This book was released on 2008-05-23 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2008 im Fachbereich Germanistik - Neuere Deutsche Literatur, Note: 1,3, Universität Konstanz, Veranstaltung: Barock, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: „Keine Epoche der europäischen Kulturgeschichte ist so von Widersprüchen geprägt wie das Zeitalter des Barock.“ Während sich zu Zeiten der Renaissance der Mensch seiner Freiheit und seiner schöpferischen Möglichkeiten bewusst wurde, sich erstmals als eigenständiges Individuum zu begreifen schien und sich ein dem Diesseits zugewandtes Lebensgefühl entwickelte, so scheint das Weltbild des barocken Zeitalters dem vollständig entgegen zu stehen. Nahezu jeder Lebensbereich ist von Antithetik geprägt: Ewigkeit und Zeit, Wohlstand und Armut, Aufbau und Zerstörung. Die starken Gegensätze und Spannungen bringen ein großes Vergänglichkeitsbewusstsein in der Gesellschaft zu Tage. Ebenso wirkt die Allgegenwärtigkeit des Todes, ausgelöst durch den 30-jährigen Krieg, der Lebensgier der Menschen entgegen, was sowohl die Entstehung von religiösen Schwärmereien, als auch fanatischem Glauben noch stärker vorantreibt. Die deutsche Barockliteratur versucht das Lebensgefühl der Zeit zu thematisieren und dabei besonders „die polaren Spannungen, [...] das Gegeneinander von üppigem Diesseitsgenuß und fanatischer Jenseitssehnsucht, [...] Körperschwere und Geistesauftrieb“ aufzugreifen und zu diskutieren. Eine besondere Bedeutung kommt hierbei der Bildlichkeit zu. Über die Jahre hinweg entstand eine Vielzahl an Bildern, deren Bedeutungen festgelegt, und die, systematisiert und geordnet, den Dichtern des Barocks zugänglich waren. Sie wurden immer wieder aufgegriffen und in neuen Variationen dargestellt, wobei verbindliche Inhalte und vorgeschriebene Regeln einzuhalten waren. Die bedeutendsten Stilmittel sind dabei Metonymien, Metaphern, Embleme und Allegorien. So wird das 17. Jahrhundert oft auch als „emblematisches“ oder „allegorisches“ Jahrhundert bezeichnet. Auch Andreas Gryphius, der als Lyriker und Dramatiker zu den bedeutendsten deutschen Barockdichtern zu zählen ist, bedient sich in seinen Stücken zahlreicher dieser Stilmittel, wobei dem Emblem als solches, eine besondere Bedeutung zukommt. Im Folgenden soll daher die „allgemeine“ Bedeutung und Funktion, die das Emblem in der Zeit des Barock erhält, herausgearbeitet und einige der bekanntesten Embleme, anhand der von Andreas Gryphius verfassten Märtyrertragödie „Catharina von Georgien“, aus dem Jahre 1657, näher betrachtet, deren Auslegung beschrieben und ihre Funktion hinsichtlich des Stücks, diskutiert werden.

Book Physics and Literature

Download or read book Physics and Literature written by Aura Heydenreich and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2021-12-20 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Physics and Literature is a unique collaboration between physicists, literary scholars, and philosophers, the first collection of essays to examine together how science and literature, beneath their practical differences, share core dimensions – forms of questioning, thinking, discovering and communicating insights.This book advances an in-depth exploration of relations between physics and literature from both perspectives. It turns around the tendency to discuss relations between literature and science in one-sided and polarizing ways. The collection is the result of the inaugural conference of ELINAS, the Erlangen Center for Literature and Natural Science, an initiative dedicated to building bridges between literary and scientific research. ELINAS revitalizes discussion of science-literature interconnections with new topics, ideas and angles, by organizing genuine dialogue among participants across disciplinary lines. The essays explore how scientific thought and practices are conditioned by narrative and genre, fiction, models and metaphors, and how science in turn feeds into the meaning-making of literary and philosophical texts. These interdisciplinary encounters enrich reflections on epistemology, cognition and aesthetics.

Book The Party of Democratic Socialism in Germany

Download or read book The Party of Democratic Socialism in Germany written by Peter Barker and published by Rodopi. This book was released on 1998 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Party of Democratic Socialism in Germany, which includes the papers from the first conference on the PDS in Britain, brings together a range of scholars and politicians from Germany, Britain, France and the USA. It assesses the present position of the party within the German political system shortly before the second Superwahljahr' in Germany. It also examines its relations with other post-communist parties in Europe and evaluates the state of its relations with the other political parties competing for the left-of-centre vote in the new Lander. Above all the volume is concerned with the question as to whether the PDS, as the successor party to the former ruling communist party in East Germany, represents a modern form of socialism or is merely a populist reaction to the particular concerns of eastern Germans after unification. The volume will be of particular interest to students and scholars of German and politics who are concerned with developments in Germany and Europe after the collapse of communism. There are twelve contributions to the volume, six in German and six in English."

Book Early Modern European Diplomacy

Download or read book Early Modern European Diplomacy written by Dorothée Goetze and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2023-12-31 with total page 1039 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New Diplomatic History has turned into one of the most dynamic and innovative areas of research – especially with regard to early modern history. It has shown that diplomacy was not as homogenous as previously thought. On the contrary, it was shaped by a multitude of actors, practices and places. The handbook aims to characterise these different manifestations of diplomacy and to contextualise them within ongoing scientific debates. It brings together scholars from different disciplines and historiographical traditions. The handbook deliberately focuses on European diplomacy – although non-European areas are taken into account for future research – in order to limit the framework and ensure precise definitions of diplomacy and its manifestations. This must be the prerequisite for potential future global historical perspectives including both the non-European and the European world.

  • Author : Ivan Biliarsky
  • Publisher : Cambridge Scholars Publishing
  • Release : 2012-01-17
  • ISBN : 1443837059
  • Pages : 350 pages

Download or read book The Balkans and Caucasus written by Ivan Biliarsky and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2012-01-17 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The overall character of the Black Sea region has been defined over time in various ways. For specialists in economy and trade, it has represented a region at the crossroads of the trade routes between Europe and Asia; for political scientists and historians, it has been a space of confrontation between the great terrestrial and naval powers; for the scholars attentive to its cultural dimensions, it has been a contact zone, a space of interaction between different peoples, religions and cultures. These attempts at a definition all revolve around an essential (and ambivalent) feature of the Black Sea as a factor of connection, a bridge, and at the same time a border, a dividing line between Europe and Asia, between the Baltic and the Mediterranean region. In this fluctuation between the two, the predominance of one over the other (“bridge” or “border”) has depended on a number of factors, first among them the distribution of power relations in the region. This volume, which originated in a symposium hosted by the New Europe College – Institute for Advanced Study in Bucharest, brings together contributions coming from scholars within the Black Sea region and outside it, in an attempt to look at the Balkans and Caucasus from a comparative and multi-disciplinary perspective, highlighting their differences, as well as their common features. The overarching question this volume and the papers included in it address – and leave open – is to what extent we are dealing with a coherent zone, whose past, present and future can legitimately be considered as being traversed by meaningful interrelations, suggesting a shared destiny.
