Book Schiller und die Geschichte

Download or read book Schiller und die Geschichte written by Michael Hofmann and published by Brill Fink. This book was released on 2006 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Zum Rückblick auf das Schillerjahr: Schillers Geschichtsschreibung zwischen Teleologie und kritischer Selbstreflexivität - ein Forschungsfeld, das Literaturwissenschaft und Geschichtswissenschaft gleichermaßen interessiert. Mit dem linguistic turn der Geschichtswissenschaft, mit deren selbstreflexiver Einsicht in die Bedeutung narrativer Strukturen geschichtlichen Wissens, ist auch die Chance zur Neubewertung des Historikers und Geschichtsdramatikers Schiller gekommen. Den Beiträgen geht es um die Verortung der Werke Schillers im europäischen Geschichtsdiskurs, damit auch um die Lektüre der Texte vor dem Hintergrund seiner kritischen Auseinandersetzung mit der Aufklärung. Der interdisziplinäre Ansatz schafft fruchtbare Irritationen: So wird die literaturwissenschaftliche Analyse von den aktuellen Debatten zur Historiographie her neu fundiert, umgekehrt lässt sich die geschichtswissenschaftliche Lektüre der historischen Schriften von aktuellen Beschreibungsmodellen ästhetischer Strukturen inspirieren.

Book A Companion to the Works of Friedrich Schiller

Download or read book A Companion to the Works of Friedrich Schiller written by Steven D. Martinson and published by Boydell & Brewer. This book was released on 2005 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Friedrich Schiller is not merely one of Germany's foremost poets. He is also one of the major German contributors to world literature. The undying words he gave to characters such as Marquis Posa in Don Carlos and Wilhelm Tell in the eponymous drama continue to underscore the need for human freedom. Schiller cultivated hope in the actualization of moral knowledge through aesthetic education and critical reflection, leading to his ideal of a more humane humanity. At the same time, he was fully cognizant of the problems that attend various forms of idealism. Yet for Schiller, ultimately, love remains the gravitational center of the universe and of human existence, and beyond life and death joy prevails. This collection of cutting-edge essays by some of the world's leading Schiller experts constitutes a milestone in scholarship. It includes in-depth discussions of the writer's major dramatic and poetic works, his essays on aesthetics, and his activities as historian, anthropologist, and physiologist, as well as of his relation to the ancients and of Schiller reception in 20th-century Germany.

Book excerpt: I wish to express my gratitude to the following distinguished scholars who have been greatly instrumental in the result of this inquiry. I am most indebted to Professor Peter Gay of Columbia, who has weeded out many errors and ambiguities in the manuscript, and whose vast knowledge, wide interest and profound insights have helped me here, as on previous occasions, to understand the intricacies of the eighteenth century. I should also like to thank Professor Fritz Stern for the keen criticism with which he has read the entire manuscript. A special debt lowe to Dr. Walter Silz who, expert on Schiller as well as on the Romantics, has aided me with great skill, experience and wisdom in the problem of relating both. I further wish to thank Pro fessor Walter Sokel of Stanford and Professor Theodore Ziolkowski of Princeton for their assistance in specific problems. Above all, however, I am profoundly indebted to my wife, without whose infinite care and patience, as well as fine linguistic precision this study could not have been written.

Book Who is this Schiller Now

Download or read book Who is this Schiller Now written by Jeffrey L. High and published by Camden House. This book was released on 2011 with total page 514 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New essays by top international Schiller scholars on the reception of the great German writer and dramatist, emphasizing his realist aspects. The works of Friedrich Schiller (1759-1805) -- an innovative and resonant tragedian and an important poet, essayist, historian, and aesthetic theorist -- are among the best known of German and world literature. Schiller's explosive original artistry and feel for timely and enduring personal tragedy embedded in timeless sociohistorical conflicts remain the topic of lively academic debate. The essays in this volume address the many flashpoints and canonicalshifts in the cyclically polarized reception of Schiller and his works, in pursuit of historical and contemporary answers to Samuel Taylor Coleridge's expression of frightened admiration in 1794: "Who is this Schiller?" The responses demonstrate pronounced shifts from widespread twentieth-century understandings of Schiller: the overwhelming emphasis here is on Schiller the cosmopolitan realist, and little or no trace is left of the ultimately untenable view of Schiller as an abstract idealist who turned his back on politics.

Book Friedrich Von Schiller and the Drama of Human Existence

Download or read book Friedrich Von Schiller and the Drama of Human Existence written by Alexej Ugrinsky and published by Praeger. This book was released on 1988-06-24 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume demonstrates that many scholars and stage directors firmly believe Schiller is very much a writer for the twentieth century. The essays provide a scholarly perspective on Schiller's relevance as a role model for twentieth-century writers and offer in-depth discussions of his idealism, his political views, and his neoclassicism, against the backdrop of the unbalanced and politically turbulent epoch in which he lived. Specific works are examined in light of their particular focus and relevance in drama and history. Part II offers new insights into Schiller's aesthetics, his lyrical subjectivity, his significance for German authors and his relation to such German thinkers as Kant, Jung, and Schlegel.

  • ISBN :
  • Pages : 360 pages

Download or read book Friedrich Schiller written by Paul E. Kerry and published by Peter Lang Limited, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 2007 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Friedrich Schiller (1759-1805) absorbed the fertile ideas of the German Enlightenment, observed first-hand fresh developments in German Romanticism, and fostered one of Europe's last great Classical movements. His insights into the human condition have endured and are as valuable now as they were when he first wrote. His characterisations of human nature remain compelling and his stylistic achievements in language continue to be admired and studied. His writing spanned many genres - poetry, prose, drama, history, philosophy - and includes a rich correspondence with Goethe. In this volume, an interdisciplinary and international group of scholars examines the many sides that Schiller displays. The contributors illuminate key facets of his ideas by organising his writing around his various vocations: his medical training; work as a poet, young dramatist, and author of literary prose; his tenure as a university professor and historian; the mutually productive partnership with Goethe; his philosophical writings; and his final years as a mature playwright. His afterlife, what Schiller has meant to Germans for two centuries, is also considered.
