Description
Book SynopsisVolume 29 features articles on Anton Reiser; the legacies of German romanticism; Goethe's morphology and computational analysis; Goethe commemorations in Argentina; and Goethe's Weltliteratur in the context of trade with China, along with two special sections and the book review. Volume 29 features articles on Anton Reiser; the legacies and myths of German romanticism; Goethe's morphology as antecedent to computational analysis; on Goethe commemorations in Argentina; and a reconsideration of Goethe's Weltliteratur in the context of Handelsverkehr (trade) with China. Additionally, volume 29 features two special sections. The first commemorates an anniversary, Hölderlin's 250th birthday, with work devoted to "Reading and Exhibiting," compiled by Meike Werner. The other special section, on movement and edited by Heidi Schlipphacke, further explores research featured at MLA 2021 and revisits many questions of sentimentalism, visuality, and narration that are at the core of canon formation and eighteenth-century thresholds of modernity. As always, the book review section, edited by Sean Franzel, concludes the volume.
