Globalism in the Middle Ages and the Early Modern Age: Innovative Approaches and Perspectives
ISBN: 9783111189079 / Angielski / Twarda / 2023 / 650 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Although it is fashionable among modernists to claim that globalism emerged only since ca. 1800, the opposite can well be documented through careful comparative and transdisciplinary studies, as this volume demonstrates, offering a wide range of innovative perspectives on often neglected literary, philosophical, historical, or medical documents. Texts, images, ideas, knowledge, and objects migrated throughout the world already in the pre-modern world, even if the quantitative level compared to the modern world might have been different. In fact, by means of translations and trade, for...

Was passiert, wenn man schon mehrere Jahrzehnte in der 'gelobten Welt' Amerika gelebt hat und auf einmal nicht mehr akzeptieren kann, was da so läuft?

The Fables of Ulrich Bonerius (Ca. 1350): Masterwork of Late Medieval Didactic Literature
ISBN: 9781527559554 / Angielski / Twarda / 2020 / 298 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Serendipitously, at around the same time as Boccaccio published his famous Decameron (1350), the Swiss-German Dominican Ulrich Bonerius published his highly popular collection of fables, The Gemstone. Both authors pursued very similar goals, instructing their audiences about vices and virtues, Boccaccio by telling entertaining, often erotic tales, Bonerius by relating didactic tales, mostly based on animals as the active characters. This book provides the first English translation of all one hundred fables authored by Bonerius. Bonerius drew mostly from the classical Aesopian tradition, and...

Early History of the Southwest through the Eyes of German-Speaking Jesuit Missionaries: A Transcultural Experience in the Eighteenth Century
ISBN: 9780739177846 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 228 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The history of the United States has been deeply determined by Germans throughout time, but hardly anyone has noticed that this was the case in the Southwest as well, known as Arizona/Sonora today, in the eighteenth century as Pimeria Alta. This was the area where the Jesuits operated all by themselves, and many of them, at least since the 1730s, originated from the Holy Roman Empire, hence were identified as Germans (including Swiss, Austrians, Bohemians, Croats, Alsatians, and Poles). Most of them were highly devout and dedicated, hard working and very intelligent people, achieving wonders...

A Translation of Johannes Pauli's Didactic Tales: Lessons from the Past for Our Future
ISBN: 9781527561441 / Twarda / 2023 / 238 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The Franciscan preacher and author Johannes Pauli published a highly influential collection of sermon narratives, Schimpf und Ernst, in 1522. This was a major bestseller well into the 17th and 18th centuries. These short prose narratives (the original work consisted of 693 texts) set the stage for many subsequent anthologies of jest narratives by sixteenth-century writers such as Georg Wickram and Hans-Wilhelm Kirchhof. The two title terms derive from Horace’s “prodesse et delectare” (to profit and to delight), used here to reference entertaining teachings about human shortcomings,...

Late-Medieval German Women's Poetry: Secular and Religious Songs
ISBN: 9781843842965 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 164 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Although there were a number of outstanding women writers of the late middle ages, it was not thought that women composed lyric poetry. Classen proves this to be a misconception, presenting here a selection of secular love songs and religious hymns composed by fifteenth- and sixteenth-century German women poets, translated for the first time. Many seem to have left their works anonymously, or hid their names using acrostics; in these and other cases, Classen has identified a considerable corpus of writing which now fills the gap previously supposed to exist in the history of medieval and...

Medieval research has grown tremendously in depth and breadth over the last decades. Particularly our understanding of medieval culture, of the basic living conditions, and the specific value system prevalent at that time has considerably expanded, to a point where we are in danger of no longer seeing the proverbial forest for the trees. The present, innovative handbook offers compact articles on essential topics, ideals, specific knowledge,...

Religious Toleration in the Middle Ages and Early Modern Age: An Anthology of Literary, Theological, and Philosophical Texts
ISBN: 9783631801345 / Angielski / Twarda / 2019 / 396 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. More than ever before do we need the critical engagement with religious tolerance. Historical perspectives allow us to gain access to the discourse on this universal, often very contested topic. Already the Middle Ages and the early modern age witnessed the emergence of significant voices addressing toleration, if not even tolerance. This anthology opens many new perspectives toward this centrally important topic, adding a cultural-historical, religious, literary, and philosophical dimension mostly unknown today. "Albrecht Classen reminds us in this volume that, "we all know just...
