Повний текст джерелаAttribution in art history meets various criteria, which can be studied with regard to the history of the art market but also the history of taste. Raphael, whose art has been the subject of numerous attributions or disattributions, is in this respect a textbook case. The study of six drawings and paintings corresponding to the three periods of Raphael's career made it possible to identify characteristics relating to attribution reasoning not only for the painter studied but also for modern painting in general. These reasonings obey a well-established discourse which was put in place during the 19th century under the double influence of the natural sciences and the models of textual, philological and historical criticism. The latter is part of the tradition of the Maurists and within the framework of the institutionalization of knowledge which is taking place particularly in Germany for the new discipline that represents the history of art. Very quickly it is possible to observe a personalization of the attribution, a work by Raphael being able to be given to the master only by a “Raphaelist”. The study of different attributionist texts spanning nearly two centuries has made it possible to understand the problem of taste and thus to explain the changes in attribution for the same work. The beginnings of the history of art in Germany are parallel to the emergence, under the influence of the first German romantics of a new taste for the Primitives which will lastingly influence the view of the "Raphaelists" who will seek to build a corpus of early works and will devalue those of the Roman period whose classicism is beginning to fall out of fashion. This change of view on Raphael first took place within the framework of a revival of Catholicism and would continue at the end of the 19th century with the rejection of academicism, for which Roman Raphael was judged responsible. However, over the past twenty years, the Roman period has been revalued, leading to the reattribution of Roman works to the master himself and allowing a new study of the notion of attribution

The use of basso continuo in the performance of many late eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century genres is well documented, yet the influence of this practice on the Lieder during that time has never been fully explored. This dissertation analyzes Lied accompaniments of the period in relation to the recommendations found in contemporary thorough bass treatises in order to demonstrate that continuo practice did have an effect both on what composers were writing and how the songs were being performed. The majority of written-out Lied accompaniments from the late eighteenth-century conform to the recommendations given by treatise authors on matters of texture, distribution of the notes between the hands, octave doublings, parallel intervals, embellishments, and relationship of the keyboard part to the solo line. Furthermore, figured basses were still printed in some songs into the early part of the nineteenth century. Well-known nineteenth-century Lied composers, such as Schubert, Mendelssohn, and Brahms also frequently use these simple, continuo-like keyboard parts, and incorporate common continuo techniques for filling out chords into their more complex accompaniments. The fact that continuo practice, a tradition in which improvisation played a large role, continued to have such a pervasive influence on the printed Lied suggests that additions and embellishments can be made to what is written on the page. Furthermore, evidence from secondary sources, statements by musicians of the period, and clues in the music itself confirm that composers did not always intend for performers to play exactly what is notated. In this dissertation, I argue that in many of these songs the musical score should be viewed as only a basic outline, which can then be adapted depending on the skill level of the performers, the available keyboard instruments, and the context of the performance. Principles from the continuo treatises serve as a guide for knowing what additions to make, and I offer suggestions of possible applications. Appendices detail the contents of 50 continuo treatises published between 1750 and 1810.

Abstract: The reasearch consists in studying the poetic and philosophical expression existing in the novel Lucinde ( 1799 ), by Friedrich Schlegel ( 1772-1829). Critic and thinker from that period, Schlegel renders in this piece , through his language and structure, the ideal of the Early German Romanticism ( Frühromantik ). Based on the subjective idealism from the philosophy of Johann Gottlieb Fichte, Schlegel developes a concept wich he names "universal pregressive poetry". In Lucinde, Schlegel conceives a historical-critic novel in wich the process of maturation lived by the protagonist ( Júlio ) - from his tempestuous youth to his harmonious life with Lucinda - can be seen as an allegory of the course traversed by the Romantism since the arising of Sturm und Drang ( a rupture phase with the illuminist principles ), passing from the forming process ( Bildung ), to the present moment lived by Schlegel: the production of Lucinde and the circle of Jena; being the text a transient between the praise and the critique of this historical-literary course of the Germany in the eighteenth century. The production of the Frühromantik's thinker moved around philosophical essays specially, literature history and literary critique; and the Schlegel's novel comprehends the infinities of these issues. Lucinde is quite far away from being an entertainment novel: it's a romantic project. Philosophy, literary critique and literature history turned into art.

Повний текст джерелаThe aim of our study was to identify "myth-like" structures in prose texts of German early Romanticism. The theory on which we rely is the theory of the "formal myth" according to Clemens Lugowski. Our hypothesis was that in the novels and tales of German early Romanticism there were very often "mythical" structures and qualities (in the sense of a formal myth) that are linked equivocally to modern narrative structures. These mythical and premodern structures are particularly evident in the motivation of action and in the accumulation of fateful and genealogical motives. Our study was carried out in three steps. In a first step, we analyzed, discussed and adapted the theories of narrative motivation and formal myth. Then we broadened the subject from a historico-cultural perspective, explaining the contemporary role of myth, mythology and the romantic concept of the "new mythology" as well as the idea of genealogy at the end of the 18th century in Germany. We concluded the historico-cultural part with a chapter about the situation of editions, authors and popular literature around 1800. We then concentrated the analyzes of the texts on mythical structures that appeared in the motifs, in the form and in the peritexts of the tales and novels of German early Romanticism. Our corpus of texts consisted of tales and novels by Ludwig Tieck, Friedrich Schiller, Johann Wolfgang Goethe, Clemens Brentano, Dorothea Veit and Novalis

Повний текст джерелаThe present paper aims to investigate the concepts of critique and experience in the work of Walter Benjamin written in the years around 1920, which was derived from On the program of the coming philosophy written in 1918 and thus to highlight their intertwined relationship with the concepts of myth and Enlightenment. To do so, this paper focuses on Benjamin\'s doctorate thesis, The concept of art criticism in German romanticism, as well as on his critical essay on Goethes Elective Affinities. Regarding the first one, we show that the concept of immanent critique joins the perspectives of romantic philosophy and poetics, which is particularly due to the hidden presence of messianism in the concept of reflection. In the second one, we focus on the problem of critique and experience in a new formulation, whose developments show the relations between myth and Enlightenment, which also includes a critique of the eternal return, the mythical concept of time.

Повний текст джерелаEarly German Romanticism : Magic idealism, das Unbedingte, the quest of the Infinite constitute multiple expressions of this short-lived litterary and philosophical movement dominated by Novalis and the Schlegel brothers who aspire to give to the act of creation the aspect of a radical event, the transformations of which appear in the works of René Char, Jean Giono, Julien Gracq et Léopold Sédar Senghor who revendicate to effectuate a reappropriation of the concepts of the Early German Romanticism. Is it a rereading, a reinvention or the constitution of an aesthetic vision for the construction of which the Early German Romanticism proves to be an indispensable reference ?

Повний текст джерелаThe main purpose of this dissertation is the translation and study of the Charakteristik characterization, written by Friedrich Schlegel about Giovanni Boccaccio, called Nachricht von den poetischen Werken des Johannes Boccaccio, Note on the poetic works of Giovanni Boccaccio, from 1801, as well as to establish its importance for the theory of the short prose narrative called Novelle. The preliminary study prior to the translation has been separated in two parts, in which we aim at understanding the importance of Friedrich Schlegels critical theory, highlight the peculiarities of the translated characterization, and describe the main procedures of the German critic. At the study we also seek to analyze the theories about the novelle from the period known as the early German romanticism, trying to define the contribution of Friedrich Schlegel for these theories, and clarify certain aspects of his reception by the Western literary criticism. The main hypothesis we formulate is that Schlegels characterization is an example of literary hermeneutics, capable of mixing a philosophical, philological and poetic analyze within a historical approach. This way, the intrinsic and extrinsic factors of the literary artwork would be seen as an organic whole. This critical artwork, as Schlegel used to define his Charakteristik, would stand for the sensus spiritualis as well as for the sensus literalis, contemplating, in its letter and spirit, the tendency [Tendenz] of the work, which would be the result of a progressive, divinatory and universal critical analyze of literary phenomenon.

Повний текст джерелаThe dissertation explores the evolution of the concept of the Total Work of Art (ʹGesamtkunstwerkʹ) as well as its actuality, feasibility and necessity in the form of a modern cinematic Gesamtkunstwerk. Starting point is the aesthetic theory and praxis of the Early German Romanticism, in which the concept is rooted. An extensive consideration and analysis of the concept in both its aesthetic and socio-political dimension as developed in the writings and works of Richard Wagner aims to define its essential structural features and to set the standard for a ʹpositiveʹ contemporary Gesamtkunstwerk beyond its ideological abuse. Key is the examination of how and to what extend the sound and colour feature film constitutes a legit artistic medium for the application of the concept as well as how its sociopolitical facet translates within the global era.

Повний текст джерелаThe purpose of this art history dissertation is to shed new light on the relation between the philosophy of Johann Gottlieb Fichte (1762-1814) and the artistic practice of some of early German romanticism's leading figures, namely, Friedrich Schlegel (1772-1829), August Wilhelm Schlegel (1767-1845), Friedrich von Hardenberg (“Novalis,” 1772-1801), and Caspar David Friedrich (1774-1840). Although this link has previously been established in the historiography on German romanticism, I contend that Fichte's importance to the romantic movement does not hinge on the content of his philosophical writings (i.e., the Wissenschaftslehre as a theory of subjectivity or as a theory of freedom), nor on Fichte's political beliefs (republicanism, egalitarianism, the universality of Right). Rather, the driving force behind the romantic project resides in the pragmatic dynamics of the Wissenschaftslehre itself, that is, on its communicational and pedagogical framework. In reference to the work of leading Fichte scholars publishing in the field of the history of philosophy, I argue that Fichte's Wissenschaftslehre consists in an original, self-referential representational system whose putative user is indexed within the very system he or she drives. In the final analysis, the reception of such a system coincides with its production, and both are a function of its performative character. In keeping with the epistemological framework of art history, I propose a reading of Fichte that makes use of two methodological approaches, namely, the semiology of representational systems (Louis Marin) and narratology (Gérard Genette, Mieke Bal). Based on this approach, I contend that the Schlegel brothers', Hardenberg's, and C. D. Friedrich's respective artistic practices make use of the Wissenschaftslehre's pragmatic dynamics in order to rethink the way in which pictorial or textual representations shape their beholders (both aesthetically and politically). Ultimately, this dissertation aims to contribute to current debates on the power of images in the modern context, and to understand Fichte’s and the romantics' heretofore unacknowledged contribution to the theory of the agency of images.

There are certain influences from the eighteenth and nineteenth century English and German romantic Zeitgeist that can be discerned in Hans Christian Andersen’s fairy tales. The role of the imagination stands out as a particularly dominant notion of the romantic period as opposed to the emphasis on reason during the Enlightenment. It is this romantic influence that Andersen’s tales especially exemplify. For him the imagination is transcendent – one can overcome the mystery and hardship of an earthly existence by recasting situations imaginatively and one can even be elevated to a higher, spiritual realm by its power. The transcendent power of the imagination is best understood by viewing it through the lens of negative capability, a concept put forward by romantic poet, John Keats. The concept implies an “imaginative openness” to what is, which allows one to tolerate life’s uncertainties and the inexplicable suffering that forms part of one’s earthly existence by using the imagination to open up new potential within trying circumstances. In selected fairy tales, Andersen’s child protagonists transcend their circumstances by the power of their imagination. In other tales, nature is instrumental in this imaginative transcendence. The natural world conveys spiritual truths and has a moralising influence on the characters, bringing them closer to the Ultimate Creator. This follows the philosophy of German Naturphilosophie, as well as that of English romantics like Coleridge and Wordsworth, for whom nature functions as a portal to the spiritual world. The concept of the “sublime” underpins this philosophy. If nature is viewed through an imaginative, instead of an empirical lens, it becomes the means by which the temporal world can be transcended. It is a message of hope and as such is in keeping with Andersen’s self professed calling as visionary who uses his art to uplift mankind. In this he is the ultimate romantic hero or outsider who, while standing on the periphery of society, observes its shortcomings and feels called upon to show the way to a better world.
Sekere invloede van agtiende- en negentiende eeuse Engelse en Duitse romantisisme kan in Hans Christian Andersen se feëverhale bespeur word. Veral die rol van die verbeelding staan uit as ‘n dominante invloed van romantisisme, in teenstelling met die laat sewentien- en vroeë agtiende eeuse fokus op rasionaliteit. Dit is hierdie romantiese invloed wat Andersen se verhale veral versinnebeeld. Vir hom is die verbeelding transendentaal – ‘n mens kan die misterie en swaarkry van jou aardse bestaan oorkom deur situasies deur die oog van die verbeelding te bejeën en kan selfs deur die mag van die verbeelding opgehef word na ‘n hoër, meer spirituele vlak. Die transendentale mag van die verbeelding kan beter begryp word wanneer dit deur die lens van “negative capability” gesien word. Hierdie konsep is deur die romantiese digter, John Keats, voorgestel. Die konsep impliseer ‘n verbeeldingryke openheid in die aangesig van aardse onsekerheid en swaarkry, wat die mens uiteindelik in staat stel om nuwe potensiaal in moeilike omstandighede raak te sien. In uitgekose feëverhale, oorkom Andersen se kinderprotagoniste hul moeilike omstandighede deur die mag van die verbeelding. In ander verhale is die natuur deurslaggewend in dié transendentale verbeeldingsreis. Nie net dra die natuur geestelike waarhede oor nie, maar dit het ook ‘n moraliserende invloed op die karakters, wat hulle nader aan ‘n Opperwese bring. Dit herinner aan die Duitse Naturphilosophie, asook die sienswyse van Engelse romantikusse soos Coleridge en Wordsworth, vir wie die natuur ‘n deurgangsroete na die geestelike wêreld is. Die idee van die “sublime” is onderliggend aan hierdie filosofie. As die natuur deur middel van die verbeeldingslens, in plaas van deur ‘n empiriese lens bejeën word, kan dit ‘n manier word om die aardse te oorkom. Dit is dus ‘n boodskap van hoop wat in lyn is met Andersen se selfopgelegde taak as profeet wat sy kuns gebruik om die mensdom op te hef. In hierdie opsig is hy die absolute romantiese held of buitestaander, wat, ofskoon hy aan die buitewyke van die samelewing staan, tóg tekortkominge raaksien en geroepe voel om die weg na ‘n beter wêreld te wys.
