Book Synopsis Enlightenment Underground by : Martin Mulsow
Download or read book Enlightenment Underground written by Martin Mulsow and published by University of Virginia Press. This book was released on 2015-11-30 with total page 617 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Online supplement,"Mulsow: Additions to Notes drawn from the 2002 edition of Moderne aus dem Untergrund": full versions of nearly 300 notes that were truncated in the print edition. Hosted on H. C. Erik Midelfort's website. Martin Mulsow’s seismic reinterpretation of the origins of the Enlightenment in Germany won awards and renown in its original German edition, and now H. C. Erik Midelfort's translation makes this sensational book available to English-speaking readers. In Enlightenment Underground, Mulsow shows that even in the late seventeenth century some thinkers in Germany ventured to express extremely dangerous ideas, but did so as part of a secret underground. Scouring manuscript collections across northern Europe, Mulsow studied the writings of countless hitherto unknown radical jurists, theologians, historians, and dissident students who pushed for the secularization of legal, political, social, and religious knowledge. Often their works circulated in manuscript, anonymously, or as clandestinely published books. Working as a philosophical microhistorian, Mulsow has discovered the identities of several covert radicals and linked them to circles of young German scholars, many of whom were connected with the vibrant radical cultures of the Netherlands, England, and Denmark. The author reveals how radical ideas and contributions to intellectual doubt came from Socinians and Jews, church historians and biblical scholars, political theorists, and unemployed university students. He shows that misreadings of humorous or ironic works sometimes gave rise to unintended skeptical thoughts or corrosively political interpretations of Christianity. This landmark book overturns stereotypical views of the early Enlightenment in Germany as cautious, conservative, and moderate, and replaces them with a new portrait that reveals a movement far more radical, unintended, and puzzling than previously suspected.

Book Synopsis The Satiric Treatise in Eighteenth-century Germany by : Peter E. Carels
Download or read book The Satiric Treatise in Eighteenth-century Germany written by Peter E. Carels and published by Peter Lang Group Ag, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 1976 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Germany during the 18th Century several prose satires were produced that resembled each other in their basic fiction: they all pretended to be sober disquisitions on matters of scholarly concern. The writers in each case achieved their satiric effect by perverting the various formal conventions expected of the learned author. This study examines the wide range of distortive techniques employed by the satirists Liscow, Rabener, Riedel and Hess (among others) in order to define the parameters and suggest the course of development of this unique genre.
Book Synopsis Money in the German-speaking Lands by : Mary Lindemann
Download or read book Money in the German-speaking Lands written by Mary Lindemann and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2017-08-01 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Money is more than just a medium of financial exchange: across time and place, it has performed all sorts of cultural, political, and social functions. This volume traces money in German-speaking Europe from the late Renaissance until the close of the twentieth century, exploring how people have used it and endowed it with multiple meanings. The fascinating studies gathered here collectively demonstrate money’s vast symbolic and practical significance, from its place in debates about religion and the natural world to its central role in statecraft and the formation of national identity.
Book Synopsis Friendship in the Middle Ages and Early Modern Age by : Albrecht Classen
Download or read book Friendship in the Middle Ages and Early Modern Age written by Albrecht Classen and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2011-03-29 with total page 813 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although it seems that erotic love generally was the prevailing topic in the medieval world and the Early Modern Age, parallel to this the Ciceronian ideal of friendship also dominated the public discourse, as this collection of essays demonstrates. Following an extensive introduction, the individual contributions explore the functions and the character of friendship from Late Antiquity (Augustine) to the 17th century. They show the spectrum of variety in which this topic appeared ‐ not only in literature, but also in politics and even in painting.
Book Synopsis German Secular Song-books of the Mid-seventeenth Century: An Examination of the Texts in Collections of Songs Published in the German-language Area Between 1624 and 1660 by : Anthony J. Harper
Download or read book German Secular Song-books of the Mid-seventeenth Century: An Examination of the Texts in Collections of Songs Published in the German-language Area Between 1624 and 1660 written by Anthony J. Harper and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-02-05 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This title was first published in 2003. The secular song of the 17th century represents a relatively neglected area of German culture. In this book, Anthony J. Harper first studies the songs of the two great models of the time, Martin Opitz and Paul Fleming, following this with an analysis of the song-books and collections from three regions: the North-East, Central Germany, and the North. The procedure is thus both historical and geographical. The texts of these songs are examined in relation to structural principles, thematic range and stylistic treatment. Harper establishes common features and regional variations of this genre, which involves love-poetry, songs of manners with colourful portrayals of everyday life, and comic songs in a lower stylistic register. Particular attention is paid to the work of Albert and Dach in Konigsberg, Finckelthaus, Schirmer, Krieger and Schoch in Leipzig and Dresden, and Rist, Voigtlander, Zesen, Greflinger and Stieler in the Hamburg region. Where appropriate, the book assesses the role of musical settings, while not seeking to offer technical insights into musical matters. Of value to scholars of German literature, this study should also be of interest to musicologists working on the Renaissance and Baroque periods.

Book Synopsis Courage, The Adventuress and The False Messiah by : Hans Jacob Christoffel von Grimmelshausen
Download or read book Courage, The Adventuress and The False Messiah written by Hans Jacob Christoffel von Grimmelshausen and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2015-12-08 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Grimmelshausen's enduring fame as Germany’s greatest satirical novelist has rested mainly on The Adventerous Simplicissimus, the first of four novels comprising the Simplician cycle. Less well known, though of equal interest for their penetrating and satiric insight into seventeenth-century beliefs and superstitions, are the two Simplician tales now made available to English readers in this edition: Courage, The Adventuress, the fictional biography of a camp follower in the Thirty Years War, a grimly humorous tale told in the earthy language of the people; and The False Messiah, comprising nine chapters from Grimmelshausen’s last work, The Enchanted Bird’s Nest, Part II. The book includes an Introduction with an account of Grimmelshausen’s life, works, and philosophy, as well as critical comment on the two works. Originally published in 1964. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.

Book Synopsis The Vices of Learning by : Sari Kivisto
Download or read book The Vices of Learning written by Sari Kivisto and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2014-05-09 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Vices of Learning: Morality and Knowledge at Early Modern Universities, Sari Kivistö examines scholarly vices in the late Baroque and early Enlightenment periods. Moral criticism of the learned was a favourite theme of Latin dissertations, treatises and satires written in Germany ca. 1670–1730. Works on scholarly pride, logomachy, curiosity and other vices kept the presses running at German Protestant universities as well as farther north. Kivistö shows how scholars constructed fame and how the process involved various means of producing celebrity. The book industry, plagiarism and impressive titles were all labelled dishonest means of advancing a career. In The Vices of Learning Kivistö argues that scholarly ethics was an essential part of the early modern intellectual framework.

Book Synopsis Salomo in Schlesien by : Thomas Althaus
Download or read book Salomo in Schlesien written by Thomas Althaus and published by Rodopi. This book was released on 2006 with total page 494 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Friedrich von Logau ist der wichtigste deutschsprachige Epigrammatiker des 17. Jahrhunderts. Auf den Titeln seiner Sammlungen erscheint der Autorname anagrammatisch verschrieben zu Salomon (i.e. Friedrich) von Golaw. Salomon "redete dreitausend Sprüche" (1 Könige 5,12), und Logau legt 1654 sein zu ebensolcher Größe ausgewachsenes Werk der Epigramme vor: Deutscher Sinn-Getichte Drey Tausend Das sind Kurzsatiren, Gelegenheitsgedichte, Devisen und lyrische Bemerkungen in Überzahl: ein Thesaurus kritisch reflektierten Wissens seiner Zeit. Da geht es aber nicht mehr um salomonische Weisheit in ihrer Urteilssicherheit und Apodiktik. Das Epigramm ist im 17. Jahrhundert das Genre scharfsinnigen, auch spitzfindigen Denkens, das sich nicht mehr an Normen ausrichten läßt. Jedes neue Epigramm Logaus verlangt einen Blickwechsel und eine andere Sicht auf die Welt. Das schließt Widerspruch und kritische Rücknahmen ein und ergibt im Resultat: Pluralität des Denkens.
