Hardly anything has been more influential in forming the modern era s definition of itself than its position in relation to the pre-modern . That is why medieval reception is not just a secondary effect of the echo of medieval texts or topics but itself constitutes a central area of discourse on the formation of cultural identity by individuals and cultural systems. In a historical journey from humanism up to the present and from Jorg Wickram to Dan Brown, this volume considers basic questions on the forms and functions of medieval reception the cultures of reception between canon and pop culture."
Georg Philipp Harsdorffer? lawyer, scholar and mathematician, patrician, diplomat and judge ? has in recent decades become one of the most studied Baroque authors. His work had a distinct international orientation and encompassed nearly all areas of 17th century knowledge. It thus became the fulcrum for the European literary relationships and discourse of his age. The book documents this from the humanistic prerequisites to the ?last things of religion."
Das "Kollektivwesen Mensch" hat die literarische Imagination und das intellektuelle Verantwortungsbewusstsein Alfred Doeblins bis an die Grenzen der Sprache herausgefordert. Der Schriftstellerarzt verfolgte das Phanomen der Masse im Leben der Grossstadte, in den Weltkriegen und in globalen Migrationsbewegungen. Es motiviert die exuberanten Textmassen seiner Romane ebenso wie seine experimentierfreudigen Feuilletons, Radio- und Filmtexte, die auf ein Massenpublikum hin angelegt sind. Die "richtige Einstellung auf die Masse" wurde ihm zu Problem und Aufgabe neuer literarischer Reprasentationsformen und einer medialen Massenbildung. Der Band dokumentiert das 18. Internationale Alfred-Doeblin-Kolloquium, das 2011 zum Thema "Massen und Medien bei Alfred Doeblin" in Berlin tagte und auch fur den Massendiskurs einschlagige Autoren wie Ernst Toller und Hans Fallada berucksichtigte.
