Je schneller Moden und Methoden verschleissen, desto dringender wird der wissenschaftsgeschichtliche Orientierungsbedarf. Die Wissenschaftsgeschichte der Germanistik in Portrats legt eine nuchterne und kritische, aktuelle und anschauliche Geschichte des Fachs vor, samt seiner problematischen Vergangenkeit. Das Buch enthalt siebenundzwanzig Portrats der bedeutendsten Fachvertreter(innen) der Germanistik von den Anfangen bis 1945. Die wichtigsten theoretischen, politischen, institutionellen und interdisziplinaren Entwicklungen aus der Geschichte der Geisteswissenschaften sind berucksichtigt. Die Wissenschaftsgeschichte der Germanistik in Portrats dient der zuverlassigen Information uber die Fachgeschichte - und sie kann das allgemeine und fachliche Problembewusstsein von Student(inn)en der Germanistik und anderer Philologien historisch und systematisch vertiefen und so zur besseren Orientierung beitragen.

Literary scholars and poets are like intimate strangers. They owe their closeness to literature and their alienation to their different relationship to productivity. This book examines Goethe, Friedrich Schlegel, Lonnrot, Hofmannstahl, and Szondi, among others. It analyzes the reasons for this alienated closeness and describes a tradition that has shaped the relationship between poetic productivity and philological understanding."

Proceedings of the Brandeis conference on Jewish Germanists who fled Nazi Germany and their impact on Anglo-American German studies. Among the Jewish academics and intellectuals expelled from Germany and Austria during the Nazi era were many specialists in German literature. Strangely, their impact on the practice of Germanistik in the United States, England, and Canada has been given little attention. Who were they? Did their vision of German literature and culture differ significantly from that of those who remained in their former homeland? What problems did they face in theAmerican and British academic settings? Above all, how did they help shape German studies in the postwar era? This unique and important symposium, which convened at Brandeis University under the auspices of its Center for Germanand European Studies, addresses these and many other questions. Among its distinguished participants--who numbered over thirty in all--are Peter Demetz (Yale, emeritus), Gesa Dane (Goettingen), Amir Eshel (Stanford), Willi Goetschel (Toronto), Barbara Hahn (Princeton), Susanne Klingenstein (MIT), Christoph Koenig (Deutsches Literaturarchiv, Marbach), Ritchie Robertson (Oxford), Egon Schwarz (Washington University St. Louis, emeritus), Hinrich Seeba (UC Berkeley), Walter Sokel (University of Virginia, emeritus), Frank Trommler (University of Pennsylvania), and many more. The volume includes not only the (revised) essays of the participants but also their prepared responses, transcripts of the panel discussion, and dialogue of the participants with members of the audience. Stephen D. Dowden is professor of German at Brandeis University; Meike G. Werner is assistant professor of German at Vanderbilt University.

New essays examining Goethe's relationship to the Jews, and the contribution of Jewish scholars to the fame of the greatest German writer. The success of Daniel Goldhagen's Hitler's Willing Executioners(1997) and the heated debates that followed its publication exposed once again Germany's long tradition of anti-Semitism as a major cause of the Holocaust. Goldhagen, like many before him, drew a direct and irresistible line from Luther's pamphlets against the Jews to Hitler's attempted annihilation of European Jewry. This collection of new essays examines the thesis of a universal anti-Semitism in Germany by focussing on its greatest author, Goethe, and seeing to what extent some scholars are justified in accusing him of anti-Semitism. It places the reception of Goethe's works in a broader historical context: his relationship to Judaism and the Jews; the reception of his works by the Jewish elite in Germany, the reception of the 'Goethe cult' by Jewish scholars; and the Jewish contribution to Goethe scholarship. The last section of the volume treats the Jewish contribution to Goethe's fame and to Goethe philology since the 19th century, and the exodus of many Jewish authors and scholars after 1933, when they took their beloved Goethe into exile. When a few of them returned to Germany after 1945, it was to a country that had lost Goethe's most devoted audience, the German Jews. KLAUS L. BERGHAHN and JOST HERMAND are professors of German at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.

Weischenberg beschrieb Sportjournalisten 1976 als Auenseiter der Redaktion." Das Ansehen und Selbstbewusstsein der Zunft hat sich inzwischen zwar deutlich verbessert, dennoch werden Sportreporter in der Szene teilweise immer noch belchelt. Einem Medium wie der SportWoche geht es da nicht anders. Ziel dieser Arbeit ist es herauszuarbeiten, dass eine Sportwochenzeitschrift ihre eigene, spezifische Qualitt besitzt. Dazu werden der Begriff Qualitt und Dimensionen von Qualittssicherung ausfhrlich behandelt, sowie die Besonderheiten von Sportjournalismus aufgezeigt. Eine quantitave Befragung von 653 SportWoche-Lesern und dem SportWoche-Redaktionsteam zeigt, welche Qualittskriterien fr Sportjournalisten und Rezipienten im Vordergrund stehen. Sie veranschaulicht, was fr Leser und Reporter einen guten Sportjournalisten auszeichnet und welche Ansprche an ein Medium wie die SportWoche gestellt werden. Eine wissenschaftliche Analyse, die mit Vorurteilen aufrumt und kritisch Strken und Schwchen einer Berufssparte beleuchtet.
