Bohemianism Outside Paris 2 ARS 2/201 Authored mainly by Slovak historians of the post-Communist era and edited by Mikuláš Teich (Robinson College in Cambridge), Dušan Kováč (Slovak Academy of Sciences in Bratislava) and Martin D. Brown (The American International University in London), this collection of essays is the first book written in English that covers the history of Slovakia from the Middle Ages to the establishment of independent Slovak Republic on January 1, 1993. Ivan Gerát’s new book (in Slovak) bears witness to a continuation of his research of metamorphoses of the legends of saints in the area of the medieval Kingdom of Hungary in the European context – after the book on St. Elisabeth of Hungary (2009), he looks now closer at the holy warriors, St. George and St. Ladislas. Beside a number of quality and illustrative figures, the book is also [ ] equipped with a catalogue of narrative image cycles of the saints preserved in Slovakia (description, [ ] locality, present state), altogether 35 sites. ars 2012 Ročník / Volume 45 Číslo / Number 2 Obsah / Contents ÚVOD / INTRODUCTION Katarzyna MURAWSKA-MUTHESIUS Bohemianism outside Paris.

    IDENTITIES BOUGHT AND SOLD, IDENTITY RECEIVED AS GRACE: A THEOLOGICAL CRITICISM OF AND ALTERNATIVE TO CONSUMERIST UNDERSTANDINGS OF THE SELF By James Burton Fulmer Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Vanderbilt University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in Religion December, 2006 Nashville, Tennessee Approved: Professor Paul DeHart Professor Douglas Meeks Professor William Franke Professor David Wood Professor Patout Burns ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank all the members of my committee—Professors Paul DeHart, Douglas Meeks, William Franke, David Wood, and Patout Burns—for their support and guidance and for providing me with excellent models of scholarship and mentoring. In particular, I am grateful to Prof. DeHart for his careful, insightful, and challenging feedback throughout the writing process. Without him, I would have produced a dissertation on identity in which my own identity and voice were conspicuously absent. He never tried to control my project but rather always sought to make it more my own. Special thanks also to Prof. Franke for his astute observations and comments and his continual interest in and encouragement of my project. I greatly appreciate the help and support of friends and family. My mom, Arlene Fulmer, was a generous reader and helpful editor. James Sears has been a great friend throughout this process and has always led me to deeper thinking on philosophical and theological matters. Jimmy Barker, David Dault, and Eric Froom provided helpful conversation as well as much-needed breaks. All my colleagues in theology helped with valuable feedback as well.

Deneen, Georgetown University The Political Companions to Great American Authors series illuminates the complex political thought of the nation’s most celebrated writers from the founding era to the present. The goals of the series are to demonstrate how American political thought is understood and represented by great Ameri- can writers and to describe how our polity’s understanding of fundamental principles such as democracy, equality, freedom, toleration, and fraternity has been influenced by these canonical authors. The series features a broad spectrum of political theorists, philoso- phers, and literary critics and scholars whose work examines classic authors and seeks to explain their continuing influence on American political, social, intellectual, and cultural life. This series reappraises esteemed American authors and evaluates their writings as lasting works of art that continue to inform and guide the American democratic experiment.

  • 1 PERSPECTIVE a Philosophical Memoir: Notes on Bhaskar, Realism
    PERSPECTIVE A Philosophical Memoir: Notes on Bhaskar, Realism and Cultural Theory1 John Roberts University of Wolverhampton, UK I first read Roy Bhaskar in Radical Philosophy in 1980, when ‘Scientific Explanation and Human Emancipation’ appeared.2 But when Bhaskar’s work cropped up in Art & Language’s writing in the early 1980s I resolved to read his A Realist Theory of Science (1975) and The Possibility of Naturalism (1979).3 I remember buying both from the excellent philosophy section of the old Compendium Books store in Camden Town. Art & Language were (probably) the first artists and art-theorists to recognise the critical importance of Bhaskar’s writing for a non-reductive account of realism in relation to art and cultural theory, given their general familiarity with debates in the philosophy of science and Anglo-American philosophy of language. W.V.O. Quine and Nelson Goodman, for instance, were part of the group’s daily conversational practices as artists during this period.4 Indeed, given their familiarity with the issues of intention, intension, the causal theory of representation (of- relations) the critique of empiricism and their general grounding in analytic philosophy and Boolean formal logic, the group were certainly well placed to develop Bhaskar’s own ground-breaking critique of empiricism in the philosophy of science, and push it in a productive cultural direction. Bhaskar became a crucial mediating figure between the ‘post-metaphysical’ interrogative mechanics of the analytic tradition and the genealogical-materialist

  • The Concept of Bildung in Early German Romanticism
    CHAPTER 6 The Concept of Bildung in Early German Romanticism 1. Social and Political Context In 1799 Friedrich Schlegel, the ringleader of the early romantic circle, stated, with uncommon and uncharacteristic clarity, his view of the summum bonum, the supreme value in life: “The highest good, and [the source of] ev- erything that is useful, is culture (Bildung).”1 Since the German word Bildung is virtually synonymous with education, Schlegel might as well have said that the highest good is education. That aphorism, and others like it, leave no doubt about the importance of education for the early German romantics. It is no exaggeration to say that Bildung, the education of humanity, was the central goal, the highest aspiration, of the early romantics. All the leading figures of that charmed circle—Friedrich and August Wilhelm Schlegel, W. D. Wackenroder, Friedrich von Hardenberg (Novalis), F. W. J. Schelling, Ludwig Tieck, and F. D. Schleiermacher—saw in education their hope for the redemption of humanity. The aim of their common journal, the Athenäum, was to unite all their efforts for the sake of one single overriding goal: Bildung.2 The importance, and indeed urgency, of Bildung in the early romantic agenda is comprehensible only in its social and political context. The young romantics were writing in the 1790s, the decade of the cataclysmic changes wrought by the Revolution in France. Like so many of their generation, the romantics were initially very enthusiastic about the Revolution. Tieck, Novalis, Schleiermacher, Schelling, Hölderlin, and Friedrich Schlegel cele- brated the storming of the Bastille as the dawn of a new age.

CHAPTER 8 Bohemians Greenwich Village and The Masses Joanna Levin Ever since Rodolphe, Henri Murger's prototypical struggling writer, stood before the grave of Mimi, his lost love and partner in the romance of bohemia, crying, "Oh my youth, it is you that is being buried," la vie boheme has represented a fabled transitional period between youth and mature adulthood in many an individual life, memoir, and Bildungsroman (Seigel 45). Similarly, ever since its inception in the wake of the 1830 Rev­ olution in France, bohemianism - as a larger subcultural movement has flourished during periods of historical transition. It was in the tumultuous lead-up to the Civil War that la vie boheme first took root in the United States (in a basement beer hall beneath the sidewalks of Broadway and Bleecker and on the pages of the New York Saturday Press), but it was dur­ ing the 1910s, the decade known for ushering in a host of radical and mod­ ernist movements, that bohemia assumed its most famous American form in New York City's Greenwich Village.

  • Robert Schoelkopf Gallery, New York
    ERNEST FREDERICK MEYER (1863-1952) New York Street Scene Oil on board 5 ¾ x 8 inches Signed lower right Provenance: Robert Schoelkopf Gallery, New York Ernest Frederick Meyer was born in Rothenberg, Germany in 1863. However, he spent the majority of his life in America, particularly in New York City, while also establishing a residence in Connecticut. Meyer studied with American painters such as, John Henry Twachtman, James Carroll Beckwith, Frank Vincent, DuMond, Charles Henry Turner, and most notably, William Merritt Chase. Chase became a close friend to, and profound influence on, Meyer, who studied with Chase at his Tenth Street Studio in Greenwich Village and Shinnecock Summer School of Art, in the Southampton area of Long Island.1 While Meyer is best known for his landscapes, this painting is representative of his body of work depicting daily life in more urban settings, such as the streets of Lower Manhattan and Brooklyn. Ernest Meyer, Greenwich Village, undated, 24 x 30 Ernest Meyer, Flower Market, Willoughby Street, inches, oil on canvas, private collection.2 undated, 25 x 30 inches, oil on canvas, private collection.3 This picture is likely set in Manhattan, possibly near the Greenwich Village area where he studied with Chase. The large mass of figures that crowd the street and sidewalk suggest a type of gathering or celebration. The red brushstrokes that emblazon the façade of the building to the right further indicate the subject as a special occasion or spectacle. Indeed, the daubs of red are echoed throughout the crowd, suggesting a sort of unifying sartorial decoration.

  • JAMES CARROLL BECKWITH (1852-1917) Nita Oil on Panel 10 1/16 X 7 5/8 Inches Signed Lower Right Inscribed, “Background Of/Nita Sewell/1897,” Verso
    JAMES CARROLL BECKWITH (1852-1917) Nita Oil on panel 10 1/16 x 7 5/8 inches Signed lower right Inscribed, “Background of/Nita Sewell/1897,” verso James Carroll Beckwith enjoyed enormous success as a portrait painter in the genteel tradition of the late nineteenth century. He was born in Hannibal, Missouri in 1852 and subsequently moved to Chicago where he studied painting under Walter Shirtlaw in 1868. Three years later the artist relocated to Manhattan and studied at the National Academy of Design under Lemuel Wilmarth. In 1873, Beckwith departed for France and was admitted into the atelier of Carolus Duran, the famous French portraitist. It was in Paris that Beckwith became close friends with John Singer Sargent (a fellow student of Carolus Duran) and collaborated with him and Duran to paint a ceiling mural in the Louvre. Having gained great exposure to French impressionist techniques, Beckwith returned to Chicago in 1878 and shortly thereafter relocated to New York. Beckwith won a prize at the Paris Salon, a medal at the Paris Expositions of 1889 and 1890, won gold medals at the Atlanta Exposition of 1895 and Charleston Exposition of 1902, and painted a mural at the World’s Columbian Exposition of 1893. The artist also exhibited widely at the National Academy, Brooklyn Art Association, Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, Boston Art Club, Art Institute of Chicago. His paintings can now be found in the following collections: Wadsworth Athenaeum, Metropolitan Museum of Art, Yale University Art Gallery, Smithsonian American Art Museum, New York Historical Society, Parrish Art Museum, Toledo Museum of Art, Albright-Kemper Gallery of Art, Smith College Museum of Art, Detroit Institute of the Arts, Arnot Art Museum, West Point Museum, Cheeckwood Museum of Art and Indianapolis Art Museum.
