Timeline / Before 1800 to 1840 / GERMANY Timeline / Before 1800 to 1840 / GERMANY Date Country Theme 1700 - 1750s Germany Fine And Applied Arts "Palace Schwetzingen" is bulit and flourised under the Palatine Prince Elector Carl Theodor. The baroque castle complex includes more than 100 sculptures and a "Türkischer Garten" ("Turkish Garden") with a mosque, biult from 1779 to 1791, that makes it the earliest mosque- style in Germany and the largest structure of its kind in a german garden. It was designed by Nicolas de Pigage. However the oriental details are not for religious but for decorative purposes. 1700 - 1750s Germany Cities And Urban Spaces The newly built Palace of Schwetzingen (built on the site of a former palace that actually dates back to 1350) flourishes under the Palatine Prince Elector Karl Theodor. Today a heritage site of great cultural significance, it contains some 100 sculptures and is known for its Türkischer Garten, a garden in the Turkish style with a mosque (constructed 1779–91 and the earliest mosque-style and largest structure of its kind in any German garden), designed by French architect Nicolas de Pigage and with “Oriental” details that are for decorative purposes only. During the 18th and 19th Germany Travelling centuries Travellers from Europe approached the notion of the Near East with dreams of a “holy world” and “treasuries of wisdom”. The European desire for the “Orient” arose partly as a result of the Enlightenment, which since the 1800s had already changed the public psyche, filtering down from the rationalism of intellectuals to the scientification of the public. In addition, the many wars of the period, especially the Napoleonic Wars, produced in the people nostalgia; a desire for distance, the unknown, and the halcyon days of the past. Romantic-era authors and philosophers, much disturbed by these very topics (e.g. Friedrich Schlegel), thus attempted to escape into something magical – the “Orient” seemed to them, and their readers, an ideal imaginary world. 1745 - 1747 Germany Cities And Urban Spaces Prussian King Friedrick II commissions G. W. von Knobelsdorff to build Sanssouci Palace in Potsdam. 1769 - 1785 Germany Music, Literature, Dance And Fashion The era of Sturm und Drang (Storm and Stress) in literature (i.e. the works of Goethe, Schiller, Hölderlin and Herder) is characterised by lyricism, fantasy, freedom, juvenility and idealism, which is felt most keenly in the dramatic writing of the period. 1770 - 1830 Germany Fine And Applied Arts The painting by Johann Heinrich Wilhelm Tischbein, Goethe in der Campagna (1786/87), exemplifies Classicism in art at this time. 1772 - 1807 Germany Cities And Urban Spaces Date Country Theme Karl Eugen, Duke of Wittenberg, built three important palaces: one in the centre of Stuttgart, Neues Schloss (1746–1807); Schloss Solitude (1763–9); and Schloss Hohenheim (1772–93). Around 1800 Germany Travelling The wealthiest among the bourgeoisie begin to undertake more exploratory and scientific journeys to “discover” the rest of the world. 1786 - 1832 Germany Music, Literature, Dance And Fashion The Classical era in literature (i.e. the work of Goethe, Schiller, Wieland and Herder) is characterised by a will to preserve beauty, maintain goodness in order to gain harmony, and sees nature as an entity. The centre for this movement in literature is the city of Weimar. 1789 - 1791 Germany Travelling The Brandenburg Gate is built, today it a famous landmark of German reunification. 1790 - 1840 Germany Fine And Applied Arts The painting by Caspar David Friedrich, Der Wanderer über dem Nebelmeer (1818), exemplifies Romanticism in art at this time. Around 1800 Germany Music, Literature, Dance And Fashion "Disire for the orient" arises because of the breakovers around 1800, as the Enlightenment already had changed peoples life to a more rationalistic way of thinking and the scientification of the public. Also the sumless wars, especially the Napoleonic Wars, produced nostalgia and desire for the distance, the unknown, the paradise... Authors and philosophers from the era of romanticism bothered this topics (e.g. Friedrich Schlegel) and they tried to escape into something magical- the orient seemed to be a imaginary world. Beginning of 19th century Germany Cities And Urban Spaces Garden cities – planned urbanisation to overcome the housing crises in growing cities –come into vogue. Examples include Margarethenhöhe in Essen, Dresden- Hellerau and Dresden-Briesnitz. 1802 Germany Rediscovering The Past The first Chair of Archaeology is appointed at the Christian-Albrechts-Universität in Kiel. 1806 Germany Political Context The twin battles of Jena and Auerstedt are fought – in the midst of the collapse of the Prussian State and abolition of the Holy Roman Empire by Kaiser Franz II – under pressure from Napoleon Bonaparte. 1809 Germany Reforms And Social Changes Date Country Theme Establishment of Berlin’s first university, the Humboldt-Universität. 1812 - 1817 Germany Travelling John Lewis Burckhardt from Switzerland journeyed to the “Orient”, especially to Aleppo in Syria, to study the Near East and Islam. While there, under the pseudonym Sheikh Ibrahim ibn ‘Abd-Allah and living as a Muslim businessman, he not only translated from English to Arabic Daniel Defoe’s Robinson Crusoe, but also rediscovered the city of Petra (Jordan) in 1812. 1813 - 1815 Germany Political Context The Liberation Wars (and the decisive Battle of Leipzig in 1913) were between Napoleon Bonaparte’s French troops and Central Europe; Napoleon is overthrown. 1814 - 1815 Germany Political Context The Wiener Kongress (Congress of Vienna) saw the restoration of the political state (the 1792 Ancien Régime), realignment of the borders, and creation of a loosely arranged German Bund (Federation). 1814 - 1815 Germany Reforms And Social Changes The Wiener Kongress (Congress of Vienna) decides on territorial realignment and the constitutional restoration of Europe. 1816 - 1830 Germany Fine And Applied Arts Architect Karl Friedrich Schinkel engraved a certain style on Berlin, starting with the Neue Wache (New Guardhouse, 1816–18) and followed by the Konzerthaus at Berlin’s Gandarmenmarkt (1818–21). Opposite the Lustgarten (Pleasure gardens) on what is now known as Museum Island in Berlin, Schinkel built the first royal museum, the Altes Museum (opened 1830), marking the beginning of the Island’s history. 1817 Germany Reforms And Social Changes Rise of the Wartburgfest, an assembly of radical students who want to implement the idea of a German National State. 1818 Germany Reforms And Social Changes Arthur Schopenhauer publishes Die Welt als Wille und Vorstellung (The World as Will and Representation is the title of the latest, 2008, English translation; the first was published in 1883).The second, expanded German edition appeared in 1944. 1819 Germany Political Context The Karlsbader Beschlüsse (Carlsbad Decrees) was intended to suppress liberal and national movements through censorship of the press and political persecution. 1820 - 1825 Germany Rediscovering The Past Date Country Theme The German naturalists and explorers Wilhelm Friedrich Hemprich and Christian Gottfried Ehrenberg embark on a research tour in cooperation with Martin Lichtenstein (who published Reisen im südlichen Afrika (Tourism in Southern Africa) in 1810 and was appointed director of the Berlin Zoological Museum in 1813) from Cairo to Derna in Libya, along the Nile, and through the Sinai Desert and Lebanon, collecting natural and historical specimens. 1822 - 1829 Germany Political Context The War between Greece and the Ottoman Empire concludes with Greece attaining its independence with the help of Russia and the Western nations. 1824 - 1829 Germany Cities And Urban Spaces Rosenstein Palace is built by Giovanni Salucci under Wilhelm I; it has been a public museum since 1954. 1830 - 1840 Germany Economy And Trade Industrialisation and the Industrial Revolution. 1830 Germany Reforms And Social Changes The French July Revolution strengthens the power of the Besitzbürgertum (the landed gentry). Revolutions in central and north Germany enforce constitutional state reforms. 1832 Germany Political Context From 27 to 30 May an apparently non-political country fair, the “Hambacher Fest”, was held by a German national democratic assembly, demanding freedom, national entity and popular sovereignty. 1832 Germany Reforms And Social Changes The “Hambacher Fest” demonstrates the liberal, democratic and national opposition in Germany. 1833 Germany Great Inventions Of The 19th Century First communication by telegram. 1834 Germany Reforms And Social Changes Standardisation of the Abitur (equivalent to the A-Level system used elsewhere) which allows students to enter German universities. 1834 Germany Travelling The Sanssouci Palace in Potsdam is connected to Berlin by rail, one of the first electrified railway sections in Old Germany. Since 1911, the Palace has been used as a film location (i.e. The Blue Angel, 1930). Date Country Theme 1835 - 1838 Germany Cities And Urban Spaces The first section of railway is established between Nürnberg and Fürth (6 km); the building of the long-haul between Leipzig and Dresden is finished in 1838..

It is primarily designed to offer an introduction to the most important periods and movements in German literary history. It also serves as an introduction to key methods of literary interpretation and tools for understanding literary genres such as poetry, drama, and narrative. In a broad approach, we will interpret literary works against the backdrop of German history, the arts and sciences, politics, and economics. Students will become familiar with important resources and research tools in the field. The class will be conducted primarily in German, and coursework will specifically advance oral and written proficiency in the German language. In addition to reading original works of German literature, there will be background lectures on their political and historical contexts. During the first half of the semester, we will explore the Middle Ages, Reformation, and Baroque periods (800-1700, roughly), and will treat a wide variety of examples, while in the second half of the semester we will focus on the Enlightenment and Storm and Stress periods (18th century), reading at greater length such classics as Lessing’s Emilia Galotti and Goethe’s Die Leiden des jungen Werthers. We shall conclude the semester with a glance at the Classical period and selected texts by Friedrich Schiller.

  • PROMETHEUS, Von GOETHE TEXTANALYSE Als Der Schriftsteller Aus Frankfurt Am Main Diese Hymne Komponierte , Hatte Er an Ein Drama
    PROMETHEUS, von GOETHE TEXTANALYSE Als der Schriftsteller aus Frankfurt am Main diese Hymne komponierte, hatte er an ein Drama gedacht, das den Helden der Tragödie von Aischylos feiert, die leider nie vollendet wurde. Dennoch ist diese Komposition wichtig, nicht nur, weil sie dem Leser einen beispiellosen Ausdruck von Goethes sturmundranghianischer Zeit bietet, sondern auch, weil sich der Autor mit den beiden mythischen Figuren Prometheus und Jupiter mit unterschiedlichen Themen auseinandersetzt und gleichzeitig tief empfunden wird, besonders in der Zeit vor seinem Umzug nach Weimar. Zu b emerken ist zunächst , dass diese monologische Hymne keineswegs eine Ode an den Jupiter ist , sondern einen Akt der Rebellion gegen ihn darstellt . Prometheus als Akt der Rebellion Prometheus erhebt sich nicht nur gegen die höchste Gottheit , sondern auch gegen alles , was dies in seinen Augen darstellt : Täuschung , Lüge : Im zweiten Vers, vv 15-21 ist die Rebellion lesbar: Hier stellt Goethe, der in der Figur des Helden der griechischen Mythologie gesehen und reflektiert wird, den Jupiter offen in Frage, stellt sich auf die gleiche Ebene wie er selbst und zeigt gleichzeitig seine starke Tendenz zur Selbstbestimmung u nd Unabhängigkeit von der Göttlichkeit . Schon vom ersten Vers an kann man den Akt der Ungehorsamkeit und Rebellion des jungen Goethe/Prometeo gegen den Jupiter lesen, der um die Schöpferkraft seines “Untergeben” beneidet wird: ASPEKTE von Sturm und Drang DIE GLUT Der Bezug auf das Feuer, auf das, was brennt, was brennt, ist typisch für die Kompositionen der Autoren von Sturm und Drang, die mehr als viele andere Intellektuelle und Schriftsteller den Funken poetischer Schöpfung in sich spüren.

  • THE EARLY LITERARY CRITICISM of WALTER BENJAMIN by Renk Wellek
    THE EARLY LITERARY CRITICISM OF WALTER BENJAMIN by Renk Wellek In 1968, with an essay first published in The New Yorker, Hannah Arendt stimulated American interest in Walter Benjamin. He had been almost totally forgotten in Germany until Theodor W. Adorno literally unearthed him with the publication of a two-volume collection of Schriften (Frankfurt, 1955). A selection of Benjamin's essays, Illuminations, translated by Harry Zohn with Hannah Arendt's introduction, gave occasion to a fine article by Robert Alter (in Commentary, 49 [1970], 86-93) which disputed Hannah Arendt's emphasis. This is about all that is worth reading about Benjamin in English. In French a different selection of Benjamin's essays published in 1959, also called Illuminations, excited little interest except for a cloudy essay by Pierre Missac in Critique (23 [1969], 692-710). In German there is now a large body of comment, partly collected in a little Suhrkamp volume, Uber Walter Benjamin (1968). An elaborate thesis by Rolf Tiede- mann, Studien zur Philosophie Walter Benjamins (1965), remains the most useful contribution to a study of Benjamin also because of its detailed bibliography. A two-volume collection of his Briefe (1966) made his intellec- tual development much more comprehensible and we are promised a new much fulIer edition of his writings containing many unpublished manu- scripts. One article, Manfred Durzak7s"Walter Benjamin und die Literatur- wissenschaft" (in Monatsheffe, 58 [1966], 217-23 1) overlaps with the theme of this paper though it limits itself mainly to an exposition of Benjamin's only booksize publication, Ursprung des deutschen Trauerspiels.
