    'Gymnastik des Geistes': Lessing und die Aufklärung als Lebensform

    No full text
    This essay aims to offer a new interpretation of Lessing's thought, and particularly to reassess his status as a philosopher. In order to do so, it discusses Pierre Hadot's interpretation of ancient philosophy as a mode of life rather than a system of knowledge, and applies it to Lessing. As a result, Lessing's predilection for Socrates, his insistence on research and his willingness to support dialogue at any level, turn out to be crucial aspects of his debt to ancient culture

    Le Metamorfosi di Lucrezia: rilettura del mito nel Settecento: Carlo Goldoni, Samuel Richardson e Gotthold Ephraim Lessing

    No full text
    The virtuous Roman matron Lucretia, raped by Sextus Tarquinius, killed herself in 509 b. C. Her death is considered the cause of the Roman revolt against the Tarquins and the mainspring of the passage from the monarchic to the republican age. It is a myth about private and public dimensions: it tells about woman and revolution. Its themes, permanent features and variations are infinite. The metamorphoses of Lucretia are innumerable: nonetheless, she has always preserved her essence and profound meaning, thus confirming her strength and her being a true myth. Lucretia has crossed the centuries, she has been told, painted, sung by artists from 509 b. C. until today. She reached the Eighteenth Century, Italy, Great Britain and Germany and she met three great authors: Carlo Goldoni, Samuel Richardson and Gotthold Ephraim Lessing. They chose her (or did she choose them?) and decided to write about her story each in their own peculiar manner. Goldoni wrote a “dramma giocoso in musica”,Lugrezia romana in Costantinopoli(1737), Richardson a novel,Clarissa(1747-48) and Lessing a “bürgerliches Trauerspiel” entitledEmilia Galotti(1772). One myth, three authors, three different literary genres: this work would like to investigate and verify the connection among them and the meaning of it. The comparative analysis of the metamorphoses of Lucretia will disclose new concepts of private and public, of woman and revolution, sprung from an old but perpetual reviving myth

    Richardson, Barbauld, and the construction of an early modern fan club

    No full text
    MPhilMuch has been written about the life and long works of the eighteenth century epistolary novelist, Samuel Richardson, but the prospect of his position as the first celebrity novelist – responsible for courting his own fame as well as initiating his own fan club – has largely been ignored. The body of manuscripts housed at the National Art Library in the Victoria and Albert Museum in London provides the modern scholar with evidence of the skeletal beginnings of an early fan club. This thesis aims to show how these manuscripts were turned into a saleable commodity by the publisher and entrepreneur Richard Phillips, while under the guiding hand of another, slightly later, literary celebrity, Anna Laetitia Barbauld. In order to restore Richardson’s reputation amongst a new nineteenth century audience, Barbauld was required to construct her own idea of him as an eighteenth century celebrity author, and in doing so the insecurities of a self-professed, apparently diffident man, are revealed. Barbauld’s capacious, but heavily edited selection of letters is analyzed in this thesis, providing ample evidence that Richardson’s correspondents were more than just eager letter writers. By using Barbauld’s biography of Richardson this thesis aims to show how she manipulates the genre of life writing in her construction of him. This thesis offers an alternative reading of how the Richardson manuscripts are viewed, redefining them as not simply a collection of letters, but as a collective entity, deliberately selected and archived as evidence of an early modern fan club, and its celebrity managing director
