Book Description
Chargé de mission en Italie, visitant Rome, Sienne, Pise, Naples, confronté à l'ardente piété des foules chrétiennes, Renan éprouve un étrange sentiment de culpabilité. A la lecture de ses notes de voyage, on imagine très bien l'agnostique raisonnable, que la découverte des philosophes allemands a conduit à se détourner de la foi, envahi par la nostalgie des certitudes et des bonheurs de l'enfance, convaincu soudain de l'impertinence de son combat. La foi des humbles, en lui ouvrant le monde des émotions, vient de le ramener au rêve - qu'il n'abandonna jamais - d'un idéal religieux capable de concilier les grandes idées de l'humanité. C'est au cours du Voyage en Norvège que Renan, seul et désespéré dans les mers australes, apprendra l'imminence de la guerre de 1870.

Uranie
Author: Camille Flammarion
Publisher: Createspace Independent Pub
ISBN: 9781478269533
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 216
Book Description
I WAS seventeen. She was called Uranie. Was Uranie, then, a young girl, fair, with blue eyes, innocent, but eager for knowledge? No, she was simply what she has always been, one of the nine muses; she who presided over astronomy, and whose celestial glance animated and directed the spheral choir; she was the heavenly idea hovering above earthly dullness; she had neither the palpitating flesh, nor the heart whose pulsations can be transmitted through space, nor the soft warmth of humanity; but she existed, nevertheless, in a sort of ideal world, superior to humanity, and always pure; and yet she was human enough in name and form to produce in the soul of a youth a vivid and profound impression; to awaken in that soul an undefined and undefinable sentiment of admiration: almost of love.

The Life of August Wilhelm Schlegel, Cosmopolitan of Art and Poetry
Author: Roger Paulin
Publisher: Open Book Publishers
ISBN: 1909254959
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 680
Book Description
This is the first full-scale biography, in any language, of a towering figure in German and European Romanticism: August Wilhelm Schlegel whose life, 1767 to 1845, coincided with its inexorable rise. As poet, translator, critic and oriental scholar, Schlegel's extraordinarily diverse interests and writings left a vast intellectual legacy, making him a foundational figure in several branches of knowledge. He was one of the last thinkers in Europe able to practise as well as to theorise, and to attempt to comprehend the nature of culture without being forced to be a narrow specialist. With his brother Friedrich, for example, Schlegel edited the avant-garde Romantic periodical Athenaeum; and he produced with his wife Caroline a translation of Shakespeare, the first metrical version into any foreign language. Schlegel's Lectures on Dramatic Art and Literature were a defining force for Coleridge and for the French Romantics. But his interests extended to French, Italian, Spanish and Portuguese literature, as well to the Greek and Latin classics, and to Sanskrit. August Wilhelm Schlegel is the first attempt to engage with this totality, to combine an account of Schlegel’s life and times with a critical evaluation of his work and its influence. Through the study of one man's rich life, incorporating the most recent scholarship, theoretical approaches, and archival resources, while remaining easily accessible to all readers, Paulin has recovered the intellectual climate of Romanticism in Germany and traced its development into a still-potent international movement. The extraordinarily wide scope and variety of Schlegel's activities have hitherto acted as a barrier to literary scholars, even in Germany. In Roger Paulin, whose career has given him the knowledge and the experience to grapple with such an ambitious project, Schlegel has at last found a worthy exponent.

The European Landscape Convention
Author: Michael Jones
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9048199328
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 327
Book Description
This important and insightful book provides, for the first time, a broad presentation of ongoing research into public participation in landscape conservation, management and planning, following the 2000 European Landscape Convention which came into force in 2004. The book examines both the theory of participation and what lessons can be learnt from specific European examples. It explores in what manner and to what extent the provisions for participation in the European Landscape Convention have been followed up and implemented. It also presents and compares different experiences of participation in selected countries from northern, southern, eastern and western Europe, and provides a critical examination of public participation in practice. However, while the book’s focus is necessarily on Europe, many of the conclusions drawn are of global relevance. The book provides a valuable reference for researchers and advanced students in landscape policies and management, as well as for professionals and others interested in land-use planning and environmental management.
