Where did it come from and where did it go? Why do we have to ask these questions? Because art historians seem largely satisfied with their answers and most scholars of German literature are not satisfied, yet have stopped asking.This book discerns in the Baroque an aesthetic phenomenon that crosses both media and national boundaries in its celebration of excess and its disintegration of system, unity, and identity. The compositional principles and theoretical implications of the Baroque, as it first arose in Italian art, find expression in German poetics, drama, poetry, and narrative - expression accessible only through resolute close reading. Readings of Bernini, Borromini, Vela?zquez, Rubens, Fracanzano, and de Hooch precipitate readings of Opitz, Gryphius, Fleming, Zesen, Hoffmannswaldau, and Grimmelshausen, demonstrating that seventeenth-century German literature both is Baroque and confirms what the Baroque is. 606 $aArchitektur 606 $aSkulptur 606 $aMalerei 606 $aPoetik 606 $aLyrik 606 $aDrama 606 $aRoman 606 $aSystem 606 $aA?sthetik 606 $ainterdisziplina?r 606 $aArchitecture 606 $aSculpture 606 $aPainting 606 $aPoetics 606 $aPoetry 606 $aNovel 606 $aAesthetics 606 $aInterdisciplinary 615 4$aArchitektur 615 4$aSkulptur 615 4$aMalerei 615 4$aPoetik 615 4$aLyrik 615 4$aDrama 615 4$aRoman 615 4$aSystem 615 4$aA?sthetik 615 4$ainterdisziplina?r 615 4$aArchitecture 615 4$aSculpture 615 4$aPainting 615 4$aPoetics 615 4$aPoetry 615 4$aNovel 615 4$aAesthetics 615 4$aInterdisciplinary 676 $a700.943 700 $aBurgard$b Peter J$4aut$01538841 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910793711703321 996 $aBaroque$93789253 997 $aUNINA
