Abstract:

The first French-language treatises on emblems appeared in the seventeenth century, but prior to their appearance, many authors of emblem texts and vernacular translations offered glimpses in their paratextual material—prefaces and dedicatory letters, for the most part—of their concept of the emblem. As a rapidly emerging genre, the emblem itself underwent a series of transformations, and and attempt at developing a true theory of the emblem was rendered impossible not only by those but by the commercial pressures associated with attempting to take advantage of the new market for illustrated b

Abstract:

Abstract Andrea Alciato’s Emblematum libellus of 1534 is generally regarded as the beginning of the genre of emblematics. Using the emblem Insignia Poetarum (“The Poets’ Crest”) contained therein, this essay aims to show how the genre already reflects itself here in its origins. The second part of the article focuses on the transformations of the emblem in German-, French- and Spanish-language transcriptions of the 16th century. For in these modifications, a discussion about the activity of emblem writing and the understanding of emblems becomes tangible in both image and text.

Abstract:

With its more than 90 mediaeval churches, the island of Gotland bears witness to its former wealth due to its position as the nave of maritime trade in the Baltic Sea. The city of Visby was an early and independent member of the German Hanse, but in 1361, it was captured and plundered by the Danish King Valdemar IV Atterdag. The Danes never obtained total control of the island and in 1645 it was ceded to Sweden. After another brief period under Danish reign (1676–1679), Gotland was finally conceded to Sweden in 1679. The wars had left the island ravaged and impoverished, but it nevertheless ma

This article examines the politics of wine making in Alsace in the two decades after the region returned to French rule in 1918. During these years Alsatian wine makers worked to transform their wines to meet the tastes of French drinkers, following five decades of producing wine for German consumption. As wine makers grappled with the question of how to secure the future of their industry, Alsatian wine became emblematic of the most contentious aspects of Alsace's reintegration into France. The introduction of new laws on viticulture raised the question of what was French about wine, the wine

Comparing the formatting of thirteenth-century French chansonniers and fifteenth-century collections of monophonic songs (BnF fr. 9346 and BnF fr. 12744), there are obvious differences in the mise-en-page. But when, where and why did the changes in the production of manuscripts and the materialisation of songs take place?

Abstract:

Some years ago, I realized that I was the first historian of Germany hired in a tenure-track position at Amherst College. I got my job in 2000. Steeped in German history, I was surprised that a premier liberal arts college chose to hire a historian of Germany only at the very end of the twentieth century. My generation of historians of Germany often think—and other historians of Europe share our perception—that German history is a strong (if not the strongest) field in modern European history. Whether measured anecdotally by the number of job openings, the number of historians hired, the strea

Abstract:

Benford’s Law states that, in many real-world data sets, the frequency of numbers’ first digits is predicted by the formula log(1 + (1/d)). Numbers beginning with a 1 occur roughly 30% of the time, and are six times more common than numbers beginning with a 9. We show that Benford’s Law applies to the the frequency rank of words in English, German, French, Spanish, and Italian. We calculated the frequency rank of words in the Google Ngram Viewer corpora. Then, using the first significant digit of the frequency rank, we found the FSD distribution adhered to the expected Benford’s Law distributi

Abstract The period 1500-1800 saw the publication of a number of manuals and handbooks containing instructions for carving meat and fruit on the table, and folding napkins and other linens. These books contain information on otherwise invisible aspects of material and social life and are notable for their intriguing and often beautiful illustrations. Part of a larger category of texts that addressed courtesy, etiquette and behavior for household servants, people in charge of them, and those who aspired to this lifestyle, examples of the genre may be found in Italian, French, German, English, D

Abstract The Astérix comic-book series, originally in French, is well-known and widely translated. Each book relates an adventurous episode in which the principal character is Astérix, a small, witty warrior from a fictional Gaulish village, the only village to have successfully resisted the Roman occupation. The series relies on many humorous techniques, but word-play and puns form an integral part. Much humour derives from the names used, combining various comic effects, particularly puns and double entendres. Thus the translator faces not only the usual problems in translating literary name

Abstract: French Resistance member Jean Decan was Hemingway’s driver and bodyguard during World War II. In late 1945, Decan was denounced as a German collaborator, and both Hemingway and his friend General Buck Lanham wrote in his defense. Decan was found guilty and sentenced to 15 years hard labor, leaving Hemingway furious about his lie. In 1951, Decan appeared at Lanham’s command headquarters, indicating he had betrayed a Resistance teammate in order to save his Jewish family. Lanham enlisted a prominent journalist to help, and the latter would write three books featuring Decan’s moral dile
