Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In fünfzehn Kapiteln fragt diese Studie nach im wesentlichen literarischen und musikalischen Erscheinungsformen einer in der Romantik maßgeblich entwickelten poetischen Denkweise, die hier als eine pluralektische vorgestellt wird. Im Romantischen kristallisiere sich die 'Lektüre des Heterogenen', wie Novalis notierte. Er war es auch, der eine 'Theorie der Berührung' und des Übergangs entwerfen wollte. Noch für die in der Forschung vergleichsweise weniger beachtete Spätromantik, der im dritten Teil dieses Buches besondere Aufmerksamkeit zuteil wird, blieb dieser Ansatz verbindlich. Der unverwechselbare Beitrag der Romantik zur Ideengeschichte, so die Hauptthese dieser Arbeit, liegt in ihrer den dialektischen Schematismus entgrenzenden Pluralektik, die sich mit mythologischer Motivik verband, im Roman exponierte und in der poetischen Musik selbst besang.

Download or read book Robert Schumann and Richard Wagner as Music Critics written by Tobias Taddeo Hermans and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2024-01-29 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The music reviews of Robert Schumann and Richard Wagner are central documents of 19th-century German musical culture. This book takes a closer look at the way these texts were written and explores the significant contributions Schumann and Wagner made to the discourse of musical appraisal. To that effect, the author raises fundamental questions that have thus far remained unaddressed: What textual features characterize the critical writings? How do Schumann and Wagner understand their roles as critics of music? And in what way do they reach out to the reader? Rather than understanding these critical writings exclusively as a gateway to the compositions and musical aesthetics of Schumann and Wagner, this book analyzes the texts through the lens of pragmatics, narratology and discourse analysis. Using this interdisciplinary perspective, the author proposes to understand Schumann and Wagner within the broader medial and discursive context of German ‘Kritik’. He challenges the dominant narrative that brands Schumann and Wagner as elitist Romantic critics, demonstrating instead that they actively encourage their readers to form their own judgements. This volume is an indispensable resource for scholars of German literature, periodicals and music alike.

Download or read book German and European Poetics After the Holocaust written by Gert Hofmann and published by Camden House. This book was released on 2011 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New essays on poetical and theoretical responses to the Holocaust's rupture of German and European civilization. Crisis presents chances for change and creativity: Adorno's famous dictum that writing poetry after Auschwitz would be barbaric has haunted discourse on poetics, but has also given rise to poetic and theoretical acts of resistance. The essays in this volume discuss postwar poetics in terms of new poetological directions and territory rather than merely destruction of traditions. Embedded in the discourse triggered by Adorno, the volume's foci include the work of Paul Celan, Gottfried Benn, and Ingeborg Bachmann. Other German writers discussed are Ilse Aichinger, Rose Ausländer, Charlotte Beradt, Thomas Kling, Heiner Müller, and Nelly Sachs; concrete poetry is also treated. The final section offers comparative views of the poetics of European literary figures such as Jean Paul Sartre, André Malraux, and Danilo Kis and a consideration of the aesthetics of Claude Lanzmann's film Shoah.

Book excerpt: A re-examination of the George Circle in the cultural and political contexts of Wilhelmine, Weimar, and Nazi Germany. Stefan George (1868-1933) was one of the most important figures in modern German culture. His poetry, in its originality and impact, has been ranked with that of Goethe and Hölderlin. Yet George's reach extended beyond the sphereof literature. In the early 1900s, he gathered around himself a circle of disciples who subscribed to his vision of comprehensive cultural-spiritual renewal and sought to turn it into reality. The ideas of the George Circle profoundly affected Germany's educated middle class, especially in the aftermath of the First World War, when their critique of bourgeois liberalism, materialism, and scholarship (Wissenschaft) as well as their call for new formsof leadership (Herrschaft) and a new Reich found wider resonance. The essays collected in the present volume critically re-examine these ideas, their contexts, and their influence. They provide new perspectives on the intersection of culture and politics in the works of the George Circle, not least its ambivalent relationship to National Socialism.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Was ist Romantik? Um diese Frage zu beantworten, genügt es nicht, gängige literaturwissenschaftliche Auffassungen fortzuschreiben. Statt dessen soll es im vorliegenden Band darum gehen, eine Wissenskultur für die Romantik und deren Zeichensysteme lesbar zu machen. Die Beiträge reflektieren das Kommunikationsangebot romantischer Selbstverständigung über Literatur und Kunst interdisziplinär und rekonstruieren, wie in unterschiedlichen Medien, Diskursen und ästhetischen Verfahren die "Romantisierung der Welt" als Wissensordnungprojiziert wird und wirkmächtig ausstrahlt. Sie bieten so die Möglichkeit zur exemplarischen Formulierung einer vielseitigen Kulturhermeneutik.
