Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: British and US scholars of German literature and culture assess the nature of public communications and the molding of public opinion in historical situations ranging from the late Middle Ages to the 20th century. In particular they look at the representation of the public sphere in literary writing a half century after the German original of Jürgen Habermas' The Structural Transformation of the Public Sphere was published. Their overall themes are publics before the public sphere, thinking about Enlightenment publics, and cultural politics and literary publics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Retabulism is a current of thought that formally asserts that History and Historiography commonly accepted, have been established for centuries on distorted foundations, garbled, or just completely fabricated. These [History and historiography] originate in the Middle Age, then set in printing in the Renaissance, become institutionalized in the quiet lounges during the Enlightenment, are prescribed in the chancelleries in the industrial era ; Finally, they popularized in all media in contemporary era. The Orthodox History [or formal] has long been a first set of "events" chronic collections to strategic goals [political, mercantile, hegemonic, etc.] that uses and abuses of facts that were never produced. Therefore, the Retabulism protests against this spirit of deceit, prefabricated. Beyond preconceived events, the retabulist action describes the circumstances of their production and even, it should reveal what really happened by using all the means that science makes available to discover the reality so the historical truth. Indeed, history is first retabulist knowledge of authentic events, then search their consistency [Harmony logical connection, no contradiction in their sequence, etc.] which exceeds the pure historiographical succession to form a coherent discourse: approximation, comparison, establishing causes chains, etc. The Retabulist shows that history has logic and the latter is that of a reality that is built up to its source and not endlessly reproducing historiographical artificial content. Beyond the dogmatic or historical dogmatism History [History orthodox or official and Historiography], can we glimpse the Retabulism a Counter-History, ie an overhaul of Humanities substrate ?
Download or read book The Amorous Restoration written by Andrew J. Counter and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-09-22 with total page 427 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Louis XVIII returned to the throne in 1814, and again in 1815, France embarked upon a period of uneasy cohabitation between the old and the new. The writers of the age, who included Chateaubriand, Stendhal, Balzac, and Mme de Duras, agreed that they lived at a historical turning point, a transitional moment whose outcome, though still uncertain, would transform the French way of life--beginning with the French way of love. The literary works of the Bourbon Restoration ceaselessly return to the themes of love, sex, and marriage, partly as vital cultural questions in their own right, but also as a means of critiquing the deficiencies of past regimes, negotiating the politics of the present, and imagining the shape of the political future. In the literature of the Restoration, love and politics become entwined in a mutually metaphorical embrace. The Amorous Restoration, the first book in English devoted to literary and cultural life under the last Bourbon kings, considers this relationship in all its richness and many contradictions. Long neglected as a drab historical backwater, the Restoration emerges here as a vibrant era, one rife with sharp cultural and political disagreements, and possessed of an especially refined sense of allusion, discretion, and even humour. Drawing on literature, journalism, political writing, life writing, and gossip, The Amorous Restoration vividly recreates the erotic sensibilities of a pivotal moment in the transition from an amorous old regime to erotic--and political--modernity.

Download or read book Girls in French and Francophone Literature and Film written by Daniela Di Cecco and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2015-06-24 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Girls in French and Francophone Literature and Film is a collection of essays focusing on constructions of girlhood in French and Francophone Literature and Film from the late-Nineteenth to the early-Twenty-First centuries. The volume is firmly anchored at the intersection of French and Francophone studies and the bourgeoning field of girls’ studies. Collectively, the articles demonstrate that girls’ experience, historically viewed as a mere deviation from the “normative” male model, is a product of diverse ideological, cultural and economic factors, and is deserving of its own field of inquiry.

Download or read book Dedicated to the Soul written by Emma Jung and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2025-01-14 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A richly illustrated collection of never-before-seen writings and drawings from the notebooks, portfolios, and personal papers of C. G. Jung’s wife and collaborator Emma Jung (1882–1955) was the life and work partner of one of the great intellectual figures of the twentieth century, yet she kept most of her creative and personal life private. Dedicated to the Soul brings together previously unpublished materials from Jung’s private archive, introducing her voice into the literature of the early psychoanalytical movement and revealing a vibrant inner life and a glowing presence that until now was known only to her family and a handful of patients, students, and friends. This fully annotated collection features journal entries, dream accounts, drawings, paintings, and lectures. It sheds new light on Jung as an early collaborator in the creation of analytical psychology who may have originated the concept of the animus, one of C. G. Jung’s central constructs. It paints a riveting portrait of a dynamic woman who, determined to break free of the conventional world of her upbringing, fearlessly interrogated her social environment and developed her own systems of meaning. With introductory essays that chart Jung’s personal, intellectual, and psychological development, Dedicated to the Soul brings the creative work of this boldly imaginative and irreverent spirit to a wider audience and offers new perspectives on the role of women in the early history of analytical psychology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: BIOGRAPHERS have already told us much about St. Louis De Montfort and the Rosary; now, with this first English edition of THE SECRET OF THE ROSARY, we can listen to Montfort speaking for himself. Drawing upon his own experience as well as upon the experience of others, he endeavors to bring home to the reader, “in a simple and straightforward manner,” as he himself tells us, the authentic message of the Rosary; namely, that it is a veritable school of Christian life. He sees it as including essentially the meditation of the mysteries of the life, death and glory of Jesus and Mary, with a view not only to honoring but especially imitating their virtues as held up to our consideration in each mystery.
