This MA is unique in that it offers a wide range of modern language modules, and is currently the only UK- based MA to emphasize European Romantic writing both in translation and the original language. For this reason, a reading knowledge of one of French, German or Italian is desirable, although not necessary for successful completion of the course. Students will be based in the Department of English and Comparative Literary Studies but will be required to take at least one of their modules from another department. This is a taught MA with a significant research component in the form of a compulsory dissertation, and so may be especially suited to students who are interested in pursuing PhD work in the field of comparative literatures. All tutors on the MA would welcome interested and suitably qualified students to follow their MA with PhD study at the University of Warwick. THE COURSE The MA in Pan-Romanticisms may be taken either full-time or part-time. The part- time option is offered over two years; students taking the MA part-time are required to take the Core Module and Research Methods in their first year. The MA may be studied in the following ways: Term 1: Either Core Module (Introduction to Pan Romanticisms – see page 8) Research Methods (see page 7) Or Core Module (Introduction to Pan Romanticisms – see page 8) Research Methods (see page 7) Option Term 2: Either Option Option Or Option Term 3 and summer: Dissertation For each option students will write an essay of 5000 words (Research methods is assessed by an extended bibliographical exercise). The Dissertation is planned over Terms 1 and 2 and written in Term 3 and the summer vacation. Supervisors will be assigned by the end of Term 1 and supervision continues through the end of Term 3. Students use the summer for final revisions and writing up. The Options All students are homed in the Department of English and Comparative Literary Studies and take the Department’s Research Methods module (not including Critical 5 Theory). In addition, all students take the MA’s core module, Introduction to Pan Romanticisms. Remember that at least one option must be taken outside the English Department. The Dissertation The MA Dissertation allows students to undertake and complete a sustained research project (approximately 20,000 words) on a topic of special interest. The topic of the dissertation does not have to be directly related to any of the taught modules. However, topics must fall within the competence and interests of one member of the teaching staff and must be feasible in terms of resources to be accepted. During the Autumn Term a series of workshops will be held to help students shape their general ideas into an appropriate and feasible proposal. Attendance at these workshops is mandatory. Students will also be expected to meet once with their potential supervisor. Full proposals will be submitted by Week 6 of Term 1. The Dissertation Plan must be given to your supervisor by the end of Week 7 of the Spring Term (AT THE LATEST). Thereafter, you should see your supervisor on a basis arranged between the two of you. Your supervisor may require you to submit written work regularly and will recommend reading as well as assisting you in structuring your project. Direct dissertation supervision finishes in Week 11 of the Summer Term, bywhich time you should have completed your research, finalized your structure and written drafts of the majority of chapters. The writing up period is undertaken during the Summer Vacation with final submission in early September. MA Modules The MA modules listed in the following pages will be offered whenever possible. However, in any one year, due to staffing and other considerations, certain modules may not run. Attendance at all classes is obligatory. If students are unable to attend a particular seminar they should contact the tutor in advance to explain their absence. Part-time students following the MA course are normally expected to take the Core Module and Research Methods in Term 1 and a module in Term 2 in their first year. In their second year they normally take 1 option in term 1 and concentrate on their dissertation subsequently. They should attend the dissertation workshops in their second year. Students are reminded that MA work is demanding, and that normally they should not attempt more than two option modules in any one term, full-time, or one module, part-time. You will be asked to indicate an alternative module for each term, as it may not be possible to accommodate every first choice. 6 ALL STUDENTS MUST TAKE INTRODUCTION TO RESEARCH METHODS Introduction to Research Methods (Dr Michel John Kooy and Mr. Peter Larkin) This will take place in weeks 2-8 of the Autumn Term. All sessions are on Wednesday afternoons from 1.00-3.00. A supplementary sheet giving precise details and locations of sessions will be provided at the beginning of term.

    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.

  • 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 .
