'Humanitas Et Ratio ‘Humanitas et Ratio - Reflections of Ludwig Edelstein’s life and work in his extant epistolary network’ Fiona Jade Howarth Thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of History, Classics and Archaeology Newcastle University February 2015 Abstract This thesis produces an in-depth study of Ludwig Edelstein’s life and work enabled by the use of his correspondence read in the light of his ample scholarly output. Ludwig Edelstein (1902-1965) was an important scholar in the fields of the history of ancient medicine and science, classics, and philosophy, yet his life has not been accorded the interest it merits. This thesis will be the first extensive exploration of the entanglement of Edelstein’s bion and ergon. It will demonstrate the importance of considering life and work within the same sphere. Furthermore, it will underline the value of using correspondence for historiography and the richness of information a biographical study can provide, strengthening the case for more investigations of this kind. The thesis adopts a thematic approach and each chapter will explore Edelstein in a different role; as a dissenter, friend, collaborator, scholar, and teacher. The combined study of Edelstein’s correspondence alongside his published work allows for a more complete understanding of Edelstein’s legacy than has been available thus far. However, Edelstein’s life cannot be separated from its context, and so the thesis will also provide valuable information on a number of other areas including, but not limited to, the history of the disciplines he worked in, the intellectual milieu he was a part of, the ‘red scare’ at American universities, humanist ideals of education, and, via the first portrayal of his wife ever written, the position of female scholars in the first half of the twentieth century. i Acknowledgements Firstly, I would like to thank my supervisor Dr. Thomas Rütten for his wide-ranging and unwavering support during the production of this thesis. He has not only provided abundant intellectual support and guidance, but he has also been a keen source of moral support, encouraging and reassuring me, and bolstering my confidence. His door was always open to me for whatever issue I had, or simply for a caring ear to listen. This thesis would not have existed without him. I also give my thanks for his aid with the translation of some of the foreign language material used within the thesis. I would also like to thank my second supervisor Dr. Rowland Smith for the help and direction he has provided me with. Thanks also go to Dr. Rüdiger Kinsky for his assistance in the transcription of some of the earlier handwritten German letters. I wish to thank the AHRC and Newcastle University for providing the funding which enabled me study for a PhD. Without financial support I received this would be have been impossible, and I am very grateful for this privilege. I would like to thank all the archival staff I contacted from various institutions across the US who aided me in my research and sent me material which has greatly enriched this thesis. In particular I would like to thank Marjorie W. Kehoe from the Alan Mason Chesney Medical Archives, Carol A. Leadenham from the Hoover Institution Archives, Diana Peterson from Haverford College Special Collections, Kathryn Neal from the University Archives at the Bancroft Library, Lee Hiltzik and Patrick Galligan from the Rockefeller Archive Center, Jenifer Brathovde and Bonnie Coles from the Library of Congress, Heather Smedberg from the Mandeville Special Collections Library, and Kay Brown from the University of Washington Libraries. I am extremely grateful to Lorna Green and Audrie and Larry Sturman, Edelstein’s students, who took the time to share their memories with me. I would also like to acknowledge the support of my friends from Newcastle’s PhD community, who provided much needed solidarity. Finally, thanks go to my sisters Rachel Howarth and Laura Barratt for the high levels of patience, love, and care they have demonstrated throughout my extended period of study, for always being there for me when I needed support, and never faltering in their belief in me. ii Table of Contents Abstract ...................................................................................................................................... i Acknowledgements .................................................................................................................. ii Chapter 1.

Geary With a comment by Otto Gerhard Oexle © 1996 by German Historical Institute Annual Lecture Series, No. 8 Edited by Detlef Junker, Petra Marquardt-Bigman and Janine S. Micunck ______________ GERMAN HISTORICAL INSTITUTE 1607 New Hampshire Avenue, N.W. Washington, DC 20009, USA MEDIEVAL GERMANY IN AMERICA Patrick J. Geary WAS THERE ANYTHING TO LEARN? American Historians and German Medieval Scholarship: A Comment Otto Gerhard Oexle Preface For the first time since the founding of the German Historical Institute in 1987, the topic of the 1995 Annual Lecture addressed the German Middle Ages—as perceived through American eyes. We invited two distinguished scholars from the United States and Germany, and their presentations made this evening a truly special event. In his lecture, Professor Patrick J. Geary traced the influence of German medievalists, especially their methods and historiography, on American academia. During the second half of the nineteenth century, German scholarship came to be regarded as an exemplary model, owing to its scholarly excellence. However, within a few decades, German medieval scholarship's function as a model for American academics declined. Professor Geary gave an engaging account of this development and offered at the same time an absorbing analysis of how the perception and interpreta- tion of German medieval history by American historians were shaped by their attempt to explain American history.

Es waren zwar die Humanisten, die nach Kenntnis der griechischen Handschriften im Abend- land sich als erste an die Ausgabe der griechischen medizinischen Texte im Original machten — erinnert sei hier nur an die griechische Ausgabe der Texte des Hippokrates durch lanus Cornarius 1538, nur kurz nach dem Erstdruck, oder an die Erstausgabe der Werke Galens 1525 durch Giovanni Battista Opizo —, beide waren jedoch auch rzte und ihr Interesse war zu- n chst von der Praxis her motiviert.

It challenges simplistic notions of Central Europe as a periphery to the medieval ‘West’, or, equally, a border between barbarity and civilization; an area of a lively convergence of different ethnic groups, and a socially and culturally framed common space; a point where different ‘Others’ met, or an intermediary ‘bridge’ between the Roman Catholicism and Latinity of the West, and the Slavic Orthodoxy and Hellenism of the Byzantine East.

  • Ernst Kantorowicz
    © Copyright, Princeton University Press. No part of this book may be distributed, posted, or reproduced in any form by digital or mechanical means without prior written permission of the publisher. Introduction A medieval historian appears as a character in a German novel of 1960, Die Rolltreppe (The Escalator). He is the author of a biography of the Hohen- staufen emperor Frederick II and a member of the esoteric circle around the poet Stefan George. During the First World War he had served in Anatolia on the staff of General Liman von Sanders. One scene in the novel is set in 1928 in an elegant Roman restaurant, “Ranieri.” The director of the Prussian Historical Institute is hosting a dinner for a small group consisting of a museum director, a prominent industrialist, and the noted historian. They dine off baked scampi, breast of turkey with artichokes, red endive salad (“particularly fine for the sea- son”), a cheese soufflé (“specialty of the house”), fruit, and coffee. The courses are accompanied by a Barolo, a Frascati, and an Asti Spumante.1 The historian, here called “Witkowski,” is transparently Ernst Kantorowicz (pronounced “Kantor- Ovitch”), who did live in Rome in 1928, did patronize the restaurant in question, and did greatly enjoy Rome’s “sensational Frascati bianco.”2 Later in the novel “Witkowski” appears wearing “a white tropical suit and off-w hite shirt with a red velvet tie,”3 and a photo taken in the same period (fig. 1) shows Kantorowicz in similar attire, with the addition of a white bucket hat and white gloves.

RESUMO: Esta dissertação objetiva analisar como a obra de Ernst Kantorowicz, Kaiser Friedrich der Zweite, relaciona-se com a fundamentação da identidade nacional alemã durante os anos da República de Weimar. Ernst Kantorowicz foi membro do Círculo de Stefan George, um dos principais movimentos culturais da Alemanha durante as três primeiras décadas do século XX. Por isso, é indispensável apresentar as contribuições do Círculo de Stefan George para as discussões acerca da História e de sua escrita. A análise da obra de Kantorowicz encontra-se indissociada das propostas vinculadas pelo Círculo de Stefan George. Este trabalho está divido em três capítulos: o primeiro abarca o poeta, Stefan George, e a formação de seu Círculo. O segundo apresenta as ideias do Círculo sobre o conhecimento histórico e os principais conceitos formulados por alguns membros do Círculo de George.

  • Zwischen Bewunderung Und Verachtung
    Umbr_VuF62 11.07.2005 14:28 Uhr Seite 175 Zwischen Bewunderung und Verachtung Französische und deutsche Mediävistik seit dem letzten Kriege VON WERNER PARAVICINI 1. Verachtung Fangen wir mit der Verachtung an.1) Der Schauplatz: die Wasserstufen von S. Giorgio Maggiore, angesichts der Piazzetta, wo ich vor dreißig Jahren mit Fernand Braudel einige Worte wechseln konnte. Er war zum Jubiläumskolloquium der Erinnerung an die Schlacht von Lepanto von 1571 nach Venedig gekommen. Vom Frühneuzeithistoriker Michel Fran- çois war die Rede. Nicht einmal leise gab Braudel sein Urteil ab: »Il est bête, mais qu’est- ce qu’il est bête!« lautete es, unwiderruflich – was mich damals einigermaßen erstaunte. In- zwischen weiß ich, daß solche Urteile bei ihm keine Seltenheit waren. Ähnlich äußerte er sich zu Karl Ferdinand Werner über den Genter Mediävisten François-Louis Ganshof.2) Verachtet wurde das membre de l’Institut, Mitglied der gelehrten, konservativen Acadé- mie des Inscriptions et Belles-Lettres, Direktor der traditionsreichen École des Chartes,3) Generalsekretär des Internationalen Historikerverbandes.4) Verachtet wurde als Quellen- fetischist der kapitularienfressende belgische Kollege. Ob Braudel dergleichen auch über deutsche Historiker gesagt hat, ist mir nicht zu Ohren gekommen. Aber es würde mich nicht wundern. 1) Danken möchte ich Florian Henke (Freiburg i.Br.), Kathrin Höckel (München), Jan Jansen (Freiburg i.Br.), Christian Speer (Dresden) und Christian Wenke (Mainz), die mir während ihrer Zeit als Praktikan- ten im Deutschen Historischen Institut Paris geholfen haben, und Peter Schöttler (Paris/Berlin) für seine kritische und bereichernde Lektüre des gesamten Texts. 2) K.F.

While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material.
