Book From Goethe to Gundolf

Download or read book From Goethe to Gundolf written by Roger Paulin and published by Open Book Publishers. This book was released on 2021-08-24 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Goethe to Gundolf: Essays on German Literature and Culture is a collection of Roger Paulin’s groundbreaking essays, spanning the last forty years. The work represents his major research interests of Romanticism and the reception of Shakespeare in Germany, but also explores a broader range of themes, from poetry and the public memorialization of poets to fairy stories - all meticulously researched, yet highly accessible. As a comprehensive examination of German literary history in the period 1700-1900, the collection not only includes accounts of the lives and work of Goethe, Schiller, the Schlegels, and Gundolf (amongst others), serving to nuance our understanding of these figures in history, but also considers diverse (and often underexplored) topics, from academic freedom to the rise of travel literature. The essays have been reformulated, corrected, and updated to add references to recent works. However, the core foundations of the originals remain, and just as when they were first published, the value of these essays – to researchers, students, and all those who are interested in German literary history – cannot be overstated.

Book More than One Picture

    Book Details:
  • Author : Felix Thürlemann
  • Publisher : Getty Publications
  • Release : 2019-11-26
  • ISBN : 1606066250
  • Pages : 230 pages

Download or read book More than One Picture written by Felix Thürlemann and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 2019-11-26 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thought-provoking and original book argues that hyperimages—calculated displays of images on walls or pages—have played a major role in the history of art. In exhibitions, illustrated art books, and classrooms, artworks or their photographic reproductions are arranged as calculated ensembles that have their own importance. In this volume, Felix Thürlemann develops a theory of this type of image use, arguing that with each new gathering of images, an art object is reinterpreted. These hyperimages have played a major role in the history of art since the seventeenth century, and the main actors of the art world are all hyperimage creators. In part because the hyperimage is not permanently available, this interplay of images has been largely unexplored. Through case studies organized within three groups of producers—collectors and curators, art historians, and artists—Thürlemann proposes a theory of the hyperimage, explores the semiotic nature of this plural image use, and discusses the arrangement and interpretation of such pictures in order to illuminate the phenomenon of Western image culture from the beginning of the seventeenth century until today. His analysis of the ways in which images are assembled and associated provides a crucial context for the explosive present-day deployment of images on digital devices.

Book The Marketplace of Print

Download or read book The Marketplace of Print written by Alexandra Halasz and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1997-09-11 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Early modern pamphlets serve as an important vehicle for examining print culture, particularly the historical entanglement between the technology of print and a developing capitalism. Attention to the controversies surrounding their circulation reveals that pamphlets became a focus for anxieties about print culture in general. Alexandra Halasz combines close readings of pamphlets by Robert Greene, Thomas Nashe, Gabriel Harvey, Thomas Deloney and John Taylor, among others, with a discussion of the history and deployment of print technology and its specifically English organization as a monopoly. Taking account of the theoretical and historical issues surrounding textual property, authorship and publicity, The Marketplace of Print, first published in 1997, is both a work of historical recovery and a reflection on the ongoing problems of the relationship between the marketplace and the public sphere.

Book BildBewegungen ImageMovements

Download or read book BildBewegungen ImageMovements written by Pirkko Rathgeber and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wie sind Bild und Bewegung miteinander verflochten? Wie wird dieses Verhältnis sichtbar? Der vorliegende Sammelband nimmt unterschiedliche Bildtypen, ihre Bewegungen und ihre Wahrnehmung als Einsatzpunkt. Ausgehend von verschiedenen Konzepten der Bewegung wird das Bewegungspotenzial der Bilder aufgezeigt, wobei das Bewegliche an vermeintlich unbewegten Bildern ebenso befragt wird wie Modi der Stillstellung bei Bewegtbildern. Dem geht die Überlegung voraus, Zeitlichkeit als eine Grunddisposition des Bildes zu diskutieren. Die Beiträge spüren den Bedingungen der Wahrnehmung von Bewegung im und am Bild nach und untersuchen die Auswirkungen von Bildbewegungen auf unsere Konstruktion und Wahrnehmung von Welt.

Book Sitte  Hegemann and the Metropolis

Download or read book Sitte Hegemann and the Metropolis written by Charles Bohl and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2009-06-02 with total page 717 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These essays, from leading names in the field, weave together the parallels and differences between the past and present of civic art. Offering prospects for the first decades of the twenty-first century, the authors open up a broad international dialogue on civic art, which relates historical practice to the contemporary meaning of civic art and its application to community building within today’s multi-cultural modern cities. The volume brings together the rich perspectives on the thought, practice and influence of leading figures from the great era of civic art that began in the nineteenth century and blossomed in the early twentieth century as documented in the works of Werner Hegemann and his contemporaries and considered fundamental to contemporary practice.

  • Author : Jane Kelsey
  • Publisher : Bridget Williams Books
  • Release : 2013-05-01
  • ISBN : 1927131901
  • Pages : 89 pages

Download or read book Hidden Agendas written by Jane Kelsey and published by Bridget Williams Books. This book was released on 2013-05-01 with total page 89 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ‘Forget the label “free trade agreement”. The TPPA, under negotiation between New Zealand, the USA and ten other countries, is a direct assault on our right to decide our own future.’ In this hard-hitting BWB Text, Professor Jane Kelsey picks apart the current negotiations surrounding the proposed Trans-Pacific Partnership Agreement (TPPA) and comes to some disturbing conclusions. Such a treaty, she says in this new work, has little credible economic rationale but could have potentially dangerous effects on our ability to decide for ourselves how we address the economic, environmental, social and Treaty challenges of the twenty-first century. At a time of constitutional review, the secrecy surrounding the TPPA negotiations raises hard questions about the future shape of New Zealand.
