Book Receptions of Antiquity

Download or read book Receptions of Antiquity written by Jan Nelis and published by Academia Press. This book was released on 2011 with total page 379 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This volume presents a series of papers which cover the general theme of the reception of antiquity, a topic which has in recent years become a discipline in itself, or what some might call a 'cross-discipline'. Indeed the Nachleben of the (culture of) classical antiquity, and of antiquity as a whole, manifests in a number of diverse domains, opening up the field of reception studies to scholars from disciplines other than Classics. This collection of papers illustrates this diversity, uniting as it does original research by scholars from a variety of disciplines: classicists, historians, theatre historians, architectural historians, psychologists, archaeologists, artists, and more, all of whom have treated some aspect of the so-called 'classical tradition' by means of their own individual approaches, leading to a volume rich and dense in themes and methodologies. 'Receptions of antiquity' has been written by friends of Freddy Decreus, in honour of his career, and in celebration of his thought."--

Book Brill   s Companion to the Classics  Fascist Italy and Nazi Germany

Download or read book Brill s Companion to the Classics Fascist Italy and Nazi Germany written by Helen Roche and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2017-10-17 with total page 485 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first ever guide to the manifold uses and reinterpretations of the classical tradition in Mussolini’s Italy and Hitler’s Germany, Brill’s Companion to the Classics, Fascist Italy and Nazi Germany explores how political propaganda manipulated and reinvented the legacy of ancient Greece and Rome in order to create consensus and historical legitimation for the Fascist and National Socialist dictatorships. The memory of the past is a powerful tool to justify policy and create consensus, and, under the Fascist and Nazi regimes, the legacy of classical antiquity was often evoked to promote thorough transformations of Italian and German culture, society, and even landscape. At the same time, the classical past was constantly recreated to fit the ideology of each regime.

Book From Ancient to Modern

Download or read book From Ancient to Modern written by Jan Nelis and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book analyses a manifestation of the use of identitarian discourse in politics, i.e the role of the concept of 'Romanness' or romanità under Italian fascism. The author explores a wide selection of written press published during the ventennio fascista, and evidences that romanità, conceived as a process of identification between ancient (Roman) and fascist Italy, was a nearly passe partout concept, which could be introduced whenever the most diverse aspects of fascist ideology in some way seemed to converge with Roman antiquity. Rather than focusing on romanità's singularity under fascism, this study highlights the relative ease with which this long-existing concept was used and converted. On a more abstract level, the study touches upon the problem of consensus, as it clearly shows how intellectuals were in part responsible for the diffusion and development of one of themajor and most omnipresent myths promoted by the fascist regime.

Book From Whitney to Chomsky

Download or read book From Whitney to Chomsky written by John E. Joseph and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2002-12-18 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is ‘American’ about American linguistics? Is Jakobson, who spent half his life in America, part of it? What became of Whitney’s genuinely American conception of language as a democracy? And how did developments in 20th-century American linguistics relate to broader cultural trends?This book brings together 15 years of research by John E. Joseph, including his discovery of the meeting between Whitney and Saussure, his ground-breaking work on the origins of the ‘Sapir-Whorf Hypothesis’ and of American sociolinguistics, and his seminal examination of Bloomfield and Chomsky as readers of Saussure. Among the original findings and arguments contained herein: • why ‘American structuralism’ does not end with Chomsky, but begins with him; • how Bloomfield managed to read Saussure as a behaviourist avant la lettre; • why in the long run Skinner has emerged victorious over Chomsky; • how Whorf was directly influenced by the mystical writings of Madame Blavatsky; • how the Whitney–Max Müller debates in the 19th century connect to the intellectual disparity between Chomsky’s linguistic and political writings.

Book They Called Me Cassandra

Download or read book They Called Me Cassandra written by Genevieve Tabouis and published by Da Capo Press. This book was released on 1942 with total page 462 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This is the autobiography of France's foremost newspaper correspondent, whose influence has been more far reaching than that of Lazareff, whose Deadline is on Random House list. She had access to all the great men and events of the past twenty years, in France and other foreign capitals. With deceptive fragility of demeanour, she called the Axis shots before they fell, time and again presaging the surrender of the democracies. She struck out at Hitler and was denounced by him. This traces her career from reporter at the League to Foreign Editor of L'Oeuvre, hers is a career unequalled by any other woman journalist. Through years of intricate party and power politics, she came in contact with Briand, Stresemann, Laval, Bruening, Blum, Litvinov, Von Papen, Weygand, Gayda, Bonnet and others."--Kirkus Reviews.
