OTHERTONGUES: MULTILINGUALISM, NATALITY AND EMPOWERMENT IN SHARON DODUA OTOO'S ADAS RAUM

Aine Mcmurtry

Summary: This article examines Sharon Dodua Otoo's novel "Adas Raum" and how it challenges dominant narratives and patriarchal models through the foregrounding of diasporic female figures. It reimagines community through intersubjective encounters and shared spaces, rejecting linear constructions of time and bounded concepts of nation and peoples. Otoo's narrative also explores the concept of "natality" as a model for political action that defies forms of domination, drawing from Hannah Arendt and Adriana Cavarero's writings. Additionally, Black feminist thought informs the ambivalent figuration of motherhood and the intersectional issues of gender, racial, and class discrimination.

Joseph Kebe-Nguema

Summary: The novella "Synchronicity" by Sharon Dodua Otoo explores the intersection of Blackness and dis/ability through the lens of DisCrit theory. The essay argues that Otoo effectively depicts the onset of an invisible dis/ability and experiences of Blackness and diaspora, while an Afrofuturist reading reveals the story as one of hope, self-acceptance, and community.

Historical rhapsody: Citation and pseudo-citation in Herder's Auch eine Philosophie der Geschichte zur Bildung der Menschheit

Tim Ellison

Summary: This article examines Johann Gottfried Herder's use of citations in his work "Auch eine Philosophie der Geschichte zur Bildung der Menschheit" and argues that these citations create a polyphonic text that reflects a polyphonic vision of history. The article demonstrates that Herder's citational practice may have more intentionality than initially thought, as his text is a stitching-together of dispersed voices under the theme of intra-textual conversation.
