The book ranges widely in its compass of thought and intellectual discourse, dealing incisively with themes including the philosophical implications of literature and the relationship between religion, science and politics. The result is an accomplished reflection on German thought, but also on its rebirth, as Nisbet argues for the relevance of these Enlightenment thinkers for the readers of today. The first half of this collection focuses predominantly on eighteenth-century thought, where names like Lessing, Goethe and Herder, but also Locke and Voltaire, feature. The second has a wider chronological scope, discussing authors such as Winckelmann and Schiller, while branching out from discussions of religion, philosophy and literature to explore the sciences. Issues of biology, early environmentalism, and natural history also form part of this volume. The collection concludes with an examination of changing atitudes towards art in the atfermath of the ‘Age of Goethe.’ The essays in this volume are brought together in this collection to present Nisbet’s widely-acclaimed perspectives on this fascinating period of German thought. It will be of interest to scholars and students of the intellectual life of Europe during the Enlightenment, while its engaging and lucid style will also appeal to the general reader.Literature German Dutch ScandinaviancultureEuropelanguageGermanyEnlightenmentliteratureAge of Goetheeighteenth-centuryenvironmentalismGerman thoughtnatural historynineteenth-centuryLiterature German Dutch ScandinaviancultureEuropelanguageGermanyEnlightenmentliteratureAge of Goetheeighteenth-centuryenvironmentalismGerman thoughtnatural historynineteenth-centuryNisbet Hugh Barr184499Nisbet Hugh Barr1354951FR-FrMaCLEBOOK9910498503403321On the Literature and Thought of the German Classical Era3358859UNINA02572nam 2200553 450 991082490080332120230721010927.00-7391-2966-X1-4616-3288-9(CKB)2550000001115886(EBL)1380479(OCoLC)858229838(SSID)ssj0000983718(PQKBManifestationID)12431391(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000983718(PQKBWorkID)11010460(PQKB)11121327(MiAaPQ)EBC1380479(Au-PeEL)EBL1380479(CaPaEBR)ebr10915999(CaONFJC)MIL516221(EXLCZ)99255000000111588620140908h20092009 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrA theory of feelings /Agnes HellerSecond edition.Lanham, Maryland ;Plymouth, England :Lexington Books,2009.©20091 online resource (231 p.)Description based upon print version of record.0-7391-2967-8 1-299-84970-9 Title Page; Copyright Page; Table of Contents; Acknowledgments; Introduction to the Second Edition; Part I.
