BIOGRAPHICAL SUPPLEMENT INTRODUCTION With a few exceptions, the German-speaking travellers who left accounts of their Scottish visits during the first six decades of the nineteenth century are to-day unknown. It has thus been considered necessary to supplement the discussion of their works with biograph- ical information. In each case emphasis has been laid on the years preceding the Scottish visit and on those influences which will have had a bearing on the traveller's attitude to his or her tour of Scotland. This biographical study serves to explain attitudes and points of view, while revealing that many of the travellers were important and esteemed public figures in their day, with interests ranging from commerce to medicine, politics to the Arts. Only a few lived off their travels, with professional concern for geography or anthropology; for the rest concern for these subjects was genuine enough, but travel and travel-writing merely provided them with a fashionable and enjoyable pastime. As a group of men and women writing from'the standpoint of varying age and means, a 'romantically' inspired Scottish visit is often the only common point of comparison; biographical background thus becomes all the more relevant. The travellers are treated in chronological order of their visits rather than alphabetically or according to dates of birth. This is particularly relevant with regard to their knowledge of works on Scotland already published prior to their tours. Information on four of the visitors is referred to in the Bibliography alone. In the case of Victor Aime Huber this is because I was able to refer to his acoount only in the final stages of my research; the remaining three, Ida Gräfin Hahn-Hahn, Alfred Meissner and Helmuth Graf von Moltke, did not leave sufficient account of their visits to warrant further investigation. Meissner, however, is mentioned with regard to his father, Eduard. For the most part the biographical reference works referred to have been restricted to contemporary publications or to those published within a few decades of the death of the traveller concerned. In some cases, the travellers' autobiographies have been consulted. On account of obvious translation difficulties, titles and rank and names of institutions have mostly been left in the original German. A brief outline of each individual tour is also given. 1. GOEDE Christian August Gottlieb Goode (variously Ode) was born in Dresden on 20th February, 1774. He studied law in Leipzig and gained a doctorate from that university. From 1802-3 he accompanied the Legationsrath Baron von Blümner on a journey through Britain and his work, England, Wales, Irland und Schottland. Erinnerungen an Natur und Kunst aus einer Reise in den Jahren 1802 und 1803, is the result of this tour. Goode also spent some time in Paris but felt ill at ease with French people and customs. He was later to return to London alone in order to work on his proposed detailed study of the British Isles. From London he moved to Göttingen and here he gave up his legal profession in favour of the study of the natural sciences, in particular medicine. At this stage, he even planned to return to London to practise as a medical doctor there, but in 1805 he abandoned this idea to take up a post as Ausserordentlicher Professor der Rechte und der Philosophie at Jena. His dissertation, Jus Germanicum Privatum, was published in GGttingen in the following year. Also in 1806 he completed and edited a legal text book which had been left of unfinished by a deceased colleague, K. W. Patz. The loss a further work, which was mislaid and never recovered after Goads's own death, was considered by one of his friends to be greats Sollte sich dies Manuscript nicht wiedergefunden haben? Der Verlust wäre um so betrübender, da ein Werk dieser Art von einem so tiefdenkenden, kenntnissreichen, sorgfältigen und gewissenhaften Manne der deutschen Geschichte und Literatur zu einem bleibenden Denkmale gereichen würde. (quoted in Ersch/Cruber, voll. p. 61) Goode was still not content with his profession, however. His old friend, the novelist Friedrich Laun (1770-1849)1, recounts in his memoirs that Goode visited him at this time in Dresden and was depressed and gloomy. Firmly anti-French, and all the more so after the Battle of Jena in October, 1806, Goode was all set to leave Jena. He packed a few things together and had a horse and cart waiting, when a deputation of two fellow professors came to him from a Senate meeting to try to persuade him to stay and work for the safety of Jena which was not yet in the hands of the French. Fearing repercussions after an essay he had written attacking Napoleon, Goode fled refused and the town. He was offered a chair in Rostock as 2. professor of Law and was on his way there when he was offered the equivalent post in Göttingen and decided to accept the latter. He took up this post in 1807. In Göttingen he was to become very close (1751-1821) to the writer Christian Leberecht Heyne - "an Heyne fand Gönner für ihn Freund" er ... einen und väterlich sorgenden (Ersch/Gruber, vol. 1, p. 60). Coeds proved himself a popular lecturer, especially in view of the changes brought about by political events; he was to put forward the opinion that a legal system based on Roman and British law was no longer adequate. He made close and careful study of the Greek orators in order to enhance his own lecturing style, but even though he was still only in his thirties his hard work soon began to tell on his physical condition and friends, col- leagues and doctors finally persuaded him to take a travel break. He returned to Paris, but instead of resting, he renewed his academic labours with vigour. Having become acquainted with the orientalist, Sylvestre de Sacy, he could not resist throwing himself into the study of Arabic. This was to be the ruin of his health, however, and he was forced to return to Göttingen, where he died on 2nd July, 1812, aged 38. One of his friends said of him: Wer ihn kannte und seine wahrhaft edle, herzlich gute Natur, sein unermüdetes redliches Streben, der konnte dem herr- lichen, nur durch Mixgeschick aller Art um den Frohsinn seiner tadellosen Jugend gebrachten Manne den innigsten Antheil nicht versagen. (quoted in Ersch/Gruber, vol. 1, p. 61) Although Goode scarcely so much as mentions Scotland in his work on Britain, it is nonetheless of significance here on account of its wide popularity; Dbring considers it his main work. Many of the later travellers refer to Goode (for instance Niemeyer, Maidinger 2) and Spiker, Maidinger calling him "der klare, gemüth-und geistvolle Göde (nicht Goethe)"! (Maidinger, Risen, p. iii). The first three parts of England, Wales, Irland und Schottland were published in Dresden in 1804, parts four and five in 1805. Goode had also published excerpts from parts four and five in the 'Dresdener Abendzeitung' that year. Parts one to four deal almost exclusively with London, part five with some of the West of England and part six, a project which never in fact appeared, was to have dealt with Ireland. The three volume second edition ("2te völlig umgearbeitete u. verbesserte Ausgabe") was published by Arnold in 1806, also in Dresden. The work was translated into English first as The Stranger in England. or 3. Travels in Great Britain; containing remarks on the politics, laws, etc. of that country (3 volumes, London 1807). It was also published in Dutch translation at Haarlem in 1805 - 7.

  • The Affirmation of the Will

    Cambridge University Press 978-1-107-62695-9 - Schopenhauer: A Biography David E. Cartwright Excerpt More information 1 The Affirmation of the Will RTHUR SCHOPENHAUER VIEWED himself as homeless. This sense of A homelessness became the leitmotif of both his life and his philos- ophy. After the first five years of his life in Danzig, where he was born on 22 February 1788, his family fled the then free city to avoid Prus- sian control. From that point on, he said, “I have never acquired a new home.”1 He lived in Hamburg on and off for fourteen years, but he had his best times when he was away from that city. When he left Hamburg, he felt as if he were escaping a prison. He lived for four years in Dresden, but he would only view this city as the birthplace of his principal work, The World as Will and Representation. More than a decade in Berlin did nothing to give him a sense of belonging. He would angrily exclaim that he was no Berliner. After living as a noncitizen resident in Frankfurt am Main for the last twenty-eight years of his life, and after spending fifty years attempting to understand the nature and meaning of the world, he would ultimately conclude that the world itself was not his home. If one were to take this remark seriously, then even Danzig had not been his home. He was homeless from birth. But being homeless from birth did not mean that there was no point to his life. Schopenhauer would also conclude that from birth he had a mission in life.

    THE VIRTUOSO UNDER SUBJECTION: HOW GERMAN IDEALISM SHAPED THE CRITICAL RECEPTION OF INSTRUMENTAL VIRTUOSITY IN EUROPE, c. 1815–1850 A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Zarko Cvejic August 2011 © 2011 Zarko Cvejic THE VIRTUOSO UNDER SUBJECTION: HOW GERMAN IDEALISM SHAPED THE CRITICAL RECEPTION OF INSTRUMENTAL VIRTUOSITY IN EUROPE, c. 1815–1850 Zarko Cvejic, Ph. D. Cornell University 2011 The purpose of this dissertation is to offer a novel reading of the steady decline that instrumental virtuosity underwent in its critical reception between c. 1815 and c. 1850, represented here by a selection of the most influential music periodicals edited in Europe at that time. In contemporary philosophy, the same period saw, on the one hand, the reconceptualization of music (especially of instrumental music) from ―pleasant nonsense‖ (Sulzer) and a merely ―agreeable art‖ (Kant) into the ―most romantic of the arts‖ (E. T. A. Hoffmann), a radically disembodied, aesthetically autonomous, and transcendent art and on the other, the growing suspicion about the tenability of the free subject of the Enlightenment. This dissertation‘s main claim is that those three developments did not merely coincide but, rather, that the changes in the aesthetics of music and the philosophy of subjectivity around 1800 made a deep impact on the contemporary critical reception of instrumental virtuosity. More precisely, it seems that instrumental virtuosity was increasingly regarded with suspicion because it was deemed incompatible with, and even threatening to, the new philosophic conception of music and via it, to the increasingly beleaguered notion of subjective freedom that music thus reconceived was meant to symbolize.

    03/05/2017 Arthur Schopenhauer (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy) Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy Arthur Schopenhauer First published Mon May 12, 2003; substantive revision Sat Nov 19, 2011 Among 19th century philosophers, Arthur Schopenhauer was among the first to contend that at its core, the universe is not a rational place. Inspired by Plato and Kant, both of whom regarded the world as being more amenable to reason, Schopenhauer developed their philosophies into an instinct­recognizing and ultimately ascetic outlook, emphasizing that in the face of a world filled with endless strife, we ought to minimize our natural desires for the sake of achieving a more tranquil frame of mind and a disposition towards universal beneficence. Often considered to be a thoroughgoing pessimist, Schopenhauer in fact advocated ways — via artistic, moral and ascetic forms of awareness — to overcome a frustration­filled and fundamentally painful human condition. Since his death in 1860, his philosophy has had a special attraction for those who wonder about life's meaning, along with those engaged in music, literature, and the visual arts. 1.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 ABSTRACT In the historiography of pharmacology and therapeutics, the 18th century is regarded as a period of transition from traditional, Galenistic materia medica to the beginnings of modern, experimental drug research. Ackerknecht (1973) characterized the pharmacotherapy of this period as a "chaotic mixture of chemiatric and Galenistic practices", yet acknowledged an "increasing tendency toward empiricism, partly even true experimentalism". This thesis explores this transitional phase for the first time in depth, examining the relations between pharmacological experimentation, theory-building, and therapeutic practice. Furthermore, ethical aspects are highlighted. The general introduction discusses the secondary literature and presents the results of a systematic study of pharmacological articles in relevant 18th-century periodicals. The identified main areas of contemporary interest, the spectrum of methods applied, and the composition of the authorship are described and interpreted.

  • Liszt and Christus: Reactionary Romanticism

    Liszt and Christus: Reactionary Romanticism

    LISZT AND CHRISTUS: REACTIONARY ROMANTICISM A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY by Robert Pegg May 2020 Examining Committee Members: Dr. Maurice Wright, Advisory Chair, Music Studies Dr. Michael Klein, Music Studies Dr. Paul Rardin, Choral Activities Dr. Christine Anderson, Voice and Opera, external member © Copyright 2020 by Robert Pegg All Rights Reserved € ii ABSTRACT This dissertation seeks to examine the historical context of Franz Lizt’s oratorio Christus and explore its obscurity. Chapter 1 makes note of the much greater familiarity of other choral works of the Romantic period, and observes critics’ and scholars’ recognition (or lack thereof) of Liszt’s religiosity. Chapter 2 discusses Liszt’s father Adam, his religious and musical experiences, and his influence on the young Franz. Chapter 3 explores Liszt’s early adulthood in Paris, particularly with respect to his intellectual growth. Special attention is given to François-René, vicomte de Chateaubriand and the Abbé Félicité de Lamennais, and the latter’s papal condemnation. After Chapter 4 briefly chronicles Liszt’s artistic achievements in Weimar and its ramifications for the rest of his work, Chapter 5 examines theological trends in the nineteenth century, as exemplified by David Friedrich Strauss, and the Catholic Church’s rejection of such novelties. The writings of Charles Rosen aid in decribing the possible musical ramifications of modern theology. Chapter 6 takes stock of the movements for renewal in Catholic music, especially the work of Prosper Gueranger and his fellow Benedictine monks of Solesmes, France, and of the Society of Saint Cecilia in Germany.
