Book Synopsis The Reception of Pablo Neruda's Works in the German Democratic Republic by : Bonnie A. Beckett
Download or read book The Reception of Pablo Neruda's Works in the German Democratic Republic written by Bonnie A. Beckett and published by Peter Lang Group Ag, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 1981 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study examines in detail the reception accorded to the works of the Chilean poet Pablo Neruda in the GDR. The initial phase of the transmission process took place in the late 1930s and early 1940s when Neruda established contact with leftwing exiles during the Spanish Civil War, subsequently in Mexico City, and in occupied Germany after World War II. The core chapters correlate the changing cultural and political situation in the GDR with the introduction and critical adumbration of Neruda's output. A separate chapter deals with the stage productions of his works, and the conclusion traces briefly the reception of Neruda's works in the Federal Republic of Germany, highlighting the initial contrast and recent convergence of Marxist and non-Marxist criticism of Neruda.

Download or read book The Lion and the Eagle written by Conrad Kent and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 1999-12-01 with total page 544 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The German and Spanish-speaking worlds have, over the centuries, developed an intrinsic relationship, one which predates the Habsburg dynasty and the Renaissance and baroque periods. The cross-fertilization and challenges have been both fruitful and complex with novel inventions surfacing in one culture often achieving their greatest prosperity in the other: Martin Luther's Protestant Reformation stimulated a response in Spain that was to define the European Counter Reformation; Spanish Baroque writers were seminal in the development of German Romanticism; Carl Christian Friedrich Krause and other nineteenth-century liberals provided the foundation for Spanish reformist efforts on the one hand, while German conservatives like Novalis and Adam Müller inspired conservatvies on the other; the music of Richard Wagner transformed Spanish music and the Spanish stage at the turn of the twentieth century; Pablo Picasso and other artists of the Spanish avant-garde sparkled the enthusiasm of the Germans before the Nazi era. Today, German and Spanish intellectuals and writers share a similar commitment to the creation of a European culture in the face of resistance from other members of the European Union. Viewed from a variety of disciplines this volume explores the relentlessly consistent, albeit often forgotten connections between the two linguistic and cultural groups revealing the myriad of ways in which they have shared and transformed literature, art, culture, politics, and history.

Book Synopsis Difficulties of Saying "I" by : Robert K. Shirer
Download or read book Difficulties of Saying "I" written by Robert K. Shirer and published by Peter Lang Incorporated, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 1988 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most ambitious novels of Christa Wolf and Uwe Johnson, Kindheitsmuster and Jahrestage, have remarkable similarities. In both novels a woman narrator seeks to recall her childhood, spent in the Germany of the Third Reich, in the hope of finding some connection between patterns of behavior developed there and her own troubled self. Neither narrator finds a traditional first-person narration possible, and each develops a distinctive and unusual narrative voice. The present study provides a detailed comparative reading of the two novels and investigates the problem of a narrator/protagonist alienated from herself by time, trauma, and ideology.

Book Synopsis Techniques of Compression and Prefiguration in the Beginnings of Theodor Fontane's Novels by : Carol Hawkes Velardi

This book was released on 1992 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Theodor Fontane repeatedly cited the beginning as key to a novel's construction and development, as exemplified in a letter to his publisher in 1880: «Beim richtigen Aufbau muß in der ersten Seite der Keim des Ganzen stecken». Through close reading and analysis of the beginnings of five Fontane «Gesellschaftsromane», this work focuses on Fontane's varied techniques of compression and prefiguration and traces their developing refinement throughout his career as novelist and social critic.

Book Synopsis Goethe's Römische Elegien by : Eva Dessau Bernhardt
Download or read book Goethe's Römische Elegien written by Eva Dessau Bernhardt and published by Peter Lang Group Ag, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 1990 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In restoring the two suppressed and neglected elegies to Goethe's first lyric cycle (1788-1790), the author makes clear that their inclusion alters its focus and tone, changes its emphases, and gives it greater continuity. While the protagonist is treated as a fictional persona of the author, art (the poet and creative activity) is posited as a major theme, while the themes of Rome and mythology support, enhance, ennoble, and give classical dimension to the central one, the creative process. Accordingly, a new scheme of organization emerges with Elegy XIII as the axis around which the poetic persona develops. Four elegies stand out as poetological elegies, poems of creative inspiration or artistic achievement.

Book Synopsis Imagery in Conrad Ferdinand Meyer's Prose Works by : Tiiu V. Laane
Download or read book Imagery in Conrad Ferdinand Meyer's Prose Works written by Tiiu V. Laane and published by Peter Lang Group Ag, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 1983 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examines in detail the role of imagery in Conrad Ferdinand Meyer's prose works. It shows how intricately formed patterns of imagery impart to Meyer's prose its characteristic flavor and set him apart among the poetic realists of his period. To start, the linguistic forms of Meyer's metaphorical language are analyzed. Seperate chapters then probe the rich clusters of imagery and focus on their characterizing and structural functions. They reveal how images produce oblique perspectives that give rise to an ironic shadow play between appearance and reality. The conclusion concentrates on Der Heilige, the single work that best exemplifies how images are instrumental in creating the complex weave of Meyer's narrative. The nature of Meyer's imagery points to the new wave of symbolism which was soon to make its impact on German literature.

Book excerpt: This study examines the concept of inspiration in Thomas Mann's major novels and the redemptive possibilities of the artist vis-a-vis his society. Mann's high moral seriousness is revealed in his belief that the artist embodies the society's concealed illness and through his art provides the possibility of a healing catharsis.

Book Synopsis From History to Myth by : Mary A. Cicora
Download or read book From History to Myth written by Mary A. Cicora and published by Peter Lang Group Ag, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 1992 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book places Wagner's Tannhäuser within the German literary tradition. Separate chapters of the book are devoted to discussions of the medieval sources and the analogous works by Ludwig Tieck, E.T.A. Hoffmann, and Heinrich Heine. These studies, which converge on Wagner's opera, not only highlight various aspects or facets of Wagner's Tannhäuser, but at the same time show the transmission of the Tannhäuser and song contest legends into the nineteenth century and how Wagner combined them.
Book Synopsis The Apprenticeship Novel by : Randolph P. Shaffner
Download or read book The Apprenticeship Novel written by Randolph P. Shaffner and published by New York : P. Lang. This book was released on 1984 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idea that a young person can become adept in the art of life by passing through definite stages, until at last he becomes a master, lives at the core of the apprenticeship novel. Recognized among German critics as the «Bildungsroman», this type of novel has yet to be adequately defined on a grand scale for the English reader despite nearly two centuries of its development. In an attempt to describe the apprenticeship novel as a modifiable type in Western literature, Mr. Shaffner combines a theoretical stance with analyses of three concrete examples drawn from over a hundred potential candidates.
