Sommario/riassunto |
|
Godwinian Moments is the first ever book collection on the work of William Godwin, the radical British philosopher, novelist, and |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
pamphleteer who contributed extensively to the political and cultural shifts of 1783 to 1834. These essays reveal Godwin as a manyfaceted thinker, pursuing progressive change through various genres and discursive contexts, while confronting moments of tension and contradiction in his views.Leading scholars of British Romanticism examine his writings both well-known, such as Caleb Williams and Political Justice, and neglected, including The Inquirer, Mandeville, and his dramas. Along with sections on his engagements with radicalism and with history, this collection provides a fascinating look at his relations with philanthropist Thomas Wedgwood and Jewish radical John King. Godwinian Moments is a valuable resource for understanding the intellectual and societal shifts of the long nineteenth-century. |

Albrecht Dürer est le troisième enfant d'Albrecht Dürer l'Ancien, orfèvre originaire de Hongrie et arrivé à Nüremberg en 1455. En 1486, il entre dans l'atelier de Michael Wolgemut et en devient l'apprenti. Après avoir |

On lui fait alors la commande d'un retable pour l'autel de Notre-Dame, dans l'église nationale de la colonie allemande à San Bartolommeo. En 1512, il reçoit une pension de l'empereur Maximilien de Habsbourg avec titres de |
