Elfriede Jelinek (2004)

Elfriede Jelinek (born October 20, 1946 in Mürzzuschlag ) is an Austrian writer who lives in Vienna and Munich . In 2004 she received the Nobel Prize for Literature for “the musical flow of voices and dissenting voices in novels and dramas that reveal the absurdity and compelling power of social clichés with a unique linguistic passion”.

Elfriede Jelinek writes against grievances in public, political, but also in private life in Austrian society. In doing so, she uses a sarcastic , provocative style that is described by her opponents (“ nest defilement ” discussion), but also by herself, as obscene , blasphemous , vulgar or scornful.

life and work

Childhood, Adolescence and First Publications

Elfriede Jelinek was born on October 20, 1946 in Mürzzuschlag . Her mother Olga, b. Buchner, came from the Viennese upper middle class and supported the family for a long time by working as an accountant. Her father Friedrich Jelinek was a chemist, a graduate of the Vienna University of Technology and of Jewish - Czech descent. His “war-serving” profession saved him from persecution under the Nazi regime ; he was assigned a job in the defense industry. Friedrich Jelinek became mentally ill during the 1950s; During the 1960s he lived at home in an increasingly confused state. He died in 1969 in a psychiatric clinic in complete mental derangement.

The mother took care of Jelinek's education. Jelinek went to a Catholic kindergarten and then to a convent school, which she found extremely restrictive (essay “Going to school is like going to death”). Your striking urge brought on the advice of the nuns in the child psychiatry , the special education department of the Children's Hospital of the University of Vienna, by Hans Asperger was headed, although her behavior was medically in the standard. Apart from that, the mother planned her daughter's career as a musical prodigy, and Jelinek was already taking piano, guitar, flute, violin and viola lessons in elementary school. At the age of 13 she was accepted into the Conservatory of the City of Vienna , where she studied organ , piano , recorder and later also composition . At the same time, she completed her secondary education at the Wirtschaftskundliches Realgymnasium Wien-Feldgasse .

In the tradition of the Viennese group , Jelinek first introduced lower case letters , which she later gave up.

After graduating from high school , the first mental breakdown occurred. Nevertheless, she studied art history and theater studies for a few semesters at the University of Vienna until, in 1967, forced by anxiety, she dropped out of studies and spent a year at home in complete isolation. During this time she began to write; her first poems were printed in magazines and small publishers. In 1967 her volume of poetry, Lisa's Shadow, was published. The first novel bukolit (1968) remained unpublished until 1979. After the death of her father in 1969, she began to recover; she was involved in the 1968 movement and lived for a few months in a left-wing shared apartment a. a. with Robert Schindel and Leander Kaiser .

In 1971 she passed the organ exam at the conservatory with Leopold Marksteiner . Decisive for her further literary work at this time was the confrontation with the theories of Roland Barthes , which she processed in the essay The Endless Innocence . In 1972 she lived with Gert Loschütz in Berlin, but returned to Vienna the following year. In 1974 she joined the KPÖ and was involved in election campaigns and cultural events such as B. in the context of the author's readings under the title Left Word at the Volksstimmefest .

On June 12, 1974, Elfriede Jelinek and Gottfried Hüngsberg married , who was writing film music for Rainer Werner Fassbinder at the time and has been working as a computer scientist in Munich since the mid-1970s.

Great successes, scandals and withdrawals

Since the marriage, Elfriede Jelinek lived alternately in Vienna and Munich. Her literary breakthrough came in 1975 with the novel Die Liebhaberinnen, the Marxist - feminist caricature of a homeland novel. Numerous radio plays were written, especially in the 1970s; At the beginning of the 80s, Die Ausgesperrten appeared as a radio play, a novel and finally also as a film with Paulus Manker (the model is a real murder case in Vienna shortly before Christmas 1965, which was commented on in detail by the media on the occasion of the judgment on May 10, 1966).

The first major Jelinek scandal was brought about in 1985 by the world premiere of Burgtheater . The drama deals with the inadequate coming to terms with the Nazi past in Austria, with the past of actress Paula Wessely at the center. In the public perception, however, the text appeared reduced to personal allusions to prominent followers of the time. In 1983 the novel The Piano Player was published . In the reviews, however, the biographical interpretation predominated; the discussion of the text took a back seat.

In 1989 the next sensational and at the same time Jelinek best-selling work followed with pleasure . Jelinek's examination of the patriarchal power relations, including in the area of ​​sexuality, was scandalized beforehand as “female porn ”.

Jelinek, together with Erika Pluhar , Ernest Bornemann and other intellectuals, stood up for Jack Unterweger , the "port literary" convicted of murder , who was released in 1990 and who - once again at liberty - committed nine more murders.

In 1991 Jelinek, with the two chairmen Susanne Sohn and Walter Silbermayer , left the KPÖ. At the same time, it is in connection with the pluralistic-Marxist science magazine “ Das Argument ”, which is published by Wolfgang Fritz Haug u. a. is issued.

After the theater play Raststätte received a similar reception as Lust and after personal attacks on the author on election posters of the Vienna FPÖ in 1995, Jelinek announced her withdrawal from the Austrian public and issued a ban on the performance of her plays in Austria.

Comeback, polarization and the Nobel Prize

Thus, Plug, Stab und Stangl , the four 1995 Burgenland committed murders of living there Roma theme in Hamburg from Tirzah Bruncken staged and on 12 April 1996 in Malersaal the Deutsches Schauspielhaus premiered. Elfriede Jelinek's return to Vienna was celebrated on January 23, 1997 in the Burgtheater with the premiere of this play, directed by George Tabori . In 1998 there followed the world premiere of the short version of Ein Sportstück , which lasted no less than six hours, directed by Einar Schleef . The long version of the play with the participation of the author premiered on March 14, 1998 there.

Even after the new performance ban, which Jelinek issued in 2000 on the occasion of the formation of the black and blue government in Austria, she made specific reference to current politics; During a Thursday demonstration critical of the government in 2000 on the Ballhausplatz in Vienna, Das Lebewohl. A Haider monologue with the actor Martin Wuttke premiered. In the same year, in the context of the Schlingensief campaign, Please loves Austria , as its “patroness” she u. a. together with Daniel Cohn-Bendit and Gregor Gysi , the puppet theater - montage "I love Austria" , which criticizes the way asylum seekers in Austria is handled.

In 2003, Das Werk , directed by Nicolas Stemann, was premiered at the Akademietheater of the Burgtheater . The production was invited to the Berlin Theatertreffen and won the Mülheim Dramatist Prize . In the same year Christoph Schlingensief staged Bambiland at the Burgtheater . Also in 2003, Olga Neuwirth's musical theater Lost Highway had its premiere, the libretto of which was written by Elfriede Jelinek.

In 2004 the Elfriede Jelinek Research Center was founded in Vienna , a documentation, information and communication center on the author, which is located at the Institute for German Studies at the University of Vienna . That year Jelinek also received the Nobel Prize for Literature .

Since the Nobel Prize

In 2005 the Vienna Burgtheater premiered Babel , a monumental meditation on the Iraq war and the torture scandal in Abu Ghraib , directed by Nicolas Stemann , who in October 2006 also wrote Jelinek's RAF drama Ulrike Maria Stuart and in spring 2009 her business comedy Die Staged contracts of the merchant .

In an interview with the magazine littéraire (2007) on the occasion of the drastic French translation of Die Kinder der Toten , Jelinek repeated the list of her big themes: an oppressive childhood, her polemics against “nature” and “innocence”, her hatred the repressed Nazi legacy of the country. She said that a large part of Austria's literature revolves around the "black hole" Hitler.

From spring 2007 to spring 2008 she published the chapters of her "private novel" Neid one after the other on her website . Jelinek completed this novel, which should not appear as a book but rather remain a pure online text , in May 2008. In printed form it would be around 900 pages. Jelinek is continuing her “deadly sin project”, which she started in 1989 with lust and supplemented in 2000 with greed .

Also in 2008 the play Rechnitz (Der Würgeengel) was released , which was premiered on November 28th at the Münchner Kammerspiele under the direction of Jossi Wieler .

At the end of 2009 Jelinek protested against the now withdrawn honor of the Holocaust denier Walter Lüftl by the Vienna University of Technology with a “golden engineering diploma” for “special scientific merits” and the man's “outstanding professional work”. In this context, she also revealed something of her family history, namely the hostility and difficulties caused by anti-Semites, under which her father, as a " half-Jew " (according to Globke's definition), passed his engineering examination; further that he had to do a kind of scientific forced labor at Semperit and that this fact has burdened him all his life.

In 2012, her work Die Straße. The town. The attack , directed by Johan Simons , was commissioned to mark the 100th year of the founding of the Kammerspiele. It deals with the myth of Munich's Maximilianstrasse .

On December 10, 2013, Human Rights Day , Jelinek is one of five Nobel Prize winners in literature out of 560 writers who protested against systematic surveillance on the Internet by secret services as part of the Stop Watching Us campaign .

In November 2015, the Polish Minister of Culture Piotr Gliński wanted to prevent a performance of Jelinek's Death and the Maiden at the Teatr Polski we Wrocławiu , the Polish Theater in Wroclaw . The reason for this was alleged sexual acts on stage, the staging violated "principles of social coexistence". The spokesman for the Archdiocese of Wroclaw also protested against the appearance of "foreign porn actors" (Czech actors were hired for the play). The premiere took place anyway, some demonstrators tried to block access to the theater. The director of the theater, Krzysztof Mieszkowski , demanded the resignation of the Minister of Culture and accused him of an unprecedented attempt at censorship. However, the theater director lost his job, who was replaced in August 2016. A presenter of the state television broadcaster TVP was also suspended after asking the minister critical questions about the cause.

On the evening that Donald Trump was elected President of the United States, Elfriede Jelinek began to write her piece Am Königsweg . Before Trump's inauguration, she had completed a first draft of the text. The Bayerische Rundfunk produced the radio version of Am Königsweg as German Erstinszenierung in two versions: A version in three parts, which contains the unabridged text, and a self-contained, all the material compressed summary.
