Original Hardcover. Condition: Sehr gut. XIII; 259 p. Very good and clean. - Sehr gut und sauber. - Feeling History is a study of apostrophe (i.e., the rhetorical device in which the narrator talks directly to his characters) in Lucan's Bellum Civile. Through the narrators direct addresses, irony, and grotesque imagery, Lucan ap…pears not as a nihilist, but as a character deeply concerned about ethics. The purpose of this book is to demonstrate how Lucans style represents a criticism of the Roman approach to history, epic, ethics, and aesthetics. The books chief interest lies in the ethical and moral stance that the poet-narrator takes toward his characters and his audience. To this end, Francesca D Alessandro Behr studies the ways in which the narrator communicates ethical and moral judgments. Lucans retelling of this central historical epic triggers in the mind of the reader questions about the validity of the Roman imperial project as a whole. -- An analysis of selected apostrophes from the Bellum Civile allows us to confront issues that are behind Lucans disquieting imagery: how can we square the poets Stoic perspectives with his poetically conveyed emotional urgency? Lucans approach seems inspired by Aristotle, especially his Poetics, as much as by Stoic philosophy. In Lucans aesthetic project, participation and alienation work as phases through which the narrator leads the reader to a desired understanding of his work of art. At the same time, the reader is confronted with the ends and limits of the aesthetic enterprise in general. -- Lucans long-acknowledged political engagement must therefore be connected to his philosophical and aesthetic stance. In the same way that Lucan is unable to break free from the Virgilian model, neither can he develop a defense of morality outside of the Stoic mold. His philosophy is not a crystal ball to read the future or a numbing drug imposing acceptance. The philosophical vision that Lucan finds intellectually and aesthetically compelling does not insulate his* characters (and readers) from suffering, nor does it excuse them from wrongdoing. Rather, it obligates them to confront the responsibilities and limits of acting morally in a chaotic world. -- List of Abbreviations Acknowledgments Introduction -- Lucans Apostrophes as a Rejoinder to Virgils Apostrophes in the Aeneid -- Addressing Negative Characters: The Didactic Nature of Apostrophe in the Bellum Civile -- Addressing Pompey: Lucans Mimesis as Cognitively Useful Poetry and Apostrophe as a Stoic Trope -- Addressing the Emotions: Lucans Narrator and the Character Cato in the Bellum Civile -- Conclusion Powerful Voices -- Appendix Stoic Inhumanity? A Philosophical Appraisal of Practical Pursuits and the Passions -- Notes -- Bibliography -- Index Locorum -- General Index. ISBN 9780814210437 Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 450.

Condition: Hervorragend. Zustand: Hervorragend | Seiten: 296 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | Arms and the Woman: Classical Tradition and Women Writers in the Venetian Renaissance by Francesca D'Alessandro Behr focuses on the classical reception in the works of female authors active in Venice during the Early Modern Ag…e. Even in this relatively liberal city, women had restricted access to education and were subject to deep-seated cultural prejudices, but those who read and wrote were able, in part, to overcome those limitations. In this study, Behr explores the work of Moderata Fonte and Lucrezia Marinella and demonstrates how they used knowledge of texts by Virgil, Ovid, and Aristotle to systematically reanalyze the biased patterns apparent both in the romance epic genre and contemporary society. Whereas these classical texts were normally used to bolster the belief in female inferiority and the status quo, Fonte and Marinella used them to envision societies structured according to new, egalitarian ethics. Reflecting on the humanist representation of virtue, Fonte and Marinella insisted on the importance of peace, mercy, and education for women. These authors took up the theme of the equality of genders and participated in the Renaissance querelle des femmes, promoting women's capabilities and nature.
