دانلود رمان انگلیسی “بازگشت اسطوره خدایان در فلسفه و ادبیات رمانتیک”

On March 17, 1788, Christian Gottfried Kِrner received a letter from his longtime friend:
You’ll be pleased to hear that for a few days I shook myself free from the dust of my historical studies and threw myself back into the realm of poetry. On this occasion I made the discovery that, notwithstanding previous neglect, my muse has not yet forsaken me. Wieland was counting on me for a new contribution to Der Teutsche Merkur, and out of fear I composed something— a poem. You’ll find it in the March issue of the Merkur; enjoy it, for it’s quite the best I’ve come up with lately.
The contribution in question was “Die Gِtter Griechenlandes” (“The Gods of Greece”), written by the poet, philosopher, and historian Friedrich Schiller, then twenty- nine years old. Schiller had already achieved literary fame with his play The Robbers, whose publication in 1781 and inaugural performance in 1782 made Schiller an overnight sensation. Never one to back away from controversy, Schiller did not avoid exploring complex social, political, and religious issues in his work. Yet “Die Gِtter Griechenlandes” sounded a new alarm. The poem voiced a lament for the vanishing world of pagan mythology, issuing a call for its gods to come back. To the shock of his readers, Schiller did not hide what he thought was to blame for their exile: monotheism and mechanism, a belief in one supernatural being and a belief in one supreme law of nature. Schiller likely anticipated that his poem would cause dissension, but he could not have foreseen that his call for a return of the gods would help shape one of the richest movements of modern European literature: Romanticism.
