Download or read book The Taming of Romanticism written by Virgil Nemoianu and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 1984 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Looking at a broad spectrum of writers--English, French, German, Italian, Russian and other East Europeans--Virgil Nemoianu offers here a coherent characterization of the period 1815-1848. This he calls the era of the domestication of romanticism. The explosive, visionary core of romanticism is seen to give way--after the defeat of Napoleon--to an expanded and softer version reflecting middle-class values. This later form of romanticism is characterized by moralizing efforts to reform society, a sentimental yearning for the tranquility of home and hearth, and persistent faith in the individual, alongside a new skepticism, shattered ideals, and consequent irony. Expanding the application of the term Biedermeier, which has been useful in describing this period in German literature, Nemoianu provides a new framework for understanding these years in a wider European context.

Download or read book The Intersection of Material and Poetic Economy written by Anna Helm and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2009 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work explores the intersection of the material and poetic economies in Soll und Haben and Der Nachsommer. It demonstrates how the main poetical strategies of the two novels, dichotomization (Soll und Haben) and total economization (Der Nachsommer), are defined by economic themes, structures, and forms. The «economopoetics» of the novels, i.e. the multitude of connections between economics and aesthetics, pervades the texts on three different levels: as content, as representational model, and as literary strategy. Although very different in their treatment of topics relating to business and economics, both novels are driven by narratives parsed with economic expression. The diverging patterns of economopoetics support central commentaries on their underlying realist aesthetics. One important finding is that, in spite of money's apparent absence from the core content of some literary texts, economic relations are inherent in the narrative structure of those texts. The book shows that economopoetics is relevant not only to any extant literature which attempts explicitly to thematize business and economics (such as Soll und Haben), but also to that which does not (such as Der Nachsommer). Economic organizing principles are pervasive signatures of the novel's aesthetic.

Download or read book The Word Unheard written by Martha B. Helfer and published by Northwestern University Press. This book was released on 2011-11-30 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between 1749 and 1850--the formative years of the so-called Jewish Question in Germany--the emancipation debates over granting full civil and political rights to Jews provided the topical background against which all representations of Jewish characters and concerns in literary texts were read. Helfer focuses sharply on these debates and demonstrates through close readings of works by Gotthold Lessing, Friedrich Schiller, Achim von Arnim, Annette von Droste- Hülshoff, Adalbert Stifter, and Franz Grillparzer how disciplinary practices within the field of German studies have led to systematic blind spots in the scholarship on anti-Semitism to date.
Download or read book The Novels of Thomas Bernhard written by Jonathan James Long and published by Camden House. This book was released on 2001 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book's primary emphasis is on Bernhard's later fiction, but it also explicates the early texts of the 1960s and 1970s. The book makes use of insights from recent approaches to fiction that pay attention to what can be termed "narrative dynamics." Earlier studies of Bernhard have tended to remain within the descriptive framework established in narrative studies of the 1950s and 1960s; this book views Bernhard's prose works from a more nuanced vantage point."--BOOK JACKET.
Download or read book The Family in Adalbert Stifter s Moral and Aesthetic Universe written by Karen Pawluk Danford and published by Peter Lang Gmbh, Internationaler Verlag Der Wissenschaften. This book was released on 1991 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study focuses on the role of the family in European bourgeois society and literature in the 19th century through the works of Adalbert Stifter (1805-1868). The traditional patriarchal family was undergoing a crisis arising from the very principles of commercial society, while the emerging middle-classes idealized familiar piety as part of its liberal ideology. Socialist thinkers also attacked the family for its connection to private property and inherent tension with universal humanism. Stifter struggled with the negative and positive aspects of the family in his social essays and the "Studien" and "Bunte Steine" collections. In his greatest work, "Der Nachsommer," he asserts the importance of the family for individual happiness and social cohesion, but at some cost, since the enlightened, aestheticized world he presents there rests on a such rarefied vision of human nature.
Download or read book Species Conservation in Managed Habitats written by Werner Kunz and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2016-08-08 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dieses Praktikerbuch stammt von einem Autor mit langjähriger Erfahrung im Bereich der Ökologie von Insekten und Vögeln und einer herausragenden akademischen Laufbahn in den molekularen Biowissenschaften. Es ist eine willkommene Herausforderung und stellt die weitverbreiteten Ansichten herkömmlicher Umweltpolitik in Frage. Werner Kunz erläutert überzeugend, warum die Aufrechterhaltung einer großen Biodiversität in Europe ganz erheblich von offenen Flächen und karger Vegetation abhängig ist, d. h. Flächen, die weder intensiv nach Aspekten der modernen Landwirtschaft bewirtschaftet noch wieder aufgeforstet werden. Er stellt die weitverbreitete Meinung in Frage, dass Naturschutz mit Artenschutz gleichzusetzen sei, und zeigt, wie bedrohte Tierarten durch ein technisches Design des Lebensraums gerettet werden können. Ein Muss für Umweltbehörden, politische Entscheidungsträger, Ökologen und alle, die Zeuge davon sind, wie aktuell in Zentraleuropa Arten verschwinden.

This book was released on 2020-09-21 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Geohistoricism examines two mid-nineteenth century thinkers – the Austrian writer Adalbert Stifter and the French architect Eugène E. Viollet-le-Duc – who imagined cultural history on the model of earth history: as a history of objects to be restored and worlds to be reconstructed. The nascent field of geology shaped cultural thought; their conservationism, informed by erosion, envisions a future of restorative renewal.

Download or read book Re Interpretations written by J. P. Stern and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1981-09-10 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a reissue of Professor Stern's distinguished study of German prose from the death of Goethe to the heyday of the Wilhelminian Empire. Professor Stern argues that nineteenth-century German prose is characterized by a particular combination of the prophetic and the archaic, of the existential and the parochial, and is only partially and sometimes not at all related to the social and political realities of the age. In this sense, German literature of the period stands apart from the main stream of European realism and has, for that reason, received little attention from the common reader outside its own country. The book contains studies of Goethe, Grillparzer, Büchner, Schopenhauer, Heine, Stifter and Fontane, all of whom re-interpreted the world from points of view other than that of the common and commonly explored social certainties of their age. Consequently, Professor Stern suggests alternative criteria to the common notion of realism with which to asses their work.
