In this innovative new study, Sean Franzel charts the concurrent
emergence of German Romantic pedagogy, the modern research
university, and modern visions of the politically engaged scholar.
At the heart of the pedagogy of Immanuel Kant, Johann Gottlieb
Fichte, K. P. Moritz, A. W. Schlegel, Adam Muller, and others was
the lecture, with its ability to attract listeners and to model an
ideal discursive community, reflecting an era of revolution,
reform, and literary, philosophical, and scientific innovation.
Along with exploring the striking preoccupation of Romantic
thinkers with the lecture and with its reverberations in print,
Franzel argues that accounts of scholarly speech from this period
have had a lasting impact on how the pedagogy, institutions, and
medial manifestations of modern scholarship continue to be
understood.
"Sean Franzel's archaeology illuminates both the bourgeois
public sphere and discourse network 1800 by showing the romantic
lecture to be the key cultural form in a pivotal moment of German
intellectual history, a history long obsessed with the mediation of
oral discourse and written text."--John Durham Peters, author of
"Speaking into the Air
