Abstract:
This essay argues that during the Quarrel of the Ancients and Moderns in late seventeenth-century Paris, the life of the ancient Roman poet, Ovid, held a particular appeal for the ‘Moderns’. Tracing the historiography of Ovid's life from his autobiographical Tristia through the Renaissance vitae Ovidii to the prefatory vies d'Ovide of the seventeenth century reveals that lives were synecdochic for ideological stances towards the representation and translation of the ancient world; and that there was a specific identification between the narration of Ovid's Life and ‘Modern’ approaches to such

Abstract:
Leo Strauss's greatest project was his attempt to resurrect classical political philosophy by reawakening the quarrel between the ancients and the moderns. This essay illuminates Strauss's view of that quarrel by considering a crucial stage in the development of his understanding of the most important differences between ancient and modern political philosophy. Strauss's critique of Hobbes inThe Political Philosophy of Hobbesculminates in a striking comparison of Hobbes's distinctively modern approach to political philosophy with the approach of Plato and Aristotle.

Abstract:
This article revisits what has often been called the “naive presentism” of Voltaire's historical work. It looks at the methodological and philosophical reasons for Voltaire's deliberate focus on modern history as opposed to ancient history, his refusal to “make allowances for time” in judging the past, and his extreme selectiveness in determining the relevance of past events to world history. Voltaire's historical practice is put in the context of the quarrel of the ancients and the moderns, and considered in a tradition of universal history going back to Bossuet and leading up to nineteenth-c

Abstract:
Conhecida, já no século XVII, como querela dos Antigos e dos Modernos, a série de debates entre membros da Academia Francesa opôs, de um lado, aqueles que defendiam a exemplaridade da Antiguidade na produção artística e literária do período e, de outro, os partidários da legitimidade da criatividade dos artistas modernos. Entre os letrados que em pleno reinado de Luís XIV deram ensejo a essa disputa, Charles Perrault se destacou não apenas como porta-voz dos autointitulados Modernos, mas também como o estopim e catalisador do debate. Nesse sentido, este trabalho tem como objetivo apresentar as

Abstract:
This article argues for the importance of Princess E.S. Urusova's four poems published between 1772 and 1777 to scholarly discussions of both classical reception and noble culture. Urusova engages more intensively than any other Russian writer of the period with the European Quarrel of the Ancients and the Moderns, formulating thereby unique responses to major literary and political concerns of the 1770s. In the literary sphere, the Quarrel allows Urusova to conceptualize with exceptional perspicacity the multifaceted cultural environment of the time: contributing to Russia's claim to be the d

Abstract:
AbstractIn the Briefe über die Ästhetische Erziehung des Menschen, the focus of this article, Schiller’s ostensible aim – to complete Kant’s aesthetic theory – is progressively abandoned. The article examines the reasons for this abandonment. On the one hand, Schiller’s original purpose was overtaken by events in France. Schiller found that he could no longer sustain confidence in reason’s capacity to build a durable political republic. On the other hand, the alternative path he favours involves him in the expounding of an anthropology he did not set out to undertake. The Ästhetische Briefe, f
