Book A Short History of Classical Scholarship

Download or read book A Short History of Classical Scholarship written by John Edwin Sandys and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-24 with total page 482 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Short History of Classical Scholarship: From the Sixth Century B. C. To the Present Day Rome in 1527. This is followed by the subsequent History of Scholarship in Italy, and by a survey of the successive centuries of that history in France, the Netherlands, England, and Germany, with a brief notice of Greece and Russia, and Of Hungary and Scandinavia. In the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries the nations are reviewed in the following order: Italy, France, the Netherlands, England, and Germany. This order is, however, abandoned in the eighteenth, in which the influence of Bentley on the Greek Scholarship of Holland makes it historically necessary to place England immediately before the Netherlands. It has also been abandoned in the nineteenth, in the case of Germany. Hence the history of the eighteenth century in Germany is immediately followed by that Of the nineteenth in the same country. Finally, the history of the nineteenth century in England is naturally succeeded by that of the United States Of America.

Book Oxford Classics

Download or read book Oxford Classics written by and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2013-12-12 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Oxford, the home of lost causes, the epitome of the world of medieval and renaissance learning in Britain, has always fascinated at a variety of levels: social, institutional, cultural. Its rival, Cambridge, was long dominated by mathematics, while Oxford's leading study was Classics. In this pioneering book, 16 leading authorities explore a variety of aspects of Oxford Classics in the last two hundred years: curriculum, teaching and learning, scholarly style, publishing, gender and social exclusion and the impact of German scholarship. Greats (Literae Humaniores) is the most celebrated classical course in the world: here its early days in the mid-19th century and its reform in the late 20th are discussed, in the latter case by those intimately involved with the reforms. An opening chapter sets the scene by comparing Oxford with Cambridge Classics, and several old favourites are revisited, including such familiar Oxford products as Liddell and Scott's "Greek-English Lexicon", the "Oxford Classical Texts", and Zimmern's "Greek Commonwealth". The book as a whole offers a pioneering, wide-ranging survey of Classics in Oxford.

Book The Reception of Classical German Literature in England  1760 1860  Volume1

Download or read book The Reception of Classical German Literature in England 1760 1860 Volume1 written by John Boening and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-02-11 with total page 600 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The extensive scope of this collection means that this documentary record of the reception of German literature in England is a valuable scholarly resource. One of the most important features of British literary and intellectual history over the past 250 years is the influence of German literature. From the second half of the 18th Century, through the first decades of the 19th, German books and ideas attracted, then gained the attention of a nation. Despite the acknowledged importance of the influence on writers such as Coleridge and Carlyle the subject, though often alluded to, was rarely studied. This collection provides a guidebook through the masses of periodical and allows the English side of the Anglo-German literary relationship to be explored in detail. In order to make the collection useful to scholars with a wide range of interest, it has been divided into three parts: Part 1 is a chronological presentation of commentary on German literature in general. It also contains collective reviews of multiple German authors, notices of important anthologies and reactions to influential works about Germany and its culture. Part 2 collects reviews of 18th Century individual German authors and Part 3 is devoted to the English reception of Goethe and Schiller. Parts 2 & 3 contain cross-references to the collective reviews of Part 1. Containing over 200 British serials and articles and reviews from all the major English literary periodicals, the collection also includes a broad sampling of opinion from the more general magazines, including some popular religious publications.

Book A History of Classical Scholarship  Vol  2

Download or read book A History of Classical Scholarship Vol 2 written by John Edwin Sandys and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-01 with total page 532 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Classical Scholarship, Vol. 2: From the Revival of Learning to the End of the Eighteenth Century (in Italy, France, England, and the Netherlands) The publication of the second and third volumes of the present History of Classical Scholarship brings to a close a work that was begun on New Year's day in 1900. The first volume, extending from the sixth century B.C. to the end of the Middle Ages, had only recently appeared, in October, 1903, when I had the honour of being invited to deliver the Lane lectures at Harvard in the spring of 1905, and the result was published in the same year under the title of Harvard Lectures on the Revival of Learning. The kindly reception accorded to the first volume of the History in the United States of America, as well as in England and on the continent of Europe, led to the publication of a second edition in October, 1906. The volumes now published begin with the Revival of Learning and end with the present day. They include a survey of the lives and works of the leading scholars from the fourteenth to the nineteenth century. Each of the periods embraced in these volumes opens with a chronological conspectus of the scholars of that period, giving the dates of their births and deaths, and, in the last four centuries, grouping them under the nations to which they belong. In the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries the nations are arranged in the following order, - Italy, France, the Netherlands, England, and Germany. This order has, however, been abandoned in the eighteenth, in which the influence of Bentley on Greek scholarship in Holland makes it historically necessary to place England immediately before the Netherlands. It has also, for still more obvious reasons, been abandoned in the nineteenth century in the case of Germany. Hence, in the first part of the third volume, the history of the eighteenth century in Germany is immediately followed by that of the nineteenth in the same country.

Book Classical Scholarship and Its History

Download or read book Classical Scholarship and Its History written by Stephen Harrison and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2021-04-06 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is unusual for a single scholar practically to reorient an entire sub-field of study, but this is what Chris Stray has done for the history of UK classical scholarship. His remarkable combination of interests in the sociology of scholars and scholarship, in the history of the book and of publishing, and (especially) in the detailed intellectual contextualisation of classical scholarship as a form of classical reception has fundamentally changed the way the history of British classics and its study is viewed. A generation ago the history of classical scholarship still consisted largely of accounts of particular scholars and groups of scholars written by other scholars from a broadly biographical and ‘heroic individual’ perspective. In these works scholars often sought to find their own place in the great tradition, choosing to praise or blame those whose work they admired or deprecated, and to identify with particular schools or trends, and there were few attempts to provide a broader and less prosopographical perspective. Almost all the chapters in the volume originated as papers at a conference in honour of the honorand, and have been improved both by discussion there and by the rigorous peer-review process conducted by the two experienced editors. It covers various aspects of classical reception, with a particular focus on the history of scholars, their institutions, and their writings; the main focus is on the UK, but there are also substantial engagements with continental Europe and (especially) the USA; the period covered runs from the Renaissance to the present. The cast contains a number of world-famous names. Unusually, the volume also contains an essay by the honorand, but we are very keen to include this, especially as it focusses on the topic of scholarly collaboration.

Book The Victorians and Germany

Download or read book The Victorians and Germany written by John R. Davis and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2007 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Of all the parts of the world to interest the Victorians, Germany was among the most important. Though less well known today, partly in consequence of the events of the twentieth century, German influences in Britain were strong, and their legacy substantial. This book charts the emergence, development and course of the Victorian interest in Germany. Its multidisciplinary approach, which binds together for the first time the latest research conducted in a variety of areas, shows how a discourse developed in Britain regarding Germany and the Germans which spilled over from one area of life to another, and included some of the most prominent figures in Victorian life. It provides a framework for understanding the causes of the Victorian fascination with Germany, and argues forcefully that the roots of this lay in the processes of modernisation taking place in each place respectively. It also points to the deep impact this had upon the course of British history and reveals how it prepared the ground for the future direction of Anglo-German relations.

Book In Pursuit of Ancient Pasts

Download or read book In Pursuit of Ancient Pasts written by Stephen L. Dyson and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2008-10-01 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: divThe stories behind the acquisition of ancient antiquities are often as important as those that tell of their creation. This fascinating book provides a comprehensive account of the history and development of classical archaeology, explaining how and why artifacts have moved from foreign soil to collections around the world. As archaeologist Stephen Dyson shows, Greek and Roman archaeological study was closely intertwined with ideas about class and social structure; the rise of nationalism and later political ideologies such as fascism; and the physical and cultural development of most of the important art museums in Europe and the United States, whose prestige depended on their creation of collections of classical art. Accompanied by a discussion of the history of each of the major national traditions and their significant figures, this lively book shows how classical archaeology has influenced attitudes about areas as wide-ranging as tourism, nationalism, the role of the museum, and historicism in nineteenth- and twentieth-century art./DIV
