In all his writings, the poet, translator, essayist and orator, Rudolf Borschardt, stood in opposition to his age. This volume presents details of his relations with leading writers, academics and political figures of the first half of the 20th century.

This study treats a central complex of issues which have hitherto received little attention from Goethe scholars, namely the question of the conception and position of the subject in Johann Wolfgang von Goethe's novels and shorter narrative pieces. In his study the author combines approaches from the history of ideas and poetology in a systematic way and succeeds in demonstrating that the question of the ego, its identity and boundaries is a recurring problem in Goethe's writings, and one that he obviously did not succeed in resolving; at the same time he shows that Goethe's figures, with their internal breaks, already display clear features of the modern subject.

The study examines narrative processes and modes of writing in hitherto neglected early works by Franz Kafka. Close readings of the texts reveal how his writing develops towards a dream-like imaginative narration. This analysis of Kafka's early work reveals for the first time the prerequisites for that literary breakthrough in which Kafka entered the literary scene as a narrator in 1912.

Als prekarer Teil des affirmativen Reichspatriotismus (1870-1880) trieben diffamierte oder gering geachtete Geschichtsromane wie Dahns Kampf um Rom, Fontanes Vor dem Sturm, Freytags Ahnen oder Sacher-Masochs Weiblicher Sultan Geschichtsreflexion und Identitatsbildung entscheidend voran. Wie Meyers Jurg Jenatsch problematisieren sie den zeitgenossischen Umgang mit Geschichte und stehen damit am Beginn der Krise des Historismus. Die vorliegende Dispositivanalyse weist das hochreflexive Ineinander von Affirmation und Subversion nach, zu dem sich die Romane mit Nietzsches Historienschrift, Droysens Geschichtssemiotik, Menzels Abkehr vom Geschichtsgemalde, aber auch mit Denkmaleinweihungen, den Jubelfeiern 1870/71, Verlagsanzeigen, Professorenromanen, Zeitschriftenartikeln und -illustrationen verschranken. Eingehende Interpretation gangiger und abseitiger Text- und Bilddokumente entwerfen zentrale Elemente der Kulturgeschichte des 19. Jahrhunderts vollig neu.

Die Untersuchung geht der Frage nach, wie Normen uber das gegenseitige Verhalten von Frauen und Mannern vermittelt werden. Aus sozialpsychologischen, ritual- und diskurstheoretischen Ansatzen entwickelt sie fur das Medium Drucktext ein Modell, wonach vor allem die Darstellung von Konfliktverlaufen normativ wirkt.Die Arbeit fuhrt vor, dass in protestantischen deutschen Drucktexten des 17. Jahrhunderts die funf Konfliktverlaufsmuster 'Kompliment', 'Disputation', 'Verleumdung', 'Rehabilitation' und 'Bue' fur die Vermittlung von Normen des gegenseitigen Verhaltens der Geschlechter verantwortlich sind. Sie kommen in so unterschiedlichen Gattungen wie Schafergedicht und Landesordnung vor, halten sich nicht an Grenzen inhaltlich definierter Diskurse und werden als normative Muster selbst durch abweichende Variation konstitutiert.

Über 70 Jahre lang ¿ von 1788 bis 1859 ¿ verfasste Alexander von Humboldt zahlreiche Monographien, Hunderte von Aufsätzen und Tausende von Briefen. Erstmals untersucht diese Studie den literargeschichtlichen Kontext dieser schriftstellerischen Karriere. Wie Humboldt das Schreiben erlernte, welchen Vorbildern er nacheiferte, in welchen Gattungen (vom fiktionalen Brief über die didaktische Erzählung bis zum Reisebericht und der kulturhistorischen Abhandlung) er sich übte, welches Publikum er ansprach, welchen Problemen er als Autor in verschiedenen Sprachen und bei Übersetzungen begegnete und wie er schließlich, mit den Ansichten der Natur, den Ideen zu einer Geographie der Pflanzen und vor allem mit dem Kosmos seinen Ruhm als deutscher Nationalautor zu begründen suchte. Bis zuletzt blieb der prominente Kosmopolit den Traditionen der deutschen Aufklärung und Weimarer Klassik verpflichtet. Seine Bücher faszinieren bis heute, weil er versuchte, empirische Naturforschung und idealistische Bildung zu vereinbaren und bei aller Spezialisierung des Wissens die Natur als Ganzes zu fassen. Hinter diesen heroischen Versuchen ¿ so macht das Buch plausibel ¿ steht viel mehr als ein gedanklicher Entwurf, nämlich die unermüdliche literarische Praxis und die professionelle Arbeit eines ¿gelehrten Schriftstellers¿, als der Humboldt sich zeitlebens verstand.

Biographics has only recently started establishing itself as a field of research, and within it this study on biographical anthropology sets new directions by giving a detailed description of the significance of anthropological and moral-didactic theories and interests for the description of strangers' life histories in a chronological traverse of over 100 years of history of the genre.In contrast to traditional locations of biographical writing between art and scholarship, novel and historiography, biography is now reviewed as anthropological case history and didactic example. Foci: biographical stances in the 19th century (Varnhagen, Stifter, Laube, Gutzkow, Droysen, Ranke, Smiles, Gottschall)- psychological and biological models- 'modern biographics' (Wassermann, Zweig, Ludwig)- national biographical texts (Ritter, Molo, Schafer).

The forms of expression of the emotions in medieval literature are subject to different social, communicative, and aesthetic conditions than those obtaining in the modern age. Using exemplars of the sentimental medieval love romance, this study draws out processes of historical change in the conventions governing the expression of emotions.

Die interdisziplinär angelegte Studie wirft einen neuen Blick auf die Kunsttheorie des Weimarer Klassizismus. Hinter dem Klischee "edler Einfalt und stiller Größe" wird dabei eine dynamische Ästhetik erkennbar, für die die künstlerische Darstellung von Pathos, Ausdruck und Bewegung keinesfalls ausgeschlossen, sondern im Gegenteil sogar konstitutiv ist. Die Struktur der auf einer breiten Basis von Bildbeispielen argumentierenden Untersuchung ergibt sich aus den drei für den Neoklassizismus zentralen Diskursen: der Archäologie, der Kunsttheorie sowie der zeitgenössischen Kunstkritik. Herausgearbeitet wird der von den "Weimarischen Kunstfreunden" unternommene Versuch, die noch von Winckelmann und Lessing als übertrieben abgelehnte "Nachahmung des Gewaltsamen" in die Kunstlehre zu reintegrieren, um auf diese Weise den spätestens seit den 1780er Jahren in eine Krise geratenen Klassizismus theoretisch flexibler wie auch ästhetisch attraktiver zu gestalten.
