{"product_id":"dante-in-deutschland-an-itinerary-of-romantic-myth-9781684484188","title":"Dante in Deutschland: An Itinerary of Romantic Myth","description":"Around the turn of the nineteenth century, no task seemed more urgent to German Romantics than the creation of a new mythology. It would unite modern poets and grant them common ground, and bring philosophers and the \u003ci\u003eVolk\u003c\/i\u003e closer together. But what would a new mythology look like? Only one model sufficed, according to Friedrich Schlegel: Dante's \u003ci\u003eDivine Comedy\u003c\/i\u003e. Through reading and juxtaposing canonical and obscure texts, \u003ci\u003eDante in Deutschland \u003c\/i\u003eshows how Dante's work shaped the development of German Romanticism; it argues, all the while, that the weight of Dante's influence induced a Romantic preoccupation with authority: Who was authorized to create a mythology? This question--traced across texts by Schelling, Novalis, and Goethe--begets a Neo-Romantic fixation with Dantean authority in the mythic ventures of Gerhart Hauptmann, Rudolf Borchardt, and Stefan George. Only in Thomas Mann's novels, DiMassa asserts, is the Romantics' Dantean project ultimately demythologized.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-15058467\"\u003eDaniel DiMassa\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bucknell University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/12\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 228\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.00w x 0.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781684484188\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1684484189\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-LIT\"\u003eLiterary Criticism\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-LIT020000\"\u003eComparative Literature\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-LIT\"\u003eLiterary Criticism\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-LIT004170\"\u003eEuropean | German\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-PHI\"\u003ePhilosophy\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-PHI001000\"\u003eAesthetics\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDANIEL DiMASSA is an assistant professor of German at Worcester Polytechnic Institute in Worcester, Massachusetts.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bucknell University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44451618226413,"sku":"9781684484188","price":53.93,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_532eac3e-0aff-454a-ada5-aac28a41b832.jpg?v=1700329906","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/es\/products\/dante-in-deutschland-an-itinerary-of-romantic-myth-9781684484188","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
