Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. This volume is devoted to the spheres in which conflict and rivalries unfolded during the Renaissance and how these social, cultural and geographical settings conditioned the polemics themselves. This is the second of three volumes on Renaissance Conflict and Rivalries, which together present the results of research pursued in an International Leverhulme Network. The underlying assumption of the essays in this volume is that conflict and rivalries took place in the public sphere that cannot be understood as single, all-inclusive and universally accessible, but needs rather to be seen as a conglomerate of segments of the public sphere, depending on the persons and the settings involved. The articles collected here address various questions concerning the construction of different segments of the public sphere in Renaissance conflict and rivalries, as well as the communication processes that went on in these spaces to initiate, control and resolve polemical exchanges. What were the contexts and spaces in which conflict and rivalries took place in the Renaissance? Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Die 15 Beitraege des Bandes fokussieren Heroinnen/Heldinnen, deren exemplarisches Handeln und/oder kuenstlerische Repraesentation die Moeglichkeit aufzeigen, die ubiquitaere moderne Skepsis gegenueber Heroen- und Heldentum die in vormodernen Epochen komplexer war zu ueberwinden. Sie verdeutlichen, dass die virtus heroica keineswegs nur maennlich konzeptualisiert wird. Die Beitraege loten aus, wie wirkmaechtig maennliche Norm- und Referenzmuster in der historischen, literarischen, kuenstlerischen und kulturellen Repraesentation von Heroinnen/Heldinnen sind. Zugleich zeigen die einzelnen Modellstudien aus je unterschiedlichen (Fach-)Perspektiven und auf der Analysebasis unterschiedlichster medialer Repraesentationen die Wirkmaechtigkeit der Classical Tradition, die fuer die interdisziplinaere Konzeptualisierung von weiblichem Heroen-/Heldentum vergangener, heroischer Epochen eine geradezu paradigmatische Rolle spielt.The 15 contributions of this volume focus on heroines, whose exemplary actions and / or artistic representations emphasise the possibility to overcome the ubiquitous modern scepticism towards heroism and heroes / heroines which was definitely more complex in pre-modern heroic times and highlight that conceptualisations of the virtus heroica are by no means only male(-coded). The contributions analyse the influence, prevalence and potency of male norms and references on the historical, literary, artistic and cultural representation of the discourse-inaugurating heroine en detail. At the same time, the respective contributions also serve as exemplary analyses of different forms of media representations from a variety of perspectives and research fields and traditions which illustrate the efficacy of the Classical Tradition, a tradition which plays an almost paradigmatic role in the interdisciplinary conceptualisation of female heroism / heroines of former, heroic epochs.

Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware -Die acht Beiträge dieses Bandes fokussieren das vielschichtige Phänomen Martin Luther in exemplarischen und repräsentativen Einzelanalysen aus unterschiedlichen Fachdisziplinen (Buchwissenschaft, Theologie, Rechtsgeschichte, Geschichte, Neulatein, Germanistik und Anglistik). Die heuristischen Leitfragen nach Traditionen, Kontexten und Umbrüchen explizieren dabei jeweils unterschiedlich konturierte und akzentuierte Bilder Martin Luthers, der sich kaleidoskopisch-proteusartig einfachen und allzu eindeutigen Zuschreibungen und Deutungen entzieht. Die Begriffs-Trias »Traditionen, Kontexte, Umbrüche« ermöglicht es, aus dem so reichhaltigen und vielfältigen Luther-Kosmos jeweils Einzelnes, Detailliertes, bewusst Ausgewähltes zu präsentieren, um damit sowohl Luthers reformatorischem Potenzial Rechnung zu tragen als auch seine Verankerung in den breiteren Kontexten der europäischen Kulturgeschichte nachzuzeichnen und kritisch zu evaluieren.Brill Deutschland GmbH, Wollmarktstraße 115, 33098 Paderborn 265 pp. Deutsch.
