Book Synopsis The Origin of German Tragic Drama by : Walter Benjamin
Download or read book The Origin of German Tragic Drama written by Walter Benjamin and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2020-05-05 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Origin of German Tragic Drama is Walter Benjamin's most sustained and original work. It begins with a general theoretical introduction on the nature of the baroque art of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, concentrating on the peculiar stage-form of royal martyr dramas called Trauerspiel. Benjamin also comments on the engravings of Durer and the theatre of Calderon and Shakespeare. Baroque tragedy, he argues, was distinguished from classical tragedy by its shift from myth into history. Georg Lukacs, an opponent of Benjamin's aesthetics, singled out The Origin of German Tragic Drama as one of the main sources of literary modernism in the twentieth century.

This book was released on 2017-11-30 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The German Drama of the Nineteenth Century AT the beginning of the nineteenth century middle class drama on the German stage far surpassed all other varieties in numbers and popularity. Lessing had laid the foundation for it and made it free from French in fluence. Miss Sara Sampson Minna von Barn kelm (1767) and Emilia Galotti (1772) were the earl iest prototypes of a realistic art which took its sub jects from contemporaneous life and substituted deep feeling in unadorned prose for the unnatural sentiment of the Alexandrine tragedy. In his Hamburgische Dramaturgic (1768 - 69) Lessing showed that the French were wrong in asserting the conformity of their rules with the laws of Aristotle, and pointed to Shakespeare as the greatest tragic poet of modern times.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1950. This present work examines the political, economic and social condition of Germany on literature, particular drama, in the late eighteenth- and early nineteenth-centuries.

Book Synopsis The History of the Chorus, in the German Drama by : Elsie Winifred Helmrich
Download or read book The History of the Chorus, in the German Drama written by Elsie Winifred Helmrich and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-15 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of the Chorus, in the German Drama A chorus of some kind occurs with more or less frequency throughout the whole history of the German drama. The great mysteries or pageants of medieval Germany had their origin in a church chorus, and for a considerable period of their evolution were vitally connected with this chorus. In the sixteenth century enthusiasm for the New Learning was brought from Italy into Germany and gave rise to the era of the Latin school-comedy and the Reformation drama with choral odes between the acts. In the seventeenth century the Renaissance drama of France and Holland was introduced, and the Senecan chorus became an essential part of the drama. With this century the chorus as a recognized part of dramatic technic passed out of existence, but admiration for all things Greek led, in the eighteenth century, to a renewed interest in the chorus. Its value and significance for the drama were discussed by many dramatists, and in a few cases it was used by way of experiment. During the Romantic period the chorus, with the exception of a few sporadic instances, again disappears, only to reappear, in the middle of the nineteenth century, in a new form, that of the orchestra in the music dramas of Richard Wagner. Although the chorus is found in every period of German literature it is not possible to trace a definite line of development. The chorus of one century did not evolve out of the chorus of the preceding century, but in each case the chorus was brought into Germany under the direct influence of some foreign literature.
