Abstract:
With great enthusiasm and excitement I turned to this English translation of the Erlauer Spiele, magisterially done by Stephen K. Wright, Professor Emeritus of English at the Catholic University of America, and I was not disappointed. With great philological skills and great aplomb he tackles his task and makes available five major Christmas and Easter plays from fifteenth-century Carinthia, today in Austria, from the first half of the fifteenth century, in English. He introduces us in a very learned, yet also very lucid and clearly structured manner to the genre itself and the specifics of th

This article discusses the history of creative contacts between the great Norwegian playwright Henrik Ibsen and the German poet Christian Morgenstern (1871–1914). Christian Morgenstern’s life was short and marred by physical suffering, but fantastically full and diverse in creative terms. A significant part of Christian Morgenstern’s lyrical and epistolary legacy was published only after his death thanks to the efforts of his wife and friends. Christian Morgenstern’s translations of Henrik Ibsen’s works date from the late 19th century, when the new Solomon Fischer’s publishing house (S. Fische

AbstractThis paper investigates the reception history of the Danish Poet and fairytale writer Hans Christian Andersen in 19th-century Germany and its influence on his (auto)biographical depiction. Like many Scandinavian poets, Andersen discovered Germany’s literary potential and took advantage of it to further his career. In most cases, he was pictured as a genius who suffered systematic underestimation in Denmark. This narrative which determined his reception plays a central role in his German autobiography Märchen meines Lebens (Fairy Tale of my Life). Analyzing Andersen’s autobiographical d

German and Austrian historiography of the Holy League war is an essential source because German and Austrian historians have analyzed Russia's participation in this war since the 18th century. The discussion revolves around three main questions: about the moment of Russia's accession to the Holy League de jure and de facto; about the qualification of the Holy League as an international anti-Turkish and anti-Crimean alliance; finally, about the peculiarities of social and technological cooperation between the Venetian Republic, the Holy Roman Empire, and Russia.

Abstract:
This article considers the work and reception of Friedrich Hölderlin with regard to the impact of German Idealism on religion. To this end, two questions must be clarified in advance: can Hölderlin, who is known primarily as a poet, also be placed in the context of German Idealism, and does his work have a significant relationship to religion? I argue that both questions should be answered in the affirmative. Ernst Cassirer’s study Hölderlin und der deutsche Idealismus (1918/19) clearly laid the foundation for appreciating Hölderlin’s place within German Idealism, and the question of God is a

The new era of Slovene spiritual, cultural and, in a certain sense, political history, is marked by the condition of exile. The first Slovene book, printed in 1550, was written by Primož Trubar, a Protestant, emigrant and exile par excellence. Trubar and his followers translated, wrote, made plans, and worked, “for the prosperity of their homeland,” in exile; therefore, the fundamental document of Judeo-Christian civilization and culture—the Holy Bible—was translated into Slovene, in exile.

In such works, we can speak of a ‘Giraffi effect’, given the influence of the account most often translated, and read, in Europe. It surfaces in the extraordinary dialogue in the Afterlife, between William Tell and the Neapolitan capopopolo, by David Faßmann.

Abstract The chapter focuses on a central topic in eighteenth-century German philosophy, namely the meaning of fortune and misfortune within God’s government of the world. It also considers the role these concepts play in orienting moral actions. Since the debate is relatively wide, the chapter discusses a specific episode, namely the criticism raised by Georg Friedrich Meier in the early 1750s against a common view that goes back to Wolff’s statements in his ethical work. I will argue that their divergent opinions concerning the possibility of considering fortune and misfortune as proper mean

The distinction between duties of virtue and rules of prudence allows Crusius to advance a nuanced reception of Wolff’s theses on the duty to

Twenty-five years after Anton Bruckner’s death, groups formed in Germany to revise the composer’s biography, highlighting Bruckner as a German mystic in the medieval tradition of Meister Eckhart and his successors, and thus a figure newly divorced from the facts of his (Austrian) life. Through reference to monographs from this 1920s Bruckner renaissance—by Karl Grunsky, Oskar Lang, Erich Schwebsch, and Richard Wetz —this chapter demonstrates that, despite their ‘anti-modern’ rhetoric, these authors engaged mystic doctrine to advocate connection to a new sense of community above the individual
