This book traces the widely varying critical reception of Andreas Gryphius (1616-1664), the greatest German poet of the seventeenth century. This book traces the widely varying critical reception of Andreas Gryphius (1616-1664), the greatest German poet of the seventeenth century. Although his work was respected in his native Silesia both in his lifetime, and in the years after his death, his reputation was almost eclipsed during the later eighteenth century. However, new interpretations of him by Romantic authors, and an emerging ideological consensus about Germany's national literature, brought about Gryphius' critical rehabilitation and enhanced appreciation of the qualities of his work; being roughly contemporary with great English and French playwrights, his literary reputation became enmeshed in the nationalist and ideological rivalries of Europe. More recently, commentators have concentrated on the unique character of his poetic attitude. In this volume, the authors outline the trends of his reception in German-speaking countries and provide the background for his critical history; an epilogue deals with the question of whether he can be seen as the German equivalent of Shakespeare or Calderón. The book also presents, for the first time in English, extensive excerpts from Gryphius criticism, from contemporary commentators (including those close to the poet) to modern critics such as Walter Benjamin.

How do the first tragic plays of Andreas Gryphius (1616-1664) shed light on today's political unrest and religious controversies in the Middle East and the Caucasus? Frequent updates remind us that revolt, imprisonment, torture, execution, and beheading still transpire in these regions. Such reports unveil remarkable parallels to the shocking and detailed accounts offered by Gryphius in his first two tragedies. The neighboring powers of Iran, Russia, and Turkey continue to exert influence on nearby minor states. Regional conflict among religions and between forces vying for political power remains the same today as during the lifetime of Gryphius. Such discord also triggered the earlier historic events he drew upon in his tragedies to proclaim the vanity of a transitory world. His plays explore the themes of justice, both human and divine, and conflict in politics, religion, and society as revealed through the destinies of specific historic characters. They voice the tragic continuum of human folly. In 1646 Gryphius selected a remarkable historic event from the year 820, the murder of the Byzantine emperor Leo Armenius, for his first tragedy. His second tragedy, Catharine of Georgia, depicts the 1624 execution of the Georgian queen at the command of Shah Abbas I of Persia. Although these tragedies recapture events occurring eight hundred years apart, both deal with issues very familiar to contemporaries of Gryphius. Now, yet another four hundred years later, these regional problems continue to threaten world peace and stability. Because these issues underlie current news reports that reach us daily, the historical tragedies of Gryphius remain contemporary and compelling. The Stackhouse translations introduce a new reading audience to the first tragedies by the father of German drama. Although many important European works have become accessible internationally in English translation, the gems of German baroque drama have remained unavailable to non-readers of German until now. The time is ripe for Gryphius to emerge from the wings and appear on the stage of world drama! In addition to two five-act dramas with choruses, the book includes: Brief Gryphius Biography Introductions to both tragedies, with full text of Gryphius' sources, his informative "Dear Reader" letters, and other related materials Critical new examination of explanatory notes Gryphius appended to each drama Select Annotated Bibliography

Der Tagungsband eröffnet neue Perspektiven auf das Gesamtwerk des berühmtesten deutschen Autors des literarischen Barock. Im Zentrum steht eine zeithistorische, staatsphilosophische, theologische und wissenschaftsgeschichtliche Kontextualisierung seines Œuvres, das sich in einem spannungsvollen Feld zwischen christlich-transzendenter Perspektive und ‚säkularer‘ Zeitdiagnostik, zwischen theologischem Sinnhorizont und Realitätsbezug bewegt. Damit setzt der Band im Anschluss an gegenwärtige Tendenzen der Frühneuzeitforschung einen neuen Akzent innerhalb der Gryphius-Philologie, die diskursgeschichtliche Zusammenhänge vernachlässigte und einen zu revidierenden Dualismus zwischen theologischer und säkularer Deutung etablierte. Dabei spielen komparatistische und interkulturelle Aspekte eine bedeutende Rolle: Gryphius war auf seinen akademischen Reisen mit der rezenten französischen, italienischen und niederländischen Literatur bekannt geworden. Deren Rezeption durch Gryphius wird ebenso verstärkt untersucht wie das lateinische Werk des Schlesiers. Gryphius erscheint als Zeitgenosse tiefgreifender Erneuerungsdebatten, die er mit feinem Gespür aufzunehmen und in seinen Dichtungen zu verhandeln weiß.

Petrarch’s revival of the ancient practice of laureation in 1341 led to the laurel being conferred on poets throughout Europe in the later Middle Ages and the Early Modern period. Within the Holy Roman Empire, Maximilian I conferred the title of Imperial Poet Laureate especially frequently, and later it was bestowed with unbridled liberality by Counts Palatine and university rectors too. This handbook identifies more than 1300 poets laureated within the Empire and adjacent territories between 1355 and 1804, giving (wherever possible) a sketch of their lives, a list of their published works, and a note of relevant scholarly literature. The introduction and various indexes provide a detailed account of a now largely forgotten but once significant literary-sociological phenomenon and illuminate literary networks in the Early Modern period. A supplementary Volume 5 of Poets Laureate in the Holy Roman Empire. A Bio-bibliographical Handbook will be published in June 2019.
