Macht und Herrschaft werden seit jeher und uberall in Geschichten und Geschichte beschrieben und reflektiert. Doch worin liegt die spezifische Leistungsfahigkeit solcher Zeugnisse, und gibt es kulturubergreifende Gemeinsamkeiten der narrativen Gestaltung?


Power and domination have been described and reflected upon at all times and everywhere in stories and history. But what is the specific capability of such manifestations? Are there transcultural similarities regarding the narrative presentation? What can be deduced from the analysis of macrostructures, patterns of story-telling, narrative voice(s), configuration of figures, perspectivation, or focalization regarding the conception of power and domination? What do statements in (potentially) extant framing passages have to bear on those in the main part? Researchers from European philology, history, Islamic studies and Egyptology investigate these questions, directing attention to the techniques of narration, which are used in the textual performance of power and domination.
