Book Synopsis Towards Emancipation by : Carol Diethe
Download or read book Towards Emancipation written by Carol Diethe and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 1998 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Focusing on feminism in Germany, Towards Emancipation examines some of the most influential women writers of the nineteenth century, from the late-Romantic writers, such as Bettina von Arnim and Johanna Schopenhauer, to writers who were active in the 1848 Revolution, such as Malwida von Meysenbug and Johanna Kinkel. The heart of the book is devoted to the leading proponents of emancipation, Hedwig Dohm, Helene Bohlau and the prolific Louise Otto-Peters, yet it also includes mainstream writers whose attitudes towards the movement range from lukewarm (the enormously popular Marie von Ebner-Eschenbach and Gabriele Reuter) to downright hostile (Lou Andreas-Salome and Franziska zu Reventlow).

Book Synopsis Annette von Droste-Hülshoff by : Margaret Mare
Download or read book Annette von Droste-Hülshoff written by Margaret Mare and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-11-29 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1965, Annette von Droste-Hülshoff is the first book about the great German poetess of the early nineteenth century in English. Delicate, fey, over-sensitive, unstable, with the intellect often described as unbecomingly masculine, it is easy to see how Annette von Droste-Hülshoff was bound to flout the conventions of the conservative society she lived in and to suffer accordingly. But melancholy and despairing as many of her poems are, we are never allowed to imagine her as a weak person. Margaret Mare is careful to show us her trenchant humour, her gift of mimicry, her generosity to her friends, the resolution which made her refuse, in the middle of a dangerous illness, to treat herself ‘like a soap bubble or a soft egg’—giving us a full picture of the woman of genius who could prophesy confidently that her works would still be read a hundred years after her death. Divided into three parts the book deals with the poet’s life and background, detailed interpretations of selected poems, and, the poet’s treatment of supernatural themes, her epics and prose works, her style and use of images. This book will be an essential read for scholars and researchers of poetry, literature, German literature, European literature, and comparative literature.
Book Synopsis Modernism and the Individual Talent by : Jörg Rademacher
Download or read book Modernism and the Individual Talent written by Jörg Rademacher and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2002 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following their first gathering in Munster, Westphalia, the city of Ford's ancestors, Fordians present a multi-faceted image of this Anglo-German and Francophile English Modernist. International interest in the Hueffers' German background will be triggered by two articles on Franz Hueffer and the references to Munster and Westphalia in Ford's writings. Excursions in politics and poetry and Ford in context provide a framework for "Aspects of Parade's End", the edition and simultaneous translation of which into major European languages forms the most important project for the new Millennium.
Book Synopsis Annette Von Droste-Hülshoff by : John Guthrie
Download or read book Annette Von Droste-Hülshoff written by John Guthrie and published by Berg Publishers. This book was released on 1989-08-28 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a biography of the poet whose reputation moves between two extremes and is proclaimed by many to be Germany's greatest female poet, yet is little known outside Germany. The author attempts to place her in the current of the German Post-Romantic era and analyses her works in their literary context. He shows how the popular view of the writer hopelessly confuses her life and works in a tangle of myth and legend and also includes some special translations of excerpts from the poems.

Book Synopsis Ambivalence Transcended by : Gertrud Bauer Pickar
Download or read book Ambivalence Transcended written by Gertrud Bauer Pickar and published by Camden House. This book was released on 1997 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First comprehensive study in English of Germany's most prominent female author. Annette von Droste-Hülshoff (1798-1848) remains Germany's foremost female author. Perhaps best known for her novella Die Judenbuche and her ballads, Droste's narrative ability in prose or verse, and her gift for forging highly crafted, often poignant lyrical works, have brought her continuing and growing critical acclaim. Recent critical interest has brought her new recognition as a forerunner in the struggle of women to find their own literary voices. This volume is the first comprehensive study in English of Droste's works and authorial career. It combines a broad view of her literary and epistolary writings with close readings of individual works.

Book Synopsis Textual Scholarship and the Material Book by : Wim Van Mierlo
Download or read book Textual Scholarship and the Material Book written by Wim Van Mierlo and published by Rodopi. This book was released on 2007 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last decades, the emphasis in textual scholarship has moved onto creation, production, process, collaboration; onto the material manifestations of a work; onto multiple rather than single versions; onto reception and book history. Textual scholarship now includes not only textual editing, but any form of scholarship that looks at the materiality of text, of writing, of reading, and of the book. The essays in this collection explore many questions, about methodology and theory, arising from this widening scope of textual scholarship. The range of texts discussed, from Sanskrit epic via Medieval Latin commentary through English and Scottish Ballads to the plays of Samuel Beckett and the stories of Guimarães Rosa, testifies to the vigour of the discipline. The range of texts is matched by a range of approach: from theoretical discussion of how text 'happens', to analysis of issues of book design and censorship, the connections between literary and textual studies, exploration of the links between reception and commodification in George Eliot, and between information theory and paratext. Through this diversity of subject and approach, a common theme emerges: the need to look further for common ground from which to continue the debate from a comparative perspective.
Book Synopsis The Transformation of German Jewry, 1780-1840 by : David Sorkin
Download or read book The Transformation of German Jewry, 1780-1840 written by David Sorkin and published by Wayne State University Press. This book was released on 1999 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study analyzes the transformation of German Jewry in the period from 1780-1840 in order to explain why the nature of the most visible Jewry in modern Europe remained essentially invisible to its own members and to subsequent generations. German Jewry was the most visible of the modern European Jewries because in its history all of the hallmarks of modernity seemed to have converged in their fullest and most volatile forms. The Transformation of German Jewry 1780-1840 thoroughly explores this period of time when large numbers of Jews were integrated into a non-Jewish society. Sorkin examines the revolution of German Jewry through the study of journals, sermons, novels, and theological popularizations that constituted this new German-Jewish "public sphere." This study may also be applied beyond the confines of Jewish history, for it is a study in the afterlife of the German Enlightenment, the Aufklärung, in the culture of liberalism.
Book Synopsis Akin to Poetry by : Philip Challinor
Download or read book Akin to Poetry written by Philip Challinor and published by Gothic Pr. This book was released on 2010 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Robert Aickman was one of the twentieth century's most distinguished and distinctive writers of weird fiction. He believed that supernatural stories should work upon the unconscious mind in a manner 'akin to poetry', and his 'strange tales', as he called them, are personal, elegant and elusive. Perhaps for this reason, they have so far received little of the critical attention they deserve. This book examines eight of Aickman's stories, noting their often indirect cultural and autobiographical allusions, and drawing out at least some of the meaning behind their frequently enigmatic plots." -- back cover blurb.

Book Synopsis Annette Von Droste-Hülshoff by : Mary Elizabeth Morgan
Download or read book Annette Von Droste-Hülshoff written by Mary Elizabeth Morgan and published by Peter Lang Group Ag, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 1981 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of this study has been to give a new analytic assessment of the work of Annette von Droste-Hülshoff within its European historical and literary framework, taking into account informed literary opinion from the Droste's time up to the present day. The first half of the Nineteenth Century was an age of transition, of ideological and social change. This climate of change is perceptible in her work. The authoress has attempted also to trace Annette's own «Übergang» from the derivative to the original. She anticipated some ideas and practice of Naturalism, while never losing her feeling for the preternatural and inexplicable in the universe and the human psyche.
