Book The Taming of Romanticism

Download or read book The Taming of Romanticism written by Virgil Nemoianu and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 1984 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Looking at a broad spectrum of writers--English, French, German, Italian, Russian and other East Europeans--Virgil Nemoianu offers here a coherent characterization of the period 1815-1848. This he calls the era of the domestication of romanticism. The explosive, visionary core of romanticism is seen to give way--after the defeat of Napoleon--to an expanded and softer version reflecting middle-class values. This later form of romanticism is characterized by moralizing efforts to reform society, a sentimental yearning for the tranquility of home and hearth, and persistent faith in the individual, alongside a new skepticism, shattered ideals, and consequent irony. Expanding the application of the term Biedermeier, which has been useful in describing this period in German literature, Nemoianu provides a new framework for understanding these years in a wider European context.

Book Monsters in the Italian Literary Imagination

Download or read book Monsters in the Italian Literary Imagination written by Keala Jane Jewell and published by Wayne State University Press. This book was released on 2001 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A culture defines monsters against what is essentially thought of as human. Creatures such as the harpy, the siren, the witch, and the half-human all threaten to destroy our sense of power and intelligence and usurp our human consciousness. In this way, monster myths actually work to define a culture's definition of what is human. In Monsters in the Italian Literary Imagination, a broad range of scholars examine the monster in Italian culture and its evolution from the medieval period to the twentieth century. Editor Keala Jewell explores how Italian culture juxtaposes the powers of the monster against the human. The essays in this volume engage a wide variety of philological, feminist, and psychoanalytical approaches and examine monstrous figures from the medieval to postmodern periods. They each share a critical interest in how monsters reflect a culture's dominant ideologies.

This book was released on 2023-12-31 with total page 1178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: [Italiano]: In un momento così significativo per la storia europea e mondiale, questo volume vuole essere la raccolta di riflessioni scientifiche condotte sui rapporti tra le scelte politiche, le azioni militari e la fisionomia delle città e del paesaggio urbano, sull’evoluzione delle strutture e delle tecniche di difesa, sulla rappresentazione della guerra e dei suoi effetti sull’immagine urbana, sul recupero delle tracce della memoria cittadina. Da una parte il campo delle Digital Humanities apre nuove prospettive per studiare l'immagine della città prima, durante e dopo la guerra, dall’altro le tecnologie digitali impegnano studiosi e ricercatori di varie discipline: in particolare nell’ambito del disegno viene esplorato il ruolo della rappresentazione nella formulazione dei progetti urbani di difesa e nella documentazione degli eventi bellici e delle tracce lasciate dai conflitti, mentre nell’ambito del restauro vengono approfondite le sfide teoriche e pratiche imposte dai danni arrecati dai conflitti ai centri storici, passando in rassegna casi studio, soluzioni e dibattiti relativi alla conservazione del patrimonio urbano coinvolto in azioni di guerra, con un'attenzione particolare all'identità e alla memoria collettiva./[English]: At such a significant moment in European and world history, this volume aims to be a collection of scientific reflections about the relationships between political choices, military actions and the physiognomy of cities and the urban landscape, about the evolution of defence structures and techniques, about the representation of war and its effects on the urban image, and about the recovery of the traces of city memory. On the one hand the field of Digital Humanities opens up new perspectives to study the image of the city before, during and after the war, on the other hand digital technologies engage academics and researchers from various disciplines: In particular, in the area of drawing, the role of representation in the formulation of urban defence projects and in the documentation of wartime events and the traces left behind by conflicts is explored, while in the area of conservation, the theoretical and practical challenges imposed by the damage caused by conflicts to historic centres are explored, reviewing case studies, solutions and debates relating to the conservation of urban heritage involved in wartime actions, with a focus on identity and collective memory.

Book  ARRIVANO GLI SCOUT   Un movimento di pace in una nazione in guerra

Download or read book ARRIVANO GLI SCOUT Un movimento di pace in una nazione in guerra written by Leonardo Castellani and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2014-01-02 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nei primi del '900 si affacciava in Italia un nuovo Metodo Pedagogico che poneva un interrogativo nei confronti di metodi e di didattiche gia preesistenti: lo Scoutismo, che in Italia trovava gia in gran voga il Metodo ""Montessori."" Si diceva che Baden Powell, fondatore di questo strano Metodo, fosse un Alto Ufficiale della Gran Bretagna e che fosse affiliato alla Massoneria: le sue idee, in effetti, ricalcavano quelle dell'illustre pedagogo Ovide Decroly e la sua amicizia con lo scrittore Rudyard Kipling ne doveva essere la ""prova provata."" Era vero? In Italia, nel frattempo, un luminare della medicina, il professor Carlo Colombo, introduceva il suo Corpo Nazionale dei Giovani Esploratori, che aveva la caratteristica di essere laico, facendo infuriare l'ordine della ""Compagnia del Gesu,"" che dal 1850 aveva fondato il periodico ""La Civilta Cattolica."" Questo libro ripropone una storia, chiarendola sotto un taglio filosofico, teologico e pedagogico. Una storia che cosi, non era mai stata raccontata.
