This Festschrift in honor of Dennis F. Mahoney's sixty-fifth
birthday is somewhat different from the standard Festschrift:
rather than present essays from various authors, this Festschrift
collects twenty-one of Mahoney's most important English-language
publications on German Classicism and Romanticism published over
the past thirty years. Mahoney is the author and editor of many
articles and books in German and English, among them Die
Poetisierung der Natur bei Novalis (1980), Der Roman der Goethezeit
(1988), The Eighteenth Century and Uses of the Past (1992), The
Critical Fortunes of a Romantic Novel: Novalis's "Heinrich von
Ofterdingen" (1994), The End of Enlightenment (2000), Friedrich von
Hardenberg (Novalis) (2001), and Literature of German Romanticism
(2004). Mahoney has taught German language, culture, literature,
and film at the University of Vermont for thirty-five years, and
has received national and international recognition. On campus he
has been a champion of international education, advising students
about studying abroad, setting up an exchange program with the
University of Augsburg, and inviting students and colleagues from
Germany to Vermont. He has received an Excellence in Teaching
Award, an Award for Outstanding Contributions to International
Education, and he was the first American to be named president of
the International Novalis Society. The title of this Festschrift
captures Mahoney's life-long occupation with this rich period of
German cultural, intellectual, and literary life. The essays
display his erudition and expertise on such subjects as the
multifaceted Age of Goethe, including the continuing discussion of
the nature of the Bildungsroman and the influence of the French
Revolution. The essays deal primarily with Goethe, Schiller, and
Novalis, but Gotthold Ephraim Lessing, Georg Forster, Caroline von
Wolzogen, Jean Paul, E.T.A. Hoffmann, Achim von Amim, and others
are discussed as well. These individual essays are representative
of Mahoney's accomplishments as a literary scholar - and a
remarkable professor, colleague, and friend.
