Contemplating the Revolution Contemplating the Revolution: Ethics, Culture, and History in German Political Thought, 1789-1815 Morgan Alexander Golf-French UCL Submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy 2019 1 I, Morgan Golf-French, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. 2 Abstract This thesis examines the important roles played by a range of historical works in German political debates during the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic period. It uses texts across a range of genres and focuses on questions around the nature of ethics, culture, political communities, race, progress, and Enlightenment. Engaging with current controversies concerning these themes in the German Enlightenment, this thesis indicates crucial nuances in the relationships between continuity and innovation in contemporary historiography. In addition, it offers significant new understandings of the work of four leading intellectuals: August Ludwig Schlözer (1735-1809), Christoph Meiners (1747-1810), Johann Gottfried Eichhorn (1752-1827), and Charles de Villers (1765-1815). The first chapter analyzes conceptions of the historical role of philosophical thought, and especially the disputes surrounding the works of Immanuel Kant and Johann Gottlieb Fichte. Schlözer, Meiners, Eichhorn, and Villers responded to these debates by emphasizing the politicized nature of different approaches to metaphysics and its history. The second chapter examines ideas about natural law, cultural difference, and the concept of 'race'. As well as reappraising the ideas and intellectual relationships of key thinkers on these subjects, this chapter demonstrates that, contrary to previous claims, notions of cultural difference were often closely linked to theories of natural law. The third chapter considers accounts of the emergence of European modernity. It demonstrates how German thinkers responded to the circumstances of Revolutionary and Napoleonic Europe by significantly revising earlier variations of 'the Enlightened narrative'. 3 Examining these debates reveals the significance of ideas about history, ethics, and culture in German political thought during the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic period. By indicating the different ways that these notions could be conceptualized and politicized, this thesis offers new insights into both the diverse meanings of Enlightenment during a period of European crisis, and the major transformations in contemporary German thought. 4 Table of Contents Abstract 3 Table of Contents 5 Impact Statement 9 Acknowledgements 10 Introduction 13 0.1.

Focusing on the work of four important – but under- researched – thinkers active during the Revolutionary and Napoleonic period, this thesis examines many of the most important and controversial concepts of the Enlightenment in their original contexts. As well as 'Enlightenment' itself, these include culture, ethics, human nature, European modernity, and race. The present- day forms of these ideas have continuing relevance in both academia and beyond. As this thesis shows, these concepts were hotly contested in the Enlightenment. Authors debated not just what these terms referred to, but also how they should be studied and what their social and political implications were. The multiplicity of different approaches to these problems reflects the diversity of contemporary thought and the need for caution when making claims about the legacy of the Enlightenment. Crucially, the distance between how contemporaries conceived these ideas and how they are conceived today reflects the problematic nature of projecting present-day concerns on to earlier periods and movements. By focusing on historical works across a range of genres, this thesis also reveals the prominence of history-writing in German political thought in this period. It stresses the diverse ways that 9 history could be harnessed in response to pressing political concerns, such as debates about slavery or the nature of Europe. Indeed, this thesis indicates how innovative methods for the study of the past were often closely tied to profound political concerns. While examining a period of European crisis and upheaval, this thesis also emphasizes continuity: the novel approaches of the German late Enlightenment continued to utilize and adapt older ideas and methods. This has important implications for how we think about the transformations of Enlightenment thought, and yields a nuanced interpretation of contemporary intellectual innovation. The European Enlightenment remains a controversial notion both inside and outside academia. This thesis aims to contribute to on-going scholarly debates on the historiography of the Enlightenment, as well as offering insights into the emergence and transformation of crucial concepts with relevance to broader public discourse. Acknowledgements I would like to express my deepest thanks to all of the people who have made finishing this thesis possible. My primary supervisor, Professor Avi Lifschitz, has offered incredible support and advice since I first met him in 2013. His insight, encouragement, and wisdom have been essential in the transformation of this project from scattered ideas to final draft. My second supervisor, Professor Axel Körner has consistently offered important and challenging perspectives on my work that have been crucial to my growth as a researcher. My interest in intellectual history began in 2010 with a course taught by Dr. Angus Gowland on the history of political 10 thought. The opportunity to teach on that same course during my PhD has been invaluable, as has been his steadfast support and encouragement. Funding from the UCL Postgraduate Research Scholarship made this thesis possible in the first place.

Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo São Paulo 2005 0 RESUMO O presente trabalho trata da seguinte hipótese: Leibniz pode ter sido uma fonte de influência para o direito brasileiro? Para realizar tal investigação, examinamos com uma visão crítica a obra jurídica de dois autores: Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz e Augusto Teixeira de Freitas. E o fizemos propondo duas situações que normalmente não são encontradas em trabalhos do gênero. Investigamos a obra jurídica de Leibniz porque embora seu nome seja muito conhecido pelo seu legado filosófico, ele foi também jurista citado como influência. Todavia, seus escritos sobre direito são pouco estudados. Em seguida, estudamos a obra de um jurista brasileiro do ponto de vista da história da ciência. Teixeira de Freitas foi muito importante na época de formação da ciência jurídica brasileira porque ele foi o autor da Consolidação das Leis Civis e do Esboço de Código Civil, textos que foram fundamentais para a teoria e para a prática do direito no Brasil no século XIX. Tratamos de apurar o que Leibniz escreveu em matéria de direito, o que há disponível traduzido para o português ou não, e o que pode ser encontrado na Biblioteca da Faculdade de Direito de São Paulo.

    chapter 7 Men, Monsters and the History of Mankind in Vattel’s Law of Nations Pärtel Piirimäe 1 Introduction Emer de Vattel has been widely considered a seminal figure in the European tradition of the law of nations. While attaching himself to the earlier tradition of natural jurisprudence, he offered a normative system of the law of nations that was more firmly and explicitly anchored to the political practice of his contemporary Europe than were the doctrines of his predecessors. Vattel pro- moted the practical applicability of his Droit des gens (1758), stressing that it was not so much written for interested ‘private individuals’, i.e. other scholars or the general public, but it was a ‘law of sovereigns’ that was primarily in- tended for ‘them and their ministers’. It would not help much, he explained, if his maxims were studied only by those who had no influence over public affairs; the ‘conductors of states’, on the other hand, if they chose to learn this science and adopt its maxims as the ‘compass’ for their policies, could produce many ‘happy results’.1 Vattel emphasized the easy comprehension and applica- bility of his book, contrasting his approach with that of Christian Wolff, whose treatise on the law of nations could be understood only if one ‘previously stud- ied sixteen or seventeen quarto volumes which precede it’.2 As Vattel famous- ly declared, his original intention was to introduce Wolff’s system to a wider readership, by rendering his rigid and formal work more ‘agreeable and better calculated to ensure it a reception in the polite world’.3 While it is clear that Vattel’s work amounted to much more than a system- atic account of Wolff’s principles,4 it is in the manner of presentation that the differences between the two scholars are the most striking.

  • A Consideration of the Educational and Illuminative Function of the Actor in Richard Wagner’S Essay on the Actor and Singer
    85 A Consideration of the Educational and Illuminative Function of the Actor in Richard Wagner’s Essay On the Actor and Singer Asuka YAMAZAKI Abstract This paper addresses the essay On the Actor and Singer (Über Schauspieler und Sänger) (1872) by Richard Wagner, the nineteenth-century German composer, and investigates his views on the national educational and illuminative function of the actor. Conventional research has not regarded how Wagner valued, from a viewpoint of cultural nationalism, the actor’s important abilities and function. Wagner realized the actor’s cooperativity and artistry in German theater, and recognized him not only as a mere medium between artwork and audience, but also as a teacher who has a didactic effect on the audience. In his relationships with actors, Wagner paid attention especially to their acting capabilities and recitation techniques. From the viewpoint of theater history and artistic discussions of the nineteenth century, this paper discusses how Wagner also emphasized the actor’s function and educational effect as a teacher as entailing an advanced acting technique and perfor- mance. Furthermore, in the context of Hegel’s aesthetics and Schopenhauer’s philosophy, Wagner considered how actors’ “self-abandonment” realized a high order of art and didactic effect. We can see here a new image of the actor, built by Wagner in his conception of total art, as a public person who connected to the actor’s mechanical function in the dramatic staging of the age of the “director’s theater” (Regietheater) of the avant-garde. Keywords: Wagner, modern German theater, actor, education, national theater Introduction Gotthold Ephraim Lessing, the eighteenth-century German dramatist, in his Letters Concerning the Latest Literature Letters (Briefe, die neueste Literatur betreffend, 1759–1765), described the situa- tion of German theater in those days as follows: We don’t have a theater.

  • Illuminati Conspiracy Part One: a Precise Exegesis on the Available Evidence
    http://www.conspiracyarchive.com/NWO/Illuminati.htm Illuminati Conspiracy Part One: A Precise Exegesis on the Available Evidence - by Terry Melanson, Aug. 5th, 2005 Illuminati Conspiracy Part Two: Sniffing out Jesuits A Metaprogrammer at the Door of Chapel Perilous In the literature that concerns the Illuminati relentless speculation abounds. No other secret society in recent history - with the exception of Freemasonry - has generated as much legend, hysteria, and disinformation. I first became aware of the the Illuminati about 14 years ago. Shortly thereafter I read a book, written by Robert Anton Wilson, called Cosmic Trigger: Final Secret of the Illuminati. Wilson published it in 1977 but his opening remarks on the subject still ring true today: Briefly, the background of the Bavarian Illuminati puzzle is this. On May 1, 1776, in Bavaria, Dr. Adam Weishaupt, a professor of Canon Law at Ingolstadt University and a former Jesuit, formed a secret society called the Order of the Illuminati within the existing Masonic lodges of Germany. Since Masonry is itself a secret society, the Illuminati was a secret society within a secret society, a mystery inside a mystery, so to say. In 1785 the Illuminati were suppressed by the Bavarian government for allegedly plotting to overthrow all the kings in Europe and the Pope to boot. This much is generally agreed upon by all historians. 1 Everything else is a matter of heated, and sometimes fetid, controversy. It has been claimed that Dr. Weishaupt was an atheist, a Cabalistic magician, a rationalist, a mystic; a democrat, a socialist, an anarchist, a fascist; a Machiavellian amoralist, an alchemist, a totalitarian and an "enthusiastic philanthropist." (The last was the verdict of Thomas Jefferson, by the way.) The Illuminati have also been credited with managing the French and American revolutions behind the scenes, taking over the world, being the brains behind Communism, continuing underground up to the 1970s, secretly worshipping the Devil, and mopery with intent to gawk.
