Download or read book History of Histories of German Literature 1835 1914 written by Michael S. Batts and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 1993-08-05 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Batts analyses the kinds of predisposition, or bias, displayed by the authors of these works, and accounts for the persistence of certain biases over a long period of time. Histories of German literature published in other western European countries, Britain, and North America are also evaluated to determine to what extent, if any, a particular (i.e., non-German) attitude towards German literature is characteristic of a given country. The recognition of personal, religious, national, and other biases is important since the stereotypical image of the people of a given country is strongly influenced by the manner in which their literature is portrayed. Batts concludes that the history of German literature as it developed in the nineteenth century has doubly distorted history. The selection of works for inclusion in the histories on subjective grounds of "quality" conceals the fact that other, "inferior," works may in their time have had a far greater impact. As well, the authors of the histories fail to discuss those works from the past that are still being read.
Download or read book German Literary History Seventeen Seventy Seven to Eighteen Thirty Five written by Klaus J. Bartel and published by Peter Lang Gmbh, Internationaler Verlag Der Wissenschaften. This book was released on 1976 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In German literary history, the period from 1777 to 1835 is one of transition. Beginning with Michael Denis' Einleitung in die Bücherkunde, the first work to separate bibliography from «Literargeschichte», the period ends with Georg Gottfried Gervinus' Geschichte der poetischen Nationalliteratur der Deutschen, generally accepted as the first genuine German history of literature and the first example of the new «Literaturwissenschaft». This study is a bibliography of those works which might be called early German histories of literature, as well as a detailed description of their aims, methods and contents.

Download or read book The Satiric Treatise in Eighteenth century Germany written by Peter E. Carels and published by Peter Lang Group Ag, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 1976 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Germany during the 18th Century several prose satires were produced that resembled each other in their basic fiction: they all pretended to be sober disquisitions on matters of scholarly concern. The writers in each case achieved their satiric effect by perverting the various formal conventions expected of the learned author. This study examines the wide range of distortive techniques employed by the satirists Liscow, Rabener, Riedel and Hess (among others) in order to define the parameters and suggest the course of development of this unique genre.

Download or read book The Bildungsdrama of the Age of Goethe written by Margaret Scholl and published by Peter Lang Group Ag, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 1976 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Growing out and extending beyond the period of Storm and Stress, the Young Man emerged on the stage for the first time as dramatic hero. Professor Scholl advances the thesis that Schiller's Don Carlos, Goethe's Torquato Tasso and Kleist's Prinz Friedrich von Homburg, already recognized as transitional works in the authors' lives, can be viewed as counterparts to the «Bildungsroman». Through historical and literary references from the author's own lives and works, and through detailed analysis of the three plays, she demonstrates that «Bildung» of the title hero was the primary intent of each author. Prof. Scholl concludes by asserting that the processes of growth and self- and com- munity-recognition occurred frequently enough in post Storm and Stress drama to justify their identification with the title «Bildungsdrama».
Download or read book Goethe s R mische Elegien written by Eva Dessau Bernhardt and published by Peter Lang Group Ag, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 1990 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In restoring the two suppressed and neglected elegies to Goethe's first lyric cycle (1788-1790), the author makes clear that their inclusion alters its focus and tone, changes its emphases, and gives it greater continuity. While the protagonist is treated as a fictional persona of the author, art (the poet and creative activity) is posited as a major theme, while the themes of Rome and mythology support, enhance, ennoble, and give classical dimension to the central one, the creative process. Accordingly, a new scheme of organization emerges with Elegy XIII as the axis around which the poetic persona develops. Four elegies stand out as poetological elegies, poems of creative inspiration or artistic achievement.

Download or read book Narrative Structure and the Reader in Wilhelm Raabe s Im Alten Eisen written by Leo A. Lensing and published by Peter Lang Group Ag, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 1977 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author examines the relationship between the narrator and the reader in Wilhelm Raabe's Im alten Eisen (1887) both as an aspect of narrative structure and as a reflection of social and cultural criticism. Using W. Iser's concept of the «implied reader», the interpretation progresses from an investigation of Raabe's actual readers to a Im alten Eisen is linked to its unusual synthesis of the fairy-tale and the novelistic genres and to its parody of the family-journal novels of E. Marlitt.
Download or read book The Reception of Pablo Neruda s Works in the German Democratic Republic written by Bonnie A. Beckett and published by Peter Lang Group Ag, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 1981 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study examines in detail the reception accorded to the works of the Chilean poet Pablo Neruda in the GDR. The initial phase of the transmission process took place in the late 1930s and early 1940s when Neruda established contact with leftwing exiles during the Spanish Civil War, subsequently in Mexico City, and in occupied Germany after World War II. The core chapters correlate the changing cultural and political situation in the GDR with the introduction and critical adumbration of Neruda's output. A separate chapter deals with the stage productions of his works, and the conclusion traces briefly the reception of Neruda's works in the Federal Republic of Germany, highlighting the initial contrast and recent convergence of Marxist and non-Marxist criticism of Neruda.
