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.
