Gottsched und Lessing: Zwei Größen der Literaturkritik im 18. Jahrhundert (German Edition)

---

Abhandlung von der Erhaltung des Getraides, und besonders des Weizens. Ebert ; Goldsmith Effectively the blueprint for a fully-fledged communist society, this early and extreme socialist utopia is an extension of some of the ideas first circulated in the same author's Naufrage des Isles Flottantes: No birth or death certificates for Morelly survive, and there is no record of anyone in the eighteenth century ever mentioning that they met him.

It has been suggested that "Morelly" may actually have been either Toussaint, or even perhaps Diderot to whom the work has quite often been attributed. Whoever "Morelly" may have been, his work was better known in later centuries than in his own. The rediscovery of Morelly's "code" in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries led to his being represented as a significant forerunner of socialism. Its modern significance lies more in its effect on later political thinkers, many openly acknowledging their debt to the text: Babeuf referred to it with respect, and many nineteenth century writers admitted its influence, including Fourier, Cabet, Proudhon, Louis Blanc, Engels and Marx, who quoted Morelly on the dangers of private ownership.

The Code de la Nature is an uncompromising text. Working from the position that Avarice is the root of all evil, Morelly argues for the absolute abolition of private property, complete state control of production and consumption, and an uncompromising and mathematical regimentation of society based on enumerations of the fundamental unit of ten.

For Morelly and his identity, see: Wagner, "Etat actuel de nos connaissances sur Morelly", in Revue: Hordern House Rare Books ]. Raccolta delle Monete d? In Modena, per gli Eredi di Bartolomeo Soliani, Libreria Bongiorno Paolo ]. Second edition, 2 vols. I with a single worm hole and slight browning repaired with archival paper , blank foremargins of vol. II chipped and browned first and last pages or so with repairs , contemporary calf, expertly rebacked, six raised bands with a gilt fillet above and below each band, red and green morocco labels lettered in gilt.

Universally recognised as one of the most influential books in the history of the English language. The second edition is far more uncommon than the first edition as the print run was only sets as opposed to 2, for the first. This figure is therefore the maximum number possible of complete copies, making this the smallest and probably the scarcest of the folio editions.

Old stains, chipped around the edges. Old repairs to upper corner tears and to tear caused by wax seal. In good condition overall. An evocative letter from the Rev. William Smith, written to the noted emissary to the Pennsylvania Indian tribes, Conrad Weiser, discussing their efforts to build a school for German emigrants in Pennsylvania. Smith wrote this letter shortly after he was named the first Provost of the College of Philadelphia, which eventually became the University of Pennsylvania. This letter, however, refers to Smith and Weiser's efforts in establishing and raising funds for a different educational enterprise, the Society for Promoting Religious Knowledge and the English Language Among the German Emigrants in Pennsylvania.

Just two months earlier, in March, , Weiser set up such a school at Tulpehocken. In this letter, William Smith instructs Conrad Weiser to go ahead and pay the master of the new school, and he also asks Weiser and some of his wealthy associates to give financial assistance to the school - in essence sending an early fundraising letter. Smith writes that the school has received a large number of applications and does not want to turn away any students.

Smith also alludes to possible competition he feels from other parochial schools among the German settlers, again signaling his desire to see the school grow and succeed. You may advance the master a small sum without any danger. We shall settle his salary at our first meeting which will be soon; but as there are so many applications for Schools, we hope the richer sort among you will contribute something, as the people have done in other places.

I think you should lose no time in the affair of the Schoolhouse. Spanenberg's answer, nor anything his people can do, is in the least to the purpose. The ground cannot be theirs exclusively. In he was named Provost of the newly-reorganized College of Philadelphia. A supporter of the Penn's proprietary government, Smith quickly found himself at odds with Franklin. Smith was frequently embroiled in American politics, all the way to the American Revolution, during which his ambivalent views on American independence alienated him.

Conrad Weiser was born in Germany and came to New York with his family as a boy. Weiser formed good relations with many of the New York Indian leaders, and learned their languages. He is best remembered for his work in negotiating treaties with Indian tribes in Pennsylvania, where he moved his family in Weiser was briefly a member of the Ephrata Cloister, and at other times was a Lutheran, a Baptist, and a member of the Reformed Church. He was also a trustee of the board to educate German youths in Pennsylvania in the early Spanenberg" to which Smith refers in the letter was likely the German theologian August Gottlieb Spangenberg, who at the time was supervising Moravian churches in Pennsylvania.

A wonderful letter from William Smith to Conrad Weiser, making plans for the growth of a school for German emigrants in Pennsylvania, and seeing funds and assistance in building the school.

Eighteenth-century bookplate of Charles Smith with his signature dated on title of each volume. Charles Rollin January 30, December 14, was a French historian and educationist.

He was born at Paris. In he was rector of the University of Paris, rendering great service among other things by reviving the study of Greek. Unfortunately his religious opinions deprived him of his appointments and disqualified him for the rectorship, to which in he had been re-elected. Shortly before his death he protested publicly against the acceptance of the bull Unigenitus.

Rollin's literary work dates chiefly from the later years of his life, when he had been forbidden to teach. His once famous Ancient History Paris, , and the less generally read Roman History, which followed it, were avowed compilations, uncritical and somewhat inaccurate. But they instructed and interested generation after generation almost to the present day.

It contains a summary of what was even then a reformed and innovative system of education, advocating a more frequent and extensive use of the vulgar tongue, and discarding the medieval traditions that had lingered in France.

The earliest programmatic use of the term known to us is Alpers A Journal of Visual and Verbal Interaction, founded in Much more could be said by way of introduction. After all, one of the reasons Laocoon has proved so stimulating over the last quarter- millennium lies is in its varied critical texture—its shifting argumentative modes, diverse materials, and oscillation between ancient and modern frames of reference.

Hence they are to be regarded more as unordered notes for a book than as a book itself. We Germans suffer from no lack of systematic books. Our objective has been to rally behind—rather than reconcile—such divergent diachronic, conceptual, and historicizing approaches: In his chapter here, though, Wellbery revises his earlier readings: The project of Laocoon can in part be understood as a historicist one, Squire demonstrates: Luca Giuliani likewise approaches Laocoon from the perspective of contemporary classical scholarship.

At the same time, Giuliani introduces into the mix what we now know to be our best source for Archaic and Classical Greek Malerei: In his comments on an early draft of Laocoon, Mendelssohn reminded Lessing that poetry—due to the arbitrariness of its signs—could also succeed in expressing objects that coexist with one another rather than only consecutive actions in time.

According to Lessing, who bases his arguments on the analysis of ancient case studies, the particular purpose of poetry must be the creation of a vivid illusion that approximates the immediacy of pictorial representation. Lifschitz sets out to explore the seeming paradox of this position. Whereas Beiser and Lifschitz examine Laocoon as a key contribution to eighteenth-century semiotics, Daniel Fulda evaluates the text against the backdrop of contemporary historiography.

How aware of these poles is the author in writing his own text that unfolds in time? What role does the actual medium of a representation play in Laocoon? Or does Laocoon assume a more dynamic mode of engagement between material form and subject- ive imagination? Gaiger explores how different critics have differently approached these questions with particular reference to the work of Anthony Savile, Arthur Danto, and David Wellbery. For Kottman, Lessing talks of the differences between visual and verbal media primarily only to demonstrate their shared aesthetic effects.

In his closing epilogue, returning full-circle to the themes explored in W. So much for the parts. But what of the volume as a whole? We do not claim to have addressed every aspect of Laocoon; indeed, our combined argument is that so wide-ranging an essay must resist any such closure. Yet it is the very breadth of responses, drawn from across the humanities, that our book sets out to champion. From Locke to Saussure: Essays on the Study of Language and Intellectual History.
