Many of the most prominent German writers, among them Heinrich Heine, Ludwig Börne and Goethe, were active in cultural journalism during this period of increasing nationalism and clamor for a unified, democratic Germany on one hand and absolutist repression, including censorship, on the other. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis critical anthology is the first collection, in English or German, of major programmatic texts of German cultural journalism from the period. It provides complete texts or excerpts, many for the first time in English, along with critical introductions to each text by a leading scholar in German Studies or a related field. It reveals the richness and dynamism of the period's discussion of the status and function of journalism and its significance for politics, aesthetics, historiography and philosophy. Of interest to scholars in German Studies, media and book history, and those working on the history of political journalism, the book is also well suited for undergraduate and graduate courses on European literature, history and media studies.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eBaumgartner, Karin:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - KARIN BAUMGARTNER is Professor of German at the University of Utah.\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eTatlock, Lynne:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - LYNNE TATLOCK is the Hortense and Tobias Lewin Distinguished Professor in the Humanities and Chair of Germanic Languages and Literatures at Washington University in St. Louis, MO.\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eFranzel, Sean:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - SEAN FRANZEL is Professor of German at the University of Missouri.\u003cbr\u003eEt al...\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Camden House (NY)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51500834554130,"sku":"9781640141735","price":198.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_183f612b-5061-4975-a502-488daddc3e44.jpg?v=1753203083","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/cultural-journalism-in-germany-1815-1848-a-critical-anthology-9781640141735","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
