Das Bild der Antike in der Deutschen Romantik
Author(s): Helene M. Kastinger RileyDie vorliegende Arbeit sollte beitragen an ein besseres Verständnis der romantischen Literatur im zeitgenössischen Kontext. Es wird untersucht wie die die Klassik und die Romantik sich mit einander verhalten haben anhand von Einzelanalysen. Auf tradiotionelle Grenzen wie Früh-, Hoch- oder Spätromantik wird verzichtet, sowie auch auf die Idee daß in romantische Werke nur aesthetische Tendezen zum Ausdruck kamen; sondern daß auch politisch operative und sozialpolitische funktionale Tendenzen wichtig waren.

Reinmars Women
Author(s): William E. JacksonReinmar der Alte, the twelfth-century poet also known as Reinmar von Hagenau, wrote a considerable number of ‘Frauenlieder’ and ‘Frauenstrophen’, i.e. poems and stanzas in which the speaker is a woman. However, there has never been a satisfactory scholarly treatment of these poems. Throughout the history of scholarship dealing with his works, the evaluation has been based mainly on a characterization of his personality. This volume tries to fill this gap by presenting and analysing the Woman’s Song of Reinmar.

Goethe's Search for the Muse
Author(s): David B. RichardsThat Goethe was also a translator is a well-kept secret. However, in this study the main focus lies on these translations. Especially on his five longest and most important ones, such as Diderot’s Le Neveu de Rameau and Cellini’s Vita.Not only will the translations be discussed but – and maybe even more importantly – also will this study try to give an answer to the motivation of Goethe. Why did he devote so much time to these translations? This volume offers a complete new perspective on Goethe and his works.

Friedrich Nicolais Satiren
Author(s): Peter MollenhauerSatiren wurden oft als ästhetische Kunstübung gesehen, aber der Satiriker Friedrich Nicolai (1733–1811) hatte die Frage nach dem Wahren so eindringlich wie auch ein Kritiker gestellt. Damit bekam die Satire eine neue Deutung und hat diese die Kulturgeschichte des 18. Jahrhunderts wesentlich beeinflusst.
Die vorliegende Studie dokumentiert Friedrich Nicolais Satiren, insofern diese neben der Kritik als wesensbestimmende Waffe des Aufklärers Nicolai anzusehen waren.
