Notes for JOHANN DANIEL RAMBERG, DER JUNIOR: Grabstein Johann Daniel Rambergs Johann Daniel Ramberg (1732-1820) stand seit 1761 im Dienste dreier Generationen von Welfenherrschern als Kriegsrat, Kommerzrat, Hofrat und Geheimer Justizrat. Historische Bedeutung erlangte er jedoch als Architekt: Er entwarf den Leibniztempel, der heute im Georgengarten steht - und als Vater: sein Sohn Johann Heinrich Ramberg (1763-1840) war der bekannte Hofmaler Georg III. Als Dank für seine dynastische Treue erhielt er einen eindrucksvollen Grabstein auf dem Gartenfriedhof mit dem Hinweis auf seine Dienste unter drei Königen: Georg I., Georg II., Georg III.

Notes for JOHANN HEINRICH RAMBERG III: http://www.imagesofmusic.net/th/content/main/de/item952.htm Italienische Schaukel / Leben in Rom, Künstler, Ramberg, Johann Heinrich; Herkunft des Bildes: Hannover; Datum: 1797; Beschreibung: Eine neue Art von Leichtigkeit und Lebensfreude entdeckten am Ende des 18. Jahrhunderts viele Künstler in Italien. Die Künstlerkolonie in Rom war bekannt und Goethe nicht der einzige, der sich von Italien inspirieren ließ. Johann Heinrich Ramberg (1763 - 1840) war bereits früh als Zeichner- und Malertalent entdeckt und gefördert worden. Mit Hilfe von König Georg III. konnte er in den 1780er und 1790er Jahren nach London und Italien reisen. Erinnerungen an diese Reisen finden sich immer wieder in späteren Werken. Die von Ramberg in Hannover in "erfundener und in Skicirter Manier" erstellte Zeichnung "Italienische Schaukel" bzw. "Leben in Rom", die wahrscheinlich als Kupferstichvorlage dienen sollte, zeigt rechts in einem Hauseingang mehrere Mädchen, die auf einem Brett schaukeln, dessen Bewegungsimpuls von einem Jungen rechts über ein Seil erzeugt wird. Vier der Frauen spielen auf Schellentrommeln zu diesem von der Schaukel erzeugten Grundtakt. Der alte Vater mit der Laute ist bereits eingeschlafen, Rhythmus und eine gewisse Freizügigkeit ist eingekehrt, so daß nicht nur die Mönche auf die Mädchen blicken, sondern auch ein junger Weinhändler den Frauen Wein anbietet. http://www.artarchiv.net/sexarte/doku/ramberg.htm http://www.yale.edu/asl12night/boydell%2012night.html http://www.uni-siegen.de/~semumba/tyll_eulenspiegel.htm Eine solche "Jahrmarkts-Ausgabe" hat im Jahre 1824 Johann Heinrich Ramberg, Deutschlands bekanntester Buchillustrator zu Beginn des 19. Jahrhunderts, mit 55 Radierungen versehen, die auch neben den Illustrationen zahlreicher späterer Künstler - zu ihnen zählen immerhin Franz Maserel, Josef Hegenbarth und Paul A. Weber - bin in unsere Tage hinein populär geblieben sind. Originalformat der Radierungen ca. 20,5 x 17 cm (Plattengröße). http://usinfo.state.gov/usa/holidays/july4/selig.htm Germany's intellectual elite displayed an enthusiasm for the American Revolution similar to that of France's philosophes. By 1784, Germany's most famous engraver, Daniel Chodowiecki of Berlin, as well as Johann Heinrich Ramberg of Hanover, had produced etchings focusing on the stacking of arms as the sign of surrender. Chodowiecki worked in Berlin where he was a member of the Royal Academy. Ramberg was studying with Benjamin West in London under the sponsorship of King George III when he executed his engraving in 1784.

  • ANGLO-GERMAN CULTURAL RELATIONS Language & Literature
    ANGLO-GERMAN CULTURAL RELATIONS Language & literature, travel & tourism, c.1714–1914 The catalogue before you, published to mark my tenth anniversary as an independent bookseller, has been years in the making. Many people know me for selling Russian material, but in fact my interest in Germany About has always been stronger. German has always been my favoured foreign this language and I have enjoyed finding, researching, and writing about the catalogue books, manuscripts, music, and ephemera which make up this catalogue. It’s only when you specialize, and collect, in any depth that things start to get interesting, and that has certainly been the case here. You see connections, reactions, and developments; pieces of a historical jigsaw fall into place. The material here charts the cultural connections between the English- and German-speaking worlds in, roughly, the two hundred years between the Hanoverian Succession and the First World War. Through travel and translation, one culture discovers another; discovery then leads to influence. A German immigrant teaches music in London, the same year (1737) an Englishman in Göttingen compiles the first anthology of English literature for Germans. Later, in the 1760s, the first English translations of German literature are mirrored by the appearance of Wieland’s influential edition of Shakespeare. The catalogue documents two major eighteenth- century European literary events: Ossian and Werther, both linked by and to the young Goethe, whose own Faust so captured the English imagination in the nineteenth century. (The web of influence within literature itself is likewise tantalising: Werther reads Ossian, Frankenstein’s monster reads Werther.) The rise of the Gothic is also found here: Bürger’s Lenore in five English translations (1796–7), one of them Walter Scott’s first book, but the influence, surprisingly perhaps, was felt even earlier (and the other way round), in Sophia Lee’s The Recess, translated by Benedikte Naubert in 1786.

It explores a number of trajectories embarked upon by Boydell and his artists in their collective attempt to promote an English aesthetic. It broadly argues that the Shakespeare Gallery offered an antidote to a variety of perceived problems which had emerged at the Royal Academy over the previous twenty years, defining itself against Academic theory and practice. Identifying and examining the cluster of spatial, ideological and aesthetic concerns which characterised the Shakespeare Gallery, my research suggests that the Gallery promoted a vision for a national art form which corresponded to contemporary senses of English cultural and political identity, and takes issue with current art-historical perceptions about the 'failure' of Boydell's scheme. The introduction maps out some of the existing scholarship in this area and exposes the gaps which art historians have previously left in our understanding of the Shakespeare Gallery.

  • CALIBAN: Since the Dramatis Personae, Caliban Is Presented As a Savage and Deformed Slave
    CALIBAN: Since the Dramatis Personae, Caliban is presented as a savage and deformed slave. He is described as an evil character by Prospero and Miranda, who said that he is a villain. However they need him because he is useful. All the adjectives that the characters use to talk about him are pejorative. That can be interpreted like a device used by Shakespeare to put us against him from the beginning of the play. In the second act Caliban meets two sailor men and they provide us more information about him like his physical description. Trinculo asks himself if it is a fish or a man. First he thinks that he is a fish because of the smell but then he notice that Caliban has arms and legs like a human being. He says “This is no fish, but an islander that hath lately suffered by a thunderbolt.” Lately Stefano says that he is a monster of the isle with frog legs and they are surprised by his talking skills. Although these detailed description, the representations of this character are diverse. Painter: Johann Heinrich Ramberg (German, Hanover, 1763 ­ 1840) Date: 1791­ 1803 Name of the painting: “Stefano, Trinculo and Caliban” Classification: Illustration. This painting represents act II scene II when the sailor men found Caliban. This is the nearest to the description about the character that the play give us. The representation has fish qualities but it´s a mixture of different animal; we can see he has a cat face with whiskers and claws. In addition, he stands in two feet.

  • Recent Studies of Book Illustration and Engraving, Including Cartography, 1985–2016 This Bibliography Surveys Scholarship Publ
    Recent Studies of Book Illustration and Engraving, including Cartography, 1985–2016 This bibliography surveys scholarship published between 1985–2016 on engraving, including illustrations, prints, and emblems, as well as cartography, during the long eighteenth century (roughly 1650–1820). The focus is on Europe and the Americas, but some of Asian developments, particularly Japanese, have been included. The bibliography is most inclusive for the years 1990-2014, in consequence of my compiling studies from those years for Section 1— "Printing and Bibliographical Studies"—of the ECCB: The Eighteenth-Century Current Bibliography. A shorter version of this list without cartographic materials appeared in The East- Central Intelligencer, n.s. 15, no. 1 (January 2001), 58-77. Then an intermediate version appeared at Kevin Berland's C18-L website. During 2015–17, I expanded the list four times, with it now reaching 236 pages in typescript. The bibliography includes cartography (particularly the printed products of map-making), but excellent annual surveys of cartographic publications have been compiled by Francis Herbert, Wouter Bracke, and Nick Millea for Imago Mundi (entered under their names below). It lists dissertations and reviews for books. Focused on printed sources, it fails to note some valuable electronic sources, such as Juliette Sodt's website on illustration in botanical books, <www. library.wwu.edu/ref/subjguides/BOTILL.htm>, and many exhibition catalogues posted on the web by museums (only some recent exhibitions are included). Also, some studies in my bibliography of children’s literature at BibSite, as those on chapbooks, could also have been placed into this bibliography on engraving but were not.

E&OE VAT No. 217 6907 49 Francesco Bartolozzi (1728-1815) This overseas collection was put together in the late 1860s and was bought in England. It contains over 50 different tickets, most of Bartolozzi’s output, and a good selection of decorative items. In his own lifetime, and afterwards, the renown of the anglicised Florentine Francisco Bartolozzi eclipsed that of any other living engraver. His work was collected in its own right. Pupils flocked to him from all over Europe and his name was falsely attached to all kinds of cheap copies (mainly produced in Austria and Italy) in order to increase their value. He set up on his own account in Venice, working chiefly for Wagner and the Remondini and was there recruited by the English King’s librarian, Richard Dalton, who was buying pictures and drawings for George III, to draw copies for Royal approval. Some of his prints after Guercino and Castiglione were made at this time for that purpose. Dalton eventually persuaded Bartolozzi to move to London. He arrived in England at a time when the London art trade was just taking off on a sharp upward trend that soon had it dominating the world.

  • Collecting for a New Century – Recent Acquisitions January 18 – May 13, 2012
    1 Collecting for a New Century – Recent Acquisitions January 18 – May 13, 2012 Collecting for a New Century: Recent Acquisitions celebrates the continuing addition of important works of art to the collections of the Museum of Art and Archaeology during the twenty-first century. The Museum of Art and Archaeology has acquired many exceptional artworks in the recent years through generous gifts, bequests, and purchases. While some of the works have been included in Museum exhibitions, the vast majority of pieces remain unknown to our Museum visitors. This exhibition showcases the significance and diversity of these new additions to the collection. Encyclopedic in nature, the Museum continues to expand and deepen its holdings. Thus, this exhibition features objects consisting of a variety of art forms (paintings, sculptures, decorative arts, prints, and photographs), differing materials (ceramic, glass, gold, iron, and marble), numerous cultures (American, European, African, Pre-Columbian, South Asian, and East Asian), and a time span from antiquity to the present. Classical antiquities stand at the heart of the Museum, and significant new acquisitions continue to enrich these outstanding holdings. The addition of a colorful Roman ribbon glass bottle hearkens back to Dr. Gladys Weinberg, co-founder of the Museum of Art and Archaeology and a foremost expert in ancient glass. A remarkable life-size bust of a Roman empress and a rare Egyptian funerary stele combining Greek and Roman cultural elements featuring an independent and learned woman named Heliodora represent some of the important sculpture additions. Other outstanding accessions advancing this distinguished collection include a fine South Italian red-figure rhyton (a vase for libations or drinking) in the form of a griffin and an unusual South Italian askos (a type of vessel in the shape of a wineskin) surmounted by a molded figure of Scylla with an undulating sea serpent’s body.

    Wilhelm Busch: The Art of Letting Off Steam Through Symbolic Inversion By Joan Elizabeth Gladwell A thesis submitted to the Graduate Program in German in conformity with the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Queen’s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada April 2013 Copyright © Joan Elizabeth Gladwell, 2013 Abstract In the aftermath of the failed revolution of 1848, which had been sparked by demands for democracy and constitutional reform, Germany’s princes reluctantly introduced new freedoms regarding print and the right to assembly. However, reactionary forces in governments unwilling to cede power quickly repressed these freedoms, leading to tighter controls on public and private life. Consequently, dispirited citizens clutched at the old Biedermeier ways, withdrawing to an “ill-remembered social order of bygone days” (Shorter 169). It was against this backdrop that the illustrated works of Wilhelm Busch (1832–1908) appeared in the popular Bilderbogen (“picture broadsheets”) of the day, and later as stand-alone Bildergeschichten (“picture stories”), using satire and symbolic inversion to mock German society by skewering assorted political, social, and cultural sacred cows. The aim of my dissertation is as follows. I will start by examining Busch’s use of symbolic inversion as a way of implying a shift in power between figures of authority and the disgruntled “second-class” citizens of Biedermeier society: women and children. Next, I will examine how Busch’s animal characters, particularly apes with their close resemblance to mankind, mock human pretensions of biological superiority. Finally, I will show how objects meant to serve their human “masters” overpower them, even in their homes, suggesting that there was no refuge from the vagaries of a rapidly changing world.
