Book Kommunikation und Information im 18  Jahrhundert

Download or read book Kommunikation und Information im 18 Jahrhundert written by Johannes Frimmel and published by Otto Harrassowitz Verlag. This book was released on 2009 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Im Europa des 18. bis 20. Jahrhunderts nimmt die Habsburgermonarchie eine besondere Stellung ein. Unter einer Herrschaft lebten verschiedene Nationen und Ethnien zusammen, mit ihren verschiedenen Sprachen, Religionen und kulturellen Traditionen. Im 18. Jahrhundert veranlasste der absolutistische Staat eine Reihe von Massnahmen, um das Herrschaftsgebiet zu modernisieren und zu vereinheitlichen. Die Forderung des Buchwesens war ein wichtiger Bestandteil dieses von Ernst Wangermann als "Austrian Achievement" bezeichneten Reformprogramms. Innerhalb weniger Jahrzehnte vervielfachte sich die Anzahl der Firmen und die Buchproduktion. Die Erforschung dieses Buchwesens, das Information, Wissen und Bildung uberwiegend vermittelte, stand im Mittelpunkt der Wiener Tagung "Kommunikation und Information im 18. Jahrhundert: Das Beispiel der Habsburgermonarchie", deren Beitrage hier gesammelt vorliegen. Ein Schwerpunkt des Bandes liegt auf dem vielsprachigen und transnationalen Charakter der habsburgischen Buchgeschichte.

Book Die Wende Von Der Aufkl  rung Zur Romantik 1760 1820

Download or read book Die Wende Von Der Aufkl rung Zur Romantik 1760 1820 written by Horst Albert Glaser and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2000 with total page 784 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is the twelfth to date in a series of works in French or English presenting the epochs and movements of a Comparative History of Literatures in European Languages (Histoire Comparée des Littératures de Langues Européennes). The original intention of the editors was to publish a four-volume history of European literature from 1760-1820, and the first of these volumes, Des Lumières au Romantisme. Genres en Vers, appeared as long ago as 1982. The volumes Genres en Prose and Théâtre are still awaited. In their absence the present volume, Epoche im _berblick, attempts a more comprehensive and rigorous treatment of the period and its historiographical problems than was initially planned, providing the reader with an overview of sixty eventful years of European literary history — years in which German Classicism coincided with the birth, initially in Germany and England, of Romanticism. And at the centre of this turbulent period of European intellectual and literary history stands the French Revolution.

Book Women and Literature in the Goethe Era 1770 1820

Download or read book Women and Literature in the Goethe Era 1770 1820 written by Helen Fronius and published by Clarendon Press. This book was released on 2007-04-05 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Goethe era of German literature was dominated by men. Women were discouraged from reading and scorned as writers; Schiller saw female writers as typical 'dilettantes'. But the attempt to exclude did not always succeed, and the growing literary market rewarded some women's determination. This study combines archival research, literary analysis, and statistical evidence to give a sociological-historical overview of the conditions of women's literary production. Highlighting many authors who have fallen into obscurity, this study tells the story of women who managed to write and publish at a time when their efforts were not welcomed. Although eighteenth-century gender ideology is an important pre-condition for women's literary production, it does not necessarily determine the praxis of their actual experiences, as this study makes clear. Using a range of examples from a variety of sources, the real story of women who read, wrote, and published in the shadow of Goethe emerges.

Book The German Historical Novel since the Eighteenth Century

Download or read book The German Historical Novel since the Eighteenth Century written by Daniela Richter and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2016-12-14 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The historical novel is a genre which has enjoyed widespread popularity in Germany from its beginnings in the eighteenth century. At that time, increased literacy among the middle and lower classes had resulted in a greater demand for reading material aimed at a general audience. Because of its educational and entertaining characteristics, the historical novel quickly became a dominant genre among other forms of popular literature. To this day, it constitutes a major sector on the German book market and is, together with popular TV series, documentaries, and museum exhibits, an important part of German Geschichtskultur. This collection of essays looks at aesthetic and thematic continuities, as well as changes in the development of the genre in Germany from the late eighteenth century to the present, and gives insights into the novels’ political and socio-cultural implications. The articles investigate historical novels from writers such as Benedikte Naubert, the ‘mother’ of German historical fiction, nineteenth-century popular writers Georg Ebers and Hermann Sudermann, modern writers such as Alfred Döblin, Hermann Hesse, and Hermann Broch, post-Wende works such as those by Thomas Brussig, Christa Wolf, and Ingo Schulze, and contemporary historical fiction by Sabine Weigand, Eveline Hasler and Petra Durst-Benning.

Book A History of Reading in the West

Download or read book A History of Reading in the West written by Guglielmo Cavallo and published by Univ of Massachusetts Press. This book was released on 1999 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Literature has not always been written in the same ways, nor has it been received or read in the same ways over the course of Western civilization. Cavallo (Greek palaeography, U. of Rome La Sapienza), Chartier (Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales, Paris) and a number of other international contributors, address themes that highlight the transformation of reading methods and materials over the ages, such as the way texts in the Middle Ages were often written with the voice in mind, as they would have been read aloud, or even sung. Articles explore the innovations in the physical evolution of the book, as well as the growth and development of a broad-based reading public.

Book Reading Germany

Download or read book Reading Germany written by Gideon Reuveni and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2006 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By closely examining the interaction between intellectual and material culture in the period before the Nazis came to power in Germany, the author comes to the conclusion that, contrary to widely held assumptions, consumer culture in the Weimar period, far from undermining reading, used reading culture to enhance its goods and values. Reading material was marked as a consumer good, while reading as an activity, raising expectations as it did, influenced consumer culture. Consequently, consumption contributed to the diffusion of reading culture, while at the same time a popular reading culture strengthened consumption and its values. Gideon Reuveni is Director of the Centre for German Jewish Studies at the University of Sussex. He is the co-editor of The Economy in Jewish History (Berghahn, 2010) and several other books on different aspects of Jewish history. Presently he is working on a book on consumer culture and the making of Jewish identity in Europe.

Book Discourse Networks  1800 1900

Download or read book Discourse Networks 1800 1900 written by Friedrich A. Kittler and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 1990 with total page 500 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a highly original book about the connections between historical moment, social structure, technology, communication systems, and what is said and thought using these systems - notably literature. The author focuses on the differences between 'discourse networks' in 1800 and in 1900, in the process developing a new analysis of the shift from romanticism to modernism. The work might be classified as a German equivalent to the New Historicism that is currently of great interest among American literary scholars, both in the intellectual influences to which Kittler responds and in his concern to ground literature in the most concrete details of historical reality. The artful structure of the book begins with Goethe's Faust and ends with Vale;ry's Faust. In the 1800 section, the author discusses how language was learned, the emergence of the modern university, the associated beginning of the interpretation of contemporary literature, and the canonization of literature. Among the writers and works Kittler analyzes in addition to Goethe's Faust are Schlegel, Hegel, E. T. A. Hoffman's 'The Golden Pot', and Goethe's Tasso. The 1900 section argues that the new discourse network in which literature is situated in the modern period is characterized by new technological media - film, the photograph, and the typewritten page - and the crisis that these caused for literary production. Along the way, the author discusses the work of Nietzsche, Gertrude Stein, Mallarme;, Bram Stroker, the Surrealists, Rilke, Kafka, and Freud, among others.
