Walter Pater‘ın Marius the Epicurean Romanında Estetizm ve Kimlik Oluşumu
No full textThe novel of formation, or the Bildungsroman, is among the most popular types of fiction in Victorian England, especially with realists. Opposed to realism and representing one of the most powerful late-nineteenth-century avant-garde trends is aestheticism. Its initator, Walter Pater, is mostly known and widely acclaimed as the theoretician of this innovative aesthetic movement. In this respect Pater‘s novel Marius the Epicurean is written in accord with the Bildungsroman, but,distinguishably in the sense of its thematic and narrative elements, the text differs from both socially and morally concerned realistic novel of formation. Even if Marius have found no appropriate philosophy and ended prematurely his life, nevertheless he continuously investigate and prove distinctive philosophical systems objectifiying Pater‘s unique aesthetic doctrine. To Pater, carrying the spirit to the fleeting chain of impressionisms in a powerful way is the keystone for a succesful and productive life. The aim of the present thesis is to explain the literary importance of the novel, reveal its non-realistic pattern and show the ways in which Pater follows the tradition of the Bildungsroman while relating it to the philosophical and aesthetic issues in many aspects.Viktorya Dönemi İngilteresinde özelikle gerçekçilik akımının öncüleri arasında en popüler kurgu roman çeşidi, kişinin geçmişten günümüze kadar gelişimini anlatan yani kişilik oluşum romanıdır. 19. Yüzyılın sonlarında realizme ve savunucularına karşı en önemli avangard trendi Estetizimdir .Bu yenilikçi Estetizm hareketininöncüsü olan teorisyen Walter Pater en çok bilinen ve en çok övgüyü toplayandır.Pater‘ın bu bağlamda en önemli romanı olan Epikürosçu Marius, kimlik oluşumunu anlatan roman türüne göre yazılmıştır,ama konusu ve öyküleme unsarları açısından metin hem sosyal hem de ahlaki açıdan gerçekçi kişilik oluşum romanından ayırt edici bir şekilde tamamıyla farklıdır. Marius yaşamı boyunca kendi zamanına uygun bir anlayış ve felsefe bulamasa bile yine de araştırmaya devam etti ve kendisinin eşsiz felsefik temelli estetik ilkesini ayırt edici biR şekilde somutlaştırarak kanıtladı. Pater‘a göre, kısa süreli izlenimcilikleri ruhunda güçlü bir şekilde canlandırmak başarılı ve üretken bir hayatın temel taşıdır. Bu çalışmanın amacı romanın edebi yönünün önemini açıklayarak,gerçek üstücülük şekline bakarak,dönemin kimlik oluşum roman türünü yazar felsefik ve estetik bir çok açıdan izleyerek bizlere göstermektir
"The Flaming Ramparts of the World": The Function of Lucretius in Walter Pater's Marius the Epicurean
No full textThe present article analyses Walter Pater' s novel
Marius the Epicurean (1885), focusing
particularly on the nexus between the story’s setting in Ancient Rome and its treatment of religion. Even though the abrupt ending of Marius’ s Bildung suggests that Pater had not yet succeeded in reconciling his aesthetic philosophy with a religious life in community, the novel encourages its readers to adopt an eclectic religious consciousness. By examining Pater’s references to Lucretius’s De Rerum Natura, the article investigates how Pater used the Roman poet to reinforce this message, and to react against the materialism of post-Darwinian Britain. Moreover, it shows how Marius the Epicurean incorporates and subverts some of the motifs that can be found in popular Victorian novels set in Rome.status: Publishe
Marius von Mayenburg and Roland Schimmelpfennig
No full textRoland Schimmelpfennig and Marius von Mayenburg represent a new generation of playwrights to emerge in the German-speaking countries in the late 1990s; other prominent protagonists include Falk Richter, Lukas Bärfuss and Kathrin Röggla, as well as Dea Loher and Sibylle Berg. In this chapter, the author clearly shares some of their approaches, as both revisit and reinvent key conventional dramatic mechanisms, yet from a postdramatic horizon. Fireface, mapped out key themes as well as the (European middle-class) universe that keeps appearing in Mayenburg’s work in a variety of permutations. In Der Hässliche, premiered at Schaubühne Berlin in January 2007, Marius von Mayenburg plays a scathing game with postmodern ideas of the ‘performativity’ of subjectivity and contingency of identity. These academic ideas, in the context of neoliberal capitalism, contribute to an all-encompassing commodification of individuality. In fact, all of Marius von Mayenburg’s plays transcend the hyper-realities of his scenarios into grotesque exposures of absurdities of middle-class life under global capitalism
‘Distance, however near it may be’: revisiting ‘aura’ on the axis between painting and digital technology within a Deleuzian framework of ‘becoming’
No full textThis practice-based research sets out to explore new ways of visualizing and conceptualizing the notion of aura in art. It departs from Walter Benjamin’s widely known critique of aura, the thesis of which is that aura as ‘uniqueness’ of an artwork decays with the rise of technological reproducibility. Benjamin affirms with the decay of aura also the loss of the transposition of religious projections of distance onto fascist politics. His thesis had a major influence on contemporary critical theory where aura is still approached with great reservations. These concern a relapse into religious structures, which mirror, so the thesis argues, the fact that aura has been, also in Benjamin’s ambivalent conceptualization, left ‘territorialized’ in a regime of transcendence in art.The main research question has been: What could aura mean for painting in the expanded field, especially in relation to digital imaging? The outcomes of this research are paintings, works on paper (both involving the input of digital sources), digital films and writings. The thesis develops a reading and visual ‘mapping’ of aura in the framework of Gilles Deleuze’s (and Félix Guattari’s) ontology of immanence where difference and its repetition as differentiation replaces the static metaphysics of ‘origin’ or ‘essence’.Splendor Solis, a series of book illuminations from the Northern Renaissance proved to become a major visual source for experimentation. Aura is introduced in this alchemical work as the ‘splendour’ of Becoming, the deframing power of the differential processes that accompany individuation. As a sensation experienced in intuitive art practice, aura affects and is affected by a field of interacting multiplicities and the potentiality of temporal differentiations, which reach beyond any ascertained subjectivity into virtual collective questions and problems. Aura suggests as an ‘echo’ of Becoming an involvement with affects, and the research follows strands between qualitative intense moments that activate a ‘wound’ and extend to what Deleuze calls a ‘wound that existed before me’, an experience related to the synthesis of future, which confronts an individual with its emerging double.Constructing, or ‘mapping’ aura as visuals on an axis that involves media of ‘uniqueness’ and digital technology gives those outcomes an ontological status of ‘simulacra’ or assemblages, far from the traditional associations aura would evoke. Touching both experience and experiment, so the thesis argues, aura in immanence can provide an access to the virtualities of the ‘new’ in art practice. The research introduces a visual scenario or ‘conceptual persona’ for intuition, which as method of this research folds both practice and writing. Friedrich Hölderlin’s unfinished play Empedocles at Etna, provides a metaphor or metamorphosis encompassing aura’s and intuition’s involvement with immediacy and duration.The practice documentation of the thesis reflects the strands of the research as plurality of its differentiations, allowing the dynamics of its method in action to reflect the dynamics of aura

Walter Pater’s Marius the Epicurean: a study of the novel major themes
No full textThis thesis is concerned with Walter Pater’s only completed, novel, Marius the Epicurean. Although the novel is set in the Antonine period of Ancient Rome, it is to some extent an account of Pater's own philosophical development, and I have considered it, first, as autobiography. After a discussion of the textual history of the novel, and its place in Pater’s proposed fictional trilogy, I have examined the philosophical content in more detail, tracing the course of Marius's philosophic 'Journey', and relating it to Pater's reading of German philosophy. I have then gone on to look at it as a religious' novel, examining it as a reflection of Pater's, anthropological attitude towards religion, and also as a reflection of nineteenth century religious controversy. Pater was looking for a 'religious phase possible for the modern mind', and I have attempted to assess how far he followed Arnold in replacing conventional religious belief by 'culture', defining, in doing this, what 'culture' meant to Pater. Finally, I have discussed Marius in relation to Pater's other fiction, tracing recurring themes, in particular the themes of death, the woman and corruption. Thus the thesis attempts to isolate particular aspects of this novel, and then to relate them to wider issues
