Book Tracing the Heroic Through Gender

Download or read book Tracing the Heroic Through Gender written by Carolin Hauck and published by Ergon Verlag. This book was released on 2018-10-09 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In nahezu allen Gesellschaften und Epochen ist das Heroische vielfach gegendert. Die soziale und kulturelle Produktion des Heroischen ist jedoch nicht ausschließlich mit dem Instrumentarium der Männlichkeitsforschung zu fassen, und ebenso wenig scheint es sinnvoll, Frauen bzw. Weiblichkeit in diesem Zusammenhang lediglich als Ausnahmen zu verstehen. Vielmehr gilt es, den relationalen Charakter ernst zu nehmen. Der vorliegende Band unternimmt erstmals den Versuch, Geschlecht als analytische Kategorie für die Heroismusforschung fruchtbar zu machen. Auf der Basis vielfältiger geisteswissenschaftlicher Ansätze dient diese Kategorie als 'Spurensucherin' (tracer) des Heroischen und als Instrument zur Untersuchung der historischen Bedingungen, medialen und performativen Erscheinungsformen sowie zeiträumlichen Konjunkturen und Transformationen. Diese gilt es, mit Hilfe der Kategorie Geschlecht und unter Nutzung der zugehörigen Eigenschaften neu auszumessen.

Download or read book On Heroes Hero Worship and the Heroic in History written by Thomas Carlyle and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2023-08-12 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Thomas Carlyle's 'On Heroes, Hero-Worship, and the Heroic in History', the author delves into the concept of heroism and examines the idea of hero-worship in different fields such as literature, religion, and politics. Carlyle presents a series of lectures that discuss the qualities that make a hero and how individuals throughout history have been admired and venerated as heroes. Written in a persuasive and engaging prose style, the book reflects Carlyle's belief in the importance of great men and women in shaping the course of human events. Thomas Carlyle, a Scottish philosopher and essayist, was influenced by Romanticism and German idealism, which inspired his fascination with heroes and their impact on society. His personal experiences and observations of the world around him also influenced his writing, making him a significant figure in Victorian literature. I highly recommend 'On Heroes, Hero-Worship, and the Heroic in History' to readers interested in exploring the concept of heroism and its significance in shaping our understanding of history and culture. Carlyle's insightful analysis and thought-provoking ideas make this book a valuable read for anyone interested in the study of great individuals and their influence on society.

This book was released on 2019-11-26 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sartor Resartus, and On Heroes, Hero-Worship, and the Heroic in History is a book by Thomas Carlyle. Carlyle was a Scottish essayist, historian and philosopher. Excerpt: " We come now to the last form of Heroism; that which we call Kingship. The Commander over men; he to whose will our wills are to be subordinated, and loyally surrender themselves, and find their welfare in doing so, may be reckoned the most important of Great Men. He is practically the summary for us of all the various figures of Heroism; Priest, Teacher, whatsoever of earthly or of spiritual dignity we can fancy to reside in a man, embodies itself here, to command over us, to furnish us with constant practical teaching, to tell us for the day and hour what we are to do. He is called Rex, Regulator, Roi: our own name is still better; King, Könning, which means Can-ning, Ableman."

Book Heroic Leadership

Download or read book Heroic Leadership written by Scott T. Allison and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-07-04 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Heroic Leadership is a celebration of our greatest heroes, from legends such as Mahatma Gandhi to the legions of unsung heroes who transform our world quietly behind the scenes. The authors argue that all great heroes are also great leaders. The term ‘heroic leadership’ is coined to describe how heroism and leadership are intertwined, and how our most cherished heroes are also our most transforming leaders. This book offers a new conceptual framework for understanding heroism and heroic leadership, drawing from theories of great leadership and heroic action. Ten categories of heroism are described: Trending Heroes, Transitory Heroes, Transparent Heroes, Transitional Heroes, Tragic Heroes, Transposed Heroes, Transitional Heroes, Traditional Heroes, Transforming Heroes, and Transcendent Heroes. The authors describe the lives of 100 exceptional individuals whose accomplishments place them into one of these ten hero categories. These 100 hero profiles offer supporting evidence for a new integration of theories of leadership and theories of heroism.
