Aberkennung und historisches Bewusstsein: das Beispiel Alice Bärwald

Mis-recognition and historical consciousness: the case of Alice Bärwald

'Die Autobiographie von Alice Bärwald, einer jüdischen Emigrantin im Nationalsozialismus aus Danzig, wird unter der theoretischen Perspektive einer Aberkennungstheorie rekonstruiert. Zum einen wird die autobiographische Erzählung als Substrat des historischen Bewusstseins (Straub) der Erzählerin aufgefasst, die aus der gegenwärtigen Perspektive (ihrem Emigrationsstandort) sinnstiftend ihre Lebensgeschichte erzählt. Andererseits findet eine Auseinandersetzung mit einer erkennbaren Wandlung (Strauss) der Biographin von einer deutschen Kulturbürgerin hin zu einer aktiven Zionistin statt. Diese Diskussion wird eingebettet in die Darstellungen über ihre biographischen Daten und den historischen Kontext ihrer Biographie. Ausführlich wird auf die Theorien der Anerkennung (Honneth) und der Aberkennung (Garz) eingegangen. Schließlich wird gezeigt, dass Autobiographie den erzählerischen Weg zur 'Wieder'Anerkennung bildet, was systematisch zu unterscheiden ist von einem stetigen 'Kampf um Anerkennung'. Die von Alice Bärwald erfahrene Aberkennung ihrer Zugehörigkeit zur deutschen wird mit einer neuerlichen Anerkennung in der jüdischen Gemeinde bewältigt.' (Autorenreferat)... view less

'The autobiography of Alice Bärwald, a Jewish emigrant from Danzig during the Nazi era, is reconstructed in terms of a theory of mis-recognition. On the one hand, the autobiographical narrative is conceptualized as the substratum of the historical consciousness (Straub) of the narrator who, in her present perspective (her place of emigration), tells the story of her life as a coherent and meaningful trajectory. On the other hand, the paper discusses a visible change (Strauss) undergone by the biographer who, once a German citizen imbued with German culture, becomes an active Zionist. This discussion is embedded in a presentation of her biographical data as well as of the historical context of her biography. The theories of recognition (Honneth) and mis-recognition (Garz) are discussed in detail. Finally, autobiography is shown to be a narrative way to gain 're'-recognition, as systematically distinct from a permanent 'struggle for recognition'. For Alice Bärwald, coping with being denied her membership of German society was achieved by the new recognition gained in the Jewish society.' (author's abstract)... view less
