  • Introduction the Spirit of Young America
    Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-87564-6 - The Young America Movement and the Transformation of the Democratic Party, 1828-1861 Yonatan Eyal Excerpt More information Introduction The Spirit of Young America In 1853, New York writer and lecturer George William Curtis tried to put into words the elusive mindset known as Young America. Curtis attempted to define a concept that had many meanings in the antebellum United States, and in his speech he focused on its spirit of freshness and boldness. “Youth, or Young America, smiles at greatness,” he observed. It confidently expects to exceed and rival in greatness, “the noblest Roman of them all.” It says “well done” to Alexander, and pats Hannibal on the back; it smiles patronizingly on Julius Caesar, and will acknowledge Homer to be a good poet, if you insist upon it; and even admits that, at present, two and two make four. But it is secretly convinced that all these works of antiquity are only partial and incomplete affairs, not to be compared with what can be done in our day, and resolves that the time shall come when two and two shall make five.1 The Young American “prowls about Cuba,” he continued, “seeking how he may devour it, and sends Commodore Perry to Japan, with the very pleasant message that he is the sun, that the moon is his wife, and the earth their her- itage.” This assessment only barely exaggerated the quest for novelty that lay at the heart of the Young America ethos.2 Curtis’s contemporaries came to similar conclusions about Young America.

  • Romanticism Romanticism Dominated Literature, Music, and the Arts in the First Half of the 19Th Century
    AP ACHIEVER Romanticism Romanticism dominated literature, music, and the arts in the first half of the 19th century. Romantics reacted to the Enlightenment’s emphasis on reason and science, instead stressing the following: • Emotions – Taking their cue from Rousseau, Romantics emphasized feeling and passion as the wellspring of knowledge and creativity. • Intuition – Science alone cannot decipher the world; imagination and the “mind’s eye” can also reveal its truths. • Nature – Whereas the philosophes studied nature analytically, the Romantics drew inspiration and awe from its mysteries and power. • Nationalism – Romanticism found a natural connection with nationalism; both emphasized change, passion, and connection to the past. • Religion (Supernatural) – Romanticism coincided with a religious revival, particularly in Catholicism. Spirit, mysticism, and emotions were central to both. • The unique individual – Romantics celebrated the individual of genius and talent, like a Beethoven or a Napoleon, rather than what was universal in all humans. With these themes in mind, consider the topics and individuals below: • THEME MUSIC AND EXAMPLE BASE Prior to the 19th century, you will have noted the rise of objective thinking toward the natural world (Scientific Revolution, Enlightenment), but with the Romantics, we see one of the first strong reactions to the notion that all knowledge stems from the scientific method (OS). Though not the first to do so, the Romantics embrace the subjectivity of experience in a singular and seductive manner. Literature and History Lord Byron (1788-1824 ) – As famous for his scandalous lifestyle as for his narrative poems, Lord Byron died from fever on his way to fight for Greek independence, a cause he supported in his writings.

  • “National Poets” of Slovenia and Iceland Sveinn Yngvi Egilsson Department of Icelandic and Comparative Cultural Studies, University of Iceland, Reykjavík [email protected]
    Nation and Elevation: Some Points of Comparison between the “National Poets” of Slovenia and Iceland Sveinn Yngvi Egilsson Department of Icelandic and Comparative Cultural Studies, University of Iceland, Reykjavík [email protected] This article compares the poetic means of elevation used by two “national poets,” France Prešeren and Jónas Hallgrímsson, arguing that the latter elevated both his native country and the vernacular language by using aesthetic models. Keywords: national literary canon / Slovene poetry / Icelandic poetry / national poets / Prešeren, France / Halgrímsson, Jónas / comparative studies Each of them did what any aspiring “national poet” would try to do in the nineteenth century. They reinvented their native language as a medi- um of modern poetic thought and expression. They introduced Italianate forms such as the sonnet and the terza rima into the national repertoire. They voiced the cause of their nation and tried to rally their countrymen around it. They wrote a “national epic,” looking back to a crucial period in their nation’s history but mythologizing it at the same time, emphasizing its former glory and democratic principles. They were part of a close circle of patriotic intellectuals that published their writings in a new literary jour- nal. However, their life and work was also beset with similar troubles and paradoxes. They could be sarcastic about their lot and about the foreign power that suppressed their nation, but enjoyed education in its universi- ties (in Vienna and Copenhagen, respectively) and versified willingly in the oppressor’s tongue (German and Danish). They were each unhappily in love with a woman they could never obtain and sublimated her in their exquisite poetry.

Providing a close reading of select songs, I prove that modern music is seeing a revival in the Romantic Era and Transcendentalist ideals and philosophy. The works and philosophy of Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772-1834), William Wordsworth (1770-1850), John Keats (1795-1821), as well as Henry David Thoreau (1817-1862), Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803-1882), among others and their critics are all considered for points of comparison to the modern lyrics.

Source:Nineteenth-Century Literature Criticism. Ed. Suzanne Dewsbury. Vol. 77. Detroit: Gale Group, 1999. From Literature Resource Center. Document Type:Critical essay Full Text: COPYRIGHT 1999 Gale Group, COPYRIGHT 2007 Gale, Cengage Learning Full Text: [(essay date 1978) In the following essay, Snyder discusses the Fairy Tales in relation to German nationalism and the Romantic movement, focusing on how the tales present positive, praiseworthy traits common to the German people while at the same time promoting the idea of fear of the outsider, personified in the character of the Jew.] All my works relate to the Fatherland, from whose soil they derive their strength. Jakob Grimm For generations the Grimm Fairy Tales have enjoyed international popularity. Children all over the world have been and are still fascinated by the stories of Cinderella, and Hansel and Gretel. Yet, paradoxically, the scholars who collected and refined these tales worked within the framework of that romanticism which became an important element of German nationalism. The Grimms regarded all their work, including the fairy tales, as deriving its strength from the soil of the Fatherland. When this theme was presented originally, it turned out to be most controversial. It was denounced by defenders of childhood on the ground that no taint of nationalism could possibly exist in stories so popular among the world's children. Among the most vociferous critics were German scholars who had been obliged to leave Hitler's Germany as refugees: to them the idea was exaggerated and unfair.

    Romanticism 1 Romanticism Caspar David Friedrich, Wanderer Above the Sea of Fog, 1818 Eugène Delacroix, Death of Sardanapalus, 1827, taking its Orientalist subject from a play by Lord Byron Romanticism 2 Philipp Otto Runge, The Morning, 1808 Romanticism (also the Romantic era or the Romantic period) was an artistic, literary, and intellectual movement that originated in Europe toward the end of the 18th century and in most areas was at its peak in the approximate period from 1800 to 1850. Partly a reaction to the Industrial Revolution,[1] it was also a revolt against aristocratic social and political norms of the Age of Enlightenment and a reaction against the scientific rationalization of nature.[] It was embodied most strongly in the visual arts, music, and literature, but had a major impact on historiography,[2] education[3] and the natural sciences.[4] Its effect on politics was considerable and complex; while for much of the peak Romantic period it was associated with liberalism and radicalism, in the long term its effect on the growth of nationalism was probably more significant. The movement validated strong emotion as an authentic source of aesthetic experience, placing new emphasis on such emotions as apprehension, horror and terror, and awe—especially that which is experienced in confronting the sublimity of untamed nature and its picturesque qualities, both new aesthetic categories. It elevated folk art and ancient custom to something noble, made spontaneity a desirable characteristic (as in the musical impromptu), and argued for a "natural" epistemology of human activities as conditioned by nature in the form of language and customary usage.

  • Presenting the Encyclopedia of Romantic Nationalism in Europe (Ernie)
    Presenting the Encyclopedia of Romantic Nationalism in Europe (ERNiE) ERNiE’s Aims and Setup – Patterns, Persons, Places - Tracing Cultural Connections - Describing PATTERNS: A reticular encyclopedia - Linking (through) PERSONS and PLACES: Nodes and networks Analytical Superstructure: The Mapping Machine Documentation Infrastructure: The ‘Materials’ Databases Work and Progress Further Reading ERNiE’s Aims and Setup – Patterns, Persons, Places Tracing Cultural Connections The Encyclopedia of Romantic Nationalism in Europe (ERNiE), the flagship project of the STUDY PLATFORM ON INTERLOCKING NATIONALISMS (SPIN, www.spinnet.eu), aims to chart the diffusion of cultural nationalism in the ‘long 19th century’, including some of its afterlife tapering off in the 20th century. This is traced in two dimensions: transnationally (across – and in some cases beyond – Europe), and intermedially (across different cultural fields, ‘multimedia’-style). 1. Transnational diffusion. In the decades following 2. Intermedial diffusion. Cultural nationalism was Macpherson’s Ossian, Schiller’s Wilhelm Tell and expressed and propagated in a variety of cultural Byron’s philhellenism, Romantic Nationalism spread fields and pursuits: from linguistics and philology to across widely dissimilar countries, from Reykjavík to poetry and the arts, from architecture to archeology Veliko Tˇarnovo and from La Coruña to Moscow, by and from folklore to history-writing. Nowadays, these communicative contagion – much like Romanticism fields are the specialism of strictly separated academic itself. ERNiE’s focus on the transnational self- disciplines. Consequently, intermedial spill-overs propagation of 19th-century nationalism (‘tracing (from the historical novel to painting, opera or history- cultural connections’) aims to counterbalance a writing; from folklore studies to music, ethnography, tendency in nationalism studies to explain national museology and festive commemorations) tend to drift movements, individually and separately, from the to the periphery of the scholarly field of vision.
