But as Roy Morris, Jr., reveals in this sparkling narrative, Wilde was, for the first time in his life, underselling himself. A chronicle of the sensation that was Wilde's eleven-month speaking tour of America, Declaring His Genius offers an indelible portrait of both Oscar Wilde and the Gilded Age. Wilde covered 15,000 miles, delivered 140 lectures, and met everyone who was anyone. Dressed in satin knee britches and black silk stockings, the long-haired apostle of the British Aesthetic Movement alternately shocked, entertained, and enlightened a spellbound nation. Harvard students attending one of his lectures sported Wildean costume, clutching sunflowers and affecting world-weary poses. Denver prostitutes enticed customers by crying: "We know what makes a cat wild, but what makes Oscar Wilde?" Whitman hoisted a glass to his health, while Ambrose Bierce denounced him as a fraud. Wilde helped alter the way post-Civil War Americans-still reeling from the most destructive conflict in their history-understood themselves. In an era that saw rapid technological changes, social upheaval, and an ever-widening gap between rich and poor, he delivered a powerful anti-materialistic message about art and the need for beauty. Yet Wilde too was changed by his tour. Having conquered America, a savvier, more mature writer was ready to take on the rest of the world. Neither Wilde nor America would ever be the same. 606 $aBIOGRAPHY & AUTOBIOGRAPHY / Literary$2bisacsh 608 $aElectronic books. 615 7$aBIOGRAPHY & AUTOBIOGRAPHY / Literary. 676 $a828/.809 700 $aMorris$b Roy$cJr.$01048465 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910463357703321 996 $aDeclaring his genius$92476769 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03647oam 2201009 c 450 001 9910970617203321 005 20260302090207.0 010 $a3-657-70399-3 024 7 $a10.30965/9783657703999 035 $a(CKB)4920000000126224 035 $a(nllekb)BRILL9783657703999 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC6515187 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL6515187 035 $a(OCoLC)1243549005 035 $a(Brill | Scho?ningh)9783657703999 035 $a(Brill | Schöningh)9783657703999 035 $a(EXLCZ)994920000000126224 100 $a20260302d2019 uy 0 101 0 $ager 135 $aurun| uuuua 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $2rdacarrier 200 10$aSubjektivität zwischen Zerfall, Willensfreiheit und Religion$eUntersuchungen zur Verhältnisbestimmung von Einheit und Mannigfaltigkeit in der literarischen Romantik$fMichael Schwingenschlögl 205 $a1st ed. 210 $aPaderborn$cBrill | Schöningh$d2019 215 $a1 online resource 300 $aRevised thesis (doctoral)--Ludwig-Maximilians-Universita?t 2017/18. 311 08$a3-506-70399-4 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references (pages 792-815) and index. 327 $aFront Matter -- Copyright page -- Vorbemerkung -- Einleitung -- Fru?hromantik -- Die ?Hochromantik? -- Die Spa?tromantik -- Abschließende U?berlegungen -- Back Matter -- Literaturverzeichnis -- Ausfu?hrliches Inhaltsverzeichnis -- Personenregister. 330 $aEinheit der Romantik? Was die Ganzheitlichkeit der romantischen Literatur im Widerspiel von Ich und Welt ausmacht ? Einsichten in eine zentrale Problematik der Moderne.Die Studie erkundet die literarische Romantik als einheitliches Phänomen und differenziert dabei die romantische Dichtung von sogenannten Romantischen Philosophien und Spezialdisziplinen, setzt aber zugleich den Komplex der Problemlagen um 1800 in Beziehung zur metaphysisch-erkenntnistheoretischen Entwicklung des 18. Jahrhunderts. Zentral ist hierbei das von der Romantik aus der Aufklärung übernommene Verständnis der Einheit in der Mannigfaltigkeit. 606 $aFichte 606 $aHölderlin 606 $aKant 606 $aLiteratur 606 $aPhilosophie 606 $aRomantik 606 $aSchlegel 606 $aSubjektivität 606 $aIdealismus 606 $aGoethezeit 606 $a1800 606 $aPoetologie 606 $aEpochenwandel 606 $aNeue Mythologie 606 $aIntegration 606 $aGanzes 606 $aEnlightenment 606 $aGerman Idealism 606 $aepochal change 606 $apoetology 606 $aNew Mythology 606 $aintegration 606 $awhole 615 4$aFichte 615 4$aHölderlin 615 4$aKant 615 4$aLiteratur 615 4$aPhilosophie 615 4$aRomantik 615 4$aSchlegel 615 4$aSubjektivität 615 4$aIdealismus 615 4$aGoethezeit 615 4$a1800 615 4$aPoetologie 615 4$aEpochenwandel 615 4$aNeue Mythologie 615 4$aIntegration 615 4$aGanzes 615 4$aEnlightenment 615 4$aGerman Idealism 615 4$aepochal change 615 4$apoetology 615 4$aNew Mythology 615 4$aintegration 615 4$awhole 676 $a830.9 700 $aSchwingenschlögl$b Michael$4aut$00 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910970617203321 996 $aSubjektivita?t zwischen Zerfall, Willensfreiheit und Religion$94036720 997 $aUNINA
