Es ist nicht nur der Artikel „ der“ („der“ Mensch), sondern vielmehr sein „böser“ Kern, das Suffix „ – er“. France Lifts Its Long Ban On Henry Miller's 'Sexus,'" New York Times, November 20, 1968. By subscription only. The three books in the trilogy were initially banned in the United States, published only in France and Japan. [5] [11] Their American publication followed the U.S. Supreme Court's 1964 decision that the also-banned Tropic of Cancer was a work of literature and therefore should not be banned. [12] The meaning "a part cut off or separated from the rest" is from early 15c. That of "a drawing representing something as if cut through" is from 1660s. From 1550s in English in the meaning "act of cutting or dividing," a sense now rare or archaic and preserved in some medical phrases, most notably Caesarian section. The meaning "a subdivision of a written work, statute, etc." is from 1570s. Genus kommt aus dem Lateinischen und hat dort die Bedeutung „Art, Rasse“. Hätte man die Genera des Deutschen nicht als „männlich, weiblich, sächlich“ benannt, sondern als „a, b, c“, „1, 2, 0“ oder sonstwie, würden wir wahrscheinlich gar nicht um das generische Maskulinum streiten und die Aktivistin Luise F. Pusch würde nicht behaupten, Deutsch sei eine „ Männersprache“, die nach Ansicht von Senta Trömel-Plötz in eine „ Frauensprache“ umgewandelt werden müsse.Also especially the sex"the female sex, womankind" (1580s). The meaning "sexual intercourse" ( have sex) is by 1906; the meaning "genitalia" is suggested by 1933 ("Fumes of Formation") and probably is older. Sex symbol by 1871 in anthropology; the first person to whom the term was applied seems to have been Marilyn Monroe (1959). Sex-kitten is attested by 1954 (Brigitte Bardot). Sex object is by 1901, originally in psychology; sex appeal is attested by 1904. Wer ernsthaft glaubt, das Rollenverständnis von Frauen in der heutigen Gesellschaft dadurch ändern zu können, indem er auch sprachlich permanent auf den weiblichen Sexus hinweist, der sollte „dem“ Mädchen bereits im Mutterleib das weibliche Genus „die“ zuweisen. Da „die Mädchen“ aber bereits für die Pluralform reserviert ist, wie wäre es mit „ die Junge“ (als Pendant zu „ der Junge“)? Warum ist eigentlich noch niemand darauf gekommen. Das Wort „mädchenhaft“ müssten wir jedoch dann aus unserem Wortschatz streichen, zu dumm nur, dass „jungenhaft“ dafür ein schlechter Ersatz wäre. Plexus (1953), the second volume, continues with the story of Miller's marriage to Mona, and covers Miller's attempts to become a writer after leaving his job at the Cosmodemonic Telegraph Company. It was first published in English in 1953 by Olympia Press as a two-volume set. [7] Nexus [ edit ] The Rosy Crucifixion, a trilogy consisting of Sexus, Plexus, and Nexus, is a fictionalized account documenting the six-year period of Henry Miller's life in Brooklyn as he falls for his second wife June and struggles to become a writer, leading up to his initial departure for Paris in 1928. The title comes from a sentence near the end of Miller's Tropic of Capricorn: "All my Calvaries were rosy crucifixions, pseudo-tragedies to keep the fires of hell burning brightly for the real sinners who are in danger of being forgotten." [1] Sexus [ edit ] Henry Miller, Preface to Big Sur and the Oranges of Hieronymus Bosch, New York: New Directions, 1957, p. ix.

The New York Times stated, "Miller uses licentious sex scenes to set the stage for his philosophical discussions of self, love, marriage and happiness." [3] Miller had in mind to write a second volume of Nexus, and made several attempts to complete it. It would have covered his time in France with Mona, their return to New York, and his return to Paris on his own, concluding with him writing the opening lines of Tropic of Cancer at 18 Villa Seurat. He made several attempts to write the book before ultimately abandoning the undertaking. [8] [9] A rough draft of the abandoned novel, Paris 1928 (Nexus II), an account of his 1928 trip to Paris with Mona, was first published in English in 2012. [10] Publication [ edit ] Trotzdem möchte ich zur Genus-Sexus-Beziehung hier auch eine Gegenstimme zu Wort kommen lassen. Die Sprachwissenschaftlerin Damaris Nübling verneint die Unabhängigkeit zwischen linguistischem Genus und biologischem Sexus und führt u.a. folgendes Beispiel an: Die meisten Menschen würden es so sehen, dass zwar eine Giraffe trächtig sein kann, nicht aber ein Löwe, für diese biologische Funktion muss die Form „Löwin“ herhalten. Ein „Löwe“ wird daher als männlich verstanden. Klingt plausibel, und ich widerspreche nicht. Nur möchte ich Frau Nübling entgegenhalten, was sich wohl die meisten Menschen, und sicher auch Frau Nübling selbst, unter einem Huhn vorstellen. Ich wette, dass es das Eier-legende Huhn ist, also die „Henne“ und nicht der „Hahn“, obwohl doch beide Hühner sind. For the raw sex appeal of the burlesque "shows" there is no defense, either. These "shows" should be under official supervision, at the least, and boys beneath the age of eighteen forbidden, perhaps, to attend their performance, just as we forbid the sale of liquors to minors. [Walter Prichard Eaton, "At the New Theatre and Others: The American Stage, Its Problems and Performances," Boston, 1910] Peter Winnemöller hat die Konsequenz der Gleichsetzung von Genus und Sexus so zusammengefasst: „ Wer mangels Bildung wirklich denkt, grammatikalisches und natürliches Geschlecht in jedem Falle gleichsetzen zu wollen, macht den Mond zu einem Macho und diskriminiert das Mädchen als Sache.“It is curious that the Anglo-Saxon language seems to have had no abstract term for sex, which was expressed only severally as manhood or womanhood. [Thomas Wright, note to "Anglo-Saxon and Old English Vocabularies," 1884] 영어에서는 성에 대한 추상적인 용어가 없었던 것이 흥미롭다. 성은 남성성 또는 여성성으로만 개별적으로 표현되었다. [토마스 라이트, "앵글로색슨어와 올드 영어 어휘집," 1884] Sexus (1949), the first volume, describes the break-up of Miller's first marriage to Maude as he meets, falls in love with and marries his second wife, the captivating and mysterious dancer Mona (June). All the while, he feels guilty for leaving Maude, and becomes more attracted to her following their divorce. At the beginning of Sexus, Miller is 33 years old. June is at first called Mara, but at the beginning of chapter 8, and for the remainder of the trilogy, her name is changed to Mona. Miller states that this is under the influence of his friend Dr. Kronski, and that the name change accompanied "other, more significant changes." She is one who has changed many details of her life: "her name, her birthplace, her mother, her upbringing, her friends, her tastes, even her desires." [2] the sex"여성성, 여성" (1580년대)을 의미한다. "성교" ( have sex)의 의미는 1906년에 등장했으며, "생성의 연기"로 추정되며 아마도 더 오래되었다. Sex symbol는 1871년에 인류학에서 처음 사용된 것으로 보인다. 이 용어가 적용된 첫 번째 사람은 Marilyn Monroe (1959)인 것 같다. Sex-kitten은 1954년에 등장했다 (Brigitte Bardot). Sex object은 1901년에 심리학에서 처음 사용되었으며, sex appeal은 1904년에 등장했다. For the raw sex appeal of the burlesque "shows" there is no defense, either. These "shows" should be under official supervision, at the least, and boys beneath the age of eighteen forbidden, perhaps, to attend their performance, just as we forbid the sale of liquors to minors. [Walter Prichard Eaton, "At the New Theatre and Others: The American Stage, Its Problems and Performances," Boston, 1910] 버레스크 "쇼"의 성적 매력에 대해서는 변명할 수 없다. 이러한 "쇼"는 적어도 공식적인 감독 아래에 있어야 하며, 18세 미만의 소년들은 그들의 공연에 참석하는 것을 금지해야 한다. 우리가 미성년자에게 술을 판매하는 것을 금지하는 것처럼 말이다. [월터 프리차드 이튼, "뉴 극장과 기타: 미국 무대, 그 문제와 공연," 보스턴, 1910]
