  • From the Philosophy of Religion to the History of Religions
    CHAPTER ONE FROM THE PHILOSOPHY OF RELIGION TO THE HISTORY OF RELIGIONS CHOLARS of religion have devoted little attention to the con- nections between their views of religious history and the phi- Slosophy of religion. Hayden White’s comment that “there can be no ‘proper history’ which is not at the same time ‘philosophy of history’”1 can also be applied to religious history, but that is seldom considered today. On the contrary! Religious studies has taken pains to keep the philosophy of religion far away from its field. Neverthe- less, there is a great deal of evidence for the assertion that the histo- riography of religion was also in fact an implicit philosophy of reli- gion. A search for such qualifications soon yields results, coming up with metahistorical assumptions originating in the philosophy of reli- gion. These sorts of connections have been conscientiously noted by Edward E. Evans-Pritchard, Eric J. Sharpe, Jan de Vries, Jan van Baal, Brian Morris, J. Samuel Preus, and Jacques Waardenburg in their his- tories of the field. Yet, to date, no one has made a serious attempt to apply Hayden White’s comment systematically to research in the field of religious history. But there is every reason to do so. Evidence points to more than simply coincidental and peripheral connections between religious studies as a historical discipline and the philosophy of religion. Perhaps the idea of a history of religions with all its im- plications can be developed correctly only if we observe it from a broader and longer-term perspective of the philosophy of religion.

  • The Postsecular Traces of Transcendence in Contemporary
    The Postsecular Traces of Transcendence in Contemporary German Literature Thomas R. Bell A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2015 Reading Committee: Dr. Sabine Wilke, Chair Dr. Richard Block Dr. Eric Ames Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Germanics ©Copyright 2015 Thomas R. Bell University of Washington Abstract The Postsecular Traces of Transcendence in Contemporary German Literature Thomas Richard Bell Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Professor Sabine Wilke Germanics This dissertation focuses on texts written by four contemporary, German-speaking authors: W. G. Sebald’s Die Ringe des Saturn and Schwindel. Gefühle, Daniel Kehlmann’s Die Vermessung der Welt, Sybille Lewitscharoff’s Blumenberg, and Peter Handke’s Der Große Fall. The project explores how the texts represent forms of religion in an increasingly secular society. Religious themes, while never disappearing, have recently been reactivated in the context of the secular age. This current societal milieu of secularism, as delineated by Charles Taylor, provides the framework in which these fictional texts, when manifesting religious intuitions, offer a postsecular perspective that serves as an alternative mode of thought. The project asks how contemporary literature, as it participates in the construction of secular dialogue, generates moments of religiously coded transcendence. What textual and narrative techniques serve to convey new ways of perceiving and experiencing transcendence within the immanence felt and emphasized in the modern moment? While observing what the textual strategies do to evoke religious presence, the dissertation also looks at the type of religious discourse produced within the texts. The project begins with the assertion that a historically antecedent model of religion – namely, Friedrich Schleiermacher’s – which is never mentioned explicitly but implicitly present throughout, informs the style of religious discourse.

  • What Literature Knows: Forays Into Literary Knowledge Production
    Contributions to English 2 Contributions to English and American Literary Studies 2 and American Literary Studies 2 Antje Kley / Kai Merten (eds.) Antje Kley / Kai Merten (eds.) Kai Merten (eds.) Merten Kai / What Literature Knows This volume sheds light on the nexus between knowledge and literature. Arranged What Literature Knows historically, contributions address both popular and canonical English and Antje Kley US-American writing from the early modern period to the present. They focus on how historically specific texts engage with epistemological questions in relation to Forays into Literary Knowledge Production material and social forms as well as representation. The authors discuss literature as a culturally embedded form of knowledge production in its own right, which deploys narrative and poetic means of exploration to establish an independent and sometimes dissident archive. The worlds that imaginary texts project are shown to open up alternative perspectives to be reckoned with in the academic articulation and public discussion of issues in economics and the sciences, identity formation and wellbeing, legal rationale and political decision-making. What Literature Knows The Editors Antje Kley is professor of American Literary Studies at FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg, Germany. Her research interests focus on aesthetic forms and cultural functions of narrative, both autobiographical and fictional, in changing media environments between the eighteenth century and the present. Kai Merten is professor of British Literature at the University of Erfurt, Germany. His research focuses on contemporary poetry in English, Romantic culture in Britain as well as on questions of mediality in British literature and Postcolonial Studies. He is also the founder of the Erfurt Network on New Materialism.

    Sanda Pădureţu Senior Lecturer Technical University of Cluj-Napoca Romania FREEDOM, HUMAN RIGHTS AND CENSORSHIP IN NINETEENTH-CENTURY ROMANIAN LITERATURE Mainstream contemporary literary studies and also research in the history of political thought1 consider that at the heart of serious exploration into the field of literary history and literary theory (expressed both in canonical and non-ca- nonical works of all kind) has always been the question: “How shall I read this text?”. The answers have varied greatly over time. When we revisit the works of the past, we read them with an eye towards their immediate application to the present. Throughout historically changing contexts, past literature has shaped its own form of political expression. Within the variety of ways of approaching past texts we must consider the interplay of text and context. The textual moments in the history of nineteenth-century Romanian literature include political thought, freedom and censorship and the debates about it. Cen- sorship at the time included: controlling the expression, communication and dissemination of ideas. This goes to the heart of issues: authority, obedience, subjection, civility, discrimination of the public and private spheres, control of speech, writing, performance, the state limiting the freedom of expression and thus the good citizen being the one who practices self-censorship, hegemonic pressures of patriarchy, ideology, gender or ethnic superiority, limits to the form of expression (subordinate groups or even majorities), reasons of state security, state secrets, state agencies. The key terms colliding are modern liberal/secular/ Western society. What “we may know” vs. what “we should remain in ignorance of” remain disputed issues, thus difficult, complex, and still unresolved.

  • Literary and Cultural Translata Bility: the European Romantic Example
    Literary and Cultural Translata bility: The European Romantic Example Ian Fairly Abstract This essay presents an overview of Western and Central European thinking about translation in the Romantic period of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. In it, I seek to delineate a convergence of aesthetic and cultural theory in the Romantic preoccupation with translation. Among other things, my discussion is interested in how translation in this period engages debate about what it means to be a ‘national’ writer creating a ‘national’ literature. I offer this essay in the hope that its meditation on literary and cultural translatability and untranslatability will resonate with readers in their own quite different contexts. One of the central statements on translation by a British Romantic writer occurs in Samuel Taylor Coleridge's Biographia Literaria (1817). Reflecting on the achievements of Wordsworth's verse, Coleridge proposes that the " infallible test of a blameless style " in poetry is " its untranslatableness in words of the same language without injury to the meaning ". This is at once a prescription for fault-finding and an index of immaculacy. A utopian strain sounds through Coleridge's " infallible " and " blameless ", suggesting that an unfallen integrity may be remade, or critically rediscovered, in the uniqueness of poetic utterance. Translation Today Vol. 2 No. 2 Oct. 2005 © CIIL 2005 Literary and Cultural Translata bility: 93 The European Romantic Example Where Wordsworth's " meditative pathos " and " imaginative power " are expressed in verse which cannot be other than it is Coleridge asserts a vital congruence between the particular and the universal. Yet his formula does not preclude the translational recovery of that expressive pathos and power in words of another language.

  • Information for Schleiermacher's on Religion Eric Watkins Humanities 4
    Information for Schleiermacher’s On Religion Eric Watkins Humanities 4 UCSD Friedrich Schleiermacher is the most important Protestant theologian of the period and is a major proponent of Romanticism. In On Religion he articulates his own conception of religion, against Enlightenment conceptions of religion (such as Kant’s) and against conceptions of Romanticism (like Schiller’s) that do not attribute any significant role to religion (or religious experience). Rather than thinking that one should simply focus on being a good person by doing one’s duty (and hope that God will reward good behavior in an afterlife, if there is one), Schleiermacher thinks that religion is essentially about one’s personal immediate relation to a higher power, the infinite, or God, which he identifies with Nature as a whole. Historical and Intellectual Background: •Kant emphasized the importance of morality and thought that whatever was important about religion could be reduced to morality. So to be a genuine Christian would require not that one have just the right theological beliefs (e.g., about transubstantiation or the trinity), but rather that one act according to the Categorical Imperative. The Kingdom of Ends formulation of the Categorical Imperative is, in effect, a religious expression of the moral law, but the religious connotations are not essential to his basic idea, which is most fundamentally secular (because based solely on reason, which is the same for everyone, regardless of their religious beliefs). Kant coins an interesting phrase in referring to “the invisible church”; the idea is that what matters is not the physical buildings that one might worship in, but rather the moral relations that obtain between free rational agents (and which generate our obligations not to lie, harm others, commit suicide, etc.).

  • Supporting Eteria
    Issue no. 16 JOURNAL OF ROMANIAN LITERARY STUDIES 2019 A CONTROVERSIAL POLITICAL DECISION OF METROPOLITAN VENIAMIN COSTACHI : SUPPORTING ETERIA Mirela Beguni Lecturer, PhD., ”Ştefan cel Mare” University of Suceava Abstract: In 1821, the Romanian Principalities were involved in the liberation movement of the Greeks from Turkish domination, the action of some Russian influence agents having an important role in supporting it by the natives. Believing that Eteria would be a chance for taking the Romanians out of the oppressive Ottoman suzerainty, Metropolitan Veniamin Costachi of Moldavia initially supported the revolution, a gesture which, in the light of the turn that it took, was criticized by some contemporaries and brought him, personally, a lot of pain and a two-year exile. Keywords: Moldavia, Metropolitan Veniamin Costachi, Eteria, Alexandru Ipsilanti, Mihail Suțu Personalitate proeminentă a istoriei naţionale, mitropolitul Veniamin Costachi (1803-1808; 1812-1842) a jucat un rol de prim rang nu doar în viaţa religioasă a Moldovei, ci şi în guvernarea acesteia, la baza cooperării între înaltul cler şi conducerea laică stând tradiţia bizantină a simfoniei între Biserică şi stat. Crezând în necesitatea înnoirii ţării, ierarhul a căutat prin toate mijloacele să valorifice orice prilej pentru propăşirea Moldovei, o astfel de şansă considerând că ar putea fi Eteria, revoluţia de eliberare a grecilor de sub stăpânirea turcească. Având relaţii amicale cu mulţi greci erudiţi din Principat, mitropolitul Veniamin fusese introdus în misterele unei organizaţii eteriste încă din 1805, când era înfiinţată de către negustorii eleni din Iaşi societatea „Adelfaton‖ (însemnând frăţie), al cărei scop era „unirea armată a tuturor creştinilor din Imperiul Otoman, pentru a face să triumfe crucea asupra semilunii‖.
