At no other time has the role of art been subjected to such intense
reflection as in the period of radical upheaval around 1800.
Following on from the French Revolution, aesthetics became an
important field of reference for political, social and
philosophical debates. In this context, Friedrich Schiller plays an
important role. This volume attempts to derive central themes in
Schiller s classic aesthetics from his early articles on
philosophy, anthropology and poetry."
The 'arch-humanist' Konrad Celtis (1459-1508) is not only a key
figure in the history of humanism north of the Alps but can
legitimately claim to be one of the originators of modern-age
German literature. His love elegies (AAmoresA) were the first
significant cycle of neo-Latin literature in Germany. The aim of
the study is to cast light on Celtis' project for German literature
in Latin by way of an extensive examination of its foundations in
the history of ideas and literature. The monograph is the first of
its kind to systematically cover all the major texts and pictorial
documents from the early AArs versificandiA to the AAmoresA and to
take a discourse-oriented approach to them.
