  • Italian Journey Treasures from the Archives
    GRAND TOUR ITALIANO: CINEMA TREASURES FROM THE ARCHIVES (c. 1909–12, total screening time: 70 mins.) Curated by Andrea Meneghelli, Cineteca di Bologna This program is presented virtually on wexarts.org Feb 28–Mar 6, 2021, as part of Cinema Revival: A Festival of Film Restoration, organized by the Wexner Center for the Arts. At the beginning of the 20th century, cinema offered production houses in Italy—and elsewhere—the extraordinary possibility of depicting Italy to the world and to the new citizens of the unified state, permitting everyone to go on a low cost, virtual Grand Tour. The production of “real life” Italian cinema during the early 1910s gives us the picture of a modern, industrialized country, which, at the same time, boasts the age-old traditions of its history and the incomparable artistic and natural beauty of its territory. In the ports of Genoa and Naples, while groups of foreign tourists disembark from steamboats, the docks are crowded with millions of emigrants, ready to set sail for Argentina, Canada, the United States...Italy is no longer a country for them. Images were shot throughout Italy, from Sicily to Valle d’Aosta, from the Tyrrhenian Sea to the Adriatic. The films were made by both Italian and international production houses, because the Bel paese (beautiful country) at once became the destination of choice for cine-camera operators sent out to capture “the Beautiful.” The operators (and their production houses) followed the lessons of the Lumière brothers, framing Italy with wisdom, using a new language written for the moving image, and with true technical know-how: manually colored images, split-screen, fixed cameras, cameras in movement..

  • Die Goldene Bulle Politik - Wahrnehmung - Rezeption
    Die Goldene Bulle Politik - Wahrnehmung - Rezeption Band II Herausgegeben von Ulrike Hohensee, Mathias Lawo, Michael Lindner, Michael Mcnzel und Olaf B. Rader Akademie Verlag MICHAEL NIEDERMEIER Goethe und die Goldene Bulle' Als mich Michael Lindner von der Arbeitsstelle der Monumenta Germaniae Histo- rica bat, aus Sicht des Goethe-Forschers einen Beitrag zu Johann Wolfgang von Goethe und seinem Verhältnis zur Goldenen Bulle beizusteuern, war ich zunächst zögerlich. Sicher, so meinte ich mich zu erinnern, hat Goethe in seinen Lebenser- innerungen auch - unter anderem - etwas zur Goldenen Bulle geschrieben. Nach einiger Zeit wurde mir allerdings klar, dass den Historikern der MGH als den Ken- nern der Goldenen Bulle Goethe in diesem Zusammenhang weit öfter begegnet war als mir, ja so muss man eingestehen, der Goethe-Forschung insgesamt. Freilich gibt es im Goethe-Wörterbuch einen Verweis über "Bulle, siehe Goldene Bulle", um dann im Wortartikel "golden" einen eigenen - freilich nur knappen - Eintrag zu erhalten.' Erstaunlich ist jedoch, dass mir in der fast unübersehbaren Goethe- Literatur kein einziger eigenständiger Aufsatz zum Thema begegnete und selbst in den diversen Goethe-Handbüchern nicht einmal ein eigener spezieller Artikel. Im Vorwort der von Wolfgang D. Fritz besorgten Monumenta-Ausgabe.' wird hingegen ausdrücklich Goethes Schilderung der Frankfurter Königswahl Josephs ]1. 1764 in ,Dichtung und Wahrheit' angeführt als Beleg für die Tatsache, dass der Geltungs- bereich der Goldenen Bulle zumindest für das Zeremoniell der Königswahl und das Kurfürstenkolleg noch bis 1806 Geltung besaß. Es zeigte sich, dass Historiker Goethe als eine verlässliche Quelle gebrauchten, während die spezielle germanisti- sche Goethe-Forschung auf den ersten Blick eher wenig beizutragen hat.4 Die leicht überarbeitete Schriftfassung des Vortrages behält den Vortragsgestus bei.

  • Beyond Autonomy in Eighteenth-Century and German Aesthetics
    10 Goethe’s Exploratory Idealism Mattias Pirholt “One has to always experiment with ideas.” Georg Christoph Lichtenberg “Everything that exists is an analogue to all existing things.” Johann Wolfgang Goethe Johann Wolfgang Goethe made his famous Italian journey in the late 1780s, approaching his forties, and it was nothing short of life-c hanging. Soon after his arrival in Rome on November 1, 1786, he writes to his mother that he would return “as a new man”1; in the retroactive account of the journey in Italienische Reise, he famously describes his entrance into Rome “as my second natal day, a true rebirth.”2 Latter- day crit- ics essentially confirm Goethe’s reflections, describing the journey and its outcome as “Goethe’s aesthetic catharsis” (Dieter Borchmeyer), “the artist’s self-d iscovery” (Theo Buck), and a “Renaissance of Goethe’s po- etic genius” (Jane Brown).3 Following a decade of frustrating unproduc- tivity, the Italian sojourn unleashed previously unseen creative powers which would deeply affect Goethe’s life and work over the decades to come. Borchmeyer argues that Goethe’s “new existence in Weimar bore an essentially different signature than his pre- Italian one.”4 With this, Borchmeyer refers to a particular brand of neoclassicism known as Wei- mar classicism, Weimarer Klassik, which is less an epochal term, seeing as it covers only a little more than a decade, than a reference to what Gerhard Schulz and Sabine Doering matter-o f- factly call “an episode in the creative history of a group of German writers around 1800.”5 Equally important as the aesthetic reorientation, however, was Goethe’s new- found interest in science, which was also a direct conse- quence of his encounter with the Italian nature.

  • The Essential Goethe
    Introduction Reading a French translation of his drama Faust in 1828, Goethe was struck by how “much brighter and more deliberately constructed” it appeared to him than in his original German. He was fascinated by the translation of his writing into other languages, and he was quick to acknowledge the important role of translation in modern culture. Literature, he believed, was becoming less oriented toward the nation. Soon there would be a body of writing— “world literature” was the term he coined for it— that would be international in scope and readership. He would certainly have been delighted to find that his writing is currently enjoying the attention of so many talented translators. English- speaking readers of Faust now have an embarrassment of riches, with modern versions by David Luke, Randall Jarrell, John Williams, and David Constantine. Constantine and Stanley Corngold have recently produced ver- sions of The Sorrows of Young Werther, the sentimental novel of 1774 that made Goethe a European celebrity and prompted Napoleon to award him the Le- gion d’Honneur. Luke and John Whaley have done excellent selections of Goethe’s poetry in English. At the same time the range of Goethe’s writing available in English remains quite narrow, unless the reader is lucky enough to find the twelve volumes of Goethe’s Collected Works published jointly by Princeton University Press and Suhrkamp Verlag in the 1980s. The Princeton edition was an ambitious undertaking. Under the general editorship of three Goethe scholars, Victor Lange, Eric Blackall, and Cyrus Hamlyn, it brought together versions by over twenty translators covering a wide range of Goethe’s writings: poetry, plays, novels and shorter prose fiction, an autobiography, and essays on the arts, philosophy, and science.

  • Goethe the Musician and His Influence on German Song Transcript
    Goethe the Musician and his influence on German Song Transcript Date: Friday, 20 June 2008 - 12:00AM GOETHE THE MUSICIAN AND HIS INFLUENCE ON GERMAN SONG Professor Richard Stokes It has become fashionable to label Goethe unmusical. In April 1816 he failed to acknowledge Schubert's gift of 16 settings of his own poems which included such masterpieces as 'Gretchen am Spinnrade', 'Meeresstille', 'Der Fischer' and 'Erlkönig'. He did not warm to Beethoven when they met in 1812. He preferred Zelter and Reichardt to composers that posterity has deemed greater. And he wrote in his autobiography,Dichtung und Wahrheit : 'Das Auge war vor allen anderen das Organ, womit ich die Welt erfasste' ('It was through the visual, above all other senses, that I comprehended the world') - a statement which seems to be confirmed by his indefatigable study of natural phenomena and his delight in art and architecture, in seeing. Lynceus's line at the end of Faust , 'Zum Sehen geboren, zum Schauen bestellt' ('I was born for seeing, employed to watch') has an unmistakably autobiographical ring. Goethe was, above all a visual being, an Augenmensch,. He was also, from his earliest days in Frankfurt, intensely musical. His father brought a Giraffe, an upright Hammerklavier, for 60 Gulden in 1769, played the lute and flute and occasionally made music with friends - there is an amusing passage in Dichtung und Wahrheit which describes his father playing the lute,"die er länger stimmte, als er darauf spielte" ("which he spent longer tuning than playing")! His mother, who was more artistic, played the piano and sang German and Italian arias with great enthusiasm.

  • Goethe's Urfaust and the Enlightenment
    Goethe’s Urfaust and the Enlightenment: Gottsched, Welling and the “Turn to Magic” By Copyright 2014 James Michael Landes Submitted to the graduate degree program in Germanic Languages and Literatures and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. ________________________________ Chairperson Professor Leonie Marx ________________________________ Co-Chairperson Professor Frank Baron ________________________________ Professor Maria Carlson ________________________________ Professor William Keel ________________________________ Professor Per Øhrgaard Date Defended: 10 March 2014 The Dissertation Committee for James Michael Landes certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: Goethe’s Urfaust and the Enlightenment: Gottsched, Welling and the “Turn to Magic” ________________________________ Chairperson Professor Leonie Marx ________________________________ Co-Chairperson Professor Frank Baron Date approved: 10 March 2014 ii Abstract The Urfaust, composed in the early 1770s, is the first draft of Johann Wolfgang von Goethe’s (1749-1832) masterpiece, Faust, Teil I (1808). While this early draft is relatively unexamined in its own right, an examination of this work in the context of its original creation offers insights into Goethe’s creative processes at the time in relation to the Enlightenment poetic debates of the eighteenth century, through which literary critics, such as J.C. Gottsched (1700-1766) attempted to define the rules by which poetic construction should operate. In examining the Urfaust, one can see how Goethe’s poetic aims transcended those of the Enlightenment debate, going far beyond the Enlightenment critics of Gottsched, such as J.J. Bodmer (1698-1783) and J.J. Breitinger (1701-1776) in making the case for additional room for the fantastic in poetic construction.

  • Dämonische Texturen. Der Durchkreuzte Wunsch in Goethes Wilhelm Meisters Wanderjahren
    CORNELIA ZUMBUSCH Dämonische Texturen. Der durchkreuzte Wunsch in Goethes Wilhelm Meisters Wanderjahren „Der alternde Goethe“, so stellt Fritz Mauthner nicht ohne Ironie fest, „liebte die Worte Dämonen und dämonisch.“ Insbesondere im Gespräch mit Ecker- mann habe sich sein „Aberglaube an freundlich gesinnte Dämonen [...] gern und oft redselig“ geäußert: je höher ein Mensch, desto mehr stehe er unter dem Einfluß der Dämonen; Raphael, Mozart, Napoleon, auch Lord Byron, werden dämonisch genannt; das Dämonische werfe sich gern an bedeutende Figuren; in einer klaren prosaischen Stadt, wie Berlin, fände es kaum Gelegenheit sich zu manifestieren (1831). Sehr drollig ist es, wenn die subalternen Freunde mit einer Art von Echolalie Goethes Greisenworte wiederholen, und z.B. Eckermann eine kleine Abhandlung über das Dämonische zum besten gibt.1 Das Material für seine Bemerkungen zu Goethes Greisenstil und Eckermanns Echolalie findet Mauthner in den Gesprächen Eckermanns mit Goethe aus dem Jahr 1831. Diese Unterhaltungen werden parallel zur Überarbeitung des Schlussteils von Dichtung und Wahrheit geführt, in dem Goethe mehrfach auf das Dämonische zu sprechen kommt. Den Auftakt zum zwanzigsten und letz- ten Buch seiner Autobiographie, die von der Zeit zwischen seiner ersten Schweizer Reise und dem Aufbruch nach Weimar erzählt, bildet ein Passus, in dem Goethe die Erzählung des eigenen Lebens zum Bildungsroman formt. Man habe „im Verlaufe dieses biographischen Vortrags umständlich gesehn, wie das Kind, der Knabe, der Jüngling sich auf verschiedenen
