«Zeitgeist» and «Zerrbild»: Word, Image and Idea in German Satire, 1800-1848
ISBN: 9783039107254 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 396 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. This book examines the defining trends in German politics, history and thought between the Napoleonic wars and 1848, and reflects on how they shaped the verbal and visual satire of the age.
Taking issue with the idea that German satire before 1848 is too fragmented for a coherent large-scale study, the author draws widely on the spheres of literature, history and philosophy to inform his work. In particular, he focuses on the all-important notion of the world order, of what constitutes the rightful path of history and of mankind a question with which German thought at the time was...

This volume assembles thirteen essays by two of the greatest British Germanists, Elizabeth Mary Wilkinson and Leonard Ashley Willoughby. The essays are presented chronologically from 1942 to 1969 and offer extraordinary insights into Goethe s works and Schiller s aesthetics.

These essays are fresh and immediate...

From the Past to the Future: The Role of Mythology from Winckelmann to the Early Schelling
ISBN: 9783039110636 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 227 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. The call by German Early Romantic writers for a new mythology is one of the boldest and most unusual demands by any literary theorist. This study asks how an age which variously saw mythology as a historical phenomenon or a collection of artistically useful images came to see the need for its renewal at all. The author traces the evolving role of mythology in the writings of Winckelmann, Herder, Moritz and Schiller and argues that the late eighteenth century saw the emergence of a new conception of mythology which depended less on an established iconography and cultural context and more on...

This book gives an account of the literary representation of Jews as businessmen from the early nineteenth century to the onset of the Third Reich. The historical context provides the background for an examination of the literary representation of Jewish businessmen and presents evidence for the perpetuation, transformation, and combination of stereotypes.
The double bind of assimilation that the Jews were vilified whether they succeeded or failed is illustrated from literary treatments by the Romantic writer Wilhelm Hauff and the early twentieth-century writers Lion Feuchtwanger and Paul...

Her biography charts a complex relationship with the GDR state, from initial ideological identification to sustained, radical rejection. Situating its reflections on her work against the backdrop of a changing critical landscape, this analysis takes account of the re-contextualisation of her writing necessitated by the collapse of the GDR.
The author charts the development of a number of seminal themes in Maron s uvre. The search for an authentic form of expression in her earliest texts gave way to a focus on the...

Sound and Sense: Music and Musical Metaphor in the Thought and Writing of Goethe and His Age
ISBN: 9783034302371 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 515 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. This study focuses on beliefs about music current in eighteenth-century Germany. Of particular interest are the conceptual metaphors through which major writers (Goethe, Schiller, Herder and Klopstock) used music as analogy and medium for perceptions of the world in their writing. The book surveys traditional metaphors (music as harmony/disharmony, music as like/unlike language, music as structured by mathematical proportion or by rhythm) inherited from Greek and French thought and looks at ways in which these writers also assimilated and developed contemporary ideas (especially from Leibniz,...

Poetry Project: Irish Germanists Interpret German Verse
ISBN: 9783906766454 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 276 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. This volume brings together forty interpretations of German verse produced by Germanists working at institutions of Higher Education in Ireland. The historical range of the contributions is extraordinary. They cover poems dating from 1663 to 1991, many of which reflect the radically divergent personal and socio-political circumstances which prevailed at the time of their production. However, the volume lays no claim to literary-historical exhaustiveness. Indeed the poetic preferences of the contributors mean that clusters of interest emerge; these clusters often reflect radical changes in the...

This is the first English translation of the seminal book by Katharina Reiss and Hans Vermeer, Grundlegung einer allgemeinen Translationstheorie, first published in 1984. The first part of the book was written by Vermeer and explains the theoretical foundations and basic principles of skopos theory as a general theory of translation and interpreting or translational action, whereas the second part, penned by Katharina Reiss, seeks to integrate her text-typological approach, first presented in 1971, as a specific theory that focuses on those cases in which the skopos requires equivalence of...
