The Long Quarrel: Past and Present in the Eighteenth Century
examines how the intellectual clashes emerging from the Quarrel of
the Ancients and the Moderns continued to reverberate until the end
of the eighteenth century. This extended Quarrel was not just about
the value of ancient and modern, but about historical thought in a
broader sense. The tension between ancient and modern expanded into
a more general tension between past and present, which were no
longer seen as essentially similar, but as different in nature.
Thus, a new kind of historical consciousness came into being in the
Long Quarrel of the eighteenth century, which also gave rise to new
ideas about knowledge, art, literature and politics. Contributors
are: Jacques Bos, Anna Cullhed, Hakon Evju, Vera Fasshauer, Andrew
Jainchill, Anton M. Matytsin, Iain McDaniel, Larry F. Norman, David
D. Reitsam, Jan Rotmans, Friederike Vosskamp, and Christine Zabel.
