Die Bedeutung Augsburgs für die Rezeption von Humanismus und Renaissance nördlich der Alpen ist breit dokumentiert. Indes mangelt es an Überblicksdarstellungen, die die Ergebnisse der Spezialforschung zu einem Panorama Augsburger Kultur im 15. und 16. Jh. bündeln. Diesem Anliegen folgen die 19 Beiträge des Bandes: Unter Rückgriff auf neuere kulturwissenschaftliche Ansätze und einen Humanismusbegriff, der stärker als früher die kommunikative Interaktion von dessen Akteuren im Blick hat, stecken sie aus historischer, kunsthistorischer und literaturwissenschaftlicher Perspektive relevante Felder humanistischer Aktivität und rinascimentaler Kunstproduktion in Augsburg ab. Dabei deuten sie die Existenz einer untereinander vernetzten Kommunikationsgemeinschaft an, über die die verschiedenen hier vorgestellten humanistischen Aktivitäten in Beziehung zueinander stehen und die diese mit vergleichbaren Zielsetzungen betreibt. Auf diese Weise eröffnet der Band Perspektiven einer weiteren Erschließung humanistischer und rinascimentaler Kultur Augsburgs, die deren spezifische Signatur nicht allein in einem Set typischer Themen und Interessengebiete, sondern insbesondere in diesen gemeinsamen Funktionen und Wirkabsichten suchen sollte.

This paper deals with Michael Marullus Tarchaniota’s early childhood years marked by exile from the recently fallen Despotate of Morea, a short and unconfirmed stay in Dubrovnik and, finally, by his arrival in Naples. A vast array of heterogeneous sources have been sifted in order to elucidate Marullus’ life before his arrival in Naples, i.e. in the turbulent period marked with Ottoman advance into the heart of Europe. The second part of this paper deals with Marullus’ De laudibus Rhacusae , which speaks more about the broader political context than about Dubrovnik itself since inspired by the turmoil that affected entire Apennine peninsula of that time.

"Traditional Petrarchan and Neoplatonic paradigms of love started to show clear signs of inadequacy and exhaustion in the sixteenth century. How did the Spanish Golden Age recast worn out discourses of love and make them compelling again? This volume explores how Spanish letters recognized that old love paradigms, especially the crisis of the subject, presented an extraordinary opportunity for revising traditional literary strictures. As a result, during Spain's nascent modernity, literature took up the challenge to expand existing forms of desire and subjectivity. A range of scholars show how canonical and non-canonical Golden Age writers like Miguel de Cervantes, Diego Hurtado de Mendoza, Francisco de Quevedo, Luis de Góngora, Lope de Vega, and Francisco de la Torre y Sevil became equal agents of the sweeping ontological reconfiguration of the idea of eros that defined their culture. Such reconfiguration includes: the troubling displacement of "self" and "other" seen in sentimental genres like the pastoral or romance; the overlapping of emotions such as love and jealousy characteristic of the baroque lyric and dramatic production; and the conflation of axioms such as eros and eris prevalent in contemporaneous epic experiments. In uniting the findings of often surprising texts, the collection of essays in Goodbye Eros takes a pioneering look at how Golden Age moral, ideological, scientific, and literary discourses intersected to create fascinating re-elaborations of the trope of love."--
