Book Synopsis Lovers, Parricides, and Highwaymen by : Bruce Duncan
Download or read book Lovers, Parricides, and Highwaymen written by Bruce Duncan and published by Boydell & Brewer. This book was released on 1999 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 18th-century movement called Sturm und Drang played a critical role in the development of German literature in general, and drama in particular. Lasting from the late-1760s to the early-1780s, it was part of a great national awakening that propelled German culture into European prominence. At the same time, however, Sturm und Drang is a complex phenomenon that simultaneously draws on and rebels against the cultural and historical developments that surround it. Two centuries of reception have further clouded the picture, injecting the concept of the movement, or at least its name, even into American popular culture.
Book Synopsis Rhythm, Music, and the Brain by : Michael Thaut
Download or read book Rhythm, Music, and the Brain written by Michael Thaut and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-01-11 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the advent of modern cognitive neuroscience and new tools of studying the human brain "live," music as a highly complex, temporally ordered and rule-based sensory language quickly became a fascinating topic of study. The question of "how" music moves us, stimulates our thoughts, feelings, and kinesthetic sense, and how it can reach the human experience in profound ways is now measured with the advent of modern cognitive neuroscience. The goal of Rhythm, Music and the Brain is an attempt to bring the knowledge of the arts and the sciences and review our current state of study about the brain and music, specifically rhythm. The author provides a thorough examination of the current state of research, including the biomedical applications of neurological music therapy in sensorimotor speech and cognitive rehabilitation. This book will be of interest for the lay and professional reader in the sciences and arts as well as the professionals in the fields of neuroscientific research, medicine, and rehabilitation.

Book Synopsis A Cultural History of the Emotions in the Age of Romanticism, Revolution, and Empire by : Susan J. Matt
Download or read book A Cultural History of the Emotions in the Age of Romanticism, Revolution, and Empire written by Susan J. Matt and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2020-08-20 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between 1780 and 1920, modern conceptions of emotion-conceptions still very much present in the 21st century-first took shape. This book traces that history, charting the changing meaning and experience of feelings in an era shaped by political and market revolutions, romanticism, empiricism, the rise of psychology and psychoanalysis. During this period, the word emotion itself gained currency, gradually supplanting older vocabularies and visions of feeling. Terms to describe feelings changed; so too did conceptions of emotions' proper role in politics, economics, and culture. Political upheavals turned a spotlight on the role of feeling in public life; in domestic life, sentimental bonds gained new importance, as families were transformed from productive units to emotional ones. From the halls of parliaments to the familial hearth, from the art museum to the theatre, from the pulpit to the concert hall, lively debates over feelings raged across the 19th century.

Book Synopsis Infanticide and Abortion in Early Modern Germany by : Margaret Brannan Lewis
Download or read book Infanticide and Abortion in Early Modern Germany written by Margaret Brannan Lewis and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-17 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first work to look at the full range of three centuries of the early modern period in regards to infanticide and abortion, a period in which both practices were regarded equally as criminal acts. Faced with dire consequences if they were found pregnant or if they bore illegitimate children, many unmarried women were left with little choice. Some of these unfortunate women turned to infanticide and abortion as the way out of their difficult situation. This book explores the legal, social, cultural, and religious causes of infanticide and abortion in the early modern period, as well as the societal reactions to them. It examines how perceptions of these actions taken by desperate women changed over three hundred years and as early modern society became obsessed with a supposed plague of murderous mothers, resulting in heated debates, elaborate public executions, and a media frenzy. Finally, this book explores how the prosecution of infanticide and abortion eventually helped lead to major social and legal reformations during the age of the Enlightenment.
Book Synopsis Lessing and the Sturm und Drang by : Karen Ottewell
Download or read book Lessing and the Sturm und Drang written by Karen Ottewell and published by Peter Lang Publishing. This book was released on 2002 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the benevolent intellectual climate of the 1960s in Germany which had witnessed a reappraisal of earlier attitudes towards the eighteenth century in general, and towards the Aufklarung in particular, relatively little has since been done to pursue this stimulus to its logical conclusion-or to a discussion of possible conclusions. By looking beyond artificial literary classifications at the historical data and by accumulating detailed empirical evidence this study seeks to reappraise this situation, firstly by establishing a case which overcomes the traditional antithesis of Aufklarung and Sturm und Drang, and secondly by presenting a clear picture of the degree and nature of Lessing's influence on German dramatists from Herder to Schiller. Contents: Aufklarung and Sturm und Drang: (Re-) Definitions-Lessing as precursor of the Sturm und Drang before 1769-Lessing's Attitude towards Writers of the Sturm und Drang-Emilia Galotti-The Reception of Lessing by the Sturm und Drang Writers

Book Synopsis Faust, Part One by : Johann Wolfgang van Goethe
Download or read book Faust, Part One written by Johann Wolfgang van Goethe and published by Deep Vellum Publishing. This book was released on 2020-11-03 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The original tale of moral destruction, in a brand-new translation: Faust is a man torn between the urges of the living world and the significance of moral living. He feels nothing, he lives for nothing, and thus engages in a wager with Mephistopheles, the devil himself. Goethe’s master work shares the deep complexity of a human life, rife with pain, mistakes and dynamic complexity. With Faust, the lushly lyrical and philosophically brilliant drama on which the poet spent almost his entire life, Goethe solidified himself as a major literary figure whose work would transcend time and space to create the modern world. Now, this brand-new, dynamic translation demands we ask of our world: who will win, humanity or Mephistopheles?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How come Shakespeare keeps challenging and fascinating us? Why do we keep watching his plays and reading his poetry?

His irresistible, playful comedies, full of love and joy, show us at our happiest moments, his tragedies show us the darkest dungeons of the human mind, and his romances have this strong and wonderful tone of reconciliation and forgiveness, that we all need now and then, and his poetry lends words to the deep feelings, that we all know. Kitter Krebs takes the reader on an exciting journey into European culture through her insightful readings and deep interpretations of Shakespeare’s great work. She shows his deep roots in the past, but also the great enrichment Shakespeare has to offer to our present and perhaps to our future.
