Book Main Currents in Nineteenth Century Literature   2  The Romantic School in Germany

Download or read book Main Currents in Nineteenth Century Literature 2 The Romantic School in Germany written by Georg Brandes and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2019-12-03 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a comprehensive guide to German Romanticism, which was the dominant intellectual movement of German-speaking countries in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, influencing philosophy, aesthetics, literature, and criticism. Compared to English Romanticism, the German variety developed relatively early, and, in the opening years, coincided with Weimar Classicism. In contrast to the seriousness of English Romanticism, the German variety of Romanticism notably valued wit, humor, and beauty. The early German Romantics strove to create a new synthesis of art, philosophy, and science, by viewing the Middle Ages as a simpler period of integrated culture; however, the German Romantics became aware of the tenuousness of the cultural unity they sought. Late-stage German Romanticism emphasized the tension between the daily world and the irrational and supernatural projections of creative genius. In particular, the critic Heinrich Heine criticized the tendency of the early German Romantics to look to the medieval past as a model of unity in art and society.

Book Friedrich Leopold Graf Zu Stolberg and the German Romantics

Download or read book Friedrich Leopold Graf Zu Stolberg and the German Romantics written by Eleoma Joshua and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2005 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examines the life and works of the poet Friedrich Leopold Graf zu Stolberg (1750-1819). It begins with an analysis of Stolberg's essays on poetic expression in relation to Romantic thinking, and the impact of his poetic style on Novalis's early poetry. Stolberg's aesthetic education in Italy is examined as well as his challenge to the idea that classical sculpture was always the pinnacle of beauty and that the culture of antiquity was the highest form of humanity. The detection of melancholy in Greek sculpture, which arises from the transfer of anxieties about redemption from the artist to the artefact, affected his response and detracted from the beauty of the sculpture. This view amounted to an attack on Goethe and Schiller, as it identified the issue of salvation and death as a weakness in the classical paradigm. The picture of Italy that Stolberg offered was overshadowed by a crisis of confidence in the aesthetic insights both of Winckelmann and of Lessing and was also the basis for his reception of Raphael and Michelangelo. Stolberg arrived at a response to Renaissance art and artists that marginally predates the early German Romantic worship of artists in the 1790s. The book concludes with a discussion of Stolberg's support of Romantic politics and Romantic conversions.

  • Pages : 235 pages

Download or read book European Romanticism written by Warren Breckman and published by Hackett Publishing. This book was released on 2015-03-05 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The introductory essay is superb, the best short introduction to Romanticism I know. It is comprehensive, covering both the wide range of spheres that Romanticism affected--literature, philosophy, art, music, politics, nationalism--and the broad spectrum of European countries in which it was an influential cultural current. It offers a distinctive, unified interpretation of Romanticism that nonetheless does justice to the complexities of Romantic ideas." --Gerald Izenberg, Washington University in St. Louis

Book Religionizing  Romanizing Romantics

Download or read book Religionizing Romanizing Romantics written by Siegmar V. Hellerich and published by Peter Lang Gmbh, Internationaler Verlag Der Wissenschaften. This book was released on 1995 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study investigates the causes of the renewed yearning for spiritual values and highlights the growing sympathies for Catholicism even by Protestants after Rationalism and the French Revolution had dealt a seemingly mortal wound to the papacy. Alone amidst the ruins of a world which had passed away, the unchangeable Church appeared the sole bulwark against the revolutionary egalitarianism. Above all, the progress of the Catholic revival of the 19th century was made possible by the Romantic school founded in 1798 by a few extremely gifted Protestant idealists. Impressed by the aesthetic aspect of the Roman rite but without interest in the doctrines of salvation these soi-disant prophets and maturing gods were more hypocritical but no more virtuous and no closer to believing in the Catholic dogmas than were the worshippers of the Goddess of Reason, whom they fought.

Book Democracy and the Divine

Download or read book Democracy and the Divine written by Alexandra Aidler and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2019-10-10 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advancing the thesis that a contract between the political members of a community must lead to the highest form of social inclusion, Thomas Hobbes’s Leviathan (1651) has provided the groundwork for democracies around the world. Yet, Hobbes also states that this contract can only be upheld by a strong sovereign whose authority is derived from God. How can a democracy be defined, then, as truly inclusive when it essentially grows out of a theocracy that thinks about human beings in terms of “reduction”? In Democracy and the Divine: The Phenomenon of Political Romanticism Alexandra Aidler argues that despite modern democracy’s problematic heritage, one should not abandon its claims to religion. Articulating a democracy that is based on the religious principle of giving oneself to another, Aidler develops a political theology of democracy that is built upon two traditions in political thought that have rarely been examined thus far side by side for their contributions to this field: German Romanticism, as exemplified by Franz von Baader and Friedrich Schlegel, and the “theological turn” in French philosophy, as represented by Jacques Derrida and Jacques Rancière.

Book The Contribution of German Catholicism

Download or read book The Contribution of German Catholicism written by Alexander Dru and published by New York : Hawthorn Books. This book was released on 1963 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author discusses the main events of Catholic progress in Germany from 1800 through 1918, emphasizing the cultural and intellectual milieux rather than political events. This independent development of the Church in Germany, which began with the French Revolution, forms a vital chapter in the history of the universal Church. As the author states, "the German Church showed its continued vitality by recognizing the cultural revolution as the necessary preliminary to fulfilling its mission. Where the Church of France settled into reaction, the Church of Germany experienced a spiritual and intellectual renaissance because it was independent of the relations of Church and state." The important historical figures and their contributions to this singular yet far-reaching change are treated thoroughly and cogently. Events such as the Kulturkampf, the Syllabus of Errors, the influence of the Romantics, and the famous Munich Congress of 1863 are analyzed in detail. The final section deals with the early twentieth century and shows how the traditional unity within the German Church was to be transformed into a new organic unity.
