Byronism, Napoleonism and Nineteenth-Century Realism offers a fresh analysis of the nineteenth-century European novel, exploring the cultural images of Byron and Napoleon as they appear in the construction of ‘bourgeois heroism.’ Utilising a unique pan-European perspective, this volume draws together concepts of heroism with theoretically informed questions of form, particularly the role of the hero-protagonist and development of literary realism. Observing Byron and Napoleon as parallel entities, whose rise and twin fame cast long shadows in the first decades of the nineteenth century, this text exemplifies the force of personality which made them heroes. Even where they were reviled, their commitment to challenging moribund cultural and social values make them touchstones for all those who attempted to understand the nineteenth century’s modernity. Integrating the study of heroism in the nineteenth-century novel with key developments in critical theory, Byronism, Napoleonism and Nineteenth-Century Realism is essential reading for students and scholars of the bourgeois hero, as well as those with a wider interest in nineteenth-century literature.

^BAVAILABLE FOR FIRST TIME IN U.S. ^RThis work is a highly original analysis of how the bourgeoisie created themselves as the heroes of the literature of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. It is a systematic study of bourgeois literature which clearly shows the integral relationship between a social class and the ideals projected in its literary works. The idea of the bourgeois as hero is pursued through a brilliant reading of the major texts of classical German literature. The author focuses on opposing literary forms: epic and novel in Jean Paul's Titan; poetry and prose in Goethe's Bridegroom; tragedy and comedy in Lessing's Minna von Barnhelm. Schlaffer links these forms to bourgeois preoccupations with love, work, honour and money to show how the interests of the bourgeoisie as a class underpin and subvert its idealistic literary aspirations. This challenging new analysis demonstrates how literature can be used to interpret social structure, and also how the influence of social structure can generate deviation and ambivalence in literary themes and forms. In The Bourgeois as Hero, Schlaffer has produced a major new synthesis of sociology and literary theory in a manner similar to Luk·cs. It will be of great importance for students and academics, in modern languages and literature, literary theory, sociology and cultural studies. Contents: Introduction; 1 Epic and Novel. Action and Consciousness. Jean Paul's^R Titan; 2 Poetry and Prose. Love and Labour. Goethe's Bridegroom; 3 Tragedy and Comedy. Honour and Money.

The present anthology stems from the perception of a widespread and manifest uneasiness concerning the business of military intervention in our times. Indeed, the West is for quite some time engaged in a deep introspection about his military intervention policies in the years to come and reflects about this. What will Western military intervention policies look like in the future; what kind of military intervention policies is wanted and what kind of military intervention policies is financially, politically and socio-culturally possible and militarily feasible? The hypothesis pursued in this volume states that, in the foreseeable future, we may see a different kind of military intervention policy and intervention posture of the West that will lead to different military interventions. It may be argued that we are witnessing the dawn of a new era, the era of military post-interventionism.

The word "hero" seems in its present usage, an all-purpose moniker applied to everyone from Medal of Honor recipients to celebrities to comic book characters. This book explores the Western idea of the hero, from its initial use in ancient Greece, where it identified demigods or aristocratic, mortal warriors, through today. Sections examine the concept of the hero as presented in the ancient, medieval, and modern worlds. Special attention is paid to particular heroic types, such as warriors, martyrs, athletes, knights, saints, scientists, rebels, secret servicemen, and even anti-heroes. This book also reconstructs how definitions of heroism have been inextricably linked to shifts in Western thinking about religion, social relations, political authority, and ethical conduct.
