Book Synopsis Europäische Sozietätsbewegung und demokratische Tradition by : Klaus Garber
Download or read book Europäische Sozietätsbewegung und demokratische Tradition written by Klaus Garber and published by de Gruyter. This book was released on 1996 with total page 978 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Die Akademien, Sozietäten und sonstigen gelehrten Vereinigungen waren nicht nur die entscheidenden Agenturen der Akkumulation von Wissen in der Frühen Neuzeit, sondern zugleich vielfältigen kulturpolitischen Aufträgen verpflichtet, die nicht selten in unmittelbare politische Aktionen übergingen, in denen die Handlungsspielräume der vielfach nur locker organisierten Gruppierungen effizient zur Geltung gelangten. Am Modernisierungsprozeß der Frühen Neuzeit sind die Akademien in der Verpflichtung ihrer Mitglieder allein auf sachliche Kompetenz und interkonfessionelle moralische Autorität maßgeblich beteiligt. In symbolischen Interaktionsformen werden quasidemokratische Modelle durchgespielt, die ihre direkte programmatische und politische Einlösung in den bürgerlichen Revolutionen zu Ende des 18. Jahrhunderts erfahren. Das Werk vereinigt vorwiegend Beiträge, die anläßlich der Zweihundertjahrfeier der Französischen Revolution auf einem unter der Schirmherrschaft von Jacques Chirac abgehaltenen internationalen Kongreß 1989 in Paris vorgetragen wurden. Sie werden abgerundet durch ergänzende Studien, die dazu beitragen sollen, dem Charakter des Werkes als eines Handbuchs der europäischen Sozietätsbewegung möglichst nahezukommen, ohne Vollständigkeit in der Erfassung der einschlägigen Institutionen anzustreben. Reichhaltige Literaturangaben, eine umfassende Bibliographie und Register erhöhen den Benutzerwert der für alle historisch-kulturwissenschaftlichen Disziplinen gleich wichtigen gelehrten Sozialisationsagentur der Frühen Neuzeit.

Book Synopsis Hollywood Highbrow by : Shyon Baumann
Download or read book Hollywood Highbrow written by Shyon Baumann and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2018-06-05 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today's moviegoers and critics generally consider some Hollywood products--even some blockbusters--to be legitimate works of art. But during the first half century of motion pictures very few Americans would have thought to call an American movie "art." Up through the 1950s, American movies were regarded as a form of popular, even lower-class, entertainment. By the 1960s and 1970s, however, viewers were regularly judging Hollywood films by artistic criteria previously applied only to high art forms. In Hollywood Highbrow, Shyon Baumann for the first time tells how social and cultural forces radically changed the public's perceptions of American movies just as those forces were radically changing the movies themselves. The development in the United States of an appreciation of film as an art was, Baumann shows, the product of large changes in Hollywood and American society as a whole. With the postwar rise of television, American movie audiences shrank dramatically and Hollywood responded by appealing to richer and more educated viewers. Around the same time, European ideas about the director as artist, an easing of censorship, and the development of art-house cinemas, film festivals, and the academic field of film studies encouraged the idea that some American movies--and not just European ones--deserved to be considered art.

Book Synopsis The German-American Experience by : Don Heinrich Tolzmann
Download or read book The German-American Experience written by Don Heinrich Tolzmann and published by Prometheus Books. This book was released on 2000 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Representing one-fourth of the population, German-Americans constitute the largest ethnic element, according to the U.S. Census, with well over 60 million people claiming German heritage. In twenty-six states, they comprise at least 20 percent of the population, and in five states they number more than 50 percent-important statistics in understanding the role played by German-Americans in U.S. history. The German-American Experience provides a comprehensive record of the essential facts in the history of this group, from its first U.S. settlements in the seventeenth century to the present. Beginning with "The Age of Discovery," this volume explores the earliest contacts between America and Germany, immigration and settlement patterns of Germans, foundations of German-American community life, their major involvement in the American Revolution, and the role German-Americans played in our Civil War. Both world wars are chronicled, including the anti-German sentiment and the internment of German-Americans during both wars. The revival of German heritage and the renaissance of German-American ethnicity since the 1970s is surveyed, along with recent events, including the impact of German unification and the 1990 census. The author also analyzes German-American influences on agriculture, industry, religion, education, music, art, architecture, politics, military service, journalism, literature, and language. In addition, he comments on prominent German-Americans, German names, sister cities, historical statistics, and much more.
