Abstract

"Focusing on the ways written culture interacts with philosophical, social, and political changes, The Power of the Brush examines the social effects of an "epistolary revolution" in sixteenth-century Korea and adds a Korean perspective to the evolving international discourse on the materiality of texts. It demonstrates how innovative uses of letters and the appropriation of letter-writing practices empowered cultural, social, and political minority groups: Confucians who did not have access to the advanced scholarship of China; women using vernacular Korean script, who were excluded from the male-dominated literary culture, which used Chinese script; and provincial literati, who were marginalized from court politics. The physical peculiarities of new letter forms such as spiral letters, the cooptation of letters for purposes other than communication, and the rise of diverse political epistolary genres combined to form a revolution in letter writing that challenged traditional values and institutions. New modes of reading and writing that were developed in letter writing precipitated changes in scholarly methodology, social interactions, and political mobilization. Even today, remnants of these traditional epistolary practices endure in media and political culture, reverberating in new communications technologies"--

Abstract

Zu Pfingsten 1744 trat das Ehepaar Gottsched eine dreimonatige Reise an, die nach Danzig, der Geburtsstadt Luise Victorie Adelgunde Gottscheds, und Königsberg führte. Reiseanlass war der 200. Jahrestag der Gründung der Königsberger Universität, an der Gottsched seine akademische Ausbildung absolviert hatte. In den Briefen des vorliegenden Bandes nimmt der Besuch mit seinen Folgen eine vorherrschende Stellung ein. Die Briefe dokumentieren zudem die Entstehung und Rezeption von Gottscheds Schaubühne, Pläne zu einer Edition der Briefe und Werke von Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz anlässlich seines hundertsten Geburtstages oder den mühsamen Entstehungsprozess des bildbiographischen Fortsetzungswerks, das Jakob Brucker und Johann Jakob Haid in Augsburg unter dem Titel "Bilder=sal" veröffentlichten. Etliche Schreiben enthalten politische Kommentare zum Zweiten Schlesischen Krieg, gewähren Einblicke in die literarische Auseinandersetzung mit den Schweizern Bodmer und Breitinger und zeigen Gottsched als einflussreichen und hilfsbereiten Vermittler zwischen Autoren und Verlegern.

Abstract

This book reveals the importance of personal letters in the history of European women between the year 1000 and the advent of the telephone. It explores the changing ways that women used correspondence for self-expression and political mobilization over this period, enabling them to navigate the myriad gendered restrictions that limited women's engagement in the world. Whether written from the medieval cloister, or the renaissance court, or the artisan's workshop, or the drawing room, letters crossed geographical and social distance and were mobile in ways that women themselves could not always be. Women wrote to govern, to argue, to plead, and to demand. They also wrote to express love and intimacy, and in so doing, to explain and to understand themselves. This book argues that the personal letter was a crucial place for European women's self-fashioning, and that exploring the history of their letters offers a profound insight into their subjectivity and agency over time.

Abstract

Lucas Haasis found a time capsule: A complete mercantile letter archive of the merchant Nicolaus Gottlieb Luetkens who lived in 18th century Hamburg. Luetkens travelled France between 1743-1745 in order to become a successful wholesale merchant. He succeeded in this undertaking via both shrewd business practice and proficient skills in the practice of letter writing.Based on this unique discovery, Lucas Haasis examines in this microhistorical study the crucial steps and activities of a mercantile establishment phase, the typical letter practices of early modern merchants, and the practical principles of persuasion leading to success in the 18th century.

Abstract

Die Beiträge des Bandes analysieren frühneuzeitliche Personenkonzepte. Sie nähern sich so einer grundlegenden Kategorie der europäischen Geschichte, der sog. Individualisierung. Seit Jacob Burckhardt wird Individualisierung als Ausgangspunkt moderner Lebenshaltungen in Europa gehandelt und gerne als nicht hinterfragbare Einheit verstanden. Der vorliegende Band untersucht Formen frühneuzeitlicher Individualisierung, indem er diese in ihre einzelnen Bestandteile aufbricht.

Abstract

«Caro amico, ti scrivo questa lettera di mia mano»: così affermano gli autori medievali le cui testimonianze sono qui raccolte e analizzate. In un mondo in cui la maggioranza degli intellettuali non scriveva di proprio pugno ma componeva dettando a un segretario, l’ambito epistolare rappresenta uno dei contesti in cui la pratica dell’autografia e la sua rinnovata valorizzazione si svilupparono, anticipando la loro diffusione in età moderna. Le lettere contengono spesso informazioni sulle circostanze e le motivazioni della scrittura, offrendosi dunque come una fonte particolarmente indicata per indagarle. L’analisi dei riferimenti a casi di autografia epistolare all’interno di lettere latine scritte tra l’inizio dell’XI secolo e la metà del XIII consente di esplorare la consapevolezza che gli autori stessi avevano dei possibili usi e vantaggi dell’autografia, da inquadrarsi più in generale nella loro concezione della scrittura.

Abstract

L'ambition de ce livre est de proposer un regard nouveau sur le Guzmán de Alfarache et le Quichotte. Il adopte pour cela un angle d'attaque singulier qui consiste à étudier ces deux chefs-d'œuvre du Siècle d'or en regard de leurs Secondes parties apocryphes. Les Premières parties du Guzmán et du Quichotte ont en effet donné lieu à des continuations d'autres auteurs, parues respectivement à Valence, en 1602, et à Tarragone, en 1614, alors qu'Alemán et Cervantès préparaient eux-mêmes des suites de leurs romans. Si, de ce fait, l'entreprise littéraire de ces écrivains concurrents s'apparente à une imposture, elle comporte cependant une part remarquable de création : Luján et Avellaneda introduisent tous deux des innovations qui ne sont pas des maladresses ou des « erreurs ». De surcroît, leurs projets romanesques stimulent la créativité des auteurs originaux, qui sont contraints de remanier - voire de réécrire - leurs propres Secondes parties. C'est la fécondité et la richesse de ces différentes interactions romanesques que cet ouvrage aimerait mettre en lumière.
