The essay takes a systematic look at some perspectives on the study of Giosue Carducci’s relations with German culture, offering a review of the research until today, examples of case studies, and a reflection on possible future research perspectives. Among the various areas addressed is that of the study of Carducci’s translations from German, with remarks on Carducci’s role in the transfer processes between Italy and Germany. Among other things, emphasis is given to the relevance of investigations into translations not yet published in the National Edition of Carducci’s Works. The last paragraph of the essay gives an account of a first census of Carducci’s autographs that have become part of German, Austrian and Swiss collections. In particular, prominence is given to autographs now preserved at the Fondation Martin Bodmer (Cologny, Genève): a manuscript of the ode Su Monte Mario (whose traces had been completely lost) and a still-unknown autograph of the poem Per la proclamazione del regno d’Italia.

The following paper discusses Schiller’s interpretation of the German concept of Bildung, which appears to be a central term in Germany’s culture, especially (but not limited to) the educational realm. As Bildung underwent massive transformations and has been re-interpreted multiple times throughout German history, this paper will start with a definitory exercise trying to organize the dynamics surrounding the term. Secondly, a two-fold historical context – firstly regarding the wider political and social dynamics of the time and secondly, a more biographical approach focusing on Schiller – will be provided. These contextualizing efforts will be succeeded by elaborations on Schiller’s concept of Herzensbildung. The paper closes with a summary of key insights and further potential endeavors.

Stefan Zweig’s relation to the phenomenon of migration is indeed a complicated issue, which can be approached from at least three perspectives. Firstly, there is the biographic aspect: as one of the major representatives of the German exile literature (Exilliteratur), Zweig has one of the most dramatic biographies among the German authors in the 20th century, including his emigration from Austria to England and New York, then to South America, where (in Petrópolis near Rio de Janeiro) he died in February 1942. Secondly, migration is present in his fictional works, such as the short stories Schachnovelle or Incident on Lake Geneva. Thirdly, Zweig published, a year before his death, his book Brazil, Land of the Future, which, lacking fictitious elements, but including biographic ones, basically summarizes the history (also immigration-history) of Brazil and the main cultural features of his host country. Accordingly, the following paper is a brief analysis of three possible dimensions of migration in Stefan Zweig: biographic migration, including his voluntary and, later, his forced migration, finally fictional migration, i.e. migration as a subject of his works.
斯特凡-茨威格与移民现象的关系的确是一个复杂的问题,至少可以从三个角度来探讨。首先是传记方面:作为德国流亡文学(Exilliteratur)的主要代表之一,茨威格的传记是 20 世纪德国作家中最富戏剧性的,包括他从奥地利移民到英国和纽约,然后到南美,1942 年 2 月在南美(里约热内卢附近的彼得罗波利斯)去世。其次,他的小说作品,如短篇小说《沙赫诺维尔》(Schachnovelle)和《日内瓦湖事件》(Incident on Lake Geneva)中也有移民的描写。第三,茨威格在逝世前一年出版了《巴西,未来之国》一书,书中没有虚构成分,但有传记成分,基本上概括了巴西的历史(也是移民史)和他的东道国的主要文化特征。因此,下文将简要分析斯蒂芬-茨威格笔下移民的三个可能层面:传记性移民,包括他的自愿移民和后来的被迫移民;最后是虚构性移民,即作为其作品主题的移民。

The essay analyses the characterisation of power in Christoph Ransmayr’s novel Cox oder Der Lauf der Zeit. Specifically, power is analysed on its political level, with the social implications that it necessarily entails on both the human and personal level, showing the individual in charge locked in the solitude of his distance from others; and on its gender level, which is expressed in the novel by the subjugation of the female to the male. In conclusion, nature and time in the novel are highlighted in their function as obstacles to limitless power.

Through an analysis of Goethe’s essay «Von deutscher Baukunst» this study intends to highlight the programatic value of the same for the first authentically German cultural movement, i.e. the «Storm and Stress». The paradigmatic figure of Erwin von Steinbach, the ingenious architect of Strasbourg Cathedral, sympathetically overshadows that of the medieval architect Eudes de Montreuil, whose re-evaluation is due to André Thevet from a patriotic and idealized Renaissance point of view. This is a curious parallelism in the name of creative genius and it represents the starting point of an important process that was to lead to a German aesthetic and literary renewal intended to overcome foreign models, especially French, and also to a re-evaluation of Gothic architecture in a patriotic and nationalist key.
本研究通过分析歌德的散文 "Von deutscher Baukunst",旨在强调这篇文章对于第一次真正的德国文化运动(即 "风暴与压力")的纲领性价值。斯特拉斯堡大教堂独具匠心的建筑师埃尔温-冯-忻德巴赫(Erwin von Steinbach)的典范形象令人同情地掩盖了中世纪建筑师尤德斯-德-蒙特勒伊(Eudes de Montreuil)的形象,安德烈-泰维特(André Thevet)从爱国主义和理想化的文艺复兴角度对他进行了重新评价。这是一种以天才创作为名的奇特的平行关系,它代表了一个重要进程的起点,这一进程将导致德国美学和文学的革新,以克服外国模式,尤其是法国模式,同时也将导致以爱国主义和民族主义为基调的对哥特式建筑的重新评价。

This article focuses on the nationalistic turn that swept across the political and cultural life of nineteenth century Germany by looking into two events that are seldom brought together: the Germanists’ Assembly in Frankfurt, in 1846, and Marx and Engels’ Manifesto of the Communist Party, published just two years later. It explores the tension between nationalism and internationalism that runs through both events and that is still vividly present in our contemporary, after all, not so «Postnational Constellation».
