New articles on topics spanning the Age of Goethe, with a special
section of fresh views of Goethe's Faust. The Goethe Yearbook is a
publication of the Goethe Society of North America, publishing
original English-language contributions to the understanding of
Goethe and other authors of the Goethezeit, while also
welcomingcontributions from scholars around the world. Goethe
Yearbook 17 covers the full range of the era, from Karl Guthke's
essay on the early Lessing to Peter Hoeyng's on Grillparzer.
Notable is a special section, co-editedby Clark Muenzer and Karin
Schutjer, that samples some of the exciting new work presented at
the Goethe Society conference in November 2008: 200 years after the
publication of Faust I, eight essays offer fresh views of this epic
masterpiece, often through novel and surprising connections.
Authors link for example Faust's final ascension and the
circulation of weather, verse forms in the drama and the
performance of national identity, the fate of Gretchen and the
occult politics of Francis Bacon. Other papers explore
epistemological structures and taxonomies at work in Goethe's
prose, essays, and scientific writings. Contributors: Frederick
Amrine, Johannes Anderegg, Matthew Bell, Benjamin Bennett, Gerrit
Bruning, Christian Clement, Pamela Currie, Ulrich Gaier, Karl
Guthke, Stefan Hajduk, Peter Hoeyng, Clark Muenzer, Andrew Piper,
Herb Rowland, Heather Sullivan, Chad Wellmon, Ellwood Wiggins,
Markus Wilczek. Daniel Purdy is Associate Professor of German at
Pennsylvania State University. Book review editor Catriona MacLeod
is Associate Professor of German at the University of Pennsylvania.
