GERMAN LITERARY FAIRY TALES, 1795-1848 by CLAUDIA MAREIKE
ROMANTICISM, ORIENTALISM, AND NATIONAL IDENTITY: GERMAN LITERARY FAIRY TALES, 1795-1848 By CLAUDIA MAREIKE KATRIN SCHWABE A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2012 1 © 2012 Claudia Mareike Katrin Schwabe 2 To my beloved parents Dr. Roman and Cornelia Schwabe 3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS First and foremost, I would like to thank my supervisory committee chair, Dr. Barbara Mennel, who supported this project with great encouragement, enthusiasm, guidance, solidarity, and outstanding academic scholarship. I am particularly grateful for her dedication and tireless efforts in editing my chapters during the various phases of this dissertation. I could not have asked for a better, more genuine mentor. I also want to express my gratitude to the other committee members, Dr. Will Hasty, Dr. Franz Futterknecht, and Dr. John Cech, for their thoughtful comments and suggestions, invaluable feedback, and for offering me new perspectives. Furthermore, I would like to acknowledge the abundant support and inspiration of my friends and colleagues Anna Rutz, Tim Fangmeyer, and Dr. Keith Bullivant. My heartfelt gratitude goes to my family, particularly my parents, Dr. Roman and Cornelia Schwabe, as well as to my brother Marius and his wife Marina Schwabe. Many thanks also to my dear friends for all their love and their emotional support throughout the years: Silke Noll, Alice Mantey, Lea Hüllen, and Tina Dolge. In addition, Paul and Deborah Watford deserve special mentioning who so graciously and welcomingly invited me into their home and family. Final thanks go to Stephen Geist and his parents who believed in me from the very start. -
Guido Mazzoni the Novel, Human Sciences, Democracy
Guido Mazzoni The novel, human sciences, democracy 1. An immense multitude of men In 2008, when my father died, I tried to collect the photos that I had of him, as often happens in these cases. And, as often happens in these cases, I ended up extending my search to include previous generations. There were extremely few images that depicted the paternal side of the family. I discovered that in 1972 in the middle of a move my grandfather had decided to throw away some of the few photos he owned. When my mother asked him why, he responded “Old junk, all dead people.” Born into a peasant family in conditions not much different from those of the Ancien Regime, he was raised in an epoch that considered photography expensive, complicated, and the province of an elite. He didn’t think he had the means much less the right to leave behind a trace. He considered himself a laborer. His life made sense only in the context of the extended family, working to allow the children to live better than their parents, just as had happened for immemorial generations of sharecroppers from which he descended. All the rest was irrelevant and didn’t pertain to him, least of all the preservation of his image in time. In the third decade of the 19th century, Alessandro Manzoni imported into Italian the model of the historical novel invented by Walter Scott. It almost happened in real time: Waverley was published in 1814; in 1821 Manzoni began to dedicate himself to the book that will be entitled I Promessi Sposi (1827). -
Antonio Rosmini on Property It Showed Itself As a Part of God’S Calling
Journal of Markets & Morality Volume 7, Number 1 (Spring 2004): 63–97 Copyright © 2004 A Sphere Around Alberto Mingardi Policy Director the Person: Istituto Bruno Leoni (Turin, Italy) Antonio Rosmini and Visiting Fellow Centre for the New Europe on Property* (Brussels, Belgium) Father Antonio Rosmini-Serbati (1797–1855) is an author of growing interest and curiosity to his fellow churchmen, as well as to secular intellectuals, as a philosopher who successfully reconciled reason and faith. Nevertheless, the political nuances of his thought have barely been explored by English-speaking scholars, and even among his Italian followers these have not been fully appre- ciated. This article attempts to present an overview of Rosmini’s political philoso- phy, focusing on his concern for the protection of private property rights and arguing that it is precisely his advocacy of private property that determines his attitude toward the general organization of associated life, government, and democracy. The organization of this investigation consists of four parts. The first pro- vides a brief biographical sketch of Antonio Rosmini. The second tentatively enlists the main influences in the development of Rosmini’s thought as far as politics and economics are concerned. The third is devoted to examining his approach toward property. The fourth examines his definition of social justice in the light of his justification of property. Introduction In this article, I introduce the reader to the figure of Antonio Rosmini, provide a biographical sketch, and subsequently approach his thought on private prop- erty. As a priest and a devout Catholic, religious faith was central to every aspect of Rosmini’s philosophy. -

Reading at the Opera: Music and Literary Culture in Early Nineteenth-Century Italy By Edward Lee Jacobson A dissertation submitted in partial satisfacation of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Music in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Mary Ann Smart, Chair Professor James Q. Davies Professor Ian Duncan Professor Nicholas Mathew Summer 2020 Abstract Reading at the Opera: Music and Literary Culture in Early Nineteenth-Century Italy by Edward Lee Jacobson Doctor of Philosophy in Music University of California, Berkeley Professor Mary Ann Smart, Chair This dissertation emerged out of an archival study of Italian opera libretti published between 1800 and 1835. Many of these libretti, in contrast to their eighteenth- century counterparts, contain lengthy historical introductions, extended scenic descriptions, anthropological footnotes, and even bibliographies, all of which suggest that many operas depended on the absorption of a printed text to inflect or supplement the spectacle onstage. This dissertation thus explores how literature— and, specifically, the act of reading—shaped the composition and early reception of works by Gioachino Rossini, Vincenzo Bellini, Gaetano Donizetti, and their contemporaries. Rather than offering a straightforward comparative study between literary and musical texts, the various chapters track the often elusive ways that literature and music commingle in the consumption of opera by exploring a series of modes through which Italians engaged with their national past. In doing so, the dissertation follows recent, anthropologically inspired studies that have focused on spectatorship, embodiment, and attention. But while these chapters attempt to reconstruct the perceptive filters that educated classes would have brought to the opera, they also reject the historicist fantasy that spectator experience can ever be recovered, arguing instead that great rewards can be found in a sympathetic hearing of music as it appears to us today. -

Figures of Simplicity
Chapter 1 Aesthetics Sensation and Thinking Reconsidered On March 22, 1801, Heinrich von Kleist wrote a famous letter to his fi ancée Wilhelmine von Zenge, telling her of his shocking encounter with Kantian philosophy: “I recently became familiar with the more recent so-called Kantian philosophy, and I may impart one of its leading ideas to you without fear of its shattering you as deeply, as painfully as it has me.” 1 Kleist-criticism has read these and the ensuing lines to Wilhelmine—together with the letter written to his sister Ulrike the following day ( ADE, 97–98/ SW IV/1, 512)—as markers of an intellectual crisis, provoked by the encounter with Kant: an encounter that crushed Kleist, the young offi cer, and out of which Kleist, the writer, emerged in 1802 with his fi rst literary work, Die Familie Schroffenstein. Much has been written about this crisis and the potential texts by Kant to which Kleist reacted so strongly. Despite differing suggestions to which of Kant’s texts the “crisis-letters” of March 1801 refer,2 the often held conviction is that the letters give evidence of the experience of a tremendous loss due to reading Kant. Kleist is seen to have lost his formerly held naïve Enlightenment belief in progress and transparency, in the possibility to perfect one’s life and mind through education, and to acquire objective truth and lasting knowledge. With this ideal gone, Kleist-criticism largely saw Kleist emerging as the melancholic poet of the Fall.3 Friedrich Cramer articulates this in his preface to Christian-Paul Berger’s study on Kleist’s On the Puppet Theater . -
