LAMCASTTI. PA. TO THE MEMORY OF MY MOTHER NOTE Considering the extent and variety of his literary production and the peculiar interest of the ' epigonic ' period in which his best work was done, Immermann has been too little studied. I do not mean that he is a neglected genius, for he was not a man of genius. But the many-sidedness of his talent, his sen- sitiveness to every breeze that blew, his eager experimentation, make him especially interesting as a mirror of the Romantic epoch. Mr. Portefield has undertaken to study him in his total relation to the Romanticists and to all that they were driving at. I regard the work as a substantial contribution to our knowledge of Immermann and his contemporaries. CWMBIA UNIVERSITY, December, 1910. vii I p I""" : .; ,.a -..,:. ..: > *&d PREFACE In its most remote origin, this study grew out of a desire to familiarize myself with an important and suggestive epoch in German literature while solving a somewhat broad yet definite problem taken from this epoch. Immermann's lifelong though irregular and varying interest in German Romanticism appealed to me as abundantly satisfying this requirement. To Professor Calvin Thomas I owe indeed much by way of general suggestion, substantial assistance and personal encour- agement. To Professor Robert Herndon Fife, of Wesleyan Univer- sity, I owe a deep debt by way of advice as to the most feasible method of approach to Romanticism from. the standpoint of an individual poet. To my predecessors, I owe most to the works of Haym and Huch on Romanticism, and to those of Putlitz and Maync on Immermann. To Professors W. H. Carpenter, Hervey, Krapp, Lawrence, Remy and Tombo of Columbia, and to Professor I?. W. Trus- cott of West Virginia University, I owe that peculiarly unpay- able debt that disciple always owes to master. To my colleague, Mrs. Juliana Haskell, Ph.D., who so care- fully read the proof, I owe not a little. A. W. P. NEW YORKCITY, November, 1910. CONTENTS Immermann's General Relation to Romanticism : I .

Miscellaneous ............................... 153 xi INTRODUCTION Since the beginning of the third decade of the nineteenth century, an extremely resourceful theme for students of Ger- man literature has been "Romanticism." That so many treatises, pretentious and unpretentious, have been written on this subject argues, however, in no sense, that it is so deep as to be unfathomable, so broad as to be only vague. It is not discussion, but silence that condemns a work. Many com- mentaries have been written on " Faust," because it is sug- gestive. Romanticism deals with the suggestive rather than the determined phases of life. It has been treated, extensively, from the genetic, biographic, philosophic, popular and appre- ciative standpoints. It has been treated, intensively, from, one would think, every standpoint. But these briefer studies con- cern themselves almost entirely with narrow, individual phases, ofttimes idiosyncrasies of romanticism and consequently lack breadth and balance. And the larger studies, because so wholly philosophic, become abstruse and at times decidedly vague. The average reader will understand the text of " Lucinde" more easily than Haym's comment on it. Works like those of Dilthey, Joachimi and Kircher are of more value to the philosophic student than to the appreciative reader; yet the latter is part of a larger company. Thus far, no attempt has been made to give a broad, analytic, concrete picture of German romanticism; to note and classify those themes and devices that occur with significant frequency in romantic creations. There is a long series of works from Heine's " Romantische Schule " ( 1833) to Wernaer's " German Ro- manticism" (1910). But no one of these was written with the sole purpose of giving a well-rounded picture of romantic sources, themes and forms. Immermann's poetic activity extends over the period from 1820 to 1840. He was well read in the literature of his day, and, possessing a more receptive than productive mind, was 1 much given to imitation. That he was influenced by romanti- cism, no one denies. The nature and extent of this influence, no one has determined. He leaned most heavily on Cervantes, Calderon, Goethe and Tieck. During his lifetime he enjoyed but little favorable criticism. From his death to the centenary of his birth (1896) literature on his works was fairly exiguous. Since 18g6 there has been a mild Immermann revival. Opin- ions as to the eternal value of his poetry vary from the harsh sentence of Goedeke, who sees practically no good thing in him, to Geibel, who thinks that in "Merlin" he wrote a second " Faust " and that " Epigonen " and " Miinchhausen " deserve a double cheer. But no one of these criticisms concerns itself, except in a most casual and general way, with Immermann as a romanticist. The purpose of this study has been, then, twofold: (I) to determine Immermann's exact relation to romanticism; (2) to give a broad, concrete picture of romanticism, so far as this can be done with only Immermann as a background. It has been neither my purpose nor my duty to set up an epigrammatic definition of romanticism. I have tried, on the other hand, so to arrange the study that every sentence should constitute a part of a definition and delimitation of the term. It is, however, no more impossible of succinct definition than are such terms as " religion," " education," " success," " de- mocracy," or " pantheism." Goethe declared (Eckermann, April 2, 1829) romanticism to be diseased, Schiller (Beller- mann, Vol. VIII, 335-341) said it was sentimental, Jean Paul (Vorschule der Aesthetik, Vol. XVII, 74-94) said it was modem, Tieck (Kritische Schriften, Vol. 11, 237) said it was synonymous with poetic, Friedrich Schlegel (Minor, Vol. 11, 220) said it was progressive, universal poetry, Heine (Elster, Vol. V, 217) described it as being a revivification of the Middle Ages and Wernaer (German Romanticism, 24) calls it soul- culture. What it means to a given student depends largely on what writer or writers he reads most carefully. If he reads, for example, those two romanticists who were most similar, Novalis and Wackenroder, even here he will come to a different conclusion. In the one it is the art of religion, in the other the religion of art. And if he could read all of the romanticists, / he would very likely say with Fr. Schlegel that it is progressive, ' universal poetry. That romanticism is incapable of a concise definition is due to the fact that it can not be delimited as to time, and as a movement it passed through various stages of development. It would be very simple if we could set up " Wilhelm Meister" as the Magnu Charta of romanticism and date everything from 1796. But this would be like saying that the great French Revolution dated rigidly from 1789, and that there were no revolutionary signs previous to that year. Whereas, just as the writings of such men as Turgot and Adam Smith in- directly led up to the Revolution, so were there signs of an approaching romantic era long before the romantic doctrine had been formulated or the romantic school established. In- deed from the days of Otfried on there has always been a romantic strain in German literature. The writings of Jacob Bohme (1575-1624) contained two fundamental ro- mantic tenets-nature-philosophy and mysticism. It was simply during,the generation from 1795 to 1830 that romanti- cism was predominant. And it is just barely accurate to speak of a romantic " school " even during this period. The situation more nearly resembled a great romantic institute, with one school here and another there and still another some- where else, the leading spirits of which had, at times, hardly a speaking acquaintance one with another. They all taught, however, a similar doctrine. An illuminating picture of romanticism is contained in the history of its symbol,

Over the past few years, scholars have been devoting increasingly more attention to Wolfram’s Willehalm, primarily because of Gyburg’s so-called Toleranzrede and its theological implications. The aim of the present paper is to analyse the narrative construction of the concept of tolerance by examining how the figure of Gyburg and its interaction with other narrative instances (i.e. the narrator and other characters) in Wolfram’s work are constructed on the diegetic level to articulate a complex discourse on religious alterity from different standpoints, both within and outside the Christian world.

  • An Analysis of Richard Flatter's German Translation of Romeo and Juliet
    RICE UNIVERSITY An Analysis of Richard Flatter's German Translation of Romeo and Juliet t>y Sidney E. Disher, Jr. A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF Master of Arts Thesis Director's Signature: Houston, Texas May, 1968 Abstract An Analysis of Richard Flatter’s German Translation of Romeo and Juliet by Sidney E. Disher, Jr. Since its publication in the early nineteenth cen¬ tury, the Schlegel-Tieck translation of Shakespeare has gradually attained the status of a literary master-piece. Even today, it continues to dominate both on the stage and among the reading public as the "definitive" German Shake¬ speare translation. Despite its artistic merits, however, scholars and critics have become increasingly aware that the Schlegel- Tieck version contains serious deficiencies in literal and stylistic fidelity to the original. Numerous efforts to "correct" and "emend" the translation, however, proved largely unsuccessful, resulting, in most cases, in a mere bowdlerization of Schlegel's work. In light of the find¬ ings of contemporary research on Shakespeare and his art, and the weaknesses of the original and emended editions of the Schlegel-Tieck version, the case for a completely new translation has become ever stronger. Of the numerous recent attempts to meet this challenge, Richard Flatter's work is one of the most outstanding. A noted Shakespeare scholar in his own right, Flatter has pro¬ duced a translation which features dynamic, modern speech, and close attention to theatrical detail. In Flatter's view, Shakespeare was first of all a mar. of the theater, an able producer and director who used his great poetic talent to complement his theatrical aims.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Electronic Theses and Dissertations by an authorized administrator of Digital Commons @ ACU. ABSTRACT For decades, many scholars have been uncomfortable with the idea that some early Christians were eager to die. This led to the creation of the category “voluntary martyrdom” by which modern historians attempted to understand those martyrs who provoked their own arrest and/or death in some fashion. Scholars then connected this form of martyrdom with an early Christian movement called the New Prophecy, which came to be known as Montanism. Thus, scholars have scoured martyr accounts in an attempt to identify volunteers and, in some cases, label them Montanists. The Letter from the Churches of Vienna and Lyons and the martyrs it depicts did not escape such scrutiny. I contend that the martyrs in that account who have been accused of heresy are not only innocent of heresy but also should not be considered volunteers. This study surveys the role of the language of zeal and enthusiasm in the account of the martyrs of Lyons.

  • Hans-Hugo Steinhoff in Paderborn Von Andres Laubinger Und Jens Schneider
    Hans-Hugo Steinhoff in Paderborn von Andres Laubinger und Jens Schneider Am 1. April 2004 ist Hans-Hugo Steinhoff in Paderborn gestorben. Steinhoff wurde am 3. Oktober 1937 in Fulda geboren. Er studierte von 1957 bis 1963 an den Universitäten Marburg, München und Mainz Germanistik, Klassische Philologie und Philosophie. Im Dezember 1963 wurde er an der Philipps-Universität Marburg über „Die Darstellung gleichzeitiger Geschehnisse im mittelhochdeutschen Epos“ promoviert (s. u. nr. 21.013f.), im Frühjahr 1964 legte er das 1. Staatsexamen für das Lehramt an Gymnasien ab. Anschließend war er wissenschaftlicher Assistent bei Werner Schröder (1964–69), später Akademischer (Ober-)Rat an der Universität Stuttgart (1969–74) und ab 1974 Professor an der neugegründeten Gesamthochschule in Pader- born. Der vorliegende Beitrag ist der Versuch, die wissenschaftliche Arbeit und das hochschulpolitische Engagement einer außerordentlich unprätentiösen Persönlichkeit zu dokumentieren.1 Dazu wurde, teils aus dem Nachlass, teils mit den üblichen bibliographischen Hilfsmitteln, eine Auf- stellung der Publikationen Steinhoffs unternommen, die 355 Titel erfasst. Dieses rekonstruierte Schriftenverzeichnis wurde, auch wenn es wohl nicht als vollständig gelten darf, mit einer Ord- nungssystematik versehen, die einfache Verweise erlaubt. 1. Wirken in der Hochschule Hans-Hugo Steinhoff war von Mai 1974 bis Februar 2003 Professor für Deutsche Sprache und Literatur des Mittelalters an der Universität Paderborn. Mit Blick auf seine unbestechliche Arbeit in den verschiedenen Gremien der Paderborner Hochschule konnte er als eine Institution der Paderborner Geisteswissenschaften gelten. Von 1976 bis 1983 gehörte er als Konrektor für For- schung dem erneuerten und verlängerten Gründungsrektorat der Gesamthochschule unter Friedrich Buttler an. Zuvor war er schon ein Jahr Mitglied der Struktur- und Haushalts- kommission gewesen.

  • Links Between Attitudes Towards Climate and Welfare Policies
    sustainability Article Public Support for Sustainable Welfare Compared: Links between Attitudes towards Climate and Welfare Policies Martin Fritz 1,* and Max Koch 2 1 Junior Research Group “Mentalities in Flux” (flumen), Institute of Sociology, Friedrich Schiller University Jena, Humboldtstraße 34, 07743 Jena, Germany 2 Socialhögskolan, Lund University, Box 23, 22100 Lund, Sweden * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 27 June 2019; Accepted: 30 July 2019; Published: 1 August 2019 Abstract: The emerging concept of sustainable welfare attempts to integrate environmental sustainability and social welfare research. Oriented at a mid-term re-embedding of Western production and consumption norms into planetary limits, it suggests the development of “eco-social” policies in the rich countries. In this theoretical context, this article empirically investigates the relationships between attitudes towards welfare and climate policy in 23 countries. Using 2016 data from the European Social Survey, we explored patterns of synergy between both kinds of policies as well as effects of crowding-out, where support for one kind of policy involves refusing the other. Since previous research addressed the role of welfare states and their institutional foundations in establishing environmentally sustainable societies, we studied how attitudes towards welfare and climate policies differ according to welfare regime affiliation. Additionally, we examined how a range of socio-demographic and political factors such as class, education, income, and political position shape people’s views on welfare and climate policy goals. The results of a multiple correspondence analysis indicate that the simultaneous support of welfare and climate policies follows welfare regime lines in that this support is the highest among social-democratic countries.
