Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hans-Gert Roloff, Emeritus an der Freien Universität Berlin, hat mit der von ihm initiierten und durchgesetzten Etablierung des Studiengebietes Mittlere Deutsche Literatur grundlegende Impulse für die systematische Erforschung der Zeit zwischen Spätmittelalter und Aufklärung gegeben. Zum 70. Geburtstag von Hans-Gert Roloff präsentiert der vorliegende Band 21 Studien, die der Jubilar zwischen 1967 und 1998 der deutschen Literatur des 16. Jahrhunderts gewidmet hat. In ihrer exemplarischen Repräsentanz stellen diese kleinen Schriften einen Vorlauf zu einer Literaturgeschichte der Mittleren Deutschen Literatur dar. Sie machen deutlich, daß die Literatur dieser Zeit in ihrer ästhetisch-gesellschaftlichen Funktionalität nur aus der Spannung der deutsch-lateinischen Zweisprachigkeit und dem Kontext der europäischen Literatur heraus verstanden werden kann.
Download or read book Fractured Biographies written by Ian Wallace and published by Rodopi. This book was released on 2003 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A physical chemist (Fritz Haber), a photographer (Josef Breitenbach), a cabaret artist (Georg Kreisler), two writers (Otto Alscher and Albin Stuebs), a pioneering scholar in Irish-German studies (John Hennig) and a Celtic philologist (Julius Pokorny) are the focus of this volume. What they have in common is a biography fractured by the Nazis' rise to power in 1933. Six were forced into exile; the life of the seventh, the Romanian-German writer Otto Alscher, shows that even the biography of a Nazi sympathiser could be dislocated by the years of dictatorship. As the previously unpublished letters which are reproduced here show, Fritz Haber, a Nobel prize winner, spent 'his last lonely months' seeking a dignified way to leave the country to which he had once felt the deepest attachment. Although a prominent member of Germany's academic élite, Julius Pokorny had to retire because of his Jewish ancestry in December 1935 and yet was allowed to continue publishing on ethnic themes until his exile in 1943. Albin Stuebs was forced to seek refuge in Prague and later England when his left-wing political convictions made him a certain target for the Nazis. Because of his marriage into a liberal Jewish family, John Hennig had to renounce all hope of an academic career in Nazi Germany and, after his exile to Ireland, struggled in straitened circumstances to support his family while at the same time developing into an unusually prolific scholar. Proof that exile may stimulate creative energy is provided by Josef Breitenbach, whose remarkable biography appears to show that loss and uprootedness may release otherwise undeveloped creative potential. Similarly, the flight of Georg Kreisler from Vienna in 1938 was the start of 'a remarkable voyage of discovery' which saw him grow into a major, if consistently undervalued figure in the world of post-war German cabaret.

Download or read book In Search of the Culprit written by Lukas Rösli and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2021-12-06 with total page 387 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite various poststructuralist rejections of the idea of a singular author-genius, the question of a textual archetype that can be assigned to a named author is still a common scholarly phantasm. The Romantic idea that an author created a text or even a work autonomously is transferred even to pre-modern literature today. This ignores the fact that the transmission of medieval and early modern literature creates variances that could not be justified by means of singular authorships. The present volume offers new theoretical approaches from English, German, and Scandinavian studies to provide a historically more adequate approach to the question of authorship in premodern literary cultures. Authorship is no longer equated with an extra-textual entity, but is instead considered a narratological, inner- and intertextual function that can be recognized in the retrospectively established beginnings of literature as well as in the medial transformation of texts during the early days of printing. The volume is aimed at interested scholars of all philologies, especially those dealing with the Middle Ages or Early Modern Period.
Download or read book Poets Laureate in the Holy Roman Empire written by John Flood and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2011-09-08 with total page 2800 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Petrarch’s revival of the ancient practice of laureation in 1341 led to the laurel being conferred on poets throughout Europe in the later Middle Ages and the Early Modern period. Within the Holy Roman Empire, Maximilian I conferred the title of Imperial Poet Laureate especially frequently, and later it was bestowed with unbridled liberality by Counts Palatine and university rectors too. This handbook identifies more than 1300 poets laureated within the Empire and adjacent territories between 1355 and 1804, giving (wherever possible) a sketch of their lives, a list of their published works, and a note of relevant scholarly literature. The introduction and various indexes provide a detailed account of a now largely forgotten but once significant literary-sociological phenomenon and illuminate literary networks in the Early Modern period. A supplementary Volume 5 of Poets Laureate in the Holy Roman Empire. A Bio-bibliographical Handbook will be published in June 2019.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since its founding in 1943, Medievalia et Humanistica has won worldwide recognition as the first scholarly publication in America to devote itself entirely to medieval and Renaissance studies. Since 1970, a new series, sponsored by the Modern Language Association of America and edited by an international board of distinguished scholars and critics, has published interdisciplinary articles. In yearly hardcover volumes, the new series publishes significant scholarship, criticism, and reviews treating all facets of medieval and Renaissance culture: history, art, literature, music, science, law, economics, and philosophy. Volume 47 showcases a variety of transnational and translingual perspectives, analyzing the works of humanist authors from across Europe, and how language can affect the interpretation of the literature. It expands beyond the Eurocentric appraisal of medieval works and takes into consideration a broader response.

Download or read book The Faustian Century written by James M. Van der Laan and published by Camden House. This book was released on 2013 with total page 414 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New essays revealing the enduring significance of the story made famous in the 1587 Faustbuch and providing insights into the forces that gave the sixteenth century its distinct character. The Reformation and Renaissance, though segregated into distinct disciplines today, interacted and clashed intimately in Faust, the great figure that attained European prominence in the anonymous 1587 Historia von D. Johann Fausten. The original Faust behind Goethe's great drama embodies a remote culture. In his century, Faust evolved from an obscure cipher to a universal symbol. The age explored here as "the Faustian century" invested the Faustbuch and its theme with a symbolic significance still of exceptional relevance today. The new essays in this volume complement one another, providing insights into the tensions and forces that gave the century its distinctcharacter. Several essays seek Faust's prototypes. Others elaborate the symbolic function of his figure and discern the resonance of his tale in conflicting allegiances. This volume focuses on the intersection of historical accounts and literary imaginings, on shared aspects of the work and its times, on concerns with obedience and transgression, obsessions with the devil and curiosity about magic, and quandaries created by shifting religious and worldlyauthorities.

Download or read book Le donne Medici nel sistema europeo delle corti XVI XVIII secolo written by Giulia Calvi and published by Edizioni Polistampa. This book was released on 2008 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I contributi raccolti delineano una storia completa della dinastia medicea attraverso le sue donne. Questa dimensione femminile corale costruisce una sorta di storia parallela non solo della dinastia, dalle sue origini al tramonto, ma della costruzione stessa dello Stato, sia attraverso il nesso imprescindibile con la famiglia, sia attraverso una riflessione che integra il ciclo di vita delle donne al mutare dei loro ruoli di potere e, dunque, al costituirsi della sfera di governo. Le donne Medici vengono colte qui attraverso la circolazione e lo scambio, oltre i confini dei singoli Stati: quelle che si allontanano come spose e quelle, &"straniere a corte&", che giungono a Firenze per entrare nella dinastia. La circolazione delle donne nel sistema europeo delle corti inserisce la vicenda della dinastia medicea e la storia stessa di Firenze nel cuore della storia d&'Europa. L&'opera unisce i contributi della storia dell&'arte, della letteratura, della storia religiosa, sociale e politica, della cultura materiale, della storia delle donne e di genere. L&'apporto documentario è imponente e focalizzato sulle corrispondenze femminili. La struttura del libro, quella del ritratto di gruppo, evita il ricorso alla biografia e getta luce sull&'entourage entro cui le donne Medici hanno operato.
