Schätzungsweise 60 000 tödlich endende Hexenprozesse in Europa haben nicht nur in Prozessakten Spuren hinterlassen. Im Bewusstsein der Zeitgenossen - und in der Literatur - blieben sie noch lange nach den großen Verfolgungswellen präsent. Wenn man sich das markante Geschehen heute ins Gedächtnis ruft, sind neue Einblicke in die Literaturgeschichte und in Konstanten des Empfindens von Bedrohung möglich. Dies zeigt das Beispiel Goethes Faust: Das Drama enthält nicht nur die bekannten Hexenimaginationen, sondern auch viel mehr historische Wirklichkeit als bisher wahrgenommen worden ist. Und weil es eines der besterforschten Werke ist, kann man es als Präzedenzfall für verschwiegene Spuren in der Literatur(wissenschaft) betrachten. In der Studie wird Goethes Wissen um die Hexenverfolgung ermittelt und dessen Manifestation im Faust rekonstruiert. Einerseits führt dies zu einer an vielen Stellen neuen Interpretation des Werkes. Andererseits stößt man auf beredte Leerstellen in der Literaturwissenschaft, die Sozialgeschichte rezipiert und schreibt.

The seventeenth-century Baroque synthesis of the divine-human relationship emphasized the primacy of the Christian God in the lives of all men as the basis for legitimate humanism. The Enlightenment of the eighteenth century tore apart the components, emphasizing matter over spirit and pushing God far away as a remote cosmic architect. In the first half of the nineteenth century, spirit prevailed once again over matter in Romanticism. This effervescent movement, opposed by a renewed scientific materialism, ended up fragmenting into utopianism, sentimentalism, psychologism, existentialism, and pessimism. The history of Romanticism is the story of an explosive creative force that always consumes itself.Such is the thesis of this ambitious historical and philosophical study, in which the author shows how thought and art forms from the end of the Napoleonic wars have left their mark on every aspect of the Western civilization we inhabit today. Its pages are a tour de force of cultural history as seen in a procession of influential figures-among them Voltaire, Rousseau, Kant, Marx, Schopenhauer, Nietzsche, Comte, Delacroix, Darwin, Hugo, Zola, Monet, Van Gogh, Kandinsky, Dali, Baudelaire, Verlaine, Malraux, Gide, Bergson, Maritain, Marcel, Bernanos, Sartre, Ortega y Gasset, Dostoevsky, Ruskin, Wilde, Weber, Freud, Barth, Tillich, Bonhoeffer, and Niebuhr.Modernity's accelerating dissolution becomes, in Fr. Steckler's telling, a negative apologetic for the truth of the Catholic Faith, which takes the whole of reality into its gaze and harmonizes the contradictories of matter and spirit, nature and divinity, feeling and reason, faith and science. Man is doomed to a cycle of experimentation, frustration, and skepticism so long as he runs away from the revelation and grace of God, which bring newness rather than novelty, freedom rather than frenzy.

Gustave Eiffel: Genius of Iron Works is Vol. II in the Gustave Eiffel Exploration Series.In order to do justice to the intricate features of his monuments, nothing less than full-colour illustrations would suffice; therefore, all three volumes in this series contain real life full colour pictures taken by the author himself. The French engineer Gustave Eiffel was an innovative engineer-cum-millionaire whose success as a builder of churches, bridges and railway stations emboldened him to apply his unique technology to the construction of many iron projects including the Eiffel Tower in Paris, France and the central support system of the Statute of Liberty in N.Y. Each of Eiffel's iron projects around the world has its own architectural beauty and its own fundamental lines of construction that were determined by its use. In this respect, his structural and ornamental projects have effectively and literally embedded their presence in the cultural landscape of the places and the countries in which they are found. Eiffel's choices on aesthetics, as well as the technical grounds for each of his iron structures, were inspired by expert calculations and an admirable economy of material, a crucial fact and significant achievement. As such, Eiffel indirectly redefined the post-Industrial Revolution term of "Triumph of Iron" for the modern age. He made use of advance knowledge of the behaviour of metal arches and metal structures under duress, including the stress of wind forces, which earned him the nickname "Magician of Iron." Eiffel's iron structures attract meaning--as an exciting art form--the way "beauty" and "strength" are harmoniously drawn towards each other. For Eiffel, those were pressing goals that would exalt science and technology and solidify robustness with elegance Due to Eiffel's German-Jewish heritage, the industrial look of his creations was branded as "nothing more or less than a German-Jew whose French taste was laced with disguised elements of his German-Jewish ethnicity. However, Eiffel was a Catholic and the attacks on his person were based on his parent's birthplace, religion and perhaps on some jealousy of his fame as the architectural engineer who designed and built the Eiffel Tower.

[headline]Explores a full spectrum of Gothic works broadly understood as queer, from the eighteenth century to today Queer Gothic: An Edinburgh Companion features sixteen essays that interrogate queer theory's intersections with the Gothic. By re-visiting the usefulness of the term 'queer' and pushing queer theoretical frameworks into new territory, this volume explores the ways that Gothic and queer work alongside each other: one as a marginalised genre and the other as a marginalised identity. Considering both major and lesser-known Gothic works, and ranging from the canonical (poetry and fiction) to the popular (film, video games, music, and visual and performance art), it offers queer and trans perspectives on a wide selection of Gothic modes, genres and texts from fiction such as Hugh Walpole's The Castle of Otranto to Jeanette Winterson's The Daylight Gate, films from Nosferatu to The Cured and TV shows including In the Flesh and Pose. [bio]Ardel Haefele-Thomas is the Chair of LGBT Studies at City College of San Francisco. They are the author of Introduction to Transgender Studies (Columbia University Press, 2019) and Queer Others in Victorian Gothic: Transgressing Monstrosity (University of Wales Press, 2012), and have published numerous essays on queer and trans Gothic themes.
