lighting and recording equipment; extreme camera distance and extreme closeup. Bernhard had not yet written his autobiographical work Gathering Evidence, published originally in five separate volumes between 1975 and 1982, and his childhood remembrances were a revelation. This publication of Bernhard’s monologue and stills from Radax’s artful film allows this unique portrait of Bernhard to be savored in book form.

In Narratives Unsettled, Samuel Frederick proposes a new conception of narrativity that can accommodate unwieldy forms of digression. By way of close readings of three German-language writers from different historical periods, Frederick demonstrates that digression, far from being a non- or anti-narrative interruption, contributes to what makes these writers' works fundamentally narrative. In the process, the author counters several foundational assumptions of classical narratology, including the conviction--rooted in Aristotle--that narrative without plot is logically impossible, and that anything deviating from narrative's teleological imperative is either destructive or insignificant. Frederick's readings of the narrative experiments, utopian moments, and obsessions with the trivial in works by Walser, Bernhard, and Stifter point to new ways of approaching the ostensibly antinarrative as a productive element of narrativity. As a work that explores the often neglected crossroads of German studies and postclassical narratology, Narratives Unsettled will be of great interest to scholars in both of these fields, as well as to those working on literature and theory in general.

Thomas Bernhard (1931–1989), a literary figure of international acclaim and arguably Austria’s greatest post–World War II writer, became the first of his generation to expose unrelentingly his country’s pathological denial of complicity in the Holocaust. Bernhard’s writings and indeed his own biography reflect Austria’s fraught efforts to define itself as a nation following the collapse of the Habsburg monarchy and the trauma of World War II. Repeatedly he scandalized the nation with novels, plays, and public statements that exposed the convoluted ways Austrians were attempting to come to terms with their Nazi past—or defiantly avoiding doing so. This book, the first comprehensive biography of Thomas Bernhard in English, examines his life and work and their intricate relationship to Austria’s geographical, political, and cultural transformations in the twentieth century. While Bernhard was the scourge of his native culture, Honegger explains, he was also a product of that same culture. Appreciation of his controversial impact on his society is possible only through an understanding of the contradictions, the shame, and the achievements that mark Austrians’ self-perception in the postwar years. Honegger shows that for Bernhard the theater was not only a profession but also a paradigm for his life, and that performance was the primary force animating his writing and self-construction. Even after his death, Bernhard’s carefully constructed biography continues to fascinate, shock, and expose the Austrian culture at large.

Edgardo Vega, tras dieciocho anos de exilio voluntario en Canada, se ve obligado a regresar a El Salvador para acudir al entierro de su madre. Ya el viaje, «una espeluznante travesia», se le hace insoportable, sus compatriotas le resultan repulsivos y provocan en el un estado de ansiedad que no le abandonara hasta que se marche. Todo esto se lo cuenta de manera torrencial a Moya, antiguo companero de colegio, con quien queda durante su estancia para tomar unas copas, y el cual reproducira posteriormente el salvaje monologo de Vega. El Salvador le resulta a Vega despreciable, arremete contra todo: Iglesia, educacion, politica y politicos, su propia familia..., y vomita sus criticas de forma categorica, hasta el punto de identificarse con Thomas Bernhard. / Edgardo Vega, after eighteen years of voluntary exile in Canada, returns to El Salvador to attend the funeral of his mother. The trip, ""a spooky journey"" is unbearable, his compatriots are repulsive and lead him into it a state of anxiety that will not leave until he leaves. He tells Moya, a former schoolmate, all of his feelings about the visiting. Vega finds El Salvador despicable, he attacks everything: church, education, politics and politicians, his own family... and throw up his criticisms to the point of identifying himself with Thomas Bernhard.
