Aeschine s (Ca. 390?314 B.C.), Athenian orator and polititian, was a great rival of Demosthenes (384??322 B.C.). He rose from humble circumstances and became powerful in politics because of his oratorical gift s. At first he opposed Philip II of Macedon, then later changed sides, arguing that resistance to Macedonian power was useless. Both he and Demosthenes were members of the embassy to Philip in 348 B.C ., and afterward Demosthenes bitterly and baselessly accused Aeschines of accepting Macedonian bribes. He was to have been joined in his action by Timarchus, but Aeschines prevented this by his oratio n Against Timarchus (345 B.C.). Aeschines defended himself well in his oration On the False Legation (342 B.C.)?a title also used by Demosthenes in his accusatory oration. The trouble between the orat ors grew and culminated in a dispute over a gold crown that the orator Ctesiphon proposed should be given Demosthenes in 330 B.C. Aeschines brought suit with Against Ctesiphon. Demosthenes replied wit h his sturdy defense On the Crown. Aeschines lost and was fined, and retired to Asia Minor where, according to Plutarch, he lived as a professional Sophist. This is offered as much for its manuscript interest as for it being an early printing. W120

Ohne den Schutzumschlag, sonst gutes Exemplar. - »Stehen wir etwa allein? Soweit ich hier im Lande sehen kann, sind alle redlichen Menschen . . . unserer Meinung zugetan.« Diese optimistischen Äußerungen Wilhelm Grimms aus dem Frühjahr 1838 nach seiner Entlassung in Göttingen sollten sich bald als trügerisch herausstellen. Ein Jahr später muß er erkennen, »daß man unseren kleinen Nachen, wo er landen wollte, zurückstieß«. Zwar gab es überall in Deutschland Sympathiebekundungen, aber die Regierenden konnten sich nirgends zu einer Einstellung der entlassenen Hochschullehrer entschließen. Besonders reserviert waren die Berliner Freunde der Brüder Grimm. Sie wußten, daß der preußische König seinen Schwager in Hannover nicht brüskieren wollte, und verhielten sich abwartend opportunistisch. Allein die romantische Schriftstellerin Bettine von Arnim kämpfte mit allen ihr zu Gebote stehenden Mitteln, um eine Rehabilitierung der Märchen-Herausgeber zu erreichen. Sie legte sich mit den bedeutendsten geistigen Köpfen in Berlin an und versuchte, Humboldt, Savigny, Ranke, Lachmann u. a. zu Stellungnahmen zu bewegen. Als sie erkannt hatte, daß selbst ihr Schwager, der einflußreiche Jurist Savigny, ihren phantasievoll geführten Kampf nicht unterstützte, wandte sie sich an den preußischen Kronprinzen. Er ließ sich sofort für die nationale Aufgabe gewinnen, und eine seiner ersten Amtshandlungen nach der Regierungsübernahme 1840 war die Berufung der Brüder Grimm nach Berlin (nach selbstgewählten Konditionen).

Viviamo nella civiltà delle immagini, e i nostri sensi vengono quotidianamente sottoposti a un bombardamento di figure la cui potenza di fuoco non ha mai avuto pari nella storia del genere umano. I tradizionali modelli interpretativi, incentrati sulla parola e sul discorso, sono insufficienti a renderne conto in modo adeguato. Oggi le ricerche che si raccolgono sotto il titolo di "cultura visuale" sono chiamate a rispondere a questa sfida: non per affermare un ingenuo primato dell'immagine sulla parola, ma per indagare parola e immagine nella loro azione reciproca, e nei loro condizionamenti storici. Jacob Burckhardt ha precocemente intuito questa costellazione di problemi: storico della cultura e storico dell'arte, ha insegnato a generazioni di europei che il vedere non si dà nella sua immediata naturalità, ma si forma nella storicità della percezione. Attorno a questi nodi problematici, insieme storici e teorici, ruotano i saggi presentati in questo volume: impegnati a illuminare ora il Burckhardt storico della cultura, ora il Burckhardt storico dell'arte, ora la sfera delle immagini visive ora la dimensione della parola e del linguaggio. Curatori: A. Pinotti, M. L. Roli.

br. Per i 200 anni della raccolta dei Grimm (1815), si è realizzato un volume sulla Fiaba, che è la parola essenziale, "originante" e generativa, "matrice" del pensiero vivente. Il volume prende in visione le idee guida del Romanticismo per incontrare le personalità di Jacob e Wilhelm Grimm, Clemens Brentano, Ludwig Tieck e Wolfgang Goethe, uniti dal medesimo interesse per il fiabesco esemplarmente testimoniato nella raccolta dei racconti popolari, quale forma di poesia. Un'ampia sezione è dedicata alla "Forma Fiaba" europea e al pensiero poetante partendo, dall'ampia riflessione filologica di M. Heidegger e dagli studi di Max Lüthi, e si conclude con la psicanalisi, nell'intento di salvaguardare l'essenza del fiabico. L'impatto simbolico della fiaba ha formato tante generazioni ed è importante farlo conoscere alle nuove e a quelle a venire. Ciò è di particolare importanza per comprendere la nostra identità e il nostro orizzonte simbolico come cittadini dell'Europa.
